Tuesday’s Tidings for December 31, 2013

1. Happy New Year’s Eve!!! Today, is the last day of 2013!!! Eeeeek! Where did the time go? Our 2013 was pretty amazing. I’m very much looking forward to the New Year.
BTW-how beautiful does Gracie look in this picture? A little to grown up if you ask me. On second thought, I’m not looking forward to the New Year. Slow down, father time!

2. Something real fun happened this morning. Our shower was making annoyingly loud dripping sounds after Josh got out of it this morning. So Josh fiddled with it for a bit and now, we have no water coming out of our shower! Whaaaat???? I had to shower in my daughter’s bathroom this morning. I hope Josh can fix it fast. Thank goodness for two showers though.


3. I went back to the gym last night and you know when you haven’t worked out for over a week and you just feel heavy and slow on the machines? Yeah, that was me last night. According to my timed progress, I wasn’t actually any slower, I just felt slower. And it didn’t help that the gym was crowded and my favorite ellipticals were taken and I had to use the ones I don’t like. #thirdworldproblems

4. I went to Goodwill the other day and I came across a soup tureen. You guys know what those are? Here’s one from Amazon in case you don’t know what it is. Lisa, who hosts my cooking classes uses them sometimes when she is serving soup and I thought it was incredibly cute and fun way to class up serving soup to guests and family. Anyways, I found one and it’s really cute. The only bummer is, it doesn’t come with the serving spoon so I’m going to have to look for something that will work.

5. Speaking of spoons, I broke my pasta spoon a few weeks ago and have yet to replace it. I’ve only had it since I was 18 years old, so I guess it was about time to trade it in. Is there a brand you like?

6. Speaking of Goodwill, I came across this chair at our local one and fell in love. This chair is in perfect condition. No rips or tears or stains! Very comfortable and only $14.99! If it matched my decor I would of grabbed it in a second. I know I could of probably found a slipcover for it at Target, but oh well. I’m keeping my eye out for a smaller chair for over by our bookcase. But you never know what kind of treasures you can find at Goodwill.

7. I came across this Pavlova on Pinterest the other day. (What is Pavlova?) And I was floored by how beautiful it is! That is some serious photography right there I tell ya!

8. Since New Year’s will be here any second now, what is your resolution for the year. Last year, I resolved to lose all of the pregnancy weight I gained with Christian. Which I did! SCORE! But I’m not so sure what I should resolve for this year. Maybe I should resolve to resolve nothing, lol!

9. Downton Abbey starts up soon! I’m so excited! Josh and I raced through the newest season of White Collar that hit Netflix and we’re needing another show. Well, not really. We’re still dragging out Walking Dead, rewatching The West Wing for the millionth time, I’m watching Grey’s Anatomy in my spare time. But I’m ready for a little Downton!

10. Josh is really obsessed with the Doge meme’s and he told me that the “real” story of Doge just came out. So if your kind of obsessed with Doge too…well, here ya go!
