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. I think I’m going to do this every Tuesday now. You're welcome to join in and do something like this on your diary. Doesn't have to be on a Tuesday either.
Hey, It's Okay....
To not have cared where Lebron James was going to next.
To wonder how the girls who stand in the front row at Zumba class do not look winded by the end of the hour. Aren’t they tired? Are they human?
To watch Big Brother and root for the under dog. IE not the girl who looks like Barbie or the guy who looks like Ken.
To wish I knew a psychic octopus. I’d ask it things like, “Will I ever get a book published, will Natalie ever use the potty, and will Kate Gosselin ever go away?”
To order the waffle bowl with sprinkles at Coldstone—for yourself.
To wonder what in the hell happened to Mel Gibson. He voiced a Disney character for craps sake! He was William Wallace! I used to love him. And now? Not so much.
To wish I could just stretch out on the sand and read when I go to the beach. But with young kids, it’s out of the question. Oh well. Maybe ten years from now…
To think that the Target 75% off toy sale will occur while I’m visiting my family—will they think I’m nuts if I ask for a detour to Target?
To have loved the new Campfire Blast from Sonic—it’s like a s’more in a cup.
To love when your husband surprises you with a sweet card. He’s been...more romantic lately and I think it’s because his departure to Korea is drawing closer and closer...I’ll take it though.

I think he's going to miss you.
ReplyDeleteThe card is sweet.
ReplyDeleteAs for Ken and Barbie...I was at a Drum and Bugle Corp show and two of the field commanders on one team had the names of...yep, Ken and Barbie. Very strange.
What a great idea! I had to laugh at the Lebron James one!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for commenting on my BFF post over at Shell's blog last week!
I never cheer for the Ken and Barbie Look-a-likes... never. They have enough going for them.
ReplyDeleteM
ps - who is Lebron James?
i'm so in love with the campfire blast. I want one now actually. did you know there are actually states that do not have sonic? ridiculous. sweet card
ReplyDeleteThat Campfire Blast sounds amazing.
ReplyDeleteDo me a favor and NEVER look up the nutritional info. You don't wanna know.
Awww re: the card. And we're Sonic-free, but the rest of 'em are all "check"s for me. Yup down the line.
ReplyDeleteMel Gibson....I know. How sad. He is OVER.
ReplyDeleteTom is so cute. He is going to miss you. :)
Is it also ok not to even know who Lebron James is? 'cause I dont.
ReplyDeleteawwwwwwwwwwwwwww I would so love to get a card like that!!!
ReplyDeleteI wonder the same about Mel. So sad because once upon a time I actually liked watching his movies.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card!
yes, yes, and again... YES!
ReplyDeleteagree with you on all of the above!
and the card is adorable! Lucky you!

ReplyDeleteagree with you on all of the above!

That was so nice of your husband.
ReplyDeleteI wish Kate would go away too.
Totally with you on Lebron and Mel. I couldn't care less about professional sports, and Mel's become a crazy man!
ReplyDeleteLove the card. :)
So when IS the Target 75% off toy sale? Share please ;)
ReplyDeleteLove the card <3
I so don't care where Lebron is going either. I so want to try the Campfire Blast from Sonic. They are opening one near us soon.
ReplyDeleteI remember when I was younger my mom really liked Mel Gibson. "He's so handsome", I remember her saying. I wonder what she thinks now.
ReplyDeleteThat card is so sweet.
I'm a closet Big Brother fan too. Although probably not so "closet" now that I've blasted it on the internet!
ReplyDeleteMmmm! Sonic sounds good. darn it! You and food. Always making me hungry!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card! Good job, Tom.
ReplyDeleteI went to Target today. No 75% off sales, but plenty of other things for me to drop money on! Oy.
what a sweetie! I bet he will miss you SO much, even though he is probably acting all macho "hey babe, don't crowd me with your FEELINGS" ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd WTF is Mel Gibson smokin???

