Couch Potato

This is what I've become. I'm such a procrastinator that I'm not really sure if I will be able to get out of this rut of being a couch potato, but I hope so. I haven't been eating the healthiest things, though if you know me, you know that's not my strong suit anyway. I did eat some carrots last week...a step up from zero vegetables! I have found that if you cook it in Italian dressing with chicken, the carrots actually have flavor! Although I am probably counteracting the good part of vegetables with things like Italian dressing, but at least I am eating them now! I have found in the last year that I can tolerate zucchini squash, carrots, onions, green peppers. Ben won't eat onions, so I only eat those if we are at a restaurant. I love potatoes, but are those considered vegetables? Probably not the way I cook them, but I looove them! Cooked probably any way imaginable. I'm not sure if I've tried and liked any other vegetables besides those. I've eaten mushrooms in numerous things and Ben has tried to sneak it in when he's cooking, but I cannot stand those slimy things! I'm sure it gives good flavor, but then I don't want to taste or feel the actual mushroom in my mouth (and I will know if you sneak it in!). 

Being that I'm sitting and typing this, you can see already that I am procrastinating on doing something. And for the last hour I've been playing with the picnik functions since they will be shutting down in a few months. This is what I made:

Pretty? I think it turned out alright. Took forever to get the words/colors like I wanted, but it's nice. Well, it's starting to get late and I need to fix dinner, wash clothes, straighten things up, watch tv, fold clothes, clean dishes.....

Picture Overload

Ben's digital camera broke a few years ago and I have never gotten my own digital camera (still have the camera that takes film, which [sidenote] is a funny story because at family get-togethers, if there is a young kid around, they always want to see the picture I just took and I have to always disappoint them because my camera isn't digital so they aren't able to see the picture....and usually they don't understand that concept since they're growing up in a world that's all digital). Anywho we got married in June and received some money at the wedding and I told Ben "hey lets finally get a digital camera on our honeymoon and we'll have all these awesome pictures, blah blah" and he said "no lets save the money and just buy disposable cameras for the honeymoon" (and no Ben I won't let you live that down, haha). Well we made a pact then and there that we would get a digital camera on Black Friday. So we did (I made sure of it, haha)! We got a good deal and I've been trying to take lots of pictures....but I typically forget to put them on the computer.... so get ready for picture overload!

                                           playing with the macro function on the camera, 

                                  these are some really cool coasters we got as a 

                                                       wedding present

                                                            aww what a little angel

                                                             stickin' his tongue out

                                              accidentally had the flash on but gosh
                                        what pretty green eyes he has!!!
                                                  (he's curled up in a ball here)

                                              hard to tell but the note says 
                                          "Happy Valentine's Day, I Love You" 
                                                and inside is reese's! Yay!

He also got me flowers, but I will share those pictures in another post. I'm trying to take pictures of them everyday because when i got them, the buds were still closed, but they're opening up a little more everyday. I want to make a little picture collage of them opening up. They're verrrrry pretty! :)

Well, it's someone special's birthday today and I need to go decorate and run some errands before he gets home, so toodleloo!

Happy Birthday Tina!
