10 on Tuesday

1. I had never tried brussel sprouts until tonight. I thought maybe I was missing out on something, so I made some with bacon. I don't think I'll eat another brussel sprout again in my life. Yuck.

2. My kid almost has all of her teeth. Maybe someday I will sleep through the night again.

3. I'm so excited to find out the winner of the Mother's Day Giveaway!

4. My photography site is having work done. Yeah, I timed that really well - right during a giveaway. I thought it would be done sooner. :\

5. I just joined the PPOC - Professional Photographers of Canada. There is a local branch in Lethbridge and there are some AMAZING photographers. Can't wait to learn from them! My secret (until now) dream in life is to win an award in print competition.

6. I'm going through an online shopping phase again - it comes and goes! It's so much easier to justify buying things for Ava than it is for myself. My summer wardrobe needs some help.

7. I'm going to try to sew Ava a maxi dress. Tomorrow night. In my mind it is so cute - we'll see how that goes!

 I may use this tutorial and I may not - I might just make it up from a dress I have for her.


8. I'm keeping up with Project Life and I'm feeling good about that. Ava asks to look at pictures every day so there's another reason I'm glad I'm doing it. Now to work on her baby book.

9. Our thermostat quit again. We just got a new one last month. I have to hook the wires inside together to turn the furnace on, then unhook them to turn it on. I was in the basement for most of the day so I didn't realize how HOT it was getting upstairs. And the nights are a little on the chilly side. Gotta get a new thermostat before we don't need it anymore (hopefully this snow goes away soon and stays away).

10. I can't wait to plant my garden! I still have to build the boxes and find some dirt. I really want to do a lot of planting in my yard, too - a few more trees, a hedge, some flowers, etc. It probably won't happen this year but I will have my garden.


+1. I finally found out what the little rubber thing was that I threw away a few months ago - a foot for my Kitchen Aid. Way to go Kins. My mixer never moves so I didn't even notice it was gone.
