Lambeau & A Link-Up Worth Joining

Howdy Ya'll!   Today I'm just showing some quick photos from this.  My breakfast at Lambeau Field.   (Where I finally got to meet Kodie! - who is taller than I thought BTW haha)  And then an announcement at the bottom that you won't want to miss.

Arriving at one of my favorite places in the world.
Jarrett Bush.  Cornerback for the Green Bay Packers who caught an interception in the Superbowl!
Getting his autograph.  He may have called me "sweetie".  And I may have melted.

Ok Ya'll.  (I swear I'm from Wisconsin) October 22-26, Katie and I would like to introduce the link-up for Friendship Week.
I have been wanting to post certain things about friends and decided that this would be a great way.  Want to know what's really cool?  If you link-up every day for Friendship week (button coming Friday) then you will be entered to win a giveaway.   You could win a gift card of your choice for $20.  Target? Starbucks?  Bath & Body Works?  You decide!   You have till 12:01-12:00 everyday...so no rush.

TV Review

Ahhh...TV has returned.  I was planning on doing a post about this awhile ago, but so many other bloggers did it.  So maybe to change it up a bit, a few weeks later, I am telling you the shows that I have found worth seeing.

Of all the new shows I have started watching, I have only dropped one.  I am on the fence about two.  It's always fun to see new shows but I really did not need so many to watch.

Favorite New Shows
Partners - It is created by the men who created Will & Grace.  And you can tell.  The gay character in this show is a Jack reincarnation.  It bothered me at first, and the show can be cheesy...however, it makes me laugh.  A lot.  

The Mindy Project - Mindy is hilarious!

The New Normal - Maybe I am just in love with gay characters.  They are so funny.

Go On - Truthfully this one is hit or miss.  I love Matthew Perry so I will continue to watch, but there is room for improvement.

X Factor - It took me awhile to get into it but now that they have it narrowed down I have fallen in love with quite a few acts.

Most Excited Returns
Scandal - This show just keeps surprising you left and right.
Revenge
Dexter


Out
Ben & Kate - Just could not get into it.  I didn't even laugh once.

Sad to see Leaving
30 Rock - Their final season is only 13 episodes long!  I think it is time for the show to end but come on, at least give us a full season!

On the Fence
Nashville - Parts seem interesting, some not.  I'll give it a few more episodes.

Chicago Fire - I see this as my new "Hart of Dixie".  A bad, cheesy, drama-like show.  But one I get sucked into.  It also gets a few more episodes before I make my final decision.

Other Returning Faves
Dancing With The Stars
Intervention
How I Met Your Mother
Two Broke Girls
Raising Hope
Happy Endings
Hart of Dixie
Law & Order: SVU - (I still miss Stabler! But it's not as bad as I thought it would be.)

Criminal Minds
Suburgatory
Parks & Recreation
The Office - Only watching because I've somewhat followed it through the years and want to see the final season.
Up All Night
The Amazing Race

I have left out some shows that are non prime-time, and are on a break right now (Not Rachel & Ross "we're on a break" way though, so don't worry)

Like always I have showcased my horrible addiction to TV.  Sometimes I'm ashamed, sometimes I'm not.  At least I am entertained.   

Have you started watching a new show you absolutely love?  Or were disappointed in one a la Ben & Kate?

Oh!  And come back tomorrow!  Announcing a week long link-up with Katie, and if you participate?  You will be entered to win a giveaway exclusively for this link-up!!!

Accumulation

So a few months ago I decided to finally simplify my life.

First stop:  of course...I started with the bathroom closet.   Do you want to see what is in there?  It's actually quite embarrassing.   I swear I had products from High School.  Do you remember those perfumes that had emotions like Sweet, Groovy, Smart, etc?  I still had 'em.

My husband has literally threatened to call the show 'Hoarders' on me.   Just wait till you see "my" room.  Which includes art projects I did in middle school.  

Anyways - I did A LOT of throwing away.  Mostly because I didn't use hardly anything and it was over 3 years old!!!


Then it was on to figuring out what eyeliner, lip liner, etc to keep.  Of course I needed to compare colors.  And this is what my hand/wrist ended up looking like.   

Next step (yes, this next step is months later...Queen of the Procrastinators here).   Is taking this really ugly paper off my bathroom closet shelves, spray painting them, then finally putting things back in it's place.  Because right now?  All of it (except the necessities) is in a laundry basket...in the guest room...covered in a sheet so my son can't get to it...for months now.  I really need to get this rolling.  Wish me luck.

Today...

Today...

I am going here. 
Lambeau Field.  Home of the Green Bay Packers.

To do this...

Breakfast.

Guss & I get to have breakfast with a Packer.  Which means, meeting a current Packer player, getting an autograph, getting a picture, and entering a lot of raffles at Lambeau Field.  I don't care if it is an unknown current player but the fact we get to go and have breakfast at Lambeau Field for free is awesome.  Thank you Klout!!!

Come back tomorrow!  I will be here!!!
