10 Things I Realized Today...

1. It's March. The 5th to be exact. I swear Valentine's Day was just a few days ago. Guess not.

2. Moving sucks. Especially to a house that needs a really good cleaning before you can start moving in. Add 3 kids (7,3 &1), & yea, it sucks.

3. I'm in a salad phase again. I figured this out when I wanted one for breakfast. Although that could have something to do with #4.


4. I'm newly obsessed with smoked cheddar cheese. Plain, with crackers or on a sandwich, it doesn't matter how I eat it. Although after #3, I have to say I love it most on a salad.

5.  It's impossible to save every single paper my kids will bring home from school. Pre-K, Kindergarten & into 1st for Paige (the oldest) & I have boxes upon boxes to go through.

6. I could really use a clone or a personal assistant these days. Between moving, school meetings & doctor/dentist appointments, it's almost impossible not to feel 10 steps behind.

7. I will probably never be able to sit around all day & watch the Twilight Saga (I've just recently gotten hooked. Don't judge.) Unless I'm super sick & in bed. Meh, I think I'd rather watch it bit by bit, here & there.

8. I want a Kindle of some sorts (behind the times, I know.) I prefer physical books, but I still want a Kindle. 


9. I really want to get more organized. Perhaps I'll add another project of getting organized Martha Stewart/DIY style. Sounds like a plan.

10. It really is almost spring, which means I need to start planning my "new" garden. Just no lettuce. That was a huge fail last season. But I will have everything else for my yummy salads. And an indoor herb garden too. Oh I'm getting hungry...time to eat!


Did you have any realizations today?

  2. Ok-- That salad looks amazing. For the school papers, you could take photos of the ones that are not MUST KEEP and make a photo book. When you are on your third child, it becomes too much to keep every paper.
    I love actual books, but I like my Kindle a lot more than I thought I would! I love traveling with it-- makes it so easy if I go through all of the books I brought to read!!

    1. I have never thought about making a photo book like that. Thanks for the awesome idea! Definitely going on my to-do list, starting tomorrow. ;-)

  3. Lol! I feel for you w/the kids, and moving. I only have a 2 year old, and moving is horrible. This post made me laugh because I can so relate to it right now w/the salads, and I too, would rather have the feel of a good book, even the smell of an older book when turning the pages.

    1. I love the smell of an old book, especially if it's a great story. (Vanity Fair)

  4. I am in a salad phase too! All I want is salads anymore and I've never been a big salad eater. What happened with your lettuce last year? I'd love to start on my garden but I think I better get the inside spruced up first.

    1. It just didn't taste good. I think the June heat wave we had didn't help at all. I don't remember what kind I planted, but I know that the Butter Crunch (I think that's what it's called) is good. Maybe I might try a bit of that this year.
