I am loving this song Drink to That All Night by Jerrod Niemann



I just love his voice and he's pretty cute, too!

Happy Friday friends!

The Polar Vortex. I guess this is what this EXTREME cold snap that we had this week is called. I don't know what it is exactly, but whatever it's called it's been rough. Thankfully, today, the high is 30 or something of that nature. Can we say HEAT WAVE {said like HUMP DAY}!

The word hibernating takes on a whole new meaning when it's that cold. We're pretty used to hibernating in the winter, but this is to an extreme, like if you don't need to leave your house for any reason, then just don't.

I am thankful for my new coat that I got last week. It seriously keeps me so WARM HOT. It's also pretty and stylish, which doesn't hurt one bit either. This was us on Monday (the coldest day this week). Off to work and school (daycare)! My car reads -18. Oofta!

The iHeartRadio Country Festival was announced this week. It's in Austin, TX on March 29th. It's like the one in Vegas (for top 40 music), but it's all country. I really want to go, but don't think it will happen this year. It sounds so fun and exciting though. We'll see. Any of my Texas friends planning on going?

I hate the gym this time of year. It's so dang busy. I applaud people and their new years resolutions, but the month of January just really sucks at the gym. But, nonetheless, I'm still going to go and get back to my routine of getting up and going before work a couple times a week. I figured I would give myself this week with the gym being so busy and it being so cold out. My fave Zumba chicka, Mollie, has brought back her Thursday night 1 hour class, and while I hate taking Hailey and sticking her in more daycare at night, it's one night a week and motivates me like no other. Plus, she DOES have fun and enjoys going to the gym, too, so it's not all bad.

So this happened this week.

 photo MetrodomeChair_zps9b4a180d.png

My Husband got a Metrodome chair. They are tearing it down soon and are selling the chairs. Of course my Husband AND my Dad had to get one. They went down together and picked them up. You could also get a certificate of authenticity with it. Of course it was an extra $20. Of course they had to have that, too. I would say I'm a pretty lucky gal to have a big ugly blue chair sitting in my basement. {#sarcasm}

This was pretty much my weekend last weekend and HOPEFULLY I will be doing more of the same this weekend...computer, TV, orange soda, Hailey playing, all while hanging out in my PJ's. I love how Hailey sets up her computer just like Mama's. P.S. I DID go to the gym Saturday morning, so it wasn't all just relaxation and nonsense (not that I have to explain myself).

Hope everyone has a great weekend! Any fun plans?

That's my word for 2014. I have thought about it for the last week and keep coming back to it, so I just decided to make it my word for 2014 and go with it.

I not only want to connect with people better this year, but also things. If that makes any sense.

I want to
...connect with my Husband
...connect with Hailey
...connect with family 
...connect with existing friends
...connect with new friends
...connect with potential clients
...connect with blog readers (my own and others)
...connect with the gym
...connect with music
...connect with my faith
...connect with me.

So there you have it. Have you chosen a word for 2014? Leave me a comment and tell me what it is.

Winter TV for 2014

Winter TV for 2014
Tuesday, January 7, 2014
Read post
If you want to see what I have been watching, you can go see it HERE

There is a couple shows that I've added in since then and one (Eastbound & Down) that I decided not to continue to watch. 

If you are interested in finding out when shows start you can check out the 2014 calendar guide HERE.

Here is my updated list for winter of 2014.

 photo Sunday_zps99ad902f.jpg

Sundays are by far the busiest. Revenge came back this week, The Walking Dead comes back in a couple weeks and now Girls on HBO is back on the 12th (also the night of the Golden Globe's) and Keeping Up With the Kardashians comes back for Season 9 on the 19th. Oofta.

 photo Monday_zps9dd87fb6.jpg

The Bachelor started this week. There was a 1 hour special on Sunday night and then the regular 2 hour show last night.

 photo rs_634x843-131122110055-634_zps4fefbaba.jpg

I continue to watch Hart of Dixie and then I started watching The Blasklist with James Spader. I am so LOVING that show and am so happy it is doing so well.

 photo the-blacklist-poster-ca146b_zps8615b339.jpg

Also, The Following, is coming back. This is a show I watch with Wayne. So excited to see where they take it in Season 2, although I am afraid that it won't make it for a season 3. We'll see though.

 photo the_following_season_2_zps77acb0d4.jpg

 photo Tuesday_zpsfb097568.jpg

Tuesdays are the same with Chicago Fire and The Originals. I do watch the Snooki & Jwoww series, too. More often than not I will have that on in the background while I am doing other things, but I have watched them from the beginning and feel like I need to at least finish it through.

 photo rsz_snooki-and-jwoww-12_zpscc233caf.jpg

 photo Wednesday_zps5e7af180.jpg

Wednesdays will stay the same with Revolution and Nashville and now we add in Chicago PD and The Real World. I am so excited for Chicago PD. If you've been reading for awhile you know my obsession with Chicago Fire.  I'm hoping this lives up to the hype.

 photo Chicago_PD_Promotional_Logo_zps42b6731d.jpg

I've watched most of all the Real Worlds, and this one is no different. I'm happy that they are adding a bonus layer of their ex's to spice it up a bit. There is for sure to be drama.

 photo 456x330_zpsaad2a3f4.jpg

 photo Thursday_zps49c58e71.jpg

Thursdays will be the same with The Vampire Diaries and Parenthood.

 photo Friday_zps9b18738b.jpg

Fridays will be the same with Carrie Diaries.

 photo Saturday_zps8c80148d.jpg

 photo snl_zps7e9fbfcd.png

If I like who is on SNL, than I will watch it, but lately I haven't been thinking its funny. Just dumb. More often than not, I'm usually in bed asleep or on my way there.

So that's that. Leave me a comment and let me know what you have been watching or what you think I should check out.
