house porn

-
so i'm addicted to house porn. well before we ever started looking for a house i was watching house hunters and hgtv. i would also frequent assorted online real estate sites. when were where looking at houses i would go online and look to see if anything new had been listed multiple times a day. i would also look at the million dollar homes and even homes that were just out of our price range. on occasion i would be chatting with a friend from college on facebook (hi colleen) and i would send her the links to the million dollar homes. she told me i was sending her house porn.
now i know i'm not the only one out there who is addicted to house porn. don't all speak up at once...

so anyway, last week my husband and i were having a discussion about a set he had worked on. (he builds sets for tv shows) he was referencing something and so of course i googled it. sadly i could find no real pictures of the set although i did find tons of video. i just don't really have the patience to watch the video to see the one thing that he was looking for so i gave up.
BUT
i found and amazing new blog to frequent!!

    Preaching to the choir on Hooked on Houses sister.

    House Hunters makes me want to scream at the TV and gnash my teeth!

    If one more dewy eyed couple with two dimes to their name speaks of granite, SS appliances, and double-sink in the master vanity as if it is the bare minimum for sustaining life and anything less is akin to living in a box under a bridge, I. Will. Scream.

    Otherwise, it's fab :)

Life has changed

-
I know I know...I said a few years ago I was going to write more... then I didn't.   Well things have changed. I mean really really changed.  The mr and I had a baby! The little man is going to be 1 in a few days.  So that really changes life.  I was very lucky that I was able to take 6 months maternity leave from my job! Then when I went back to work mom and dad put their life on hold and came out from the east coast for 6 months.  I also got lucky that my first day back ( as a retail manager) was the day after the day after Christmas! I missed all of the holidays, so that was an extra bonus.  The next step was trying to find a day care that could work with my schedule, which is different every week and I find it out 2 weeks in advance. This proved to be extremely difficult.My work has a life assistance program and I called them several times to try to source day cares. They came back with a list of about 4 each time that didn't 100% meet our criteria. So I called

spandex is a privilege

so while walking to my car after work i was reminded of a line from a classic movie from the early to mid 90's hackers "spandex is a privilege, not a right" sooo true! oh 90's movies you speak to me on soo many levels. how i miss the 90's! not so much the early 90's like high school, but the early to mid 90's like college. those were the days! feeling the waves of nostalgia roll over me... but i digress there was a big girl wearing leggings as pants. (ok not spandex, but pretty damn close!) and i don't mean with a tunic or longer top, but with a normal length shirt falling just below the waist. really? do i need to see that? really? no, no i don't i understand being comfortable with your body, but would you wear a bikini on the beach? probably not now i consider my to be a big girl, not huge, but i could stand to lose a few pounds (which i'm not even going to think about until after christmas bc to me december is alll about food!) i might not
