Why do I feel like I need these? I mean, they're going to look horrible with my baggy sweatpants that I normally lounge around the house in. I love that they're pink. Yes, mom. I LOVE pink now. I used to HATE the color when I was a wee little one. How about that bow? I love it. I need these.

Now showing: American Pickers. LOVE this show!! The built in niche will be here before we know it and I'll be posting another picture of it when its finished. Eddie is such a happy boy.<br /><br />I'm a huge fan of the TV now that we have it. I was indifferent on whether to buy a new TV or not. My eyes don't strain as much and it looks like you're right there with the action. You can really see every blade of grass... which we've been doing a lot of lately with all the golf that's been on TV.<br /><br />This TV, though, is a real time sucker and I find myself being less than productive when I'm curled up on our big comfy couch, underneath a big comfy blanket, looking at the big ass TV. Maybe we shouldn't have gotten such plush things? I'd probably get more done around the house.<br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4336075251797515179.post-61264966844840846672011-03-15T19:41:00.000-07:002011-03-15T19:41:52.713-07:00In The Know: Are Tests Biased Against Students Who Don't Give A Shit?<iframe width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/2RrreVthWRY?fs=1" frameborder="0" allowFullScreen=""></iframe><br /><br /><script type="text/javascript">tweetmeme_style = 'compact';</script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js"></script>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4336075251797515179.post-36858221567182883772011-03-15T13:00:00.000-07:002011-03-15T13:00:06.142-07:00I'm kind of in love...<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KQ9zP7zt3AM/TWMEaJTH0ZI/AAAAAAAAAsE/c2ewDjSfDzs/s1600/do1.jpg"><img style="text-align: center; margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; display: block; height: 265px;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5576305610834039186" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KQ9zP7zt3AM/TWMEaJTH0ZI/AAAAAAAAAsE/c2ewDjSfDzs/s400/do1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>...with the way this room looks.

We went to our favorite dinner spot in Oceanside, Teri Cafe, and made our standard post-dinner "Let's walk this food off." trek over to TJMaxx. They're bright and the Jill room kinda sorta matches in a non matchy kinda way. But that's just how I like it. CRAZY. Of the three, my favorite is the one on the bottom.

Crush the oreos. I use a ziploc bag and a rolling pin... you can be fancy and use a food processor or blender, but that's a lot of stuff to clean)Save a little bit of the crushed oreos for later if you'd like to decorate the tops of your balls.<br />2. Mix the crushed oreos with softened cream cheese using the back of a wooden spoon. I also like to add funfetti frosting for a little surprise when you bite into the balls.<br />3. Roll the mixture into balls and place on a cookie sheet.<br />4. Melt chocolate as directed on the package and then dip balls into chocolate using your fingers, plastic forks... whatever. I like to use my fingers =) Set them on your cookie sheet. Covering the cookie sheet helps during clean up. I just lay down some tin foil. Use whatever you want...<br />5. Refrigerate and eat!!<br /><br /><br /><br /><script type="text/javascript">tweetmeme_style = 'compact';</script><br /><script type="text/javascript" src="http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js"></script>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4336075251797515179.post-77128920181630484862011-03-11T13:00:00.000-08:002011-03-11T13:00:02.886-08:00re-painting the dressers<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yieUB6RlWNU/TWBEtzORnxI/AAAAAAAAAoA/5Zngb4OAyd4/s1600/2011-02-19_13-19-13_582.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yieUB6RlWNU/TWBEtzORnxI/AAAAAAAAAoA/5Zngb4OAyd4/s200/2011-02-19_13-19-13_582.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5575531892319559442" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xy4pluK4eAc/TWBEt6eY1rI/AAAAAAAAAoI/0hcua8BCopQ/s1600/2011-02-19_13-19-50_972.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xy4pluK4eAc/TWBEt6eY1rI/AAAAAAAAAoI/0hcua8BCopQ/s200/2011-02-19_13-19-50_972.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5575531894266189490" border="0" /></a>Eddie has been tasked with repainting the dresser and night stands for the jack room.

Lets just say you pay your babysitter a mere $4 per hour.<br /><br />The average high school classroom today is 40 students. The school day starts at 8am and ends at 3pm. There is a 30 minute lunch break and 6 five minute breaks between classes. Minus one hour.<br /><br />$4 per hour for 6 hours is $24 per kid, per day. At 40 kids in the classroom, you're looking at $960.<br /><br />And there are 181 school days in a year... times $960<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:180%;" >$173,760 before taxes. </span><br /><br />Check this out from the <a href="http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos318.htm">Bureau of Labor Statistics</a> on average teacher wages:<br /><p>Median annual wages of kindergarten, elementary, middle, and secondary school teachers ranged from <span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:180%;" >$47,100 to $51,180</span> in May 2008; the lowest 10 percent earned $30,970 to $34,280; the top 10 percent earned $75,190 to $80,970. </p> <p>According to the American Federation of Teachers, beginning teachers with a bachelor's degree earned an average of $33,227 in the 2005-2006 school year.<br /></p><p><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-S_B_FVMN9lE/TXGs7wPUelI/AAAAAAAAA0Y/Q1OiKeDfkIg/s1600/6a00d83452989a69e200e55050862b8834-800wi.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 250px; height: 125px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-S_B_FVMN9lE/TXGs7wPUelI/AAAAAAAAA0Y/Q1OiKeDfkIg/s320/6a00d83452989a69e200e55050862b8834-800wi.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5580431555850173010" border="0" /></a></p><p><br /></p><br /><br /><script type="text/javascript">tweetmeme_style = 'compact';</script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js"></script>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4336075251797515179.post-57266931525116234442011-03-04T13:00:00.000-08:002014-05-21T11:11:27.067-07:00do you ever find yourself asking what is the difference between this and that?<br />

I found the shower curtain at Walmart and the artwork from HomeGoods. The green in the artwork ties in nicely with the green in the shower curtain.<br /><br />So far, no one has even used this bathroom... can we please change that soon? We'd love some overnight guests =) </div><div> </div><div>I'll admit, a little piece of me wishes that we bought an older house because there's nothing that we need to renovate with our new house.

I'm kind of obsessed with the comforter I picked up at none other than <s>Anthropologie</s> Goodwill for ten bucks!! We went to the <a href="http://www.usctrojans.com/sports/m-footbl/archive/usc-m-footbl-sched-2010.html">USC/Oregon football game</a> a few months ago and were killing time while waiting for Domino's to make our pizza and I spotted this baby in the corner. I remember seeing it at <a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/category.jsp?popId=HOME&navAction=top&navCount=6&isSortBy=true&pushId=HOME-BEDDING&id=HOME-BEDDING">Anthropologie </a>a while ago and died a little when I saw it at a thrift store!!! The poor thing had just gotten donated and was waiting for me to take it home!<br /><br />We brought her out of the <a href="http://www.shopgoodwill.com/">Goodwill </a>and our friends looked at us like we had seven heads. Like, really... WTF are you doing buying bedding while we're on our way to a football game!? I'm not gonna pass up a good deal like that!! Took her home, got her dry cleaned and now she looks better than ever in the Jill room.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4336075251797515179.post-81858715921662142982011-03-02T07:00:00.000-08:002011-03-02T07:00:17.161-08:00upstairs bookcase<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: pointer" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5575532471308159410" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Wyzog3tVgDU/TWBFPgH6ibI/AAAAAAAAAow/0tWZcEtvc58/s400/2011-02-19_13-21-57_103.jpg" />Most definitely a work in progress...
