Lots of Nothings

-

So, I was thinking on the way home from school today.  (Dangerous, I know, after having worked my brain so hard at school. )  I was thinking, why am I not blogging more often?   Is it . . .

A. – My husband is about to undergo a major surgery and I feel that blogging about other things is a waste?

B. – I am back at school and I have nothing to blog about except school?  And who wants to hear about that?

C. – Because I am in school,  I have little time to blog?

So, I don’t know what it is exactly, maybe a little of each, but no more!  A blogger I will be.  I am actually going to get my students involved in blogging through their technology classes.  I can’t wait! How awesome to let the kids share their thoughts through technology! 

Justin and I spent the majority of last week watching the newest season of THE OFFICE.  Season 5 came out on DVD last Tuesday and Justin came home with it!  Here’s the funny thing.  I went to Wal-Mart Tuesday to get a few groceries.  Knowing that Justin was bringing home The Office and we would be having “movie night”, I bought myself some popcorn and coke.  I try to limit my intake of theses items, because I know they are not good for me to eat on a regular basis.  However, it was “movie night”.  Anyway, Justin is not a popcorn/coke person, but more an Oreo/Milk person.  I wouldn’t want him to be left out, so I , of course, bought his snack as well.  Justin gets home with the DVD and I see he has an extra sack as well.  My adorable husband bought popcorn and coke in glass bottles!  How well does he know me?!! So we watched The Office with our own snacks – Isn’t marriage great?

Our week is not always driven by TV or Movies, but last week was definitely a TV week!   Tuesday -The Office.   the office

Wednesday after church - Season Finale of LEVERAGE.  leverage(Let me speak to this just for a minute.  Are there any Leverage fans out there?  Seriously, is Sophie not coming back to the show?  Are they really going to cut her out like that?)

Thursday, disc 2 of the Office.

Friday, Dinner with The Terry’s to continue our Office addiction.

Saturday – Nascar and MSU game on at the same time!  Chase_logo_145 mstate

Sunday night – Season finale of Design Star spFeature_the-antonio-project_s234x60 (Which was awesome! If you aren’t an HGTV fan, the traditional show is no more.  Well, some of them are, but the winner of Design Star is very rough around the edges.  Antonio is a very buff, rough edged, guy with tattoos who is a great designer!   He is not the typical designer!  His show will be great!) Monday – finished the Office.  Tonight – blogging in bed.  Next TV addiction beginning Thursday night with THE OFFICE Season 6!

Glad to know who won Design Star. My DVR cut off at 57 minutes. Probably a programing error caused by me. I started watching 1/2 thru the season.

Abigail...I've lost your email and when I click on email you from your blog it won't let me. Send me your email to firstgradefarr@yahoo.com so I can get with you and Justin about the hotel points/nights we have saved up and about the plane ticket points. We have enough points for one free plane ticket I know.

Update and Welcome

-
I know that many of you are new to our blog, so welcome! Justin and I enjoy blogging about our lives, but I know that many of you have just joined us for surgery. So, please stay tuned for the rest of our lives as well! Justin is doing well. He has rested most of the day. He also sat up in a chair for an HOUR! He said his chest pain was fine, but he couldn't get his neck comfortable in that chair ( because he wanted to SLEEP!) He has been a great patient and has his normal humor. He also has comments that make little to no sense and probably won't remember most of this! Funny Comments from Justin today - Mrs. Anita was talking to Justin and finally said, "I think you're sleeping, so I'm going to leave you along. " to which Justin replied (With eyes closed) - "I can multitask!" Mom was cracking jokes by his bed and said, "I guess you don't think this is funny." And I said, "That's ok , right Justin, that is how we tal

Boston Bound

Well you will notice (assuming I get internet and get to post this blog) that it is in fact 12:17am.  If you know me at all, you know that I am not awake at this time by choice!  Also keep in mind that it is technically 1:17 where I am. Let me walk you through the day  . . . Mrs. Anita and Mr. Jimmy arrived in Ecru around 8am to pick us up.  The ride to the Memphis airport was quick and talkative.  We arrived at the airport around 9:30.   We unloaded all the bags at the curb and the men went to park the car.  Just trying to get a jump start on the day, I went to the ticket counter (where there was no line!) to see if I could get us checked in.  The man let me check all the bags and bumped us up to an earlier flight.  He was afraid that due to the weather, our 12:45 flight would be delayed.  When we got the gate we found out that the flight we were put on was also delayed.  The original flight was late getting to Charlotte, then flew to Memphis but could not land because of weather.

Welcome new readers

First, I would like to welcome our new blog readers to our lives online.  Because of Justin’s heart situation, we have some new readers to our blog.  I would like to encourage you to follow after this is all over with as well.  This is a fun way for Justin and I to share about our “interesting” (although you may not think so) lives! Health Update – Justin and I talked to and received an email from Dr. Gupta, the doc in Tupelo who is taking care of us.  He said that he is sending all of Justin’s info to Dr. Landzberg in Boston.  They should receive the info by Friday and hopefully review his info by Monday.  Dr. Gupta is expecting to hear from them by mid-week at the latest, hopefully by Monday or Tuesday.   So, Justin and the rest of the family are just in the waiting stage.  It reminds me of Dr. Suess’s book “Oh the Places You’ll Go”.  There is a page or two about the “waiting place”.  You can tell from the pictures in the book and the writing, that this is not the best place to be
