"Spring " Cleaning

Yesterday, we woke up and decided to do some cleaning. I'm not going to lie- my pile of clothes in our bedroom had gotten ridiculous and I'm surprised that the dust bunnies didn't come alive, there were so many of them.

We got to the closet and my husband had the grand idea of really cleaning it. So, now there is a huge pile of clothes ready for Goodwill/E-bay. Too bad our "Spring" cleaning of the closet didn't bring us spring- it started snowing again here!

Anyways, I'm now checking the bids on the clothes I put up on e-bay every 10 seconds- not a very productive use of time. I also ended up binding on a jacket, so now I'm just hoping to earn that money back! :) But, really- it was a good deal- I promise!

Sunny-side Up

Well, we made it to Friday! Only 1 more report card to pass out for the year, no more parent-teacher conferences until next November, 4 more days until Spring Break...
things are looking good!

Speaking of Spring Break...here's where I will be in one week from today...


FLORIDA!!! I can't wait for that bright, sunny sun to hit my pale face!

Enjoy your weekends!

Sonic Saturdays

A Sonic resturant opened up in our town around Christmas time. The place is still crazy busy. It's pretty exciting that we have a Sonic since there are not any others anywhere near us- which probably sounds strange to those of you that are from other areas of the US, but really- it's quite exciting. Now, I don't have to see the Sonic comercials on TV and be angry that I have to watch it even though there are no Sonics by me. :)

On Saturdays, when we aren't busy, we've made our little treat to go have lunch at Sonic. I've tried a few different things which have all been delicious, but I really want to try some of their special drinks and/or desserts. There are just so many of them though and I don't want to pick the wrong one, so I always chicken out and just get a Diet Coke.

So...my question to all of you is...What is your favorite drink/treat to get from Sonic?

I think I'm losing my mind

Sorry for the lack of posting lately. Here's a brief run down of my life.

-Tennis started this week. I don't know that I've mentioned that I coach JV tennis, but anyways, it started this week. I love coaching but I really dislike the logistics of everything. Thankfully, the weather is cooperating so far.

-I've become addicted to Veronica Mars. My sister-in-law let me borrow season 1 and I just didn't have time to watch it for a while. Then, on Friday night- Dan was out and I was home "working" on school work, so I decided to pop it in. Ah, how did I miss this show when it was on!

-School has been crazy lately. Every time I turn around, there is something else to add to my never-ending list of things to figure out and do. We have 4th grade chapel to organize for Friday, report cards are due on Monday, and conferences are next week Wednesday/Thursday. You can pretty much guess what I'll be working on this weekend.

-Count down to Spring Break=9 1/2 school days!!!

Productive Saturday

Yeah! We got our new coffee table this week. Instead of our table that had a wobbly leg, we now have this table:
Today has been quite a productive day! I cleaned out my whole car. I have a really bad habit of leaving my car a complete mess. I'm pretty sure that I could live out of my car for a week or so. Or I could...but now it is completely clean!

I also went out shopping with my mom. We wanted to hit up the 30% sale at GAP/Banana Republic/Old Navy. I found some cute shirts for spring!

Now all I have to check off my list is 25 report cards...

Hey Mister DJ

I just had the best ride home in the car. Every song that came on the radio was a song that I love! Thank you DJ for reading my mind and playing my favorite songs all in a row while I was in the car.

We've Made it to Tuesday

I know that a ton of people have posted already about The Bachelor, but I'll add to the list...
I love the show. It has it's issues, but since my suite mates and I bonded my freshman year of college by watching the Bachelor/Bachelorette- I've been been hooked to the drama.

But really?! Was last night necessary? I had heard what was supposedly going to happen, so it wasn't so much a shock. I just can't believe that I spent 3 hours of my life watching that happen. Grrrr. I've heard that rumor that ABC set the whole situation up which is even more sickening.

Enough of that.

I'm now watching American Idol/Biggest Loser and trying to grade papers. I say trying since I have this horrible habit lately of leaving school saying that I will do the work at home and then the morning comes and the papers are still left ungraded.

Three more random things:
1. My keyboard works again! Yeah! Well, actually I got a new computer and have to send the other back...either way it is fixed.
2. I had my first taste of poutine while we were visiting Dan's family this weekend.3. I also saw my first bit of curling. Two very Canadian things and finally after 5 years of dating a Canadian I did these things. :)
