Today I had a short break from tutoring so I decided to run home and get a quick snack. I left my purse in my car, so I just stuck my phone in my back pocket. Before leaving, I made a pit-stop to use the restroom. As I pulled my jeans down, out came the phone into the toilet...<br />
I left it for Wes to doctor and see if it was salvageable. I came home tonight and it's completely shot. He tried rice, blow dryer, whole nine yards. I've only been phone-less for about 8 hours and I've realized how addicted I am to my iPhone. I feel so out of the Twitter/Facebook loop!<br />
I'm hoping that tomorrow I'll be able to go to AT&T and get a new phone or see if they know some iPhone magic that can bring mine back to life. <br />
Oh, and did I mention both Wes's and my computers are on the fritz. Mine won't hold a charge and his isn't recognizing the IP address or something. <br />
Almost forgot, his shoddy iPhone too....his is the old kind and it won't hold a charge either. Knock on wood, my iPad is still working!<br />
We are definitely an Apple family but lately our luck has sucked!!<br />
Hope y'alls day has been better than mine!Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00919642573672908922noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1328441948736771797.post-78444157005185422412011-06-15T16:06:00.000-07:002011-06-15T16:06:40.562-07:00I GOT A JOB(s)!!I started this blog with the intention of keeping track of the events in my life being a newlywed. To be perfectly honest, there wasn't much worth blogging about up until now. Sure, I was subbing but that didn't exactly warrant many updates. Wes's job situation has been bleak to put it nicely. So, I just abandoned this blog before it ever really got up and running.<br />
Hopefully the great news I have gotten in the past few weeks will change that!!<br />
<br />
<br />
First, I was contacted about tutoring for the Ole Miss athletic department. (Very Miss Sue/Michael Oher ala <u>The Blind Side)</u><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://blackchristiannews.com/news/images/michael-oher-144.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://blackchristiannews.com/news/images/michael-oher-144.jpg" /></a><a href="http://images.allmoviephoto.com/2009_The_Blind_Side/2009_the_blind_side_007.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="133" src="http://images.allmoviephoto.com/2009_The_Blind_Side/2009_the_blind_side_007.jpg" width="200" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">And yes, I am even tutoring some pretty well-known athletes! It is really fun and a welcome challenge. I have 8 student-athletes a day and am helping all of them in the same class--Elementary Statistics. It has taken a little while for me to remember some the concepts--variance, standard deviations, z-scores, etc.--since it has been 10 years since I took that class. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: red; text-align: left;"><i>*Speaking of 10 years--my class (all 32 of us that graduated in 2001) had our 10 year HS reunion last weekend. I already had plans, so I didn't get to make it.*</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The other BIG EXCITING news is that I got a teaching job for the Fall!!!!!!!!!! After sending out what seems like hundreds of applications and resumes, I was called for 4 interviews. One of those was at a local school, and the other 3 were all 30 minutes to an hour away. Needless to say I was really hoping for the local school to work out. It is a <u>wonderful</u> school in an <u>outstanding</u> district. It was also the first interview I had, so I feel like I was not at my best because I was SO nervous. I went on the other 3 interviews and felt really good about all 3, but the driving was just going to be so much. I was actually offered 2 of the 3 jobs. I was able to bide some time and not answer one way or the other for a few days. Then, I got the call to come in for a second interview for my DREAM JOB! That was Monday. Today I was called and told that I would be recommended for hire as a first grade teacher at the next school board meeting! To those of you not in education, that is really just a formality. Rarely does a school board not approve a principal's recommendation. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.glassboro.k12.nj.us/7702046222350467/lib/7702046222350467/first-grade.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.glassboro.k12.nj.us/7702046222350467/lib/7702046222350467/first-grade.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">To say that I am giddy/ecstatic/thrilled/relieved would be the understatement of the century. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I will not say where exactly I will be teaching next year for privacy reasons...there are some creepers on the internet!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">But, stay tuned for more frequent blog posts. Kids make great material!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

I think I may bite the bullet and order some after my next paycheck. (Have I mentioned how badly it sucks to be living paycheck to paycheck? REALLY praying hard for both Wes and me to find full-time jobs SOON! Substituting just isn't cutting it.)<br />

I think I am leaning more toward the TBs. Shocker, I know! I really wish there was some place around here where I could actually try them on. I guess if they are huge on my face, I can always send them back. <br />

