Hello There, Slacker!

I had a rough September! And by 'rough' I mean fun, busy, enjoyable and blog-less September! I am slacking on my blog and some of my goals. But hey- can't always get everything done at once!
Here is the September Goals Recap:
1. Read 3 books FAIL! I only read 1 and I hated it. Started a second and couldn't even get into it.
2. Make the Baby Registry DONE! Wahoo!
3. Make 3 new recipes I honestly have no clue if I did this or not. I cooked often but I don't know how many were new recipes.
4. Make a baby blanket Done! I love it, pics to come next week
5. Finish scrapbook Done! I will be posting pics next week for this also
6. Sign up for coffee hour Yup! I hosted in September and October already!
7. Dress less frumpy! Get out of the comfty clothes Pass! I purchased some new clothes and have been trying hard. I feel more like me!

Now for the October Goals:
1. Read 2 books
2. Check out some information for nursery schools
3. 2 new recipes

That's it! LOL Maybe I can complete these!

Confessions of a Bad Blogger.

I admit it, I have not been a great blogger since finding out I am pregnant. I think it is a mixture of Summer fun and pregnancy excitement that has lead me away from reading other blogs and writing on mine.
I don't want to even think about the fact that I have gotten almost no goals or projects done this summer. I did manage to donate a lot of clothes, shoes, books and food when we cleaned out the closets and pantry.
I promise that I am going to do my best to be a better blogger and really get things back on the ball over here!

Now if you please excuse me- I have about 30 blogs and 12 weeks of post reading to do!

SHARK WEEK!

Do you watch "Shark Week" on the Discovery Channel? July 31-August 6, 2011 was Shark Week. I loved it! I have watched in the past in bits in pieces but this year I was glued to my TV or DVR every night.

Andy Samberg of SNL and the big screen was featured as this years lead in and outs of commercials with his own "shark" encounters. The clips are fun and he did a great job. Can I just say there is something about the "Geeks" that are making me smile and laugh lately.

So if you missed seeing close encounters with Sharks from the safety of your couch go to YouTube or Discovery Channel and look for those clips. The one that freaked me out the most was the "Jaws Comes Home" episode featuring the Cape Cod area. Amazingly they have a growing number of sharks hanging out in that area because of the increase of the seal population. Also some of the more grotesque episodes were re-enactments of people who have been bitten or killed by sharks. Makes you think twice about what is lurking out there!

August Goals

Baby blocks seem very suitable for this month. It is me taking 'baby steps' back into my monthly goals. Below are my August 2011 goals:

1. Read 3 books!
2. Bring 3-4 lunches to work from home a week
3. 4 Dinners at home a week
4. Clean up the pantry
5. Ebay 2 items!

Nice slow start to getting into the groove again.

I'm Obsessed!

I'm obsessed with a few things lately.

1. Organizing and cleaning up my home. I have this urge to have a garage sale and liquidate a bunch of things.

2. Get back into making monthly goals! I have missed doing this. I need to check out my 2011 Goals list too and see how that is going. (I am nervous!)

3. The TV show Auction Hunters! I love it! You would be surprised by some of the things that they find!

4. Hot foods. It has been 95+ out all weekend and I just wanted hot foods. Soup, Shepard's Pie, Pizza, chili, etc... I am calling it a craving! 

Expecting... big things in the future!

First off let me apologize for my lack of blogging in June and also thus far into July. I have to admit my mind has been elsewhere and I have no real excuse... except for being 9 weeks Pregnant!

Whew... got that out in the open.

I think I want this shirt!

Any how. I promise to be a better blogger. I have missed blogging and need to get up to date on whats going on in my life! I have finally caught up on reading my favorite blogs!
