A Few Things

First of all, I caved. I watched the Superbowl. I never watched this before I met my husband. But, every year -- we end up going to a party and having a fun time. So it works out well. I whipped up a super-American-football-ish dip in record time. For I found out about the party 10 minutes before leaving the house!

He forgot to mention it to me. It happens :) Good thing I'm flexible

I know everyone hated the half-time show. But I think this was much better than Bruce Springsteen & The Who the previous years. Yes, I like The Who...but not for Superbowl. I like "The Who" on my i-pod. I'd rather see Janet Jackson's boob than watch The Who (who are clearly past their prime....). I will also be honest & say I like the Black Eyed Peas. A lot. Especially Fergie. If i look like her at 36, I will be a happy woman.

I started a boxing class today - it went surprisingly well. I miss boxing - and hope to attend this more. It brings out the ALMOST non-existent tough girl in me. That hour goes super fast. 

I. Am. So. Ready. For. A. New. Week. Yesterday, I was hanging my head low saying "Can I just have a do-over of last week?" -- when I decided to just kick last week out the door and start over! New Week! New days! Good times!

I hope EVERYONE has a fantastic week!

PS -- I would like to make a big, loving, happy shout-out to my sister Lisa! HAPPY BIRTHDAY my dear sister! Hope your day was wonderful. You deserve it!

Thanks for the bday shout out! I did have a great day! It was nice to sleep in a bit and have a quiet day at home.

I actually enjoyed the 1/2 time show as well, except not the parts w/ Fergie - I actually can not stand her! But any part where she wasn't singing, I enjoyed. :)

And I don't think i know a single song by the Who!

The 1/2 time show was entertaining, I thought. The one part that did sort of annoy me is when Fergie was singing with Slash..and I just didn't think she sounded good and I couldn't understand why she was rubbing herself all over him. Other than that, not bad..

Hope you have a great week!

I watched the half-time show with your Dad and we both kind of looked at each other and sighed! It's not our kind of music but it was better than some I've seen! I remember when Michael Jackson used to perform and spent more time rubbing his private parts than singing! What has happened to our world! I thought they should do some super patriotic performance, but I'm from the old school. Music should sound like "music" if you ask me!

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...
