'making a list, checking it twice!'

I am so happy to have cable again, and tonight was the season premiere of two shows I love!  One thanks to Jamie, (Grey's Anatomy) and the other a guilty pleasure (Jersey Shore).  I was out tonight and missed them both,  but lucky for me, there is a rerun of tonight's JS at 1am.  Looks like I will be killing time blogging!

Okay, for anyone who knows me, they know I live for my lists.  They provide comfort to me, even though I hardly follow them!  Don't get me wrong, I use it as a base, but not to a tee. With that said, this entry is dedicated to the list I have been provided with by Americorps as well as my list of things I need/need to do before I leave.

Let's start with what I will be provided with by NCCC:

  • pair of black BDU pants
  • 2 pair of tan BDU pants
  • 2 pair of khaki shorts
  • long sleeve polo
  • short sleeve polo
  • black fleece vest
  • 2 short sleeve gray t-shirts with emblem
  • 2 long sleeved gray t-shirts with emblem
  • hoodie
  • winter parka
  • steel toed work boots (sexy, I know)
  • black belt
  • coveralls (oh my...)
  • rain suit
  • black wool scull cap
  • tan fisherman's cap
  • baseball cap
  • cold weather coat
  • green short sleeve performance tee
  • red backpack
These items are what I will be wearing 90% of the time.  Not my first pick, but I will defiantly be channeling my dad and grandpa! Maybe I will borrow one of his flannel shirts and be just like him!
my dad and my grandpa! you can't see the steel toed boots, but believe me they are there!

  • sports bras (would like to purchase 2 more)
  • 3 regular bra's (you have no idea how hard this will be for me to only chose 3!)

Needless to say, once my bills are paid, I will be using any remaining money to finish getting what I need! And hopefully a fantastic Sam's run sponsored by my dad, but he does't know that yet!
