Ten on Tuesday

My friend Susie (and a bunch of others I know) do a Ten on Tuesday post. So, here is my first attempt at my own Ten on Tuesday. Unfortunately, it's still Monday, but if you don't read it 'til tomorrow then it will be right on time! Ha!

1. Today ends our several month long separation from......... THE FOOD NETWORK! Our cable company dropped it from their basic cable service so we've been pondering about what to do. It's our staple for TV watching. So, my loving husband did lots of research and pricing and we've decided to get upgraded cable from Dish. HOOOOOORRRAAAYYY!

2. I'm finally weaning our baby Tella. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. She, unfortunately, is not loving being cut off. She does, however, LOVE MILK ! good thing, otherwise I'd be in big trouble.....

3. I am having such a hard time keeping my hands off all the Valentine's Day stuff. Having a
V-day baby is just sooo fun!

4. I'm just now getting around to a New Years Resolution/Word for the year. This year it's
extraordinary. Like, doing things out of the ordinary... adding spice, unexpectedness (word?), shaking it up. Extra ordinary. This will be the 30th year of my life in September, so I'm thinking of ending the 20's with some extraordinary stuff. If I can think of stuff!!! Definitely up for suggestions!

5. Speaking of 30th birthdays, my friend Desiree is coming to visit for a few days. Her husband bought her ticket as her gift for her 30th. I'm really excited! It's been so long since any of my friends have visited from home! And, HELLO, it's hard when your two best friends live on the other side of the country!

6. Speaking of best friends, my other BFF -Brandy - is pregnant with her first baby. I'm dying to know what she's having but I've promised to stop pestering her. It ends here Bran, I promise. I am having fun planning out my gifts for her though. And I'll get to see baby Hogan this summer when we spend 2 weeks at the jersey shore!!! no, my jersey shore is nothing like the show "jersey shore". It bugs me that all those people are from NY claiming it's their place. My jersey shore is the best vacation you could ever take your kids on.

7. Tella's been trying to talk. Tonight she said "baby"!

8. I don't like Capri's ballet teacher. She's mean, rude, and cold. I'm trying and trying to teach my kids kindness and love, and this teacher is not exemplifying ANY of that. My lovely neighbor has a friend that teaches ballet, and we might just switch up.

9. Tonight is our HOA meeting. Though we've lived here 2 1/2 years it's only our second meeting. I'm bringing up that we have a RAT problem in our neighborhood, and a few other issues. I'm that nosy neighbor you see in the movies, I like it though, and so does my neighbor sarah who's just like me.

10. I secretly like Lady Gaga... I know it's bad. She's just so stinkin' catchy, and ummmmm extraordinary!

  1. Cute post. Love your word for the year. Extraordinary. Great one.

    I had to laugh that you secretly like Lady Gaga because I have a little nickname for her. ga-ga-gag me. ;) I do agree, some songs are catchy and they stick in your head, but I think she is just so weird. Sorry. You can keep liking her! It's ok. I'm a closet Eminem fan. (Except NOT his last cd)

  2. WOW I'm impressed by your ambitious post, haha OK, lets see....I didn't realize how long you had been cut off of the food network. YAY...on fixing that dilemma. Tella is getting to be a SUCH a big girl, weaning will be a thing of the past before you know it. I'm right there with you on the V-day baby, haha. It IS fun..the word for the year is perfect...I LOVE it...I am really glad Desiree is coming and I know you guys will have fun catching up and hanging out. The ballet teacher does seem to have a DEFINITE problem, I'd probably punt too, and I agree a rat problem NEEDS discussion, yuck...and finally Lady Gaga? haha If I don't talk to you again....HAVE A WONDERFUL TIME with Desiree!!

  3. O great idea for my 30th birthday! Thanks Desiree. I still have another year though, LOL. Which will be great because that gives me time to have the baby this year and by next year save up for us all to come out there. I love checking on your posts, its like I can hear you saying everything as I read it. The baby will be here before you know it, 2 months, 2 weeks and 1 day according to my due date. Love u
