Ten Things Tuesday
1. On days like this when it snows, I lose all motivation to get dressed and leave the house.
2. I think the snow on the trees looks so pretty when it's freshly fallen.
3. I love Lily's fuzzy hair.
4. It reminds me of a little hedgehog.
5. I think I might have said 4 and 5 before on this, but oh well.
6. Emma has some footie pajamas and everytime she wears she looks unreal cute.
7. Our Christmas tree finally has lights on it and now it just needs some ornaments.
8. Cheerios have been my favorite meal of choice lately.
9. I love making Christmas cookies with my Mom every year.
10. It's really fun to sit and listen to Emma playing with her new dollhouse because she has such an imagination.

Re: Ten Things Tuesday
1. DH is out of town for a few days.
2. Last night I was a little freaked out because there were a few cars sitting outside my house. Cars I didn't recognize and the people were just sitting in them... I felt like they were casing the joint or something, lol. I was only worried because DH was out of town. If he was here, it would not have been a problem!
3. I have been sick for the last few weeks and I was up all night, last night, coughing...
4. DH is probably glad he's out of town right now... He wouldn't have gotten much sleep last night either (because of the coughing...)
5. I love the snow on the ground! It's so pretty!
6. I cannot wait until we get our Christmas Tree up!
7. I am going to convince DH to go with me to pick out our tree as soon as he gets home!
8. I am so excited to be going to see Wicked this weekend. I really hope that I'm not still sick for it...
9. I would love to get a hotel downtown for after the show, but they are so expensive!
10. I need to repaint my fingernails... they look crappy

1. I have been really unproductive at work yesterday and today.
2. I think I'm just so excited to not be super busy at work that I just don't do anything.
3. Also, I'm really tired today.
4. I'm really excited about Friday because I'm meeting my aunt and her baby for lunch.
5. I really need a baby - fix. It's been too long!
6. I need to decorate for Christmas.
7. And make my ornament for my nestie... sorry nestie... I hope this isn't goign to be late...
8. I'm making stir-fry for dinner.
9. I need to buy boot polish.
10. I need to polish my boots.
1. I woke up almost an hour before my alarm clock this morning.
2. I did some Christmas shopping on lunch today and bought DD quite a few things. I think she's done. I have a lot of other things to buy (for other people), so I'm going to have to try my hardest not to look at anything for her while shopping for them!
3. I think I'm going to buy DH a new flash for our camera for Christmas, but I'm afraid I might want to give it to him early so we can use it at our holiday events!
4. The snow was pretty this morning, just how I like it, it looked pretty on the trees & grass and the roads seemed dry :-)
5. I haven't been cooking much lately, but I actually did last night and am looking forward to leftovers tonight.
6. I've been having way too much cereal for dinner lately
7. DD is so sweet, last night she gave me the biggest hug and it just melted my heart!
8. I have been playing phone tag with someone for weeks and it's getting tiring.
9. I need to get out my scarfs & hats, I hate cold weather!
10. Whew, I did it!
I love this
Now I want Mexican!