So to catch you up on life...<br />
<ul><li>Finished the 3rd grade maternity leave. I really loved it and so enjoyed being back in the classroom. I have a week or 2 off before the next maternity leave starts. I'll enjoy getting to spend some time with Wes (who has still not gone back to work. UGH!)</li>
<li>The Job Fair I went to a few weeks ago was not too promising. I was really hoping I would have gotten a good feeling about getting a job here next year. But, that wasn't the case. There were hundreds of people there for maybe a dozen jobs. </li>
<li>There is a rumor around the school I am subbing at that there may be a sixth grade position open next year. I would LOVE to get that, but as any of you who are teachers or work in schools know, you can't always believe what you hear. FINGERS CROSSED!</li>
<li>I have started posting a few OOTD pictures on Twitter. It is definitely out of my comfort zone. I am not always the most trendy dresser. In college, my friends would make fun of me for dressing like a teacher to go to the bar. And I sometimes dress more like a 45 year old mom, not a 28 year old newlywed. Follow me on Twitter to see (click on the button on my sidebar), you just have to promise not to laugh!</li>
<li>I am loving the fact that it's finally warming up and I can wear sandals! I need to rotate my closet and get some of my Spring/Summer cloths out of storage. I'm going to try to not overspend on new clothes and just work with what I already have. It'll be hard. I have already seen so much at Anthro that I want!</li>
<li>Wes and I have been doing P90x for about 3 weeks now. He seems to think he can already tell a difference in his clothes. Damn, men... But, I can actually do a real push-up now! That's a definite improvement! I'm going to stick it out and hope to see some results before I put this flabby body in a bathing suit! </li>
</ul>Sorry for the long post and no pictures. I left my computer at my mom's last week and am using Wes's so I don't have any of my pictures. <br />

A little catch-up:<br />
<ul><li>I started teaching for a 3rd grade teacher who is out on maernity leave. It's nice to be in the same classroom everyday and have more of a routine. Once this teacher returns, I'll be moving on to do a 5th grade math teacher's maternity leave. </li>
<li>Next Saturday, I am going to a Prospective Employee Job Fair for the local school district. I have already made some connections that I hope will help with finding a job for next year closer to home. (I'm driving an hour each way to sub). </li>
<li>Last weekend, Wes and I went back to Anniston, AL (where I grew up) to move my mom out of my childhood house. WOW-my mom kept <i>everything </i>I had growing up. It was nice to go through things and see stuff I had forgotten all about. </li>
<li>While we were there, I got to see my best friend, Megan, and her husband. I have missed that girl SO much! </li>
<li>I CUT MY HAIR!!! Susie (my hairdresser who also did my hair for my wedding) was so nice to work me in on Saturday. I will not let anyone else touch my hair. Guess I'll keep driving 4 hours back to AL for her! I don't have a picture of my hair because I'm on Spring Break and haven't put on makeup or done my hair. UGH.....And now Blogger won't even let me upload my inspiration picture! But, I took in a picture of Lauren Conrad when she had a shoulder length bob. </li>
</ul><br />
Since Blogger is not cooperating, I'll try again later. I promise I won't take another month-long hiatus.

I have let too many excuses (and not even good ones) keep me from blogging. I PROMISE to be better!<br />
<br />
Just to catch you all up:<br />
<ul><li>Wes is still unemployed, but has filed a claim with BP so we are waiting to hear back on that. He has also been told to just be patient because his complany is sure something else will become available in the future, just not sure yet what/when/where it mat be.... </li>
<li>I have been subbing a good bit and am really enjoying it! I have had to stretch my comfort zone a little--I'm used to teaching 2nd grade and have been subbing in 5th and 6th grade classes. These kids are as big as me! And I can't be as soft spoken as could with the younger ones.</li>
<li>Wes and I went to Orange Beach, AL last weekend to celebrate a friend's birthday. It was so fun getting to go away for the weekend and relax. It was COLD, but still lots of fun. </li>
<li>When I was subbing today, something terrible happened. We heard all the ambulances going to <a href="http://www.wtva.com/news/local/story/Choctaw-Co-bus-involved-in-accident/8xdBKwukfUidSQzKckB47Q.cspx">this wreck</a>. They were seniors from a nearby town that had been to Ole Miss for a career fair. My heart breaks for those families and that whole school system. </li>
</ul>So, sorry again for my lackluster blogging performance.

