Count along with me

At our school, each department gets to highlight their curriculum sometime during the school year. This week is Math Week. We've been doing all sorts of guess the candy in the jar contests (which I won on Monday) and all sorts of Sudoku's and Kakuro's (which I am addicted to both). As a result, I have numbers running through my head. So today I invite you to count along with me.

1 - The number of poopy diapers changed already this morning - and not by me!
2 - The number of tries it took me to get my new contacts into each eye.
3 - The number of times Camden woke up last night.
4 - The number of almost empty toothpaste tubes currently sitting on my bathroom counter.
5 - The time I got up this morning because I just couldn't sleep anymore.
6 - The number of opened lotion bottles on my HUSBAND's night stand - not mine.
7 - The day and month we got married. It represents completeness, wholeness, and eternity. Seven is also the day in August my stepson passed away almost seven years ago.
8 - The number of throw pillows on our couches - which I hate because there are way too many.
9 - The number of opened cereal boxes in my cupboard and I am the only one who eats cereal.
10 -The number of Girl Scout cookies I have eaten already this morning.
11 -The number of auctions I am currently watching on ebay, hoping to win for Camden.
12 -The number of the Janet Evanovich novel I am waiting anxiously to come out.

65 - The number this post is on this blog.

22,500 - The amount of money I dreamed last night my ward gave me for having a baby. Yeah, one of those bizarre dreams that make no sense, but the money sure would be nice.

Five hundred twenty five thousand, six hundred minutes - The song from "Rent" that is still going through my head. I watched that this weekend after many recommendations and really have to say, in spite of loving musicals, this one is definitely not on my favorites list.

Immeasurable - the stink one of Camden's poopy diapers can produce. Also the amount of love I have for him and my husband.

Join me for math week! Share a number from your life with me today.

Ha! I was lovin' all of it. Smilin' along the way. Tryin' to think of a number to use in my comments. Then you had to do it. Now it won't leave my mind for months. And it just left a few weeks ago!

525,600. The number of times I will sing that song. ;)
