Our Married Life

The “Going Green” propaganda is EVERYWHERE. I know it’s because Earth Day is tomorrow, but can they shove this in our face more?? I am all for going green but geez. One example is an email marketing from Cooking.com I got with a subject line that read
“Earth-Friendly Recipes: Smart Seafood, Local Ingredients, Garden Herbs”.

I didn’t do too well this weekend on the veggie thing. I ate meat, **sigh** blasphemy! That’s ok though, as long as I am eating veggies 80% of the time, I’ll be ok.

After one snow day, followed by a beautiful sunny day, the snow came back with full force. It left much of Dallas all slushy, but the area near my work office had heavy snowflakes. It was so pretty. Anyway, it took me over 2 hours to get home as documented by my trusty iPhone. But that also included a detour to the pharmacy in Richardson to pick up my dad’s prescriptions. So my early release day pretty much suck. Now I’m just catching on work stuff.

We finally got snow. I didn’t think we would this season considering it’s already March, but we finally got it. It started last night around 6. I wish we took some pictures of our house since this is the first snow at our new house. Oh well, maybe next time. I doubt it’s going to stay cool for long, so by the time we get home, it would’ve melted. There were several traffic accidents on the way to work. Why can’t people be more cautious? I mean you don’t have to drive slow, but just be more aware.

I usually get all giddy when we do have snow, but with all that is going on, it’s hard to feel that way. I just come to work, go to the hospital, go home, have dinner and fall asleep. How sucky is that? On top of that, I have to take a different route to work so I can drop my mom off at her place and traffic is ten times worse. UGH. Thank goodness for starbucks on the way. Speaking of which, we need to drink more coffee at home. Brian and I both went to Starbucks to buy a bag of beans so we’ve got tons of coffee to use up. I love freshly ground coffee and my grinder for that.

I managed to read a chapter for the PMP exam. As long as I can put in the extra effort on the weekends, I think I will be ok. I’ve got a full month now, so no more excuses.

I am hoping my dad will be released from the hospital tomorrow, so life will be back to semi normal in the next few days. We will see.

In other news, I was hoping to go vote today, but I guess I will wait until election day. I’m still torn between who to vote for, I suppose because I don’t know enough.

One last thing, I’m wearing a sweater that’s pretty popular at work. I hope the others don’t wear it too.

Reesey and I went out for our bedtime walk tonight and there’s snow everywhere! There must be several inches on the ground and the sidewalks and street are covered in slush. The house is covered pretty heavily too, hopefully it’s bright enough tomorrow morning I can take pictures of it. According to weather.com it looks like it is supposed to keep this up for several more hours and then stay cold enough that it’ll stay on the ground at least through lunch tomorrow.

I just recently launched a food blog called Delicious Accidents. We’ll work on the layout later, but hope you enjoy.

Now what guy would be eating chocolate covered strawberries while watching the Super Bowl? Sometimes places like Shari’s Berries should really reconsider making stuff just for the sake of the event.

How incredibly sad. He was actually a good actor too. It’s a shame to see someone die so young. I hope it was all an accident.

I could totally watch 10 Things I Hate About You over and over.

On New Year’s Day I cut my hair. I got a bob. I was quite nervous seeing how much she was cutting off, because the last time I cut my hair this short I hated it. I actually like it. The hairdresser actually knew how to cut my hair according to my face shape.

Anyway, I’m glad the weekend is here. I’ve been enjoying doing absolutely nothing. Although, Brian and I did head out to the gym to do the kickboxing class this morning. This wasn’t my first time doing kickboxing, but it was Brian’s. He left after 15 minutes, I blame his pinky toe that he broke trying to get out of bed this morning. I was asleep on the couch so I didn’t know what happen exactly. So now his toe is swollen and purple. Speaking of sleeping on the couch, I think I like that more than sleeping in bed. I can actually sleep through the entire night. Perhaps it’s because I can roll around without kicking my husband or dog. Maybe next time we’ll try a different class together.