True, the timing of everything could have been better but we knew it was an inevitable thing. Wes lost his job on Friday (the day before my birthday).<br />
<br />
When Wes and I met in June 2009 (no we hadn't been dating long before we got engaged), he was working for a Norwegian oil company. He was contracted to them to do logistics for supply boats going to and from the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico out of Southern Louisiana. His schedule was 7 days on, 7 days off. He made great money and was never in a dangerous position like the people out on the rigs. He was pretty much in an office doing paperwork. Then, in April 2010....<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.thedailygreen.com/cm/thedailygreen/images/ZK/fire-deepwater-horizon-300.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://www.thedailygreen.com/cm/thedailygreen/images/ZK/fire-deepwater-horizon-300.jpg" width="200" /></a></div> He was able to continue his regular job for a few months (through the summer) because everything that was in the Gulf had to come back to shore. His company in Louisiana was luckily able to keep most of its employees in some manner. Maybe not their usual job, but they were doing something associated with the spill and clean-up.<br />
We knew it was only a matter of time before Wes's position would be affected. He was moved to Mobile around August (not sure exact dates) to coordinate the evacuation of the clean-up equipment if there happened to be a hurricane in the gulf. This was a 14 day on, 7 day off schedule---still do-able. <br />
After hurricane season, he was moved back to south Louisiana to work on decontamination of the clean-up equipment. (All these were office jobs and he was never physically cleaning) This schedule was more "work as much as you can and take off only when you have to". This allowed him to work a lot and we were able to save some money, but it was hard to be away from him so much. He was given 2 weeks off at Christmas and was unsure of whether or not he would be needed again after the New Year. Luckily, he was called back and got to work for another month. <br />
So, it wasn't a surprise that he got laid off, but it still sucks. Hopefully, Obama will let drilling start back up soon and Wes will be able to have his old job back. Oh, and YES he did file a claim with BP, so maybe something will come of that....<br />
This is going to be a blessing though. I am sure of it. It will only make us stronger as a couple. I look forward to what God has planned for us. <br />
<br />
Sorry this post was so long, but I felt like y'all needed the whole story. <br />

P.S. I'll have a birthday post later with some of the goodies I got!Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00919642573672908922noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1328441948736771797.post-60721008059218663002011-01-27T16:10:00.000-08:002011-01-27T16:10:03.154-08:00Birthday MonthI have always been one to overemphasize my birthday and turn it into my birthmonth. This year my sweet mom has had a gift for me every Saturday in January since my birthday is the last Saturday of the month this year. <br />
<br />
My first Saturday gift was a trip to the Mississippi Delta to go to all the pottery places. I love Mississippi pottery but have never been to any of the studios. We're planning on going to McCarty's in Marigold and Peter's Pottery in Mound Bayou. Of course, we'll do some good eating while we're there also!<br />

Last Saturday, I got a smaller sized Crockpot that I desperately needed. (We registered for a huge one and a tiny dip sized for the wedding but not just a normal everyday size for some reason). She also got me an Arthur Court Fleur-de-Lis trivet to go with my other pieces. <br />

When I got home today from subbing (I've been subbing everyday since my last post. I think I forgot how tired I am after teaching all day.), my gift from Wes had been delivered. He has hidden it somewhere in the condo. I'm dying to go searching for it, but I'm going to try to be good!<br />
<br />
Our plans for the actual birthDAY are pretty low-key. We will go to the Ole Miss/Kentucky basketball game, then like every other year we'll go eat Japanese. Ever since I was a little girl, we eat Japanese for my birthday. <br />

After moving and planning a wedding, it was just hard to dedicate the time and energy into finding a full time job. I helped my dad out in the Fall and helped at my grandmother's bakery from Thanksgiving until Christmas. I had been keeping myself fairly busy until January. I found out about 2 maternity leaves I could do so I applied for those but was called earlier this week to sub Wednesday-Friday of this week and 3 days next week. I have a feeling I will be able to sub a good bit for the rest of the school year. This is so exciting to me because I was really missing being in the classroom. </span><br />

<br />
When I was 20 I cut about 12 inches off and donated it to <a href="http://www.locksoflove.org/">Locks of Love</a>. It was something that I had wanted to do for a long time and went well over year without a haircut. I felt great after doing it. I had to get used to the shorter hair, but honestly it wasn't that short--just a tad above my shoulders.<br />
<br />
The other day I got to thinking about my last haircut. It was in FEBRUARY, y'all! As in almost a year ago. I remember it because it was the week before I got engaged. After starting to think about wedding stuff I decided to let it grow out so I could wear it up and have plenty of volume. <br />
<br />
I look young for my age anyway (people think I am still in college), and I know long hair does nothing to help the matter. I have enough length to donate again. Locks of Love requires 10 inches. Be honest with me....Should I do it??<br />

