Tuesday Ten [7.13.10]

By Rhonda Gail, on 07.13.10

1. I started the morning out with killing some time at the thrift store before an appointment. $11 dollars later, I had 2 skorts (oh yes, SKORTS!), 2 shirts, a pair of shorts for Nick, a shirt for Harper, and a decorative plate.

2. After this morning’s appointment, I finally got a library card at my hometown library. The last time I had one there I was a teenager. I checked out Kristen Chenoweth’s A Little Bit Wicked and Jennifer Weiner’s Best Friends Forever.

3. Yesterday, I swore to everything holy and not that I would work out after the kids went to bed. I did not. I would like to say this was the first time I reneged on my promise. It was not. But TONIGHT! Tonight is the night!

4. I now have a tv-watching app on my phone and I got to watch Big Love for the first time last night. I am so excited that I will now get to watch TV in bed!

5. I have ideas. Lots and lots and lots of ideas. The problem is, about 79% of the time, I don’t follow through with my brilliant ideas.

6. So I have finally decided on a camera. And I chose it based solely on aesthetics. My photographer friends are probably rolling their eyes. But I’m going to look so cool using it once I buy it!

7. I made a decision many years ago that still haunts me sometimes. This is one of those “haunted” days and I’m bummed over it.

8. I am very slowly getting some organization going on in the house. There’s only so much I can do with my dad’s clutter everywhere, but I’m organizing to maximize storage more than anything.

9. Forgiveness is one of my strong suits. Sometimes I wish I wasn’t so forgiving, but I am.

10. With the exception of Sunday, I have continued showering and dressing in the mornings to boost productivity. I’m so proud of myself!
