Hey, It's Okay Tuesday!

I got this idea from Glamour magazine. They have a section called Hey, It’s Okay and will list a bunch of things to be okay about. You're welcome to join in and do something like this on your diary. Doesn't have to be on a Tuesday either.

----------------------


To have not really been surprised that JLo is divorcing Marc Anthony. Hasn’t she been married quite a bit? I think she was only with that bald dancer for like 5 months.


To take scalding hot showers. I love them.


To not be planning on seeing the newest Harry Potter movies. I only watched the first 3 and left it at that.


To have downloaded the soundtrack to Wicked on iTunes. Tommy doesn’t like it. He’s all, “What are these women singing about now?”


To be all caught up with Big Brother. What are Brendan and Rachel doing back? And where are Brendan’s balls? (He pouts a lot.)


To promise to post pictures of the new house this week. I didn’t forget, I swear! Just don’t mind the messes.


To not care how dirty those playplaces in fast food restaurants are. They give me a few minutes of peace. The kids can get all germy and I can check Facebook.


To have just ordered the new Jennifer Weiner book on Amazon. It’s called Then Came You.


To bust out laughing when I see a photo of a woman carrying a purse as big as she is. This reminds me of the circus for some reason.


To hate how I still can't see my followers. It's just a blank box for me. And it's the same on other blogs so I can't follow them back. I'm not being rude, I swear. I just can't see the follower boxes. Is there a way to fix this?

  1. Marc and J Lo hit the 7 year itch. I would want to leave if I married Skelator, too.

  2. I was having the same problem with viewing my butt sniffers (what I call my wonderful followers).

    Try moxzilla, try IE with the chrome or without the chrome. Just try different versions of internet explorer. You may strike gold on one of them. At work I have to use Chrome, but at home I don't... its different.

  3. Now I need to go order the new Jennifer Weiner book-loved all her others I've read. Thanks for telling me about it!

    ReplyDelete
  4. I think Ms. Rowling "sequeled" her original story (book 1) to death - it became pretty dull after book 3.

  5. I think Marc Anthony has been married more than her. Regardless, celebrity marriages don't work.

    And I have only seen the first, and the very last (just watched it) Harry Potter movies. I don't feel like I missed a thing.

  6. I love Wicked, such a great show and beautiful soundtrack:)

    I may need to go order that book now too!

  7. Yeah, this was actually quite LONG for JLo to be married. But, I'm not sure she's totally to blame, he tends to be quite the wanderer from what I've read.

    I can not even THINK of taking a scalding hot shower. I'm a lukewarm to cold showerer.

    And....I think I've only seen the first 2 Harry Potters. I love the books, but I just don't get the mania for the movies.

    Finally....yay for the house picture coming.

  8. I wish I knew how to fix the follower problem. I can still add blogs to follow though through my dashboard.

    Can't wait to see pictures of the new house! How exciting. :o)

    ReplyDelete
  9. Yes, pics of house to come!!!! Hoping you are starting to find your groove in OK, even though it is as hot as Satan's kitchen.

    ReplyDelete
  10. LOVE Wicked! I think I only saw the first 2 or 3 HP movies as well...just not my thing.

    Let us know how you like the book - I read that it is a bit different from her usual style.

    ReplyDelete
  11. I can see your followers. wierd. I love Big Brother. I wish Brendan and Rachel were not back. I was hoping Will and Boogey were. I love scalding showers too.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Oh I need to get the Wicked soundtrack! Thanks for reminding me!

    Hot showers are THE BEST.

  13. LOVE hot showers--but not in this hellish HOT HOT HOT weather!!!!

    I miss the swimming pool that is closed right now because it turned GREEN!!!! They are working on it, but not fast enough for me!!!! :)

  14. Hot showers are the best!!

    I still can't comment on some friends pages.. but can on others.. (ie. Yours!)

    And I was probably the big purse lady you were laughing at...haha.. believe me.. I hate carrying a huge purse..but with potty training and all 10 toys that Joshua HAS to bring along.. it's the only thing that works. lol. =)

  15. I have no interest in Harry Potter. Or Twilight. I usually feel so very out of the loop whenever another movie in the line comes out.

    As for JLo, I'm actually surprised she and Marc Anthony lasted as long as they did.

    ReplyDelete
  16. I bathe in nothing less than scalding water. My husband says that it's not right when I get out of the bath and I am red. LOL!

    How about NEVER reading a Harry Potter book, or seen the movies....or cared. Just doesn't do it for me.

    Love this column!! :)

  17. Brendon is a little whiner! He and Rachel are sooo annoying.

    ReplyDelete
  18. i am the same way with play spaces. Isn't that what soap and water is for?

    Also, his name was Chris Judd and he was HOT!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Man, I thought JLo and Marc Anthony had a chance since they've been married "so long."

    I can see your follow box!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Loved your list. Hot showers are the best on my back with the massaging shower head. Who really cares about JLo and MA? It's all for publicity anyway. And to create artistic children. I finally downloaded Mozilla Firefox and use it for Blogger and have had 0 problems with it. Might want to check it out. I was having the same issues as you.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Ugh I can't believe Brenden and Rachel are back! He really does need to grow some balls!

    Love your blog by the way!

    ReplyDelete
  22. My follower box was empty for over a week and just fixed itself. I tried deleting it and re-installing it. Blogger hasn't worked right since they "upgraded" it. Can't these people leave well enough alone?? Geesh!

