Another exciting year is upon us! Yeah, right.

Last week was uneventful. Thursday night was cold and clear so we went up to Chris and Wendi's and had a bonfire. Good way to get rid of those Christmas trees and wrapping paper! Did some shopping and pho with Tif and Zoie on Friday - Nordstrom Rack was CRAZY!! The line was literally around the entire building. On the plus side, I found out they carry women's shoes in size 11-13! YEAH!

Spent New Years Eve with the hubster, eating pizza and watching movies. We're wild and crazy like that! The rest of the weekend was housework and weekly planning. Trying to get back into my Weight Watchers/exercising groove! I made several resolutions this year and I'm really, really going to try and stick to em'.

  • Spend less time on the computer and more time reading books.
  • Eat more food grown on trees and plants and less food manufactured in plants.
  • Sleep more!! 5 hours a night is NOT OK!
  • Be active four days a week, for at least an hour. 


News Article/Current Event -


Current Obsession -  I'm not super obsessed with anything in particular this week. I have been very, very into several songs though. I think I'm wearing the tracks off of my iPod. Kenny Chesney - Somewhere with you / Bruno Mars - Grenade / Jarrod Neiman - What do you want / Sunny Sweeney - From a table away / Far East Movement - Like a G-6 / Duck Sauce - Barbra Streisand. I'm one of those people that can listen to the same song over and over and over and over without ever becoming tired of it. Just one more reason I'm weird. Oh, and I find Bruno Mars oddly sexy. Just thought I'd throw that in there!

What I'm Looking Forward to in the Week Ahead - 
So far, the week ahead is looking like a fairly quiet one. Wednesday, Tif and I are headed back to the mall. I bet you'll NEVER guess what we're shopping for. MAKEUP!!! Who'd have thought? Here's what's on my list - Bobbi Brown Gel Liner, Smashbox In Bloom paletteMAC Select Moisture Cover Concealer, Benefit Girl Meets Pearl and possibly the Smashbox Master's Class Files. Good thing Mario bought me that train case for Christmas! But, too bad it's already full (until I get my Z palettes that is!) I have a Kohl's card to use also, so maybe I'll pick up some clothes while we're there.

Saturday, I've gathered up the gang and we're heading up to Snoqualmie Pass to do some night snow tubing. We did it last year and had a blast! I figured it would be a fun family friendly activity since everyone has their kids this weekend. Well, except us since we don't have any. LOL! It's a good excuse to do "kid stuff" without feeling like a creep. I'll post pictures next week - but here's a taste of last year.

Oh Mario and Evan!

Weight Update - Well, I gained back two pounds over the holidays. I'm not going to worry about it too much though. I'll get my ass on the treadmill and be back to losing in no time!

Neato Quote of the Week - Waste your money and you're only out of money, but waste your time and you've lost part of your life. - Michael LeBoeuf 

Texts From Last Night "Text of the Week" -
(603) Dude I got a text from you at 1:30 last night and you didn't use any vowels.
(1-603) Haha, I didn't want to buy any.... we're in a recession, you know.

And Finally, My Gripe - UGH. Whoever the jackass is in the neighborhood who's all of the sudden decided to listen to music at all hours of the night. I'm UBER sensitive to noise and nothing makes me more crazy than that incessant thumping of bass. Tomorrow I shall track whoever it is down and write them a strongly worded letter. If that fails, I'll call the cops. Yup, I'm THAT neighbor. HA!
