Let the Countdown Begin...

I know I haven't been as good about blogging lately, but it has been insanely busy lately.  I am hoping that in a few weeks things will calm down a little since I will go from teaching two classes a week to only one.  

Now on to my countdowns....

First off, let March Madness begin!!!  So excited that the Ohio State Buckeyes won #1 overall seed and Big Ten Champions.  I am not however happy with the bracket they were placed in.  It will be a tough one with Syracuse and UNC in it.  Here's hoping their depth and talent can persevere!

Second off, four more days until St. Patrick's Day - who doesn't love a holiday that honors the Irish (some of my background) and perpetuates lots of drinking!

Third off, one more week until the official first day of Spring.  Spring is one of my favorite seasons.  It isn't too hot and muggy - which my hair definitely enjoys!  The mosquitoes are not out yet - which is a major plus for me.  Mosquitoes have an uncanny knack of not bothering anyone but me.  The weather is perfect, warm during the days and cool at night.  So what's not to love!

Lastly, 35 more days and I will be here

Currently Craving....

It is a pretty common known fact that I have a love of peacok as seen here and here.  So it shouldn't come as a surprise that I am currently CRAVING this.  I was out on Saturday night and saw a girl wearing the long cardigan version of this Winter Kate cardigan, which only intensified my craving for finding it.  Unfortunately, both the shorter version and longer version are sold out everywhere I can think of looking.  The only thing left in online stores and ebay that I have found is in a size XS.  If any of you out there know of any place that has either version in a size M, PLEASE let me know!