    Looking forward to seeing your new home!!

  23. Reminds you of the circus? Are there clowns in that big purse?

    ReplyDelete
  24. I'm frustrated over the follower box as well. I thought it was just me.

    ReplyDelete
  25. i really love this post idea, try to comment when I remember to :p

    the playspaces? dirty is good for kids once in a while.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I love Wicked! But i love Harry Potter too!

    I think it's okay to wonder why she married Marc Anthony in the first place. He is creepy looking to me!

    ReplyDelete
  27. I love scalding hot showers. My water never gets hot enough in the new apartment, and I've been known to shower with the cold off, just hoping it will get hot!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Apparently, Marc Anthony was a total a-hole. She wrote song lyrics about how he was a jerk to her.. but then again, she is known for all her famous marriages and engagements. They were such an awkward couple too. I feel bad for the kids!

    I take scalding hot showers too! When my husband gets in the shower with me he acts like it's burning his skin off.. wimp! Can't wait to see pics of the house :)

    ReplyDelete
  29. Scalding showers are the only way to go. My hubby is amazed that I don't broil to death :D

  31. Ever since Blogger exploded a while back things haven't been quite right. Every time something weird happens I've been Tweeting about it and using the @blogger thingymabob. After I send enough tweets it seems to fix itself.

    I like to think my tweets have that much impact.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Is there another kind of shower besides scalding hot?
    Can you please tell me "hey, it's ok to smack your teenager over the head when he won't turn his phone volume down and he gets 20 texts per minute while you're trying to watch Cupake Wars?" Not that thats happening or anything.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I'm addicted to BB too....and LOL at your comment about Brendan having NO Balls! So True! Can't stand Rachels laugh...ugh!

    Cant wait to see pic of your new place.
    I have probs with my follower box going blank too. But then it comes back. Its screwed up.
    Thanks for the comments and stopping by my blog!

  34. I L-O-V-E hot showers! I had to quit them while I was pregnant.. I would get really light-headed :( BUT! YAY!!! I'm not pregnant anymore, so bring 'em on!

    *I just rolled my eyes when I heard about J-HO (at the dentist office! ...in case if it ever becomes one of those "Where were you when.." moments...)

    ReplyDelete
  35. Love this!!

    Marc Anthony was too ugly for JLO anyway.....We all knew it!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I'm so with you on the playgrounds. We need a little time to ourselves. I just make her eat first and then let her loose. Good times.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Is there any other kind of shower?

    ReplyDelete
  38. In defense of Harry Potter books and movies...Ok, I'm a literary buff and the Potter books have taken our our age to new brilliant heights. She did not dumb-down her writing and we have a generation of kids who have benefited from it tremendously. I can't believe one woman continued to prove that WE WOMEN can be literary GIANTS! The imagination and links to every corner of life in her stories have touched so many. Her brain must be full of amazing stories...need more.

    Off that rant. As for Marc Anthony...didn't he dump his first wife or woman that he had children with to run to Jennifer? I remember not being impressed with his "macho" facade. I imagine his first wife is trying to elegantly hold back her "I told you this would happen." Jennifer is hitting popularity again, she's no longer pregnant and the twins are getting older and this means...slacker husband to the curb. If I were her, I'd never get married again. What's the purpose in Hollywood? As another trophy? Although, I don't think Marc Anthony was every trophy quality.

  39. I love hot showers, too. Dries out the skin, though. Can't wait to see the house pics!! I don't mind dirty playplaces, either. Wash the hands, and you're good to go, right? :)

    ReplyDelete
  40. This isn't really a permanent solution to the "not being able to see followers" problem, but have you tried logging out and coming to your blog while not logged in? Since everyone else can see them, you should be able to, too. Unfortunately, that won't help when you're logged in, but it's a step. :)

    And I loved playing in play places at McDonalds and the like when I was little. I'm excited for my kiddos to be big enough to do the same.

  41. You have 1,624 followers.

    I'm beyond jealous!

    ReplyDelete
  42. yeah their divorce is no shocker at all! i'm surprised it lasted as long as it did...ahh the joys of hollywood!

    ReplyDelete
  43. I'm with you on the JLo thing. Everyone's all "OMG!" and I'm thinking, "I didn't realize they were still married!"

    I can't wait to read the new JW... hoping my sister will get it and lend it to me!

    ReplyDelete
  44. I love this "it's ok" theme. And about GFC - it is hit or miss everyday for me. Very frustrating when I'm trying to support a blog and follow it and can't.

    ReplyDelete
  45. The follower thing happens to me too! I think it has something to do with your browser. At work, I use Internet Explorer and can't see any followers. At home, I use Google Chrome and I can see them just fine.

    It's weird...

  47. Had that same problem for several days where I couldn't see my followers -- I tried going on the blogger forum, only to find out that i wasn't alone, and that it seems impossible to actually contact anyone directly at blogger. Anyway, my followers came back! But now another gadget is blank...

    ReplyDelete
  48. Oh what a great idea for a list! I'm finding myself being ok with a lot of things lately. I have to for my sanity!

    ReplyDelete
  49. Hey now...I like my big handbags! Oh, and the J.Lo thing? I was pretty shocked it had lasted that long too!

    ReplyDelete
  50. I can see your follower box. Sometimes they seem to disappear. For no reason. Drives me crazy.
