Eclipse

I never wanted to read the series but someone I baby-sit for forced them on me. I was bored one day and started reading and I was hooked. The next weekend I made my husband go with me to the $1.50 theater and see Twilight. I waited paitently for New Moon to come out. New Moon was my least favorite. I couldn't wait to see Eclipse. It was everything I hoped for and more. Even though I am not generally a Jacob fan I couldn't take my eyes off of him. yummy. lol. I cannot wait for the next one to come out!

Youth in Revolt

This movie was boring as crap and I did not like it at all. I was surprised I actually watched the whole movie. Not impressed at all!

6. Get a tattoo

I have to admit I didn't think I would be completing this one quite so soon. I have always had an idea of what I wanted and I always knew I wanted it on my foot. All I kept hearing was about how much it would hurt. I went last night to get my nose pierced. I have also wanted that for a long time but finally got up the nerve. We went to a place that was recommended by a friend of my husband's. I saw some of their work and started looking at the final of what I wanted. He said it would be $80 and he could do it in 30 minutes depending on me. I was ready. My husband freaked out and was mad at me the rest of the night. He is over it now though. :-)

I Love You , Man

I thought this movie was not great but it was cute and funny. It would be a good movie to have on in the background while you are trying to get something done.

The Horsemen

The description of this movie was different than watching it. It was a very odd movie but I did like it.

39. Clean out and organize pantry -1

Jon has been complaining we have nothing too eat. The real problem is our pantry is so crammed full and disorganized he doesn't feel like looking for something. One night this week I went to make dinner and needed something from the pantry and one thing led to another and I cleaned the whole thing out and the fridge too.

My next mission is to dwindle down what is in the pantry so I can restock it.

We had breakfast potatoes from the freezer with eggs for breakfast on Saturday. I made brownies on Saturday too. I made a sauce n cake box mix thing for dessert earlier this week. We also ate our General Tso's chicken from Sam's Club and rice from the pantry on Sunday. I would like a clean slate with all new expiration dates. I was surprised to find a few things wayyy past due date. I would've known if our pantry was more organized.

I'll add a picture later.

44. Clean out computer, organize files and back it up onto disk

This past week I have noticed how incredibly slow my computer is. I also have tons of music and 23gb's of pictures. I organized all the folders and decided what I wanted to toss or save. It is all sitting in a folder on my desktop waiting to be put on the other hard drive so Jon can rebuild my laptop!

42. Clean out master closet of everything we do not wear.

I worked my butt off on Sunday cleaning out the closet. I tossed clothes and shoes and even though I asked Jon to go through his stuff he was keeping stuff he never wore and trying to toss stuff I had just put in his closet...so much for help from him.

3 bags of clothes later and my closet is clean and organized. I'll update a picture later. :-)I even cleaned out our dressers.

This is one task I need to repeat more often.

Updates galore

I have so much to update so hopefully I can remember everything I have done and all the pictures will upload correctly...";-)

Canvas People update

The product shipped fast and was in a padded envelope. I wish they had put fragile on it because my postal carried shoved it into our mail slot. Thankfully there was no damage.

I opened it up and it was the wrong way. UGH! I ordered it and it showed it landscape online when I approved it and it was portrait when I got it. I went to the website and found return info. I was worried since I got it at a discount. The customer service was EXCELLENT! They returned my e-mail quickly and told me I needed to send a picture. As soon as they had a picture it was quickly resolved and they are sending me out a new one!

I get to keep the other one too! Woo

The quality of the picture is great and because customer service is excellent I will be ordering from them again.

#57 Visit 10 new restaurants

View from our seats

Sugarland- I am not counting this towards my 10 but I wanted to include a review. Everything looked so yummy. Jon got banana gelato and Jon's mom and I got tiramisu gelato. The flavor was intense and it was just like eating fresh tiramisu. It was heaven.

Spanky's Restaurant

We had lunch here and it was amazing. I had the Spanky's steak sandwich and besides the roll it was the closet thing in NC I have found that was similar to a Philly cheesesteak. The coleslaw was yummy too. Jon had NC bbq and fries. The fries were similar to Burger King. I love Burger king fries.

Top of the Hill

We ended the night after a visit to the Planetarium at Top of the Hill. We grabbed a tall top table on the patio and unfortunately were next to a group of loud drunken adults that were not being considerate to staff and customers passing by them. We picked up our table and moved it away from them. Later a bachlorette group moved their table away from them also. We all shared appetizers. We had buffalo chicken thumbs and toes, fried pickles and jalepeno's, sweet potato fries, and crab dip. Everything was delicious. The view was pretty and we enjoyed the sunset.

Happiest girl in the world # 92

We have a vacation scheduled for August and I have been asking for a DSLR camera since I met my husband at Best Buy. Finally all my dreams have come true and we got a great deal on a new Canon Rebel T1i. I LOVE IT!!!! I cannot wait to take it on vacation.

The Box

I was looking forward to this movie but I was let down. This movie was so strange that even though I was paying attention I was still confused. I do not recommend seeing it.

#57 Try 10 new restaurants, #90 Try 5 new wineries

Famous Dave's -It was very much like eating at Red Hot and Blue. We picked the feast for 2 because we couldn't decide what we wanted. They were out of the jalepeno mac and cheese but the waitress had a teeny bit for us to taste. It was sooo yummy. We barely ate any of it and when we packed it up to go it looked as if we had just ordered to go instead of eating it there. Two thumbs up!

Potomac Point Winery-Although it was right off 95 we took a wrong turn down a country road and had to turn around. Traffic was hell so we were a little later getting there than we wanted. We were surprised to find that it was a dog friendly winery. A couple had two cute chi's and one of them looked like Bam-Bam. We would've liked to explore a little more but we were short on time. We tried 13 wines. Recently I discovered that I do like Chardonnay if it is not oak aged. They had an oakey chardonnay and one aged in stainless steel. I really liked it so we ended up getting a bottle. They even had a olive oil tasting bar. The grounds of the winery were beautiful and would be perfect for a wedding. The bistro's menu looked yummy too.

I gave up on other pictures because it kept freezing. Maybe some other time.

46. Kill weeds on front sidewalk

They have come back once or twice but this time I think the heat has finally helped them stay gone.

I also changed the flag for fourth of July. A little John Deere for my husband. :)
