Ten on Tuesday!

I have been studying for the past 6 hours?? - And am losing my sanity. What better way to relieve myself than fill one of these out? It definitely is a fun way to distract myself from reading any more about Pediatric physical/psychosocial development!!


1. What animal should cease to exist? (Not including bugs. That’s too obvious.)
-Pitbulls! Some people may hate me for this. But I have a thing against Pitbulls. As we all know--I don't really like dogs. Last week, I was on a nice run in my gorgeous, family-friendly neighborhood. I was approached by TWO, unleashed, angry, dogs (1 a pitbull, 1 a pincher ....i think that's the breed...).

I was absolutely furious. People shouldn't own dogs like this. And if they do: lock them up, tie them up, keep them where they are safe!!!

2. What was your favorite thing about the beach?
-The smells, the freshness of the air, the fun of the sun, and the sound of seagulls. Everything. I love the beach.

3. If scientists found a way to allow dogs to talk, do you think we should implement it? Or should we just keep them quiet?
-I don't want to hear what they have to say.

4. How do you order your Starbucks?
-Venti. Iced. Splenda. Skim milk.

5. What’s worse? People who don’t know the difference between your and you’re OR people who don’t use smack their food?
Ahhh! I hate all of this. The whole Your/You're thing drives me up the wall. As does its/it's.

6. What CD can you listen to over and over?
The Brandi Carlile cds my sister, Lisa, burned for me! :)

7. What was the most surprising thing about college?
Hm....I was really surprised how much of a joke my 1st year of college was,academically. Maybe it was the classes I took?--but it was so easy. Kind of a joke!

I was also really surprised by how wonderful it is to be able to freely chose your friends! From Preschool-Senior year I was with the same 24 people day in and day out. I basically couldn't stand the existence of about 70% of the those people by the time I graduated. So I loved when I got to college--I could freely choose my friends. And there was such less drama.

8. What’s the best deal you ever got? (Biggest sale item.)
-I don't do well with sale items. But I just have to boast all my clearance Target items. I live for Target. I love the end of summer when swimming suits are like $4. (I have a love for swimming suits and winter coats)

9. Who is your role model? Why?
I have multiple! But I will have to say My Mom. She is a woman I really try to strive to be like --and make our home like she did ours. She is such a hard worker, loving mother, amazing cook/house-keeper, VERY smart woman, and one healthy lady!!! I'm proud to have her genes. I also look to my father in many ways as a role model. His hard work amazes me. I'm pretty lucky to have the parents I have!

10. What movie would you like to see that is in theaters right now? Why?
I have no idea what is even in theaters! But, as childish as this may sound--I really want to see the Scrooge movie coming out. "A Christmas Carol" is my favorite Christmas movie....so kind of want to see that!

However, going to the movies disappoints me these days. It's like $20/ticket. So not worth it. If I'm going to pay that much for a movie...I better get a reclining chair, personal waiter, and a glass of fine wine to go with that movie! ;)

Your (not "you're" ;) ) number 3 made me laugh out loud!

You are fortunate to have such wonderful parents...as am I. We're lucky, as there are lots of lousy parents out there. ♥

I am going to get a swollen head if I read anymore comments like you and Lisa wrote about me! Thank you! It's fun reading your blogs and getting to know you both better! Most of your answers don't surprise me, though! In retrospect, I think we should have had more dogs when you kids were growing up, but the ones we did have drove me crazy! I'm not a dog lover either!

Okay so I just stumbled upon your blog from Lisa's. You need to go add your links to the Ten on Tuesday post on my blog!! I didn't know you were doing them!

I agree - Target is wonderful. WONFERFUL! And pit bulls are not.

What is your color?

Green My favorite color ever! I have to control myself to not purchase too many green things. If I had no control, my house would be green. My kitchen would be lime-themed. With greenery everywhere. My bathrooms would be green. My bedroom would be green. You would all feel nauseated-green after entering my home. (So I don't have a green-themed home) Many things I love are green, such as: Spinach (I eat it a minimum twice a day usually) My weding color was green. (clover green) Limes (I have at least one time a day) Grass. I love the feel of grass, especially since I see it so rarely in AZ (except in my neighborhood that has amazing landscapers with grass-galore) Palm trees. Any tree. Christmas trees. I love Christmas Green Beer. I think the green beer on St. Patty's Day tastes better. My favorite color of eyes. When I was in 9th grade, I so badly wanted to get green contacts. But they made me keep my brown eyes. Diet Mountain Dew (my guilty pleasure) Granny Smith...

A weekend of the great outdoors

As I am preparing for my return to the real world tomorrow, I feel a strong sense of dread. As I won't have a weekend or free week for a long while! Instead of focusing on that.......I'm sharing a few snapshots from our awesome weekend! This weekend we were in Big Lake, AZ -- which is about 20 miles from the New Mexico border (just 5 1/2 hours from our house). (last weekend we were in Parker Canyon...which I will blog about another day) We camped from Friday-Monday, which was the perfect length of time. The temperatures were a great escape from hot Tucson. In fact...it was VERY cold at night. It was in the low 30's at night, 60's during the day. The trout fishing was incredible. Here's a few snapshots: Home Sweet Home for the weekend! Look at the giant tree I cut down!!! Wow!! (Okay, this was posed...) But...Ryan did teach me how to use a wood-saw! There were tons of dead/fallen trees lying around. So we cut all our firewood for the weekend! I felt very ...

One Confused Lady

Yesterday morning was packed with a session of cross training.....rushed home to shower and get professional-looking....headed across town for an interview.....kicked butt at my interview...."bopped" over to our house to see the progress of the build......headed to the "design center" to sign more paperwork.... (Side note: I cannot get over just how much paperwork is involved in building a house. Holy Hannah. And we haven't even closed !!! Iy-yi-yi....Those lovely people in history who got law-suit-happy.....God bless 'em.) Yesterday was a good day! So here's a little humor for your Thursday. A little thought. A little depth.....( A little cynical rant ) Afterwards, I decided to head to one of my favorite places to peruse.... Target. But my experience at Target was far from fun, relaxing, or pleasant. Just confusing. Loud. Crazy. Despite many screaming children-temper tantrums.... Which is common and un-escapable. Although screaming chi...
