ten on tuesday

image from here.               
1. i can't watch "this old house" without feeling all sorts of homesick for massachusetts. their accents kill me! not to mention the general scenery and new england architecture. and fall is coming up... it's safe to say you can expect a lot of longing for the east coast around here in the near future!
2. i came across this awesome post again and i loved it even more the second time. being new is hard and even though you might not be new, other people are! seriously, such a good read. 
3. once one thing gets fixed around this place, another thing gets busted. now, our swamp cooler (the only way we really can cool our house) is broken and the next couple of days are supposed to be in the 100s!! 
4. ruby is seriously so funny. she has peek-a-boo down pat. she just can't say "boo" very well. she says "ba". and she's very enthusiastic. it's like it's her grand trick.  if you have her do one trick (such as clapping her hands) she'll always finish it off with covering her eyes and a loud "ba"! i'm really going to try to get it on video because it is just so cute. 
5. i cleaned and scrubbed out the fridge yesterday and it is so nice to see a clean , organized sight when i open up that door! it was pretty nasty...
6. i would love love love to take this class. i really need to learn how to use my camera. if only it weren't so expensive! 
7. i'm really happy because dan has gained a little bit of weight and now he can fit into pants from regular stores and not just special order!!! 
8. i finally need glasses! this has been a life-long dream. seriously. and i only need them to read in the dark or see far away. perfect. now i just need to pick out the perfect frames...
9. we ran out of milk and went to the walmart. all i can say is that they had their school supplies out and i couldn't help but get some things. i really love school supplies. who can resist spiral notebooks for 17 cents each!? i got 9 notebooks, 2 packs of index cards, 2 rolls of scotch tape, fresh pack of sharpies, and some (washable) crayons for miss ruby. that's pretty good for self control, right? 
10. ethan's coming over tonight to do laundry. oh how things would have been different if i'd had an older sister when i was in college!
