Tagged.

Okay, so Tiffany tagged me. She tells me that this means I must 1) list seven random things and blog about them here; 2) tag seven others to do the same; and, 3) list those seven here and comment on their blogs to tell them they've been tagged. Well, I can definitely do the first. However, I don't know that I know seven others to tag. I'm new to this blog thing. So. I'm gonna do it...I'm gonna break the rules and the "tag chain" or whatever it is. I'll list my seven things but not tag anyone else. Does this mean bad karma? I'll chance it. ;)

 1. I recently got new speakers for my desktop computer so that I can watch/listen to dvds at night while I work. I'm so excited about this. I don't generally listen to music but love the background noise of a well-loved movie. Yay!

2. The boys and I had such a fun time at the park today...I haven't taken them by myself in awhile now. My little Micah is such a different boy than the other two were. He was climbing the "rock" wall, going down the big slides and learned that he could hang from the little bar...such an adventurer!

 

3. I've been wanting new sandals for the summer, right? I thought I'd finally figured out what I wanted...some fun Dansko Lolitas in Cognac. I went to my local good shoe store tonight to check sizes (they didn't have the color I wanted) only to discover that I need a 36. Not many places carry a 36. If you find one, could you let me know? Or if you have recommendations for other sandals...looking for something with awesome support (so a day of walking around in them isn't going to kill me), nothing that goes between my toes (hate that for some reason), a slight heel would be dandy, and fun yet stylish if possible. I'm a practical sort, so they need to go with many things, too.

4. Ceiling fans make me dizzy. Seriously, the lighting section at stores like Home Depot freak me out. I avoid them.

5. I love the look of stitching on layouts but can't bring myself to do it because my sewing machine scares me. (Noah's actually watched the instructional video about my sewing machine more times than I have (okay, more times than any person really aught to) so maybe I should get him to to it.)

6. I started a mini album of lists yesterday...lists like shows I want to see and books I want to read...because I'm always forgetting when I'm at Blockbuster or the library, know what I mean? Besides, I have all these fun little mini albums and thus far haven't made many of them into actual books. ;) I'm thinking I'll add pages about people I've been meaning to write to and places I want to go and all sorts of other things. Cool. 

7. I have the coolest neighbor. She volunteered to watch the boys once a month so Nathan and I could go out on a date night. Tonight was one of those nights. We went out to dinner and just hung out without kids for awhile. Gotta love date nights.

Yay! So, there are my seven random things. Since I didn't actually tag anyone...feel free to consider yourself tagged if you just have seven random things you want to get off your chest... ;)
