Lame

Ugh, I hate it when you find something you bought and find it later on sale. I could have saved $35 if only I had waited a month. Why am I so impatient?!?

The bad thing about books on cd

I stop listening to NPR on my commute and I'm totally out of sync with the news. No idea what's going on until I check the news at work or online.

Needs to be a balance.

Sugar high

Sometimes I think my sugar consumption is too high. When I snack, they are all sweet, buying constantly craving salty foods, but only keep sweet at my desk at work.

The last two days my snacks have consisted of:

Dried mango
Peach Greek yogurt
Peanut butter snickers
Clementines
Honey stinger waffles
Dried apricots
Dried cranberries

All sweet! I really need to change my shopping habits.

Pho for one

I had a game at Thomas worthington tonight that was cancelled. I figured since I was in the area and it was before 9, I would get some pho. So here I am sitting alone in a full restaurant dressed completely in black waiting for my dinner.

I wish the hubster was as adventurous as I in our cuisine. One can dream right?

Glorious mental health day

The hubster and I decided to take a mental health day from work and most importantly from lacrosse. We slept in, went shopping, ate out, had a successful appointment and talk, ate dinner, and started watching season two of game of thrones.

I ended up returning some jeans I bought for the hubster and got a hat, sneakers for hubster, and a travel adapter. I also bought a bear cookie jar and a new light fixture. I still need another one of the same kind, but the outlet only had one. Will need to keep checking in to get the second one.

For lunch, we ate at probably the lone remaining Don Pablo's. It was terrible. The service was slow, the hubster got the wrong meal, my tacos were insanely salty, and his beans were atrocious. Good thing they comped his meal. We got city BBQ for dinner and it was glorious.

I would say mental health day was a success!!

Yay for warm weather

Woohoo, another warm day. The hubster and I invited some friends over for some burgers we grilled out on the porch. I had almost forgotten how good the steak burgers from carfagnas are.

We had the burgers with lettuce, avocado, onion, and bacon, grilled veggies, chips, pickle, and corn on the cob. Can't wait until the weather is here to stay and we can grill all the time.

A while back ago, I bought this amazing plush throw from Restoration Hardware which by the way is now referred to as RH.  Anyway, I love these things.  So much so that I bought another one because the hubster and I don't want to share.

I buy these as gifts for every occasion.  Housewarming, wedding, birthday, baby, everything.  And everyone loves them, raves about them.  I recently found out that they only carry them in the winter months and I wondered if I should stock up for upcoming events that would require gifts.  Well imagine my surprise when I randomly popped onto their site and saw them for $20 a piece.  They are $59 or $69 regular price.  I paid $35 or $40 for the ones I have.

I bought 6 of them...  a bit much?  I dunno, the hubster okayed the purchase.  We have at least one wedding coming up and one of ours needs to be freshened up a bit.

Excited about lunch

Not sure why, but I'm really excited about the lunch I packed: ingredients to make cheese quesadilla, avocado, tortilla chips, pineapple salsa, and sour cream.

Thanks pookie!

The hubster switched out my winter tires, changed the spark plugs, and replaced the valve cover gasket of my car. I helped! Sometimes I forget to say thanks and give my appreciation to him because he definitely saves a lot of money for us by doing these repairs himself. Gotta try and remember that.

Nap time!!
