What I've Been Up to Lately

84/365: Watching my husband attempt to dig our car out of my parents' driveway. We ended up needing a few extra sets of hands. Thank goodness for friendly neighbors.

85/365: My dog is amazing.

87/365: Jimmy John's is so good to me. Unwich = Gluten free happiness.

88/365: Birthday present to my hubs. Awesome concert! Joshua James is good to his fans!

 89/365: Saying good-bye to my sweet puppy before we leave for Detroit, Michigan. Also, doing homework. Always doing homework.

90/365: My favorite place in Detroit is Joe Louis Arena. Thanks to our amazing friend, Terry, we got to tour the locker room, walk out on the ice, and see Gordie Howe on his birthday! What a weekend! Still can't believe it. 

 91/365: Rediscovered this picture of Adam from when we first started dating.

92/365: Ruben, rug surfing through the dining room. 

93/365: Trying to do homework at my house is a joke. 

94/365: Watching the hubs play some hockey.

95/365: Celebrating warmer days by opening the windows.

96/365: First time using the mixer for some gluten free goodness.

97/365: The sunbathing basset is never satisfied.

98/365: Enjoying our first Bats game of the season at Louisville Slugger Field! 

 99/365: New book from Sojourn Community Church.

100/365: Reunited with my front porch. So happy (and the pets, too).

101/365: Charlie after a nice walk.

102/365: Duncan doing a little cactus surfing.

103/365: This guy following me everywhere.

104/365: Love finding new (and delicious) gluten free snacks!

105/365: Rainbow after a storm...

...followed by the most delicious burger I have ever tasted.

106/365: The most ornery cat I've ever met. I took him for a walk once and now he spends his days trying to figure out how to get back outside.

Sorry for my major absence. 365 Projects are hard work! :) I'm getting excited as my first semester of grad school comes to a close. Although, I will be starting right back up with two summer classes. I need a nap just thinking about it. ;)

What have you been up to lately?

Busy Bee

Oh man. Remember my last blog post? The one about me having difficulty managing my time
Yeah, still an issue. I'm working at improving. At least I am able to turn my homework in on time. Unfortunately, that means I'm not blogging when I want to. And, I have a huge test to study for this weekend. So, I don't foresee myself managing other aspects of my life too well in the near future. Alas, there's gotta be an upside. Eventually I'll just get it, right? Anyway, here is what I've been up to in-between quizzes, projects, receiving bad grades, resubmitting assignments hopeful for an improved score, and being the best nanny I can be.

43/365: Sometimes, I just want a burger. It is a rare occurrence (poor Adam). However, we've had them twice since I've last blogged! Yum! Oh, also on a GF bun, of course. Sorry, I can't remember who makes them. But, I purchased them from Whole Foods. And they were delish!

44/365: Watching the snow on a much needed lunch break with Adam. I'm going to keep linking back to his blog in hopes that he will write some more. :)

45/365: A sweet Valentine's Day in Louisville with my hubs. It's our 6th V-Day together!

46/365: My usual studying distraction.

47/365: My V-Day flowers from Adam. <3

48/365: Cute basset salt and pepper shakers from Yesternook! What a thoughtful gift. Fun fact: I own 2 sets of basset salt and pepper shakers. Please contain your shock. I know this is hard to believe.

49/365: Coffee break. Also, roses are looking sad. Or, they really want some coffee. Probably the latter.

50/365: Received a thoughtful gift in the mail! Have I mentioned I love the Detroit Red Wings? Because I do. 

51/365: Adventures in Slow Cooker (GF) Stuffed Peppers! YUM!

52/365: More coffee. More distractions.

Happy Friday, folks! Here's to a relaxing weekend. Full of studying. At least there's coffee.  :)

Also, do any of you have formatting problems with Blogger? I find myself having a hell of a time deleting big gaps between photos and text, text randomly switching from left to center, un-linked to linked, etc. It's such a hassle! 

Relaxing Weekend

39/365: Friday was a day full of reminders of my love. Those days are the best. It started with a morning coffee in this mug. I received it from Adam right before he proposed to me. Random, but beautiful. I love it so much. 

Then, this song came on Pandora while I was working. This is the song Adam used to tell me how he felt about me ( over 5 years ago!). 

40/365: Saturday, we took a small trip back to our hometown to see family. I'm pretty sure I could have made it on to People of Walmart during our morning outing.

And, for some reason I ended up at Walmart multiple times that day. Which is horrible because I had ceased going to Walmart a few months ago. Hmmm. Well, at least we didn't actually make any purchases. Just played with some toys. And, again.

Then, later that night I had my first experience playing Risk. Have you ever played? I'm finding out I have a secret love of strategy games. I'm not very good at them yet (I'm team Yellow), but I really, really enjoy them.

41/365: Sunday was a great day of catching up with family and friends. I was finally able to give (and receive) a Christmas present to my nephew. He seriously lights up my life. What a sweetheart. 

Then, we headed back home to Louisville. :)

42/365: Today has been calm. I worked a short shift and read some tough material for class. I'm still working on managing my time better. I'm sure it has nothing to do with this cutie.

What are your best tips for managing time? I've been trying to put the computer away as much as possible when studying. But, it's kind of difficult with online education. ;) I welcome any advice!
