High Expectations

Filed under: Blogging, Housework, TV Talk — holly.schwendiman @ 12:50 pm

Well it’s Monday…again and I’m suffering from high expectation syndrome. It’s the start of the week so I’m always thinking/hoping I’ll get a serious leg up on all the tasks needing attention. Thankfully, the big jobs got done last week. But now it’s after noon and I don’t feel like I’ve gotten much of anything done - partially because there’s not as much looming in front of me. *sigh*

Tonight we’re having a little party at our house with some neighbors for the season finale of 24. I hope it doesn’t disappoint. So far this season hasn’t been as enticing for me. It started with a big bang (literally) but they took out the main terrorist just past mid season and the last several weeks have been drawn out story lines that don’t seem to be connecting. I’m really hoping they can tie it all in for me tonight in a way that doesn’t leave me going “eh” and if they kill off Chloe I’m done. She’s one of only two main players left for me. It is this viewer’s humble opinion that you can’t mess too much with an original cast or you lose the emotional investment of the audience. Worse case scenario is still good though because I know the Heroes finale won’t disappoint and we’ll be able to watch it later thanks to the technology of the DVR.

I had high expectations for our Phoenix Suns too and so the last game with the Spurs was a big disappointment. They really are an amazing team and poured their hearts into it. Oh well, one less thing to plan time for. Besides, I have family coming to town this weekend and the kids can’t wait to see their cousins and have them at their house. So I suppose I should find some form of motivation to keep moving today. Too bad I gave up my Mountain Dew, that might just have done the trick….LOL.

  1. Hi Holly. :) Wendy from eMomsAtHome shared your link with me because we have an
    adoption connection. :) I spent a bit of time reading your blog and loved reading
    about your kids. I adopted three children, actually they’re siblings so we went from
    zero to three in 4.5 seconds. lol

    I’m going to add the link to your adoption networking site on my message
    board - we have quite a few members who are waiting.

    I’ll be back to poke around some more.
    Take care, Joanne

    Hi Joanne,

    So nice to *meet* you. I’m glad you came by. Please send Wendy my thanks. ;) Isn’t adoption amazing?!
