tuesday ten

1. i was on the wallace and ladmo show twice when i was little.  once with girl scouts, once as a class field trip.  one of my friends was in a different class and i wanted to sit by her so i traded seats with the girl next to her.  the girl i traded with won the ladmo bag.

2. i can't stand to walk around my the house (anybodies) barefoot and i always have socks on, especially on the tile.

3. lunch with jb today was just what i needed.

4. i am the cfo of our family, handling every bit of our finances but investments.  i leave those to my very capable husband.  i don't pay any attention to his side.  i usually don't know what he does until i see a new "investment" line on our banking site, because he's cool like that and has every.single.account linked to our main bank account.  we have budget meetings though, for some reason he likes to see where his hard earned money goes.  i've tricked online banking into thinking that hobby lobby is a "household necessity" which instantly justifies multiple debit transactions.

5. we're going to dinner at bandera.  my mouth waters just thinking about their jalapeno cornbread.

6. i've been working with a personal trainer and i love it.  for some reason looking and feeling better outweighs the ridiculous workouts that he puts me through and i keep going back.

7. my little guy has been showering on his own for quite a while now and he's so proud of himself every time.  i miss bath time though and sometimes he'll let me talk him in to taking a bath just so i can sit and chat with him.

8. i love to craft and cook and clean and bake and decorate my house.  i'm one of those freaky people that loves to mop my floors.  except i don't use a mop, i use a shop towel under my feet, or i get down on my hands and knees.  i don't really think other methods of mopping are effective.  that's just me.  making my house clean and comfortable is something that brings me joy and i consider it a blessing.  both to have a house to clean and having a family that i love to do it for.

9. veggies and jalapeno hummus are my favorite meal at the moment.

10. i love dave ramsey's quote about getting out of debt... "if your broke friends are making fun of you, then you're right on track."

happy tuesday.
