Miscellany Monday

{one} 

I'm so excited my raise took effect starting yesterday.  That should definitely help with Christmas.

{two}

I had to get glasses last week (for the first time ever) and got to pick them up yesterday.  I must say I didn't realize my eye sight was that bad...or maybe it's just a lot better with the glasses.  You will not get a pic just yet...read meet me on Monday post about the "just got out of bed look."

Auburn won the SEC championship....woohoo!  Now they are going to the National Championship in Arizona.  The hubs is determined we are going but I on the other hand do not want to skip the mortgage payment.



Ashley and I at Toomer's Corner.  If you don't know anything about Auburn, the tradition is to roll the trees at Toomer's Corner after an Auburn win and this was definetely a HUGE win!  That is toilet paper around my neck!

It's snowing in Auburn!

My fortune cookie yesterday read "Have fun this weekend and then be productive."  I wasn't too productive this weekend.  I had fun with friends, worked on some crafts, did a little Christmas shopping, and sipped on this yesterday.  Does that count?  

Yummy hot chocolate.

Miscellany Monday

I'm actually glad it's Monday b/c that means my weekend of working is over and only 1 more day until I will gladly hand over the beeper to the next girl on call.  This is my favorite post b/c I can talk about anything I want.

{one}  I'm still trying to catch up on my sleep from the midnight viewing of Harry Potter the other night.  I came home from the movie and started working to get some of my hours out of the way.  I couldn't sleep late this weekend since I had to work.  You better believe I will sleep great and late Thursday through Sunday. 


{two} I'm so excited to try a new recipe for Thanksgiving:  Paula Dean's Pumpkin Goey Butter Cake.  Hopefully mine will turn out like this:

{three}  I can't wait to start my Christmas shopping.  I usually wait until after Thanksgiving.  I know...I'm a procrastinator.


{four} I'm so excited about putting up our Christmas tree and decor.  We wait until the day after Thanksgiving:  Football and putting up the tree.


{five}  Tonight is the DWTS finale.  I'm rooting for either Jennifer or Kyle.

Yeah for more link ups.  It's time for Miscellany Monday at Carissa's.

{one}

It's raining here today which is good but it was so cozy under the covers that I did not want to get out of bed.  I didn't sleep very well either b/c I had a nightmare.  It seemed like it lasted the whole night too.

{two}

Yeah for Thanksgiving next week.  I'm making a new recipe that I found at Everything Happens for A Reason and I can't wait to try it.  It's a Paula Dean recipe so we know it's very good but very unhealthy.  Hey it's Thanksgiving.  You're not supposed to be dieting.

Thanks to blog stalking The Pinklets, I have found quite a new author that I have added on to my Amazon Wish List.  Less than 6 weeks until Christmas!

My coffee with caramel-flavored Bailey's is finally kicking in.

I have the beeper this week starting tomorrow so I can't really leave the house (with the exception of Zumba if my mom will take call and for Harry Potter-yes I'm going to the midnight showing Friday morning!)

Miscellany Monday

I'm linking up with Carissa at Miscellany Monday.  I've got to post about something since the Blog Challenge is almost done.

{one}  I am glad that due to the time change I got an extra hour of sleep this morning but I definitely do not like it getting dark at 5:00.

{two} I got a belated birthday gift card to Old Navy and bought a pair of jeans and a cute top.  I had to go up in a jean size.  I've been eating horribly lately. 

{three} Due to #1 and #2, I have started my 10-minute exercise DVD.  I had to make myself do it, but it will definitely be worth it soon.  The Zumba on Tuesdays is a lot of fun too but I need to exercise more than once a week.

{four} My friend Amy told me about Frugal Coupon Living and it is the coolest website if you're hunting for discounts or deals.  It updates constantly.

{five} I am excited for this next week:
