Miscellany Monday 5/16/11

I'm joining lots of other bloggers over at lowercase letters in Miscellany Monday. 

1. I went for my first wellness physical in 10 years. Yes, I realize that's stupid, considering I go for dentist appointments, eye doctor appointments and 'lady-doctor' appointments, but for some reason I've been afraid of going to the doctor. It ended up being totally fine.
Plus, no copay because it's a welness visit??? Extra bonus.
Just another reason why I should have been doing this annually for the past six years.
Now I know.

By the way, it's also not a good idea to take Benadryl and Zyrtec all year long to control allergies.

2. We washed my husband's bathrobe and now it is leaving little babies (it is shedding like crazzzzy) everywhere in our apartment.

3. I brought several scrapbooks home from my parents' to scan in the old photos. I seriously love thumbing through snapshots of my parents when they were little and from early in their marriage.

This photo is lovingly referred to as the Kennedy Shot because my dad looks like JFK (he's all the way in the back) and my uncle (striped shirt) looks like Bobby Kennedy. Love it!!

4. Clinique's revamped Chubby Sticks are so worth the $15.00. They glide on like a gloss but have saturated color like a lipstick. I remember these (a long time ago, maybe 8 years ago??)when you had to actually sharpen them and they were much too dry to wear without gloss. Now they are an absolute dream.

5. Been thinking lots about miss Paige. She and her husband are anxiously awaiting the birth of their first child and she has been one of the most graceful expectant moms I've met, just embracing the blessing in her life and going with the flow. If anyone can handle mommy-hood it will be her.

Our photographer snapped this shot of us together at our wedding.
