Listening To: Made it into the Gs...  but have slightly stalled.  I did really dig rediscovering Garbage and Gin Blossoms.  They take me back.

Book finished: Beauty; Anna Dressed in Blood; Sandman 2; Boys 10

ReadingVampire Academy by Richelle Mead

On the Nightstand: HP 6 and Scott Pilgrim

MakingLists: Summer to dos.  Trying to get a list of things to do with the boys ready for their arrival.  Plus, I reconnected with a friend who lives about 3 hours away.  Hopefully we can find time to see each other soon.

Around the house: We've gotten most of the things put away.  But we still need to get pictures framed.

From the kitchen: More and more freezer meals.  Pretty soon I'm going to make some more.  And I tried making a 2 minute chocolate cake coffee cup thing in the microwave.  Next time I need to adjust the cooking time, but they were pretty good.

On the Web: Catching up on some more blogs in my GoogleReader.

Farmer's Market Finds: First week back to the market and I woke up really late.  The market runs 9-1 and I did get there until 11:30.  By that time, all the yummy pastries were gone.  I did get some great nectarines, strawberries, broccoli, and a ciabatta loaf.  I must set my alarm for next week.

Crafting: I got to go to a card class today and meet some lovely ladies.  I already knew one of those ladies, but of course she's lovely.  Look at the pretty!

Watching: We've made it to Stargate Atlantis.  Halfway through season 1 and it is intense.  I'm still working through Chuck season 5.  I also started my DZP actor item (Dwayne Johnson!).

Wondering: Why does the Goodwill one block from my house have to be the worst one that I've been too?  I am thoroughly disappointed!

From Nature: It was 65 and rainy on Monday. You would have thought that it was below freezing by the way everyone was acting.  I was dressed in a tshirt and jeans.  Everyone I passed had sweatshirts and/or coats on.  I had to laugh at the silliness.  After the one day of some rain, it got back into the 75 degree range for the rest of the week.

Shopping Scores: Finally found a clearance everyday dress at Target.  It will be worn this week sometime.  And I received my first StitchFix box yesterday.  I'll be posting my results soon...

Project: The bookshelf we ordered came.  J graciously put it together while I rearranged the office to make room for it.  We are short on wall space, so we took down the shelf and put it in the closet.  I managed to empty four boxes of books into it.  Unfortunately, we still have ~7 boxes of books in the closet and the office floor.  I think we need two more of these babies to get them all put away...
