1. I’m digging American Idol this year. I can’t shake the feeling that J-Lo and I might be good friends some day.
2. I’m equally (and shamefully) enjoying The Bachelor. Although, I truly wish Ben would cut his hair.
3. I have (mostly) given up coffee. Yep. I know, totally crazy.
4. Actually, my super clean diet has me giving up caffeine, artificial sweeteners, high fructose corn syrup, grains (minus Ezekiel bread)…. you get the idea.
5. I’m equally as irritable as I am proud of myself. I know this will get better.
6. CC has officially gone crazy. My workouts literally leave me lying on the gym floor. Everyday.
7. I have yet to take down my Christmas printables & mercury glass collection. There may even be one garland still out.
8. Yes, we do have a trampoline inside. Just for the winter. It’s a 7 foot number and the kids got it from Santa this year. It may have saved my life more than a few days.
9. Someday I’ll get motivated to finish painting my hutch. Someday.
10. I’d love to get a spray tan but I can’t get past the thought of standing in front of another person (probably a tiny teenager) in a bathing suit. No way, man.
11. Do you ever buy the dip chips from Publix? You know, the carrots that are cut like potato chips. Love those little guys.
12. We saw The Grey this weekend. For some reason, I keep fighting the urge to look over my shoulder for a vicious pack of wolves.
13. I am also disappointed we made an hour drive to see that one. A leetle bit sad, if you know what I mean.
14. I could marry a few pages of the new Pottery Barn catalog.
15. There are some exciting things I’m working on these days. Cannot wait to share them with you.
16. I really miss Friday Night Lights.
17. Both our kids have strep throat this week.
18. I’m beyond ready to start some bigger projects around here, but something is stopping me from pulling out the table saw. It may be exhaustion.
19. Do you know how much I want to live on the water someday? I can close my eyes and smell the sea–it’s magical & I think I need that to be part of where I call home. Someday, maybe.
20. I’m trying to pick the gray for Ava’s room–it’s close, so I guess I’ll have to buy samples.
21. I’m PUMPED about the giveaway we have for you guys tomorrow.
22. If you need a basic white duvet, grab the basic from Pottery Barn right now while it’s on white sale–it’s sooo soft and pretty.
23. I’ve got a contributor post coming this week–this is me squealing with excitement!!!!
24. Matt sniffed out some more Biscoff spread at Publix the other night.
25. I’m thinking of having a 25 things link party next week…say, Wednesday, February 8. Join me??

I am totally digging American Idol this year as well! Can’t wait til they get to the top 24!!
AWESOME, Tonya!!!
🙂

….am soooo gonna try #11, and sooooo agree with #16!!! Oh, and #19 too!
Oh, so missing Friday Night Lights…just plain good. Also I am usually a Ben Moore gal but Sherwin Williams won me at Mindful Gray (grey) always spelled different in our son’s last room. No pink, oranges, greens or blues…JUST GRAY. Good luck.
We would LOVE to join your 25 things link party…really, you don’t have to ask us twice to party 🙂
Wahoo! So excited I won ! Thank you 🙂 and #10 makes me laugh!
i think a linky party sounds super fun. i’m so with you on #14 and #16. can’t wait to see what gray you choose. man i love gray.
I miss Friday Night Lights too!!!!
I love this 25 things post!…and your comment about marrying the new Pottery Barn catalog had me laughing. I’ve been studying that thing so closely that it’s already looking tattered…and dog-eared!:)
Yes to the linky!!!
would love to join the 25 link party, would be fun! i loved yours. i got the new PB catty i know what you mean 🙂 and i couldn’t give up my coffee. pushing the button on the coffee pot in the morning makes me happy! susan
I would definitely join the linky party.
Ahhhh just you mentioning Friday Night Lights makes me drool over Tim Riggins, seriously!!! I too want to live on the water one day, my hubby and I talk about it a few times a year. Only thing holding us back is that we have family that live so close to us and we couldn’t pass that up.
scary but I could have been writing those 25 things, BUT can’t give up my hot tea!Good for you!
I like your list Shaunna 🙂 I can resonate with many, living on the water is truly the best! First thing I see in the am and last at night…. and I cant believe I am admitting this, but watched The Bachelor last night and last week….it is good mindless, entertaining tv 😉 See you tomorrow & thank you for all you do! … and no strep throat here, just a double ear infection, runny nose & croup-ey cough! Lovely!
Loved the 25 things. Lets us get to know you a little better.
I would like to do it too. Gotta start thinking about 25 things besides blogging, Carnival and 50 year anniversary party coming up for my parents.
love this and i would so do a 25 things event!
Shaunna, I would love to join on the 25 things day! Sounds fun! Also, I recently re-modeled “my space” in a BM grey called Sterling, very pretty and subtle. We do live on the water on the South Eastern part of Massachusetts, just posted pics a few days ago of our home/view on my blog ~ I’m totally not bragging, or rubbing it in, but I get it. After living on the water, I don’t think I could ever move away from the water as much as I would love a bigger yard, or home, somethings gotta give. And, BTW a trampoline in your house!! Wow!!! We had one in our yard but for insurance reasons had to give it up, one of the saddest days to day around here. Hey, maybe ya’ll { we don’t say ya’ll but I wish we did 🙁 } should come up and visit us sometime and see how you like it ?!? LOL…thanks for making me smile tonight reading your post !
Oh my gosh! (said really quick like ohmagosh) we got a 7 foot trampoline for christmas too. Winter + 2 year old + tramp = mommy’s sanity.
#7 really made feel good! Sorry! But it was nice to see I’m not the only one behind… If I’m not too behind, I’d love to join the 25 things party next week…
I’m digging Teeccino Hazelnut flavor as a substitute for coffee these days. It doesn’t taste all together like coffee, but it’s pretty good. I was just drinking decaf, but decided to cut it all out.
THE GREY-If anyone else goes to see it you must stay through the end of the credits to see
the true end of the movie.
Deb! What?!? We didn’t stay! Tell me! 🙂 Seriously–email me at shaunna@harristire.com.

Just did a 25 things inspired by your post. have a party!
Hi – love your blog; and think the “25 Things” are great :); However, I have to say that ANYTHING that wants you to give up Coffee is crazzzzy!. I’m just sayin’ (I eat “clean” most of the time too haha – love Ezekial bread.
Thanks for sharin!
