Current Obsessions

What are you currently obsessed with?

I have this odd fixation on requesting free samples of pretty much any product I can get my hands on.  I have no idea when or how this began but I can't stop.  I stalk blogs and order them constantly.

The hubs and I are also currently obsessed with Breaking Bad.  I still can't believe it's the dad from Malcom in the Middle, ha!

Re: Current Obsessions

  • i'm obsessed with bagels and light veggie cream cheese haha.

    tv wise we just finished season four of BB. I heart Jessie Pinkman

  • Buying cloth diapers. J will be starting daycare in February and they have agreed to use cloth diapers.  So I've been buying the easier kind and the prints and colors are so cute!

    I'm really itching to go on a baking and cooking spree but I just don't have the time.

  • Stalking salvaged house materials or reclaimed items (ReStore, Philadelphia Salvage) and dreaming of places in my house to use these items.  Our "new" house is approximately 30 years older than our old house (1900 vs. 1930s), and the pieces that I adore don't fit in the architectural style of our new house. 

    Oh, and I'm always stalking new running gear.  I get so excited when the new models of shoes come out. Yeah, go ahead and say it..."she is such a dork!"  Geeked
  • Oh and I'm obsessed with yard sales too. 

    I usually hit up thrift stores to buy clothes for Jack but I have been scoring some amazing deals on clothes at yard sales recently. 

    Jack is also in the beginnings of the walking phase and I wanted to get him something to push around.  Mr.D and I were driving last weekend and I pointed and yelled and made him stop at a yard sale because I saw a little push car.  Scored it for $2!

  • Reading! I did it, I finally cancelled cable! Since breaking my addiction to that glowing box of crack, I've been reading so much more and loving it.

     

    I did, however, get a roku box so I didn't fully break my ties to TV entertainment.

  • NQ - I want to cancel our cable so bad!  It's such a time suck and so expensive. I would miss a couple cable shows but it wouldn't be the end of the world. Mr. D has strictly forbidden me from cutting it though

    The hardest part was pulling the plug. Now that it's gone, I really don't miss it. I can get most of my shows on Hulu and the others I can watch on my computer. I want to get rabbit ears for the local channels and then I'll have access to about 90% of the TV I actually watched when I had cable.

    Is there a magical age where you suddenly start to like gold jewelry? I hated it until this year and now it seems like everything I get is gold.

  • Riding boots...I've came to the conclusion that every fall outfit I wear looks best when worn with riding boots.  I have several pairs, but I wear the same pair like 4x a week.  I wonder if people look at me funny???

    Deftones White Pony.  Haven't listened to it in a while, but have had it on repeat all week.  I always forget how great it is. My co-workers, however, are not as impressed.

    All things pumpkin.  I can't get enough.  In particular, pumpkin ice cream.  Well, I haven't had pumpkin ice cream yet, but I'm hoping a trip to TJs will rememdy this issue.  Oh, and a Pumpkin latte from Starbucks.  I still hav yet to have the one full fat Pumpkin latte with whip that I allow myself each fall.  It's pretty damn glorious.