Love me some Coldstone! Yum.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card. Yay, Tom.
Hi. It's me again - Team Mel? I, um, just read quotes from the third tape released and, um, my earlier statement of support? Yeah, I think I'm going to have to, um, retract that. Yeah.
ReplyDeletewhattheHELL, Mel?!?!!?! You used to be Da Man! Now you're Da A**hole!
yes on the lebron, yes on the mel, yes on the colstone...yummy! and Tom is definately feeling time closing in.
ReplyDeleteI feel so bad for those who don't have Sonic. It's really a tragedy and a national crisis.
ReplyDeleteRomance from the hubby is great, no matter the reason! That is a sweet card!
Mel Gibson has disolved into a sad little man.
I had to have a larger conversation with my coworker about LeBron, because I had literally no idea what all the hoopla was about.
ReplyDeleteHAHA...great post!
ReplyDeleteI'm curious to see how Big Brother is this year! Ohhhh, a psychic octopus! what the?
I tried to watch teh new Kate Plus 8 the other night and I have to say that I know understand why Jon left her.......she is a MAJOR control freak and it has to be her way or the highway.
ReplyDeleteThese are funny as always! Target always has its 75 percent off sale right before my daughter's birthday. SWEET!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your husband is being more romantic! Way cool!
Well, is it okay not to know who Lebron James is?
ReplyDeleteThat card is so very romantic. Made my toes curl.=) And what the hell did happen to Mel Gibson? Just watched him in Ransom a few days ago and it's so sad that he's publicly lost his mind.
ReplyDeleteAw, what a sweet hubby you have. :)
ReplyDeleteI hate zumba and people who do it. Just because they always tell me how AWESOME it is. blech
ReplyDeleteMel Gibson is DONE. I don't care about Lebron either!
ReplyDeleteHahaha for your comment about LeBron James. And the card from Tom is wonderful...he will definitely miss you. And I'm guessing you'll miss him, too.
ReplyDeleteOf course he'll miss you! And I hate old Mel now and I used to love him too.
ReplyDeletei think the target clearance is usually in august, isn't it? someone post when it starts!
ReplyDeleteI still don't really know who Lebron James is.
ReplyDeleteGreat post and great idea!
Following you now!
Michelle
Sweet card...
ReplyDeleteI hated the beach until my youngest kids were maybe 9 or 10. Even now I worry but it's not even almost the same panic.
And Zumba... psst... I don't even go to Zumba and wonder if those ladies are real.
I'm right there with you on all those. And not only do I not care where Lebron James is going - I don't even know who he is - nor do I care to find out.
ReplyDeleteI love your posts! They almost always give me a laugh. I found your blog through a friend of mine, and always look forward to reading what you've written.

ReplyDeleteI heard this Lebron James joke yesterday...
ReplyDelete"LeBron James was in New York this weekend for Carmelo Anthony’s wedding. When they asked him if he wanted chicken or steak, he held an hour-long special to announce his decision."
Ass-hat...
I love big brother!
ReplyDeleteYou had me at s'mores in a cup, really?
ReplyDeleteThat sounds crazy delicious :)
And your husband may be just as sweet!
I SO want a waffle bowl with sprinkles now! lol
ReplyDeleteAnd what did happen to Mel Gibson? He used to be all that and a block of cheese...
And I will try that Campfire Blast if it's the last thing I do!

You should enter the contest to blog for Aafes; maybe it is your step into being published. And if not, you will have still put a smile on a lot of military faces.
ReplyDeleteAhhh...warm sand between my toes with my nose in a book. The ultimate.
ReplyDeleteI am soooo disappointed in Mel Gibson.
Sweet card...bitter sweet.
I always look forward to your "hey it's ok" post....I have been thinking so many of the same things like lebron who? kate needs to move on...Mel Gibson needs to be put in his place. and yes some day i will be on a beach with a book minus the half pint (even though I love him lol)
ReplyDeleteI wish that every single time we go to the beach. The last time we went, dh brought our beach chairs. I just laughed at him.
ReplyDeleteHi

Sweet, sweet card.
ReplyDeleteAnd Mel Gibson just depresses me.
Fabulous idea! I just might take your advice and try to make my own list!
ReplyDeleteughhh i'm so with you on the lebron deal...WHO CARES?!?!? and thats sweet that he's gonna miss you... so cute!
ReplyDeleteLove it and agreed! That Lebron James special was a waste of time! I'm so tired of Kate Gosselin!
ReplyDeleteThat card is the SWEETEST! And yes, Kate needs to go AWAY.
ReplyDeleteAwww, what a sweet hubby! :)
ReplyDeleteGREAT Tuesday idea...as I sit here feeling I need to write but not sure what to get out of my muddled brain.
ReplyDeleteand yes, I also love your list!!
