Stuff & Things 8/7

**Saturday night, I ended up on the couch.  That. Should. Never. Happen.  Why?  Oh, well the hubs snores.  That’s nothing new.  But normally when I awake to the wood sawing snoring, I kick him gently nudge him and he rolls over & stops.  Well Saturday night we were both exhausted.  He was out cold, and my futile attempts to roll him over were causing me to wake further and further up.  So finally, I grabbed my pillows and huffed into the living room.  The next day, I bought silicone putty earplugs.  I busted out the big guns, y’all.  I wasn’t playing games anymore.  Those suckers work.  So for under $4 I’ve slept like a baby the last week.  Thank you, Walmart.

**I got a new computer on Tuesday.  It’s true, folks.  My husband spoils me rotten.  It’s so pretty.  And shiny.  And you know not crashing every 30 seconds!  Whoop whoop!  My old computer hasn’t been able to support a new operating system in a few years–so making the jump to the newest one is taking a little getting used to, but I’m loving it.  

**I made this recipe last week and ate it for days.  DAYS!  It was so good I could cry.  I don’t know why it never dawned on me to make stuffed shells.  I’d never had any other than those sad little frozen dinners.  They were surprisingly easy to make and absolutely delish.

**I am absolutely shocked at how many requests I’m getting for a sequel to Yeah, maybe!  It makes me so excited to get back to work!  I know I keep saying this, but you all have no idea how much of a dream come true all of this is for me.  I’m still walking around on cloud nine.  And you know what?  There’s a lot of nail polish up here!!

**Every time the bestie calls me, my heart jumps into my throat.  Because yup.  It’s that time.  We are officially in the baby could come any minute zone.  And I am so. freaking. excited!!!  I’m doing my best to make sure everything I can possibly arrange is in order because the second that call comes in–I’m out the door!

**Remember about a month ago when I shared that someone from my past passed away?  He was a die hard Broncos fan his entire life.  His uncle wrote to Peyton Manning, and the next thing we all know Chris has made national news.  Peyton honored him by wearing a towel during camp with his name on it.  Manning… what a stand up guy.  Find the story here.  Chris’s family is very important to me, and I know that this is something they appreciate so, so much.
