What are your current obsessions?

I loved this thread from a few months ago.

So what are your current obsessions?

Fun!!

Here are mine:

Finding the right plants for my front garden (I have this problem with feeling like these things are permanent, and thus making the right choices is imperative, lmao)

Getting my current health situation under control-it has been months, and I am frustrated and worried that if I can't get things back to completely normal before the stress of the holidays, I will spiral out of control during that time.

Getting rid of things/clutter in my house

NOT shopping for stupid crap I don't need and watching my bank account balance go up as a result

Wishing God would give us a "surprise" even though I know it isn't the right time for that

Start up of fall shows!!!

Iced tea-but not bought tea because it is too sweet. But homebrewed rocks-I can't stop drinking it.

Big Brother for sure. I am pretty sure I am obsessed with Jeff.

Shopping for fall clothes for the girls. I cannot stop buying stuff.

Robeez - I feel like I need to collect them or something.

Ideas to redo my kitchen - paint, new hardware, etc.

Fall activities - planning when to go to the cider mill and other events around here.

Bejewled - I will keep trying till I can beat Michele :)~

Monkey stuff - Mia is my monkey and I am on the hunt for a cute monkey halloween costume for her.

Hmm... fun thread.

Menu planning -- I've started doing weekly menus, and am developing a template for them

Bento boxes -- A large part of the above. I bought Alexandra the Laptop Lunchbox, and am starting to become obsessed with the creative aspects of it

Home storage -- We have plenty of space, it's just not defined

Biomechanics -- this has been a long standing obsession at this point. I've actually become fairly proficient in Pilates, so the obsession is heightened by the things that *still* aren't working right

Running -- I've officially switched running groups, and am planning on training for the full Austin marathon in February

Working -- trying to get back into the swing of things. We'll see what becomes of it!

College football -- yessssssssssssssssss

t/j - I wanted to get a bento box. Do you like?

I would love to know how you are doing your weekly menu and if you want to share. This was one of my goals for this fall to get my dinner menu and shopping lists in place. It is so hard with working and coming home to figure out dinner.

Dude, I love you.

I ran across some blog a few weeks ago that was talking about Bento boxes, and I've been thinking about getting one just because the blog made it sound so cool, lmao.

I'm with Melissa with wanting to see your template and recipes once you get everything together!

Wrinkle reversal! (Hence the cut back on carbs, at least for me...refined carbs = aging skin...gah, I only find out now...)
Getting hubby to get the hell off cholesterol lowering drugs, which I'm convinced are a huge scam.
Trying to figure out how much to worry about swine flu.
Finally extricating myself from my parish...must...go...Quaker...but the Papists have got me......................................................................
