Tuesday Thoughts

The week is going well, but I have some beef to pound:
1.  If another website posts Olympic results without warning of a spoiler, I am going to scream and throw a hissy fit.  I logged out of my hotmail account earlier and was automatically redirected to msn where result for today's events were posted.  No warning, no "look away now if you don't want it ruined for you," nothing of the sort.  This makes me so unbelievably mad.  Ask anyone at school today, I. was. ticked.  Uggggggh.  I guess I'll just need to avoid the internet the next two weeks, as I am not a "I'll feel better if I know how it ends ahead of time" person like my dear Mama! ; )

2.  Why, oh why, couldn't we have had all those delays, early releases, and snow days this week instead of last so that I can watch as much as possible of the Olympics! (Warning: If you are already tired of seeing the word Olympics, you may want to ignore me for the rest of the month!  Although, if you don't love the Olympics, you may not be that sane of a person in the first place!) ; )

3. When the crap did Wallpaper become so dang expensive?  We are doing an accent wall in our bathroom and I have found several stunning, perfect options... except that they are $195/ roll.  You read that correctly... per roll! A little, 33 foot roll!  That's not even 54 square feet.  I either need to hit the lottery or lose my excellent taste in wallpaper.  Stat!

4.  One of my first graders asked me if I had kids, to which I of course, replied, "Not yet."  Another one quickly interjected, "Of course she doesn't! Her belly is NOT big enough to have a baby in it.  She cocks her head to the side as she checks out my stomach and then says: "Yet."  From the mouths of babes....

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a.  They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich.  That in and of itself made my day! : )                                                       Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day.  We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't.   We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics.  Can you feel the romance? Haha.                                                                                                     Yummy Whoopie Pie!                                                                                          My Valentine! Saturday morning began gloriously at 9:20 a.m. It seems like it's been forever since I slept that late, but it was wonderful!  I met my friend, Jennifer, and he

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas festivities started with Zach's family on Christmas Eve!  We opened presents and ate!  I'll let the pictures do most of the talking!  As you can see, Christmas is so more magical when there are little ones to spoil! : ) Mrs. Claus house shoes from Nana and Poppy!  Mmmmm, paper!  We got Zach's dad a long magnet on wheels.  We hope he liked it!! Haha, it was one of those gifts that was more of a necessity I think!  She was excited!  We are glad she liked it!  We got Zach's mom a record player that is a 5-in-1 system!  Isaiah's sweater we got him!  Its pockets are in the shape of monkey hands too, so I couldn't resist how cute it was!  He is a cute little monkey too!  Book set from us!  Love If You Give A Mouse.... series!  He is saying. "Ohhh, paper!  I love that!"  Make-up set from us!  He looooved the paper!  Isaiah opening his Leap Frog laptop from us!  He lik

Ten on Thursday

1. Zach is on Spring Break this week! Even if it is just from his one class, we still enjoyed it! I actually got to have him with me all last night! 2. I am almost done with my first week in third grade. So far, so good! The kids seem to really like me and I'm becoming rather fond of them as well! 3. I was working out last night and accidentally kicked Nellie in the side of her head. She is okay, but Zach may still be dying of laughter! I felt awful and was trying to pick her up as she was trying to scurry away from me. She must have thought I did it intentionally! Poor baby! She got lots of hugs and kisses after that though! 4. We have kept our sink free of dirty dishes for over a week now! This may not sound like such a feat, but trust me, when you don't have a dishwasher, it is! 5. Tomorrow is the "Spring Fling" carnival at my school. I am going to help set it up after school, which should be fun! 6. Warrick County School Corporation announced this past week that t
