What's Up Wednesday - March 29th

1. What we're eating this week

Monday: leftovers

Tuesday: Taco Tuesday! Shrimp & Pineapple Soft Tacos

Wednesday: Crispy Catfish & Lemon Cream Sauce

Thursday: I am having Lasik done Thursday morning so we will most likely be having leftovers

Friday: Kevin is having Lasik so we will be hanging at home. We usually order pizza or burgers but since I have a BA meal I might make this....or save for Sunday and order pizza! lol

Spice-rubbed Roast Beef with Collard greens & Potato Salad

2. What I'm reminiscing about

eek - nothing currently?

3. What I am loving

Ryan's new room color!

We went from Serena and Lily Grass (no longer available)

to Repose Gray by Sherwin Williams

Selecting paint is a PAIN - and especially Gray paint! Ugh...but I found this color and I am in LOVE. I think we might change Hayden's to this once she is ready for a room update.

Here is a great review of Repose Gray

4. What we've been up to

Spring Break

Charleston (post coming soon!)

5. What I'm dreading

Wearing my glasses for three days before surgery! It's torture!

I know I look happy in this pic AND that is only because there is less than 24 hours left of wearing these!!!

6. What I'm working on

So I finally made progress on Ryan's room but (surprise surprise) it isn't finished. I am having a hard time figuring out what to do with his walls. I really want to do some shelves for his Lego creations & all the little LEGO men.

I love this idea from Jedi Craft Girl for the little LEGO men. Looks easy enough :)

And I am just trying to figure out if I want to put a small desk (because eventually he will need one) or just work with the little storage cube we currently have. My only hesitation is that if I hang stuff on the wall now, it will have to change later when he does get a desk. That and what color to do? White, Gray or dark wood like the rest of his furniture?

7. What I'm excited about

Lasik-- It's finally happening!!!

Why have I waited this long??? Well, I wanted to wait until we were done having kids....and nursing...and well then life just kept happening. And before I knew it I was 34 years old and working on my 22nd year of contacts!!! Yeah. When I realized that I had been wearing contacts for over 20 years I definitely felt old.

So excited to get it done! And Kevin too!

8. What I'm watching/reading

Currently reading All the Missing Girls and I am about half-way through.

So far so good....it's hard to put down at night. I hope I can finish it this weekend!

And we started watching Homeland - I didn't realize season six was out. A little late to the game BUT it's kinda nice to have a bunch to catch up on.

9. What I'm listening to

I heard the song "Greatest Love Story" by LANco last week and I instantly fell in love with it. I don't really know much about this group and I only found three other songs by them - they aren't really the same kinda vibe so I am not sure how I feel about that.

Also, I love Disney music and have no idea why I don't have any of it to play in the car - but now I do. First up:

Lastly, on the subject of music, I realized that I desperately need a good mix for running. I don't run all that often but when I do I want music and I just don't have a good mix quite yet.

10. What I'm wearing

Right now I am loving all the ruffle sleeves and cold shoulder tops!
