What does GTKY mean? I read it as "get to Kentucky," but that's probably wrong....
1. I'm currently working on de-cluttering the house. H has to tear out some shrubs along the side of the house that are ugly and getting eaten by bag worms (like caterpillars but they turn into moths, not pretty butterflies). 2. Hmm. Although our anniversary was recent, not really. Maybe I'll whip out some lingerie one of these days lol. 3. I like the topics discussed on WC currently. It would be fun to have more new threads every day! 4. Ahh, I'm not great at organizing. 5. My dog was so full this morning. I gave her a dollop of cottage cheese on her dog food and she devoured it all. Not sure how "fun" this is!
1: My next project is painting the window seat/bay window white. I will post pictures when it is done in a few days
2: Nothing planned so far, but I know we will be going out for our anniversary next week. I already got a babysitter.
3: I wish more posters had crazy people they know on Facebook or neighbors, etc to post about. I love laughing at those kinds of things.
4: Labeling everything makes me more motivated to put things back where they belong. It's obvious when you cut corners.
Also, Ikea. They have so many kitchen organizers for cheap. My cupboards always look great.
5: My soon to be SIL kept mooning people on Saturday (she was wasted) and at one point someone looked out their window and she was just walking down the street, in the rain, with her dress held up to her face and everything totally visible. She was yelling "I'm not wearing underwear!" (No shit, we could tell. Lol) I hadn't laughed so hard in ages.
1. What projects are you currently working on right now? House? Self-Improvement? (Bonus Points for Pics!) Nursery and generally getting ready for baby! DH is currently getting quotes to put up a pergola on our back patio, and we'll get some furniture for back there too. So that's his project.
2. Have anything sweet (big/small) planned for your DH in the coming weeks? I'm planning on pushing out a kid for him, does that count?
3. What topics would you like discussed more in WC? Whatever. I like the general nature of things here.
1) I would love to paint our bedroom!! We built our house and it has the builder grade paint color everywhere except the nursery. Boring!!
2) I don't have anything planned we do random sweet things for each other often though so I'm sure something will come up. I made part of his Father's Day gift that he got yesterday so that was pretty sweet of me :-)
3) I like what we discuss! I would love a consistent what's for dinner post maybe Sunday nights or Mondays. I struggle with meals every week or I should say the motivation to plan.
4) I recently found a cleaning schedule on a blog. I do not have it on my phone but it basically has a daily/weekly schedule for cleaning the house. I love lists so it made me very happy and laid it out for me... Don't ask if I have started it!
5) Something fun... I am about to go to the grocery store (super fun for me, seriously!) and I have no idea what's for dinners this week (minus tonight) so I will just walk around till things come to me. I wish I could be paid to do others grocery shopping!
1. What projects are you currently working on right now? House? Self-Improvement? (Bonus Points for Pics!) I just finished a few projects. I went through all my clothes and got rid of half of them. It felt so good. I also went through all of our paperwork and got rid of a bunch. Lastly, I just got caught up in my life scrapbook. Current project: Wedding scrapbook...
2. Have anything sweet (big/small) planned for your DH in the coming weeks? We are going to Canada end of July. That will be fun
3. What topics would you like discussed more in WC? I generally enjoy all the topics discussed. More posts would be awesome though!
4. Favorite organization tips? Home/Calendar/Car Whatever. I'll be watching for other people's responses here. I am always looking for better ways to do things!
5. Tell Me Something Fun When I was in Sweden my friend and I ate Gelato 6 times in one day trying all the various places in the area! DELISH!
1. I've been trying to work on myself lately and get myself in a better place. I am trying to get healthy both mentally and physically.
2. Not really. The next few weeks we are busy so maybe I will bust out the massage oil and give him a few nice back massages.
3. I wish I could post more. I've been so busy that I haven't had time to post. I like what we discuss here.
4. lol I am the most unorganized person.
5. I'm so boring lately. Work, workout if I feel like it, sleep, repeat. I did play will one of the new baby cows the other day. She is pure white and so shy.
1. What projects are you currently working on right now? House? Self-Improvement? (Bonus Points for Pics!) I have a million things I want to do, including things like organizing all the closets and cabinets, planning DD's first birthday party, and organizing our digital photos.
2. Have anything sweet (big/small) planned for your DH in the coming weeks? No, but I did just surprise him with tickets to see the local pro football team for Father's Day. He was thrilled.
3. What topics would you like discussed more in WC? Nothing in particular. I like th variety.
4. Favorite organization tips? Home/Calendar/Car Whatever. I like to set a timer and "race" against it to get my boring, mundane daily chores done.

