i'm kinda bored at the moment


1. a few weeks ago ollie got a hair cut. its been a little chilly so i got him this jacket since he weighs a whole 6 pounds of nothing!

2.  um why yes thats kaylee changing into her pj's in the family room.  she drops her clothes where she wants.

3. we're currently dog sitting ollie's girlfriend for a week. i can't complain because they will get him for about 12 days while we're gone to H.A.W.A.I.I!

4. meet up with a high school classmate of mine that lives about 20 minutes from me.  it was good catching up over lunch.  went to luby's- never been there.  it wasn't bad but not my favorite.

5. went to marshalls this morning and walked out with some stuff i didn't need. got 2 pairs of brook brother's dress shoes for $57! (ham said they must be ugly then. he's so funny!)

6. also got a few bowls and another white decorative dish.

7. then headed over to whole foods to look for some instant steel cut oats. i've been to every grocery store in my area and no one is selling it anymore- boo!  (don't like the irish oatmeal and i keep forgetting to make the regular steel cut oats at night)

8. while at whole foods i did buy some flowers (friend of mine gave me a crystal vase) and finally found almond butter that i like! ( it's freshly made)

9. did i mention that sprouts makes the best oatmeal, cranberry, walnut cookies?! i might have eaten a whole box in 3 days time.

10.  a nap is sounding really good right now. didn't get much sleep with having ollie's girlfriend over.

this and that


1. my close-up selfie after my hair appointment on wednesday. kinda bummed that it isn't the way i wanted it even though i had asked for a CUT and color, she was double booked.

2. i changed my profile pic on fb (wish there was a way to do that without having to announce it to the world) to this one and my funny brother asked if i had short dinosaur arms.

3. then said if i needed help with taking selfies to ask his wife which was funny because over the weekend, i nicknamed her aunt selfie. (she posts at least 1 if not more a day)

4. i'm dog sitting ollie's girlfriend for a week. hope she doesn't poop or barf all over the house. and i wish there was a way to train her to sleep in a little longer.

5. her parents are going to indiana for his work. this will be their deciding factor if they really want to move back or not because its cold and snowing!

6. wednesday night we met up with lonny and his family for some pizza and trivia at mellow mushroom.  pizza is still good and we still suck at trivia but its all for fun.

7. i made it to target twice this week. who am i kidding, i usually make it to target twice every week. (i've got 2 of them 10-15 minutes away in each direction)

8. because i save myself 5% off my total purchases by using the target DEBIT card.  if its stuff i'm buying why not?  tuesday i forgot to check out cartwheel but thursday i didn't and saved myself over $50 bucks! (flannel sheets, board games for christmas gifts etc...)

9. i decided i'm going to get a quote and see how much it will be for someone to come and paint the rest of the house. i've got benjamin moore revere pewter left over.

10. so the master bedroom, master bath, spare bedroom and laundry room will be the same as the rest of the house. they will also need to finish painting most the trim and doors. oh and cabinets in the bathrooms. YIKES! thats a lot of painting!

brain dumping thursday


1. this is kaylee's first day of school photo. i'm still too lazy and won't get my phone to load up ham's. he wouldn't let me post it on facebook.

2. mike said i should do it anyway but i'm friends with a few of ham's friends and they will tell him and then he won't send me any more photos of himself.  i still have at least 2 more years of school photos of him to be taken. (he's a junior but decided to change majors)

3. my grandpa jack was in my dreams last night. i miss that guy.

4. yesterday at boot camp we did time trials to see how much we've improved.  i'm happy to report that i kicked boot camp's ass and finished it. i came in 3rd in my group and my time was 6 minutes.

5. we had to run 400 m, do 40 squats, 30 sit-ups, 20- pushups and 10 burps.

6. we also had to see how many sit-ups, push-ups and squats we could do in 60 secs. i improved on everything.

7. we start a new session on monday. mike has decided to give it a try as well. just to change up his workouts.

8. ham texted me yesterday needing more money and how his car is not running right. i've dubbed him H.A.M = huge amounts (of) money! haha!

9. still dog sitting. i'm ready to be a one dog person again. 3 more days...3 more days....

10. okay, off to find something to make for dinner tonight.

wearing out her welcome, i have energy and a new roof

magic kingdom 2014

1. man am i tired. we're dog sitting and last night she did not want to sleep.

2. i think she might have worn out her welcome and her parents don't come back till sunday?

3. even though i've been up since 3:45AM- seriously!  i have lots of energy [from taking plexus] though my eyes feel a little on the heavy side.

4. i even got some work done. like heavy labor type of work. shocking! i know!

5. i want to expand the flower bed in the back yard to run along the fence so i carried garden rocks and dumped 4- 40lb. bags of dirt.  i stopped when i saw it didn't look right and couldn't figure out what was wrong.

6. the exsisting flower bed curves out and i want it to be 90 degrees- like the fence,  so i need to move some hostas and rocks around.

7. the roofers showed up today at 9 and they didn't leave till about 8:30. [there were about 6-8 of them]

8. i feel bad for them doing all that hard work and in this heat!

9. i might go and get them some ice cream tomorrow so they can cool down a little while on lunch break.

10. the new roof looks AMAZING! now if only i could come up with a paint color for the siding. [mike likes one color, ham likes the other and i like the darker one. kaylee likes all of them]
