10 on Tuesday.
1. Last night we were watching the 10 o'clock news and I was surprised to hear they had Lawrence County schools on lockdown yesterday. The reason? They had threats going out over this whole consolidation mess. For those of you that don't know they are wanting to consolidate Hazelwood, R.A. Hubbard, and I believe Hatton. To me this makes sense...they are all three small schools and obviously more money can be given to one school instead of stretching it out over three. But of course you got people who don't want change...and so now they are threatening people over it. Ridiculous!
2. So I am in the middle of spring cleaning. I am purging lots of items and giving them to goodwill.
3. We are putting down hardwood in our house in May. Originally we were only doing it in our living room and hallway. The foyer already has it. Now we have decided to do all three bedrooms as well.
4. So my brother and Susan are braving the Disney World experience with Macy this June. She'll still be 3, just a few weeks short of 4 when they take her. 8 whole days. She is a huge Mickey Mouse fanatic and I just know she is going to pee her pants with excitement.
5. Taco salads for dinner tonight :) This makes my tummy happy.
6. I am so happy. I made Wes some chocolate oatmeal drop no bake cookies last night as a thank you for cleaning the master bathroom for me. They set. I know you are thinking big deal isn't that what they are supposed to do? Yes that's what they are supposed to do but those are some finiky cookies and sometimes they set and sometimes they don't. Of course when they don't set you can always enjoy them with a spoon :) But they set last night whoo hoo!
7. Wes has a nickname at work. They call him Sippy. If you work for TVA you have a nickname. It's just a fact of life. Well there is this one guy he works with who I met at Walmart one day when I was with Wes. He is a fun guy who likes to flirt lol. But he calls me Mrs Sippy...say it together and it sounds like Mississippi :) But he's always asking Wes how the lovely Mrs Sippy is lol.
8. We are getting a freezer to put in our garage. This makes me happy because our freezer on our fridge just isn't big enough. Now I'll have extra space whoo hoo!
9. I'm getting to go to the beach twice this summer. Once to PC with my parents. I'm leaving Wes at home :) No seriously he has to work and so he can't go then and heck I am not passing up a free trip to the beach. Then me and him are going to Destin in July for a belated 3rd anniversary trip.
10. Our actual anniversary will be spent in Pigeon Forge for my family reunion. Looking forward to that as well. We are going to the Dixie Stampede one night. I have been to that one and the one in Myrtle Beach. Wes has never been so I know he'll enjoy it :)
Well it was hard pulling out that 10 on Tuesday this week. OH I just remembered...tomorrow is Lauren and Kevin's 3rd anniversary...so Happy Anniversary guys! And I promise next week I'll have some more exciting posts. Hopefully. Until then Happy Tuesday all!

Some companies are just impatient!!
For crying out loud! Yes this is a vent. My AT&T bill was due yesterday. I always pay it online. Well I forgot it yesterday and remembered this morning. So I was like Eh one day no biggie. Well at 8 freakin o'clock this morning an AT&T rep calls my house...Mrs. McClanahan (which she butchered beyond words) do you realize you have an outstanding balance of so and so. I was like um yeah it was due yesterday and it slipped up on me...I was making plans to log into my computer in just a second after I finished my breakfast to pay it. Really one day? (I didn't say this part though) Okay so as soon as I finished my breakfast I log in and pay it.
Well lo and behold at 11 o'clock my phone rings again....this time it is a man...he doesn't even try to say my last name...he just says may I speak with Wesley. I'm like he's at work, may I take a message? This is AT&T and we are just calling to let you know that you have an outstanding balance. By this point I am like for crying out loud!! I tell this man...yes it is 1 day late...1 not 10...and I have already been contacted at 8 am this morning during my breakfast...I paid the bill at precisely 8:22am....it'll be coming to you shortly...so why don't you make a notation of that in your little computer there. Thank you very much.
I'm just shaking my head right now. Yes I realize it was late...but come on one day? And not even a full 24 hours? Sometimes people forget things...it happens. AT&T doesn't seem to understand that.
Okay vent over!

I'm doing my 10 a day early
1. Wes is at driving school tonight so I am bored and decided I'd do my 10 a day early.
2. I have been wanting popcorn lately. I don't have any in the house and so on my grocery run tomorrow I'll be buying some.
3. My kitties celebrated there 1st birthday Saturday. Savanna's 2nd b'day is April 1.
4. Wes passed his training center top out oral and is now officially in the plant...whoo hoo.
5. I have been sewing lately. I'll be posting pics of various projects soon.
6. Want to hear a funny Macy story? Yesterday we had dinner at my parents. Macy was in the living room playing while we were in the dining room. Macy hollers out "Mommy I have to poopoo." Susan then says "Okay come in here and let me see it." We are of course looking at her like WTH? Have you lost your marbles? She is like "Why are ya'll looking at me like that? She said she had a booboo?" We were all dying laughing at this point and Chris says "No, she said she needed to go poopoo." Susan's ears are stopped up, she is getting over an ear infection so she didn't hear her right. That is the hardest I have laughed in a while.
7. Boo to Auburn not getting into the NCAA basketball tournament.
8. My most favorite show ever comes on tonight. Big Bang Theory!! Love it!
9. I'm so excited...we officially have dates down to get this house painted. I have been waiting for this day whoo hoo!
10. I'm excited about this week of weather. Spring is in the air..and I believe the first official day of spring is later this week.
Bonus: Don't forget to wear green tomorrow. Happy Saint Paddy's Day!

Another 10 on Tuesday
1. It seems like all I do on this blog anymore is a 10 on Tuesday.
2. Maybe something interesting will happen soon so I'll have other things to blog about.
3. I need to drink more water but I am having trouble doing that.
4. My BIL's girlfriend gets on my nerves. Every time I talk to her I feel like I am being transported back to the bitchy girls of high school who loved drama. Didn't I graduate almost 11 years ago? She really has a lot to learn about life.
5. I really need to go to the library. I need new reading material in the worst way.
6. Wes passed his last written test of his program...whoot whoot. Now he has his top out oral exam on March 13th and then he has completed the first 18 months of his program and only has 18 months left until he is a journeyman and an official Instrumentation Mechanic and not just an Instrumentation Mechanic Trainee.
7. It is true that sometimes washing machines will last 20+ years. My mom had to buy herself a new washing machine this past weekend. Her old one she purchased in 1985...yeah that sucker is almost as old as me. I say it was made right :)
8. Don't you love the craziness of Alabama weather? It's going to be 70 degrees Friday. Yes this is less than a week after we had snow. Alabama weather is definitely an anomility(sp?).
9. Klancy I'll email you the details of my kitchen table. Didn't want you to think I didn't get your message. I just haven't spent much time on here lately but I will get the info to you :)
10. I think we are going to go see The Watchmen on Friday night. I don't know what it is about these action adventure movies but ever since last summers Iron Man, Incredible Hulk, and The Dark Knight, I am loving these kind of movies. That's a total shock to me :)
Hmm I made it...Happy Tuesday all.
