Camera Workout: Week 9
March 5, 2013 § Leave a Comment
I do both of these things a lot lately…yoga, yoga, yoga, yoga.
I will never ever learn how to fold a fitted sheet.
This commercial makes me grab the camera and snap a quick pic as I’m passing through the living room.
My semi-gag gift to Andrew for his birthday…at $25 a bottle, it’s dang well worth a try! We had Andrew’s parents over for dinner on Friday and had a taste test. It would probably be ok if we hadn’t had it in comparison with this.
Trying to get ahead of the game by chopping up an entire cantaloupe for this week’s work lunches
Started this show over the weekend. Obsessed. So good.
Andrew’s pretty amazing birthday present from Kaylex…trying to decide what to have with dinner.
About to get down to business and do this blog post you’re reading right now. A reformatted computer that runs like lightning makes it a lot easier! Again, big thanks to Andrew for checking these things off the list his last week at home.
February

February. A pretty good month! Andrew got a new job, I bought allergy medicine for the first time in my life and feel amazing because of it. Same as last month, I did a lot of yoga, watched a lot of basketball and a crap ton of awards shows. Didn’t do much else. These past few wintry months have been especially lazy ones around these parts. I never thought I’d say this but I’m ready for warm weather! Eating and drinking outside, long walks with the Bagel boys, and no heat regulation in the studio (that is tough!).
Because music or podcasts pretty much follow me everywhere, here’s my current Winter 2013 playlist:
Also, it doesn’t hurt that in March I have a week off for Spring Break. Woohoo! Bring it on!
Camera Workout: Week 8

This junk drawer has been bothering me for weeks…finally put an end to the madness.
Poor Reuben got a bath…after a couple hours he finally forgave me.
Also cleaned out magazines…I’ve discovered that I’m kind of a magazine hoarder.
This is very true right now. Celebrated with giant sushi dinner out with the fam on Saturday…so many fun things happening for everyone right now.
Smoothie making…again.
I have a nasty habit of getting home from work and putting tennis shoes on to walk the dogs…without taking skinny jeans into account. I do not recommend this look.
Hope everyone out there is doing well..it’s almost March!??!?! WHA?!?!?

Bit of advice: don’t try to read this book while reading this book. You will get disgusted at a spoiled lady’s non-problems within three pages and have to toss it aside. Sorry to be so negative…
Got some new tech gear delivered in this pretty awesome box.
This outfit looks a little ridiculous once you get home and take your boots off.
And by the weekend, a grocery trip was desperately needed.
Realizing I’ve learned nothing from this exact same time last year. February must mean homemade skinnygirls in my book.
HOW is this possible?!?!?!?
I apologize for the snore inducing characteristics of my weekly photos…I’ve quickly realized my little life is not very interesting! Thanks for putting up with it!
Happy Friday Y’all!

Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday.
Totally spaced on a Valentine’s post for yesterday, so I suppose I’ll put a pic up today. My idea of true love? Arriving in a Scandinavian country where a beer cost $20, long underwear is required, there is only 4 hours of daylight, and your apartment is 300 sq. ft and then…getting married. WHAT were we THINKING?!
Happy Friday–hope everyone had a nice Valentine’s Day!
Things that defined my week: the horrifying realization that I have allergies, the Postal Service’s first new song in over a decade, discovering this list…whoa, didn’t realize so many great albums are coming out in 2013! Also, I don’t think I could have made it through this week without homemade smoothies–recipes coming up soon!
Enjoy your weekend.
Camera Workout: Week 6

This boy gets tucked in every night. We’re not sure why he’s so tired exactly…he doesn’t do much during the day either…
The curry candle is almost gone.
Our main laptop went kaput so this little guy has been getting a workout lately–10 years and still chugging!
A horrifying sight. One load clean and needs to be put away, another that needs to be washed. Why!!??!?!?
Not sure how or why this happened.
Putting my feet up, watching Mom prepare for book club. How rude!
A Valentine’s book club meeting.
Finally broke down and bought a real planner. I used to keep a very organized (maybe a little too organized) planner in college and have tried to use electronic versions. It does not work for me! I’m gladly going back to the stone age. 
My nails are “forever festive” this week. My hands are suffering from that wintry dry, lizard skin thing. Ugh.
Getting my parboil on for some stuffed peppers.

Pianos and books…why do I ever go to the library when I have this across the street?
This is what happens when you buy a shower cap (hey, my hair is getting long and it takes FOREVER to dry!)
Left on the piano after my Mom’s done practicing…
It’s totally fine to judge me.
We’ve been eating pasta A LOT lately…and I’m totally fine with it.
SNOW!
Sup dog.
We went on a grocery bonanza on Saturday. 
Looking after Andrew’s sister’s dogs for a couple days…what a big sweetie!
January

On the one hand, January has been rather uneventful. And on the other, full of super stressful waiting around (A’s job related…I’ll keep you posted).
I read four books (!), had a great time at work, did a lot of yoga, watched a lot of awards shows and college basketball. Andrew found me this song and I’m obsessed. Let’s face it, I’ve fully embraced my love of country music at this point. Things got real last week on Downton…why!?!?!?! Boohoo….I won’t ruin it for anyone who has not watched, but oh my lord.
I’m excited for February. Valentine’s…my Mom’s birthday, some new yoga teaching opportunities, the Oscars…
Ready to get on–how was your January?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Thankfully Andrew is the most wonderful husband ever and can fix things like this. New glass kit ordered and it was fixed in less than a week! Phew…
Gotta love a handmade thank you card from a three year old! Thanks Lilly!
About to get roasted!
I’ve recommitted myself to this cause. (Dog hair everywhere…for days)
This is what happens when you a) don’t brush your hair for three days b) decide that an inside out ponytail is a good idea and c) then teach a couple yoga classes. I’ve gotta start making some kind of effort with this hair…
Mid-Saturday afternoon cocktail experimentation. Thanks to this recipe! Yummmm…
Bagel had to bundle up to watch Sunday Morning…it’s been COLD around these parts!
Looking through Dad’s box of old coins, lighters, and photos. Fun!
My grandfather’s old Zippo
Keeping up with that first resolution! Great game. 
Phew! Already a month down. This is a bit of a daunting task, but it has proven so far to be super fun.
Happy Friday Y’all!

Wintry mix this morning…lots of delays & closings throughout the area except for where I work of course. Bah!
Had a slight freak out last night regarding my schedule…working day job, teaching 7+ yoga classes a week, blogging, reading, sweeping up dog hair?!?! Why?!?! Haha, just kidding. It’s all good things and I am excited about it all, but holy mackerel I need to get focused!