</tbody></table>I'm nervous!!! Please give me advice! Should I wait a few more months to donate so it won't be so so short? Or do I need to just cut it anyway and not worry about the 10 inches? I hate to be selfish about it bring too short when so many kids are without hair and could benefit from it....Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00919642573672908922noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1328441948736771797.post-29323858613515937162011-01-14T09:48:00.000-08:002011-01-14T09:48:21.716-08:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC-_q_-qaw-XRPCuf0DACHlzNLuQashoYqgsYfyKazDw1VGZKOV1fP-uXhdqUcpRa-EKqallfUOeF7rHxnK48xptjvfPWhANVHlexsTFVxV_e0mQdMPP0Ak4_7PEdERT7lOWqgYRvymMeZ/s1600/prissyandpreppyflamingo+award.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC-_q_-qaw-XRPCuf0DACHlzNLuQashoYqgsYfyKazDw1VGZKOV1fP-uXhdqUcpRa-EKqallfUOeF7rHxnK48xptjvfPWhANVHlexsTFVxV_e0mQdMPP0Ak4_7PEdERT7lOWqgYRvymMeZ/s1600/prissyandpreppyflamingo+award.jpg" /></a></div>Sweet Annie over at <a href="http://anniesadventures16.blogspot.com/">Classic Annie</a> gave me this award yesterday! <br />
I'm supposed to share 7 facts about myself. Well...here goes:<br />
<br />
1. I have never tasted mayonnaise or mustard before! I'm sure I've had food that had them cooked in, but have never put either on a sandwich or hamburger. Something about the consistency weirds me out.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.cfsauer.com/category_images/sauers_mayonnaise.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="97" src="http://www.cfsauer.com/category_images/sauers_mayonnaise.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<br />
2. I cannot STAND the smell of pickles! GROSS! When I was teaching and a student would bring in a pickle to eat for snack, I would make them eat it in the hall! Mean maybe but it had to be done. Wes likes to joke that when I get pregnant I will probably crave pickles. Ugh, I hope not! <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.norcalblogs.com/bullfight/archives/pickles.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.norcalblogs.com/bullfight/archives/pickles.jpg" /></a></div><br />
<br />
3. I danced for 15 years growing up--all the way until my senior year of high school. I took tap and jazz. Ballet was never my cup of tea....<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">**I <i>really</i> wish I could find a picture of one of my crazy costumes at a recital...</div><div style="text-align: center;">I'll look at my mom's and add that later!** </div><br />
4. I love manatees. Some people collect dolphins or elephants or rabbits...I prefer manatees. My aunt even adopted one in my name one year for Christmas when I was younger. His name was Floyd and he lived in Clear Springs, Florida. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.dirtygarnet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/The-manatee-a-symbol-of-peace-tranquility-and-effeminate-wonder..jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="271" src="http://www.dirtygarnet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/The-manatee-a-symbol-of-peace-tranquility-and-effeminate-wonder..jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<br />
5. The day I rescued my dog LuLu was one of the best days of my life! I don't even remember what it was like before I had her. It's silly to say but it's like when moms say that don't remember life before their children. LuLu is my child!<br />

6. I want to be a better cook. But I am such a picky eater it's hard to find things that sound appealing. <br />
<br />

7. I have bitten my nails my whole life. I am trying to get better by keeping them painted most of the time but when they start to get a little bit of length on them they break and I get discouraged and start biting again...<br />

It was my "wedding dress fund". Psycho because I had no real prospect for a husband at the time? Possibly....but it was easy to throw my coins in there at the end of the day and see it <i>slowly</i> fill up. I did that for 5 years through undergrad and graduate school. When I moved back to AL after college, it was HEAVY! When I actually got engaged, it became more of a reality and I really started to think about the money I was putting in there. When it came time to schedule dress appointments, my mom and I drug it out and started rolling the coins. It took us a whole weekend, but in the end I had almost $2000!!!! And it was money I never missed because it was just loose change. <br />
<br />
Now that I don't need a wedding dress fund anymore, I have changed my jug's purpose---It is now our down-payment fund for when we can finally buy a real house and get out of this condo. We just started, but I know that it will add up! <br />
<br />

