Odds and Ends

Some odds and ends...

-After moving last weekend, spending the previous weekend in Las Vegas, a visit from my MIL this weekend (starting tomorrow), and still adjusting to a new job (school, grade level) I am absolutely exhausted.  My blogging may be a little sporadic for the next week or so, but please stick with me, I'll be back in full force soon!  Also, I don't want to sound ungrateful, all of these are happy things, they've just made for a busy October so far.

-The biggest sigh of relief I've felt in a long time was when we moved and our entire 98% full DVR was saved on our cable box!  WHEW!  CAhusband and I were both ecstatic to see it was saved, and the cable guy definitely thought we were pathetic.  Please note that we had cable and internet up and running within 4 hours of moving in, but no gas or hot water for 72.  Boy, do we have our priorities straight! 

-It has been over 100 degrees all week and I've officially had enough!  It's nearly Halloween and I simply cannot take it much longer. 

-I almost wish I didn't have my yellow Le Creuset because the new ocean color at Williams Sonoma is gorgeous.  I really want some, but don't really like the idea of mixing colors... hmm?


-We started the week with a half-day on Monday.  We were luckily allowed to leave with the kiddos, but I pray we never start the week with a half-day again.  It mentally sets you up for an easy week, but it isn't!  The rest of the week just seems never ending and dreadful after starting with a half-day. 

-I quit working at J.Crew last week.  Although I hadn't worked there in several weeks, and hadn't worked regularly since last November, it was just wasn't worth it anymore.  I knew they were going to want me most every weekend once season starts here, and I'm just not willing to work retail on the weekends after already putting in 40+ hours during the week at my real job.  Although I know I'll miss the discount, I'm confident I'll still spend less money there now, and I feel a huge sense of relief to not have to worry about it anymore. 

Well I think that was a pretty pointless post, but I felt like I needed to put something out there for you guys!  I'll be back on Monday with some more regular posts.

I love that color of Le Creuset! Beautiful. I've been questioning the mixing of colors too. I have a pretty blue color but I love so many others!

I want a LeCreuset Dutch Oven soooo badly! It, along with a Cuisinart food processor, is up high on my wish-list!

the cable tv comment made me laugh. We have been out of TV for almost 2 weeks now, and I am DYING! And I don't even watch a lot of TV--at least I don't think I do. But I definitely like to de-stress with it after such a long day...

And I feel the same way. I have Le Creuset in blue, but every new color they come out with has me wanting a Candy Spelling type of pantry collection.
