Ten on Tuesday

I survived a very hellish, intense weekend. I feel like I have completed a marathon, or fought some kind of battle. We converted to a new system -- and we are almost clear and successful.

And I only pulled out HALF of my hair.

Taking a break from real world for a little T on T!

1. What temperature do you keep your thermostat on during the day?

During the day we aren't here -- so we set it to 82 degrees. It's running an avg of 105 lately (outdoors)....
2. What temperature do you keep your thermostat on at night?
73 degrees F. However, last night while my husband was sleeping...I turned it to 72. I was boiling, and I said "Screw budgeting!!!"

I know..how scandolous. 1 degree....
3. In a canister of mixed nuts, do you pick out certain varieties and leave the others?
Yes. Almonds and Brazillian nuts. I hate cashews.

4. What is your favorite kind of M&M?
Dark chocolate.
5. How do you buy books? (Amazon, bookstore, new, used, electronic, etc)
Amazon for my Kindle. I also am a big fan of the Library! Free books rock my world.
6. How do you like your eggs cooked?
Hard boiled. That's pretty much the only way I really like eggs.
7. Can you whistle?
Barely. It's pretty wimpy.
8. What common word do you always misspell?
Misspell.
9. Are you afraid of flying?
The only thing I fear about flying is infectious disease and screaming children.
10. How often do you go shopping?
Randomly. I haven't had a real shopping trip where I bought more than 1 item since February 27. I do grocery shopping on a PRN basis. (as needed).

Do you have a progammable t-stat? I am so glad that the weather is cooler now and we can open our windows every night! Sweet sleeping weather! Hope your's comes soon, too! My favorite eggs are hard boiled, but I never take the time to make them!

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...