<br />

This summer when I moved into Wes's condo I tried to feminize/update it a little bit. This place was a shrine to all things Ole Miss. Don't get me wrong, l love Ole Miss too, I just don't want to <b>live</b> in it. I took down all the Rebel paraphernalia and painted the kitchen, living room, dining room, and master bed and bath. And when I say I painted it, I mean <u><i><b>I</b></i></u> painted it. Wes "doesn't paint" as he put it. He thought it was fine the way it was...trust me it wasn't! I didn't even take any before pictures because I didn't want documentation of the ugliness that he let himself live in.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://common1.csnimages.com/lf/1/hash/7952/2879732/1/Championship-Home-Accessories-Ole-Miss-Rebels-Shower-Curtain.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br />
</a></div>For some reason I never got around to painting the guest bedroom and bathroom. I had already changed out the bedding and shower curtain/bath mats (you may not believe me when I say this but that boy had an OLE MISS shower curtain and bath mat....you can't make this stuff up. This 33 year old MAN decorated as if he lived in a dorm room). <br />

Sunday night, the SNOW came! I had been hearing all week that it was going to snow, but we hear that a lot and it never really happens. So I honestly didn't believe it was coming. Color me wrong, cause it came! It is was so pretty (and still is at the moment, we'll see how long it lasts). Here are a few pics I snapped around the condo.<br />

I want to go on another honeymoon....Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00919642573672908922noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1328441948736771797.post-49683180255709518412011-01-06T18:56:00.000-08:002011-01-06T18:56:24.711-08:00VampiresI have debated confessing my "love" for vampires for a few weeks. I guess I might as well get it out there. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><i>My name is Lyndsey, and I like Vampire shows/movies/books. </i></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">I was skeptical of the whole <i>Twilight</i> thing when it first got popular. I heard how fabulous the books were, but I was an adult. What would that look like? To be reading the same books some of the 4th graders at my school were reading?? I think not. Then, the first Twilight movie came out and I guess I got caught up in all the hype because I bought the first book. I read it in a weekend and loved it! I never admitted to anyone I had read it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theviewpointinn.com/images/twilightimages/twilight_book.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://www.theviewpointinn.com/images/twilightimages/twilight_book.jpg" width="133" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;">I never even saw the movie until I could secretly add it to my Netflix queue and watch it in private. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://twilightguide.com/tg/wp-content/themes/Aspire/graphics/cat/twilight-movie-posters/twilight-movie-cullens.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://twilightguide.com/tg/wp-content/themes/Aspire/graphics/cat/twilight-movie-posters/twilight-movie-cullens.jpg" width="133" /></a></div>It was ok...but i just had to read the second (and third and fourth) book before the next movie came out. I sped through Books 2 and 3.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.coverbrowser.com/image/bestsellers-2007/3-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><a href="http://images.51eng.com/products/NewMoonTheTwilightSagaB432_f.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://images.51eng.com/products/NewMoonTheTwilightSagaB432_f.jpg" width="133" /></a><img border="0" height="200" src="http://www.coverbrowser.com/image/bestsellers-2007/3-1.jpg" width="131" /></div><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">Then, I kinda got stuck on the last one. I don't know if my timing was off and reading it when I didn't have the time to devote to it or if it was hard to get into it because of how out-there it was. As if the previous ones had been completely believable...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41NoHgSmqlL.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41NoHgSmqlL.jpg" width="170" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Then, this summer I broke away from the teeny-bopper vamps and got into <i>True Blood </i>on HBO<i>. WOW!!! </i>I just <b>thought</b> Twilight was good. Sookie and Bill are intense! I literally watched 2 seasons in 2 weeks so I could get caught up and catch up on what had already aired of season 3. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://tvgorge.com/images/headers/header_True-Blood.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="105" src="http://tvgorge.com/images/headers/header_True-Blood.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Then, a few weeks ago, something drew me to The Vampire Diaries on Netflix. I added the first season to my queue thinking I would watch it while Wes was gone to work for so long. I got the first disk and reluctantly slid it in the DVD player. I was instantly hooked! Flew through that disk and all the others as soon as they appeared in the mailbox. I was so sad when season 1 was over that I bought a season pass on iTunes so i could catch up with season 2 and pick back up with the new shows once they started airing in January. That took about....3 days. SO GOOD! It's a nice mix between the teenage drama of Twilight with some of the grit of True Blood. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.bscreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/vampire-diaries-season-2-promo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://www.bscreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/vampire-diaries-season-2-promo.jpg" width="150" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Now, don't get me wrong...I don't do the "memorabilia". I don't flaunt this. The fact that this post is even being published is a big step. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So, please tell me I am not alone.....</div><br />

