Confessing...

I've been tagged by Kyllie! In this tag, I am to list 5 of my addictions.

Here you go...

1. Saving money (and documenting it) - I've made several posts regarding my need to save. I feel like I have come a long way in my views of spending and saving money. A little bit saved here and there really adds up to equal a lot of savings. I get so giddy with excitement when I save big. I am very addicted to a good sale and an even better deal.

2. Deleting shows from our DVR - I don't know why I am obsessed with deleting shows off the DVR. There is nothing that is more addicting than sitting down and deleting a lot of shows (after I skim through them rather quickly). I really have this obsession with finishing and clearing up things. This really drives Jason crazy, but I am trying to see how many hours I can create on our DVR.

3. Pictures - I am totally addicted to pictures and photography! If you've ever visited our house, you can immediately see that I am addicted to pictures. I have lots and lots of photos hanging throughout our house. I have 7 photo albums for the kids (with the intentions of buying 2 more) for them to take when they leave home. In the past 9 years of marriage, Jason and I have accumulated 15 photo albums. We also have our wedding photo album, Jackson's photo album from his first year photography sessions, and a few scrapbooks. I am seriously contemplating getting some kind of a photobook for each of the kids that highlights some of our special memories. I am really addicted to the pictures, and I don't think that is something that I will ever be able to get over.

4. Chapstick - I think that I started putting on Chapstick when I was in high school. I can't go to bed without putting it on. I think that I apply chapstick (at least) five times a day.

5. Traveling - I am always looking for a way to travel and get out of town. I crave time spent away with my family. Sure, there are times where I just want to slow down and stay home, but for the majority of my time, I would rather be going somewhere. I have lots of places that I want to visit in my lifetime. I get so excited thinking about all of the wonderful places that I want to take the kids to visit and places that I want to go to with just Jason. If I could, I would be out of town a couple of times a month. Crazy, isn't it?

There, I confessed! Now, you've got to tell me what your addictions are?

Oh my gosh, I am the same way with the DVR! I am always deleting things and trying to keep it cleaned up. I get nervous that it's going to get too full and not record one of my shows!

I have to agree with the two of you. There is nothing like cleaning off a cluttered DVR!

I think you're more addicted to pictures than anything else.
