Bedside Business

Sweet Hilary over at A Look Into Our Lives posted an awesome idea...and something else to waste my new found time on! Go check her blog out...and her adorable baby bump...and her Mary Kay blog...and her dinosaur loving little guy!

So on with my bedside business...don't be alarmed at the amount of junk I have on my side...I will post my husband's nightstand too...just so you guys can see the difference between us. ;)



1. My awesome lamp Erin and her mama bought for my bridal shower.

2. Pineapple thingy candle decoration.

3. Clock that has never had batteries in it...decoration that came with pineapple thingy candle decoration.

4. My stack of books I'm working on...First up, Paula Deen - It Ain't All About Cookin'

5. Along Came A Spider - James Patterson

6. A Fireman's Wife - A Memoir

7. Most imporant...my Bible

8. Nintendo DS charger (yes, I'm guilty, I have one)

9. My pink DS that hubs got me for Valentine's Day several years ago. I mostly play at night when he's at work and I can't sleep...I only play one game.

10. Pink candle that Marissa gave me in a gift basket.

11. A pencil...no idea why...maybe when I was studying for my Math final.

12. Vick's Vapor rub from when I was sick. I instantly become addicted to this stuff when I get sick. Thanks Mom! ;)

13. I won't lie...I don't know how old that water bottle is.

14. Cell phone charger.

15. That's my shadow on the wall. ;)




Now look at the difference...Husband's side.

1. Picture of me from my prebridal shoot. Hey...this reminds me...there used to be a small picture of hubs and me on my nightstand. Hmm, wonder what happened to it! Weird...

2. Pineapple thingy candle decoration.

3. Lamp from Erin and her mama.

4. Alarm clock - yes, it's on his side for a reason. =)

5. A coffee mug we bought the day after our wedding that says "Husband and Wife" or something like that...and he put it on his nightstand and never took it off. I thought it was so sweet and don't have the heart to tell him that coffee mugs aren't decorations!

6. The Bible that the minister who married us gave us as a gift.

7. Lucee's (our dog) rabies tag from the vet...pretty sure I was supposed to put it away.

8. His chapstick - this man doesn't go anywhere without his chapstick.

9. My shadow once again!

Now, I'm off to clean off my side...thanks for making realize how much junk I have collected Hilary. ;)

Fun! Thanks for doing this, too! I love that you posted your hubby's bedside table as well. Hmmmm.....I'm not sure if Rich would grant me permission. His side is messy!! Your hubby's is quite neat and tidy I must say!
As far as yours, I say...the more stuff the more interesting! Yes, that's easy for us on-lookers to say.... :)
Now I know what you look at everynight before you close your eyes...I feel so close to you...
hha

I technically don't have a bedside table. However, I do use the windowsill next to the bed. The good news is the curtains cover my mess which includes FOUR glasses of water from who knows when, my alarm clock, numerous hair bands, a boring clinical guide book outlining the medications my kid is on (cause that makes good bed time reading? I was actually looking for that.), and a cough drop wrapper (which sounds normal, except I am pretty sure I have not had a cough drop since we moved into this house???). I would take pictures and post this on my blog, but I am lazy lately...and that would require making my bed and uploading photos and such.
