Curing A Bad Day With Wish List Making

I think I may be driving my husband crazy. He is going Christmas shopping for me soon and I haven't told him what I wanted. So I think it's time to look for things that I would like!

First of all is this adorable dress from Charlotte Russe. Would it look good on me? Probably not. But I love it none the less.
One of my coworkers brought a bottle of Dream Angels Heavenly to work and I think it smells amazing!

I recently ordered some more crocheting hooks, but I still don't have very many sizes. I think I would want this set so that I can just have everything taken care of. And not lose all my hooks!
Another thing I would just love to have is this fondue pot! Shawn and I ate at the Melting Pot while in Florida and it was fantastic. Never had fondue before.
I also want lots of picture frames. Lots of them. I love this collage I found at Target.com

Catching Up

I made a daily cleaning list for a reason. What happens when I don't follow it? The mess that I'm in right now. I'm serious, there is not one clean place in my house. Yuck. I am officially on clean up duty and have began by doing the dishes, kitty litter, and laundry. There is still tons to do but I'm off to a good start.

I should do more and I probably will later but I am just super tired from work. Everything went fabulous from 8-1pm 1-2pm another office bought us lunch and then after 2 everything fell apart. We kept finding one thing after another on one of my patients and what should have been a 30 minutes check up and cleaning turned into an hour long ordeal. So we ended up very behind. Thankfully my last patient is my favorite patient ever! She is this really sweet girl, 7 I think. She started to freak out at the beginning when we gave her teeth the "sleepy water" but she ended up holding my hand the entire procedure. This is the same girl who gave me a sneak attack hug at her last appointment. I am this close to kidnapping her and raising her as my own hehe. She is such a sweetheart.

We are finally taking our car in for repairs tomorrow. It's been a long time coming. See you tomorrow!

Workout Wednesday: Buddy System!

There are many ways to hold yourself responsible when you take the journey of weight loss such as a journal, counting calories, or a reward system. What do I think is the best and most fun way? The Buddy System. It's one thing to write in your journal what you've binged on or that you didn't exercise but it's another thing entirely to tell are person and get feedback. I think it keeps you more accountable! I challenge everyone that is going through this journey, like me, to find a person to confide in and share the journey! Plus it's fun! Do I have a buddy? I sure don't...

Do you want to be my buddy?

Truthful Tuesdays: Our Garbage Men Hate Us

My husband is very busy having a full time job and being a full time student. So I rarely ask him to do chores (except on weekends.) The only chore he's taken into his own hands is taking the garbage can to the curb every Monday. When he first started he tended to forget a lot, but remember when he heard the garbage truck outside. Then he would run it out to them.

This week as I went to work I noticed that the garbage can was already at the curb and I did a little cheer in my head that he did it Sunday night. I returned home for lunch and saw the garbage can was back up at the house. We were in the middle of eating lunch and watching a tv show when we heard the all to familiar sounds garbage cans being loaded and unloaded. I looked at him.

"Is that the garbage truck? Didn't they already come?"

Shawn looked at me then busted out of the house and drug the garbage can to the end of the driveway. Turns out that he brought the FULL garbage can back up to our house without checking! Silly silly boy. Then we watched as the garbage men argued looking at our house then drove off. Shawn was upset that they didn't take our trash and I just laughed. Afterwords, we got into our car for Shawn to take me back to work and noticed the the can was in the street now. They emptied it!!!

Thank you garbage man. You rock! Please don't hate us!

Follow My Crochet Journey

A few months ago I began to teach myself how to crochet and was actually doing pretty well. Until I stopped. Why do I do that to myself? I finally find something that I'm okay at, enjoy doing, and benefit from and just stop doing it. Much like exercising. Blah, anyway I'm going to start again. I only have one hook and a beginners book but am adding to my collection. Please join me on my journey! I plan on updating every Monday with what I have completed.