1. I love looking at the snow on the ground over mud from the rain.
2. I wish there was more on the ground, at least to cover up the grass.
3. My plan to be more patient w/DD isn't working so well.
4. Her laziness is really pushing my buttons.
5. She always says "I can't get up" when she's on the floor, etc....
6. It's really a "I don't want to...." instead.
7. Why do I want a third?
8. DH is home for a 3rd week.
9. #8 should make me happy, but he's only home because he's still sick. I know that's no fun for him.
10. He's slept on the couch since Sun. night so he wouldn't pass it along to me or wake me the dozen or so times he coughs, blows his nose, etc.
1. My mood has improved from last week.
2. The dog show last weekend helped #1.
3. I am eating a burrito from Chipotle for lunch. yuummmmmm
4. My mouth is on fire from #3, but I'll deal with it.
5. For some reason I am not quite in the Christmas spirit yet.
6. There was a groupon today for a couple's massage. I REALLY want to buy it, but I'm not sure if I can justify the $$.
7. I love my FI. He is the bestest ever.
8. To thank him for being so great last week (when I was having such a craptastic week), I bought him a cupcake from his favorite place (Pronto in RO) and gave him a gift coupon for one hassle-free installation of Windows.
9. #8's coupon is because he likes to install and uninstall Windows (or other Microsoft products) on his Mac. I find it kind of annoying.
10. I have a lot of work to finish today. I better get going.
1. Work has sucked this week and Tuesday isn't even over!
2. I spent an hour and 15 minutes this morning standing in line to get through security at the federal building. I do not understand how they can move so slowly!!!
3. I don't know what was worse - the standing there wasting time, or listening to everyone around me b*tch and moan for 75 minutes.
4. Because of #2, despite arriving 45 minutes early for my hearing, I ended up being half an hour late.
5. Luckily, everyone else was late too, so it was ok. But the entire time I was in line, I was dreading getting yelled at by the judge for being late.
6. I had a meeting yesterday with a really hostile federal agent, and the whole confrontation had me upset all evening. I even had a hard time falling asleep last night because of it.
7. I really wish other people's hostility didn't affect me so much.
8. DH turns in his thesis tonight!!! I'm so excited for him to be done with this and I get my husband back.
9. I've been trying to think of something sweet and romantic to do for him to celebrate #8, but I haven't come up with anything.
10. I have a feeling rather than celebrating, DH is just going to want to take a nap.
1. Today we WILL finish wedding TYs. 5 TYs to individuals left to write, and then 18 to vendors - which I won't mind if we don't complete because they're not getting Christmas cards (and individuals will so I want to space them out).
2. I watched Sunday's episode of Dexter today while the baby napped. I'm fully caught up and totally ready for the last 2 episodes of the season!
3. I've been on hold with Oakland University for 15 minutes... I have to figure out financial aid now that I'm married.
4. The thing I don't like about winter is more gloomy days. Snow is pretty, but especially with some sun! (It's 3:30 and dark! What gives?)
5. I'm going to have leftover pizza when I get home from work. I'm going to a restaurant opening with my parents but that won't be until 8. Rusty Bucket, anyone?
6. School's over for the semester... but I still stress out until I receive my grades.
7. 2 weeks until I start making fudge! But first I have to buy a second pan from BBB. We only have one. That's only like, 5 lbs at a time.
8. I've been on the phone with OU for 20 minutes now. The kid that answered didn't know what to do so he's asking his supervisor. Oy. But since it's going to be saving me oodles of money (hopefully) I have to stay on the phone...
9. Now that I mentioned pizza, I'm getting more hungry. I haven't drank any water today... that's a problem.
10. The kid came back on the phone and said marriage doesn't change this school year's fasfa. However, you better believe I will file the first week of January 2012 for next school year!
1. I am officially Mrs. H's last name! I got my license in the mail yesterday
2. My boss wants me to be a notary public so I went to the Oakland County courthouse today to get the official stuff for that
3. I am determined to get my Christmas cards done this week... I think I may be over excited about this though.
4. A bunch of the gifts I ordered for other people came in the mail today! I was so excited to get the packages!
5. I made friends with our neighbors and I am excited to be able to hang out with someone my own age that I can just take 2 steps to go see
6. I made cookies yesterday then gave them away to the neighbors so that H and I wouldn't sit there and eat 3 dozen cookies between the 2 of us.
7. My boss from my old job invited me and my friend to a Christmas party and I am going to see a play in Detroit tomorrow! I am excited!
8. I made H a tie blanket for Christmas and the lady had me buy WAYYYY TOO much material. I am rather annoyed because I had an extra foot on each side... oh well maybe I will make a scarf or something?
9. I have a strong desire to paint my nails... maybe I will?
10. H & I bought a hypoallergenic tree (cross breed between a pine tree and an orange tree so it smells like oranges) because allergies to pine trees run in his family... well apparently I am allergic to said hypoallergenic tree.... Irony much? At least its just if I touch it, so I have an excuse to not help take it down haha
1. I know many people may disagree but I am so happy it snowed!
2. It would not seem like a real Christmas without snow! Christmas btw is creeping up on me!
3. Taking lovebug's Christmas pics tmrw. Hope it goes well! My new assistant will be helping- thank god for, help!
4. Tree is up and house is decorated, I
the smell of a real tree.
5 .Speaking of smells, fresh homemade Christmas Cookies and other goodies are a holiday tradition for me, need to start getting my lists together! .. YIKES! ( Did I mention Christmas is sneaking up on me? ) lol
6. When my lovebug seen our tree, she looked up and starting saying "WOOOOOOW WOOOOW!" it was halarious!
7. Every night I vow that I will go to bed early, and end up staying up late either editing or some kind of photography researching. One day it will happen.
8. I have never been the kind of person to be addicted to caffeine but the combination of meetings upon meetings with clients, at Starbucks...... and pumpkin spice lattes and frapps have suckered me in!
9. Mommy/Photography life keeps me on my toes, since I have been so busy and do not get out much, one of my good friends and I started a weekly tradition of going the movies in the evening.
10. Tmrw night is our day for this week and excited for some gal time!
