10 on 10 {February 2014}

I truly enjoy participating in the 10 on 10 project every month but it's really hard to be creative when you spent most of your day in a beige office with a beige desk and a beige chair and beige...you get the idea.  This month I decided to go with a theme for my 10 photos, not the most exciting theme, but a theme none the less.

0900

I'm trying to make this manicure last as long as possible but I think it's about time for a new one.

0900

Stamping documents.

1000

Taking notes during a meeting, and f/u means follow up, not what your dirty mind is thinking.

1100

Off to buy a sandwich to go with the soup I brought from home.

1200

Lunch time.

1300

Sending emails.

1400

Making a call.

1500

Entering data.

1600

Snack time.  There is a new farmer selling strawberries daily down the street from our house and I can't get enough!  The homemade whipped cream is delicious too.

1700

My honey took the car today so he dropped me off and picked me up from work, it was nice to start and end my work day with him.

10 on 10 {January 2014}

Today is the 10th! It's time for another link up with Rebekah for 10 on 10!  I love documenting the little details of the day.  Some days are more exciting than others and since the 10th fell on a work day this month, its one of the latter, but I forced myself to snap 10 photos in 10 hours anyways.

0800

How I start my day at work: tea + news.

0900

1st task of the day, calling hospitals to check patient statuses.

1000

Temptations in the break room...I resisted!

1100

Sitting in a meeting, enjoying the view from my boss's office.

1200

I made sandwiches for our potluck today...and then I cheated on our cleanse!

1300

The CEO was at the office today so they sent me out to pick up some lunch.

1400

Then my awesome husband brought me lunch, our first non home cooked meal of the year.

1500

Taking messages and filing, another day at the office as a temp.

1600

I CHEATED AGAIN!  Y'all, nachos are my FAVORITE junk food and when I saw them at the pot luck I just couldn't resist.  If you remember last year I ate paleo for a week and my first non paleo meal was nachos.  It might be my favorite food.

1700

Finally finished organizing a 2 foot stack of papers into binders for the boss man, and with that it was time to go home.

I love participating in 10 on 10.  10 photos in 10 hours on the 10th day of each month.  It's super easy (when you remember to participate) and always fun.  My photos are from my iPhone but one day I'll start doing this with my actual camera!

0800

Shower time.

 

0900

I never leave the house without mascara.

 

1000

At our local sports bar to watch the Bengals game.

 

1100

Not having a good week in fantasy football.

 

1200

My husband and his father discussing the football action.

 

1300

Leaving Kristy's.  I'd heard about the spankings but this is the first time I've witnessed one.  Apparently it's for newbies...luckily we missed the initiation on our first visit.

 

1400

Relocated to the couch for more football watching.

 

1500

That quickly turned into nap time for one of us.

 

1600

Blogging on my husbands computer for, what I hope is, the last time.

(mine has been repaired and should be here tomorrow)

 

1700

Jason wanted frozen pizza for dinner so that's what he got.  He started with 5 slices but when he turned his back to give me a "thank you for making dinner" kiss, our turd of a dog reached up and snatched a piece.



10 on 10 {April}

This year is completely flying by!  I wish time would slow down but since it won't, I'm grateful for the 10 on 10.  It helps me remember to take time to enjoy my every day life.

0800

Woke up to a throbbing hormone headache...this stuff is my miracle drug!

0900

Driving past my favorite produce market on my way to teach.

1000

"Teaching" English today...I just don't know what to teach some days! 

(suggestions are welcome ladies!)

 1100
Quick stop for lunch on my way home.

1200

Putting dinner in the crock pot. Intramural volleyball started this week and I'm attempting to play (for the first time in 15 years...you should see my poor arms!) which means we don't sit down for dinner until at least 2000, and that's if I do use the crock pot! 

1300

Finally got someone to answer the phone and CTC and was able to schedule my history midterm.  I'm so close to being finished with school!

1400

Mailbox JACKPOT!

1500

Hitting up the 100 yen store for some care package goodies! 

1600

I've never met a dog that likes to play fetch as much as Huck...my poor arm is tired from throwing the ball! 

1700

I have missed this game more than I realized...I've also lost any skills I might have had 15 years ago!

10 on 10 {March}

I love the 10 on 10 challenge every month and I love it even more when I remember to participate!

0800

We babysat overnight last night so we were up early (for us, on a Sunday).

0900

It was 70 degrees here all weekend so it was time for my 1st at home pedi of the year.

1000

Much better!  All ready for spring!

1100

We ALMOST made it to church on time...almost!

1200

Drinks on the patio at the golf course for lunch.

1300

Two bags of treats later and Buster finally figured out he can just push his way through our new screen door that has a magnetic opening.

1400

Folding origami.

1500

Play time at the laundromat (they wanted to go, we didn't drag them, I promise!)

 1600

A nasty "sand" storm rolled through town today...on a normal day you would see mountains in the background of this image.  Today it was just an ugly brown sky.

1700

Picking up some veggies to go with dinner tonight.

I hope everyone had a great 10th of March.  Tomorrow is the two year anniversary of the great Tohoku earthquake/tsunami.  Please take a moment out of your day to say a prayer for the people of Tohoku and Japan.
