It's That Time Again...Fall TV

It's That Time Again...Fall TV

You guys...I am so excited that all the fall shows are coming back within the next couple weeks. Yay for zero productivity. Am I right? Such is life in Minnesota when it's too cold to go out and do anything. What better way to spend time indoors than watching TV.

Like I said all my shows that I watch start coming back this next week. Once they are all back, this is what my week will look like in a nutshell.

The Emmy's are on tonight and then Sunday's after this week is:

Revenge

The 3rd season starts this week. I've loved this show since day one and I'm excited to see where they take it and if it will be able to sustain a possible 4th season.

Eastbound & Down

The 4th and final season starts this week. Thank god it's the last season. Although it's a funny show, it's also quite stupid. But I watch this one with the Husband, and once I start a series I feel the need to finish. Right?

The Walking Dead

The 4th season starts again on 10/13, so a little later than most, but I'm still excited none the less. I also watch this one with Wayne. We are both so excited to see where this one goes, too. It ended on such a cliffhanger last season. Also, I just saw online that AMC is working on a spin-off from this show. THAT will be interesting.

Hart of Dixie

Season 3 is coming back. This is one of those feel good shows that I watch.

Chicago Fire

The 2nd season starts this week. Woo-hoo! I recently watched Season 1 and am probably the most excited for this show...tied with Nashville.

The Originals

This will be the regular night for this new series. It is a spinoff from The Vampire Diaries. I'm already invested in the main characters, so I know this is a show I will be watching on the regular.

Revolution

Again, I am excited to see where they take this into season 2.

Nashville

Like I said, I am tied with Chicago Fire on most anticipated premiere this week. I've been dying from seeing the previews. Obviously they can't kill off Rayna, but where does this leave her relationship with Deacon. Can't wait!

The Vampire Diaries

This is the one show I am most worried about. With the premiere of The Originals and those cast members not being on THIS show, I am eagerly anticipating where they will take this to sustain another season past season 5.

Parenthood

 

I can't believe it is season 5 already of this show. I feel like it just started and I still love it just as much as the first season. I'm interested to see how they transition the characters from last season into this season. They went through some major things last season, so I don't know where they are going to go from there. Looking forward to it very much. 

The Carrie Diaries

I watched all of season 1 and then heard they were not renewing it, but was SO excited the CW decided to bring it back. I love CW, for their feel-good teen dramas. Also, confession....I've never seen a full episode of SITC. Don't hate me! It is on my list to start watching.

Kendra on Top

This started last week. I love her and I always will.

Saturday Night Live

P.S. This is just existing shows (minus The Originals on Tuesdays) that are coming back for another season. This doesn't include any NEW shows that are premiering for the first time.I have my eye on a few that I am going to try and catch for the first time. We'll see how they pan out.

Also, I watch The Following with the Husband and all I know is as of right now it is scheduled to come back in 2014. Woohoo!

Any other shows I am forgetting about or should check out?

Happy Friday!! Sorry, I've been a little MIA this week with no posts. I feel like I have so much going on, but nothing going on all at the same time. It's been a good week overall, so that's always positive.

I'm linking up with Darci for 5 on Friday to share 5 little tidbits about my week.

I've failed to blog about or mention that I've been getting my house cleaned for about the last month or so. They come every other Wednesday and it's glorious!! Seriously, it's such an anxiety reliever for me to know that it's all done and I don't have to worry about it. Plus, I love that it leaves me more time in the evenings with Hailey and on weekends with Wayne. Our time together as a family is VERY limited, so I like that fact that I don't have to use our family time away to be cleaning.

Wayne's recovery is going well. He's been sleeping in the recliner in the basement since he's been home last Wednesday night. I think he's finally ready to come back to bed though. You can really only sleep in a chair for so long, even if you are recovering from surgery. Although, I've enjoyed having our whole king size bed to myself, I miss him terribly.

SO excited about Fall TV starting this week. I have a post coming on that this weekend.

The new iPhone is out today! Woohoo! I downloaded the new ios7 late Wednesday night, so I've just been able to play around with it yesterday, but I have to say I really like it. Basically they are trying to compete with android and windows phones, so I totally get why all the new features are the way they are. I am due for a phone upgrade, but Wayne is not yet and I think we might switch to the Verizon network at that point. He gets a deal through his work and he's been SO not happy lately with our Sprint service. So we'll see. Either way, we WILL be getting the newest iPhone 5s.

Last but not least, we are doing the Vikings 5k tomorrow morning. We have to get up a lot earlier than we normally do and get downtown by 7:30 am which is race start time. Totally sucky and it kind of snuck up on me. I haven't been to the gym or been working out since I sprained my ankle about 5 weeks ago. We are walking/running it with Hailey in the jogging stroller. It should be fun, it's just SO freaking early!

How was your week? Anything fun planned this weekend?

Linking up with Neely for Never Ever Ever.



Never Ever Ever,

Will I hate football season. I'm such an NFL girl. No college for me.

Will I NOT be a Vikings fan. No matter how awful they are. We bleed purple.

Will I NOT be obsessed with TV. It's my favorite hobby and my escape away from the real world.

Will I NOT be grateful for my DVR. No explanation needed.

Will I NOT ever own an iPhone. So user friendly and LOVE everything about it. Can't wait to upgrade to the new 5S soon.

Will I NOT ever LOVE my iPad. It's so convenient, fun and great for Hailey, too.

Will I hate getting a mani/pedi. Holla!

Happy Tuesday folks!

So this song wasn't supposed to be released until today, but of course with the way the music industry has been lately it was leaked yesterday.



Here it is...

Work Bitch by Britney Spears



If you know me, you know I am a HUGE Britney fan. I've been waiting for new music from her for awhile now. She did collaborate with will.i.am for Scream & Shout, but for me that was such a tease. I really like this song. In my eyes she can do no wrong, and I still loved her even through all of her craziness. I can't wait to see what the rest of her album brings.

What do you think of this new song?

Happy Friday Friends!!

Our neighbors are crazy. Like whoa. Bat shit crazy. We are renting. So it's not permanent. Thank god. There are literally like 12 people that live in the house and they all have issues. Yelling. Screaming. Health issues with the elderly. It's sad really. The cops and ambulances have been there numerous times, but thankfully Wayne has an old high school friend that is on our cities police department, so when ever anything happens, he finds out from her what's going on. It's all stupid little disagreements. Nonsense really. I guess it's just more annoying for us. Anyhow, I can't wait until the spring until we can start looking at houses and hopefully get out of here. I want a house of our own,  more than anything right now, besides maybe a tropical vacation.

I finished season 1 of Chicago Fire and it's one of those shows where you get depressed when it's over. Ugh. I can't wait for Season 2 to start in just a couple weeks. Also, the season finale of Mistresses was this last Monday. Anyone else watch that? I really like it and hope it comes back for another season. The season finale of The Newsroom is this Sunday, too. Already? This season was only 9 episodes. I'm so not ready for it to be done and I feel like they have a ton of wrapping up loose ends to do. We'll see.

I've been obsessed with Peanut Buster Parfaits from DQ. That's all I ever get. Do you get the same thing every time or change it up? It's nearing the end of good ole summer here in Minny and I think I'm trying to hold onto anything I can.

Love THIS post about being a mother. Go read it and tell me what you think. I happen to think it's spot on.

I got this Nivea lip balm this week. It smells so good and has a shimmery tint to it. I love it to give my lips quick moisture and color at the same time.

Linking up with Darci for Five on Friday.

How was your week friends?