But, this year I need to make some changes in my life anyway, so what better time than 1.1.11. <br />
<br />
1. No more caffeine! I have a bad Diet Coke habit (some may say more of an addiction). I have to have one ASAP when I wake up. Before shower, before brushing teeth. Only thing that takes precedence is taking LuLu out. It was nothing for me to drink 6 cans a day. That's just not a healthy habit. I drink water also, but not enough to cancel out the amount of sodium and other chemicals in a DC. I made it through Day #1 successfully, but I have been warned that the headaches will come. <br />
<br />
2. P90x. I bought P90x before the wedding but with all the stress of planning and moving it got pushed to the back-burner. I really want to follow the program to the T. I'm going to start on Monday so I can do it right and hopefully get on a regular routine. <br />
<br />
Have any of y'all done either of these things? What were your experiences? <br />
Did you make a New Year's resolution this year? <br />
<br />
On another not...Were you all forced to watch football with your guys ALL day tody like I was?? I love football and sports as much as any girl, but enough is enough!!!Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00919642573672908922noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1328441948736771797.post-40620965681469800202010-12-31T17:39:00.000-08:002010-12-31T17:39:50.966-08:00Low Key New YearWes and I had plans to have a big New Year's Eve with some friends, but those plans fell through. Honestly, I was secretly happy! For the past few years we have always spent New Year's at an Ole Miss bowl game. This year, that wasn't an option. Instead, we decided to grill out with my dad and his fiancé. It was low key and pretty great! As I have gotten older, the whole "going out" thing has lost it's appeal. My college-aged self is cringing at my upper-20s self at this very moment! Speaking of upper-20s....tomorrow officially begins my birthday month--my 28th birthday month to be exact. Whoa, I am really "getting on up there"! However, most people still think I look 18. I'm sure that'll be a blessing in the coming years. <br />
<br />
Hope y'all had a great New Year's Eve whether you spent it out on the town or at home like me!Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00919642573672908922noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1328441948736771797.post-31563939784487519782010-12-30T10:18:00.000-08:002010-12-30T10:18:54.086-08:002010-The Year in Review<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">2010 proved to be a pretty awesome year for me!

I know I enjoyed my first married Christmas. <br />
Here's a brief recap of how Wes and I spent our holiday:<br />
Dec. 23--met Wes in Petal. He came up from work in Louisiana and I came down from Oxford to do Christmas with his mom's side of the family-his sisters and their kids, his mom's brother and sister and their kids. They always have gumbo and Wes had the honor of making it. It was delicious and much need break from the normal holiday food I'm used to having.<br />
<br />
Dec. 24--Christmas with Wes's dad's side of the family at his MaMaw's house. His MaMaw practically raised him (long story) so he's super close to her. It was a short but sweet lunch with his aunts, uncles, and cousins.<br />
<br />
<i>*I should probably insert here that I have a relatively SMALL family. I'm a only child and one of only 4 grandchildren on my mom's side and one of 5 on my dad's side. His family is HUGE! And they are all really close, so everyone comes. It was overwhelming to say the least and very different from what I am used to.</i>*<br />
<br />
After MaMaw's, we drove back up to Oxford to spend Christmas Eve night at our house. It was great to have it just be the two of us, because we don't get to see each other often and when we do, there are usually others around. We exchanged gifts with one another. I got an iPad!!! He got a grill along with a few other small things. <br />

Wes cooked us a great steak for lunch/supper on the grill. Then, we went to go see <u>Meet the Fockers</u>. So funny! It's a really cute movie. I had forgotten how long it had been since I'd been to a movie.<br />
<br />
Wes is home from work until January 6!!! I am so excited to get to spend so much time with him. <br />

My camera cord is still MIA. These pictures are from my phone. Once I locate my cord, I'll share my other goodies!

I can only imagine what I am going to see. Hopefully it'll be something along the lines of this:<br />

My husband came home from work for a few days so I just enjoyed spending some much needed quality time with him. I miss him so much when he's gone, but with me not teaching this year I am so thankful that he has such a good job. <br />
<br />
So, I decided to blog about LuLu today! LuLu is a terrier mix rescue dog that I have had for 5 years. She is my baby! If I spoil my real child anything like I do LuLu, it's going to be bad! <br />