1. What projects are you currently working on right now? House? Self-Improvement? (Bonus Points for Pics!) Buying a house, haha. I think we've decided to go for it on the home search. We haven't decided for sure on our friends house. I LOVE the main floor but the upstairs is just ok. The ceiling is slanted in and the rooms aren't very big, plus there's no shower in the bathroom upstairs. Trying to decide if that will bother me enough. Also, the school district sucks so we'd either have to move before E is in school or deal with a crappy one for a little while. Hopefully we will find something soonish but I don't even know what we qualify for yet!
2. Have anything sweet (big/small) planned for your DH in the coming weeks? Not really, no, haha. We didn't even do much for Father's Day. I got him a CD drive for his laptop but that's about it.
3. What topics would you like discussed more in WC? Nothing in particular. I just haven't been able to post as much lately so anything is fine!
4. Favorite organization tips? Home/Calendar/Car Whatever. I'm so horribly unorganized, lol. Maybe just getting some bins for things? I like doing that and want more for other things. I keep saying when we move I'll get more organized but it didn't happen last time.. lol.
5. Tell Me Something Fun I'm not that exciting right now, haha. I'm watching OITNB right now, is that fun enough?

1. What projects are you currently working on right now? House? Self-Improvement? (Bonus Points for Pics!) Yard - The previous owners of our house left some big clay planters in our yard. I'm planning to plant some hydrangeas in the next couple weeks. Home Decor - I need to pick out some dining room chairs. I'm also working on a nursery design right now. It's Coney Island/Boardwalk themed.
2. Have anything sweet (big/small) planned for your DH in the coming weeks? No, but this makes me think I should. We are traveling this weekend. Maybe I'll pack some lingerie for some hotel booty.
3. What topics would you like discussed more in WC? Anything and everything. People, myself included, seem to just wait for a randoms post to update on their worlds. Post away!
4. Favorite organization tips? Home/Calendar/Car Whatever. I get lots of plastic organizers from Dollar Tree and use them for drawers, cabinets, and cupboards.
5. Tell Me Something Fun I get to see my BFF this weekend!

1. What projects are you currently working on right now? House? Self-Improvement? (Bonus Points for Pics!) Getting my uterus occupied. No one wants to see that PIP. I have also been working on sprucing up the outside of our rental house as much as possible. It has been neglected for 10 years and needs some color to make it look more inviting. However, I can't do much since it isn't my house and I don't want to put a ton of money into something I will not get paid for and will move away from.
2. Have anything sweet (big/small) planned for your DH in the coming weeks? I am going to his strongman nationals Saturday to support him. Does that count even if I go to all of his comps?
3. What topics would you like discussed more in WC? I feel a wide variety of topics are discussed.
4. Favorite organization tips? Home/Calendar/Car Whatever. I use baskets for everything. I hate clutter so I love just putting things in baskets and hiding them....controlled clutter you may call it. Also, I save my coffee creamer containers and use them to store mixed nuts in at work. The flip top means it doesn't get lost, they are clear so I know what is in it and I don't over eat.
5. Tell Me Something Fun I have a dent in my head.
1. House project: weeding and mulching the terraced garden in our backyard. It's pretty rough looking. My mom has threatened to do it while we're OOT on vacation. I would be so ashamed if that actually happened. Self-improvement: losing a few lbs! I've set specific weight loss goals for the next few months to get back to my happy weight.
2. Nothing. I should because he does an awesome job at solo parenting while I'm traveling.
3. Celebrity gossip!
4. I love my label maker. And Sharpies. And DH bought me a huge pack of scissors from Sam's Club so now I have a pair in practically every room and never have to hunt one down.
5. One time, my coworker rolled down all the windows of the rental car and blasted "Short Dick Man" while we were sitting in a busy gas station parking lot. My other coworker and I were dying of laughter, literally tears rolling down our faces because it was so hilarious and humiliating. (Confession: song was from my iPod.)
