I Just Don't Get It and Things With Which I'm in Love (God, is that even grammatically correct?)

Why the hell am I LOSING followers?  I'm just getting more and more awesome...is no one into that sort of thing anymore?

Anyway, I figured I'd dive into a list of things that are currently stealing my heart:

  • bare feet
  • short sleeves
  • no jackets
  • having Matt wear only one shirt (he was freaking obsessed with wearing multiple shirts for a while...drove.me.crazy)
  • sidewalk chalk
  • dirt
  • flowers
  • sunshine
  • seltzer
  • wine (why does nice weather make me want to get drunk and really lazy?)
  • the fact that the size that I thought I was in capris/shorts isn't really the size I am...and it's in a good way
  • summer vacation plans being firmed up
  • not having a dog (she's at the in-laws for a visit...thankfully)
  • Matt's new haircut
  • Hailey's bare legs
  • Lemon spray that I can use on anything
  • Husband...he's cute when he's tan, but this 1/2 marathon thing is kind of wearing on me...there's just so much running involved!
  • our CSA...they have alpacas this year
Image credit - sad story though

  • how Matt sleeps with his arms over his head
  • how Hailey will tell me she loves me out of nowhere
  • the fact that we're moving ahead on our kitchen update
  • our new steamer for our floors...it actually makes me want to clean...well, a little...I sure think about it more now
  • skinnygirl with salt on the rim
  • yellow beets, kohl rabi, kale, spinach, carrots, beans, onions, garlic, potatoes, apples, juicer oranges (that's right...I juiced my own orange juice and it was freaking awesome), grapefruit, and all of the other fruits/veggies I am using on a daily basis...I love to learn how to cook new things even if they take a little getting used to and the Crazies flat out ignore them...their loss

What's making you swoon lately?  
Could it be un-following my blog?  
Yeah?  
Does that make you happy?  
Well, freaking knock yourself out!!  
(not that I'm bitter or anything)

I know you don't want to hear this... but even if you have only 1 follower, you're still awesome :)

Still, you made me laugh - stop being so bitter about it. I like to think of it as the right sort of people will obviously follow me, right???

And on the flip side, I'm loving gloves, scarves, pashminas (wearing a bright blue one today) and cold, grey weather! LOVE IT!

What's making me happy right now is not having to change diapers during the day because both are in their undies lol...its those little thing. =) the weather got shitty here again, and it's been cold and rainy for day 3 now. Boo.

Manda said...

I'm in love with the fact that you're coming here in just THREE days with your tan running husband and cutie pie kids and GG!!!!!!!!! Gotta add seltzer to my list. Almost bought chalk but didn't...they'll just have to play with the other 327 Easter toys we bought them! Went a little overboard......what a surprise!

I LOVE bare arms, especially at the beginning of the season. After being ensconced in sleeves for the last 6 months, their little arms look so delicate...I could just take a bite (but not really).

I have heard you mention skinnygirl a couple of times...gotta try that. I do love me a margarita!

On the "I love" list at my house is fresh pineapple. It's been really reasonably priced lately, and we've been eating about one a week...yum!

And I actually have been following your follower count. I was so excited when you got to 200, and then it's been wavering the past few days. I don't think I even know how to "un-follow" somebody. I take blogs off my blogroll, but I don't know if that means I'm not following them anymore...hmmm...whatevs...you rock. :)

Dolli-Mama said...

You crack me up. :)

The Captain's Wife said...

clearly the issue here is that you are so awesome that people feel that they are not worthy of following you~

I am going to look into a local CSA. I would really love to get local produce without having to truck all over the state to farm stands/farmers markets.

And I long for short sleeves and flip flops....still too cold up here :(

Samantha said...

Poot on losing followers! And what's making me happy? Bathing suits, sunshine & strawberries in cool whip! Yummy!

Lisa said...

Short sleeves and flip flops -- got to wear them for a few days. Want the warm weather back!

Linking to you today!

Too funny!

And YOU are currently loving DIRT? As in the dirty dirt outside?? It just so you can play with the steamer isn't it!!

I hate to admit it but this bed rest thing has kinda stolen my heart for today. I love listening to DH try and run the house and kids! Welcome to my world buddy, now bring me a drink!! Mwhahaha!

Andrea said...

That is just plain silliness! How dare them unfollow you!!! I like MandyE was happy when you hit 200 because that was your goal! I almost said something about it, but once again didn't want to be that stalker! :)

Love your list! It made me smile! All of those things make me happy too!

I think some people are moving away from Google Followers and subscribing to RSS feeds by other methods. Or maybe I don't have a clue what I'm talking about, because I don't even know what RSS is. One of those is true!

I am loving seeing little bare baby legs...though I have to admit I'm a little jealous that those legs have their daddy's darker skin tone, making me look even more pasty than usual! : )

Carrie27 said...

I'm enjoying the warmer weather, but I despise tank tops. I hate my arms.

Shell said...

What is skinny girl with salt on the rim? I am clueless.

I love bare feet, sundresses, days out in the sun, and lemonade.

Barbara Manatee said...

sheesh? why are people running away? WHY would any one want to stop reading? you make me laugh every day!

I already said how much I love 'no coats' - especially not having to put 3 kids' coats on and stuff them into their car seats! car seats are SO much easier without coats!!!

Danifred said...

I'm going with the warm weather and drunkiness. While wearing flip flops, of course.

andrea said...

totally going with the warm weather and drunkenness. but with bare feet.

love your list!
