Ten on Tuesday!

1. What is your favorite decor item in your house?
My Christmas Tree.

No, I do not have a Christmas tree up outside of the season. I'm quite strict about this. Advent only.

But, when my Christmas tree is up - I love it!

I also like our baker's rack and kitcen table. I realize this isn't "decor"...but, I like it!


2. What is your favorite hair product?
I like my Tresseme Hairspray. Nothing too exciting. But, it gets the job done. I don't invest much is hair products.

I also like my Loreal hair dye. Yes, I dye my hair. I'm that cool.

3. Are you a good dancer?
Hold on one second, let me think about that one.....

Ahhhahahahha.

Hahahahhaha..

No. I am as sqaure as a wooden box. I enjoy dancing. But, I shouldn't enjoy it - for I'm terrible at it. I did do ballroom in college- but...that's the extent.

4. You get some good news, who’s the first person you call?
My Mom. And Ryan - but Ryan is usually immediately involved in my good news.

5. Would you rather take pictures, or be in pictures?
Taking pictures. I often don't enjoy being in pictures either. ESPECIALLY the "random shots".. You know...when you're around those "picture people" who LOVE taking pictures of the "action". Iy-yi-yi.

Ryan used to work with this guy, who's wife does this whenever they're in public. I always try avoiding the room she's in -- so I don't get random shots of me itching my nose. Or taking a bite of food. That's not candid.

Awkward city.
6. What is your shoe style?
Either very neat shoes. No open toes. I like my toe to be rounded. With a heel.

Or Mizuno running shoes :)
7. How often do you eat out?
Our rule is once every 2 weeks. (Unless we're traveling or something).
8. If someone has food in their teeth, do you tell them?
Yes, but I'm awkward about it. Even with my own husband - I will like pull him in a separate room and whisper it to him. And appologize.
9. Do you fold your underwear?
Absolutely. I might as well iron my fricking underwear.
10. Milk, dark, or white chocolate?
Dark. Yum.

I thought you and Ryan did a smash up job of dancing at your wedding so don't be too hard on yourself! I used to love waltzing but after years of not dancing, because your Dad doesn't like it, I have lost the touch! It's sort of like playing the piano - must practice, practice, practice!

And you are a great dancer!! Don't sell yourself short there! You & Ryan had one of the best first dances I've ever seen!

I am posting this on both Lisa and your blogs today. Your great grandmother (our Grandma Veit) ironed her scrub rags. Honestly. And starched her pillow cases. I remember thinking my ears would be scratched when I stayed over night at her house! So, there may be something about neat laundry that carries down through the generations. Do you think?

You are a WONDERFUL dancer! I think video of your first dance would be a Youtube sensation if anyone ever posted it! ;)

I apologize because I am one of those "candid" picture takers...I promise not to post any of you scratching your nose on facebook! lol

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...

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 ...

St. Anthony, Where are you??!!??

So. Let's talk about my day so far. And why I suck at being organized. Do any of you know these people who always have it together? They never lose ANYTHING. They have a spare set of every important document, item possible. Every document has a file, every item has a place, every place has a label. They are always collected, have every duck is in the row. They live in perfection. This description is my husband: Ryan. My second question: Do you know anyone who's life is an absolute train wreck? They are always running in circles. They cannot be responsible for an important item if their life depended on it, because the strangest things happen to them. They never seem to be at the right place, or never seem to be on time. They cell phone often ends up in the refrigerator. There is always a giant debacle occurring. This description is me: Abby. Well this morning two people of this nature got to mingle a little. Well, they happen to be husband and wife--so they have to mingle withi...
