Muscles…

Man, the past couple weeks I’ve found muscles I didn’t know I had.   I found them by not only going to water aerobics, but adding in things like yoga…pilates…and cardio intervals.   OMG, sore is an understatement…wow!

And I just bought Jillian Michaels 30 day shred…

*sigh*

I’ll check back in soon!

Tagged – Bed Bugs

Ok, so my sweet friend at The Adventures of the Headless Family tagged me today for a 6×6 meme. 

I am supposed to go to the  6th folder of my pictures and pick out the 6th picture…and write about it.   I had to go a tad bit deeper to get a picture, I went to the 6th folder, then the 6th folder again, and finally to the 6th picture.  I figured that was ok.

I was so excited when THIS was the picture! 
These are my BED BUGS!

Cute huh?  Humphrey Bogart on the left, Tommy Lee on the right.  This picture was taken in January 2007, so they were just a couple months old.    They sleep with us every.single.night. and have since the day we brought them home.   Usually they sleep so close to me, I can hardly move, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.  I wish I could have 10 more just like them.  Seriously.   However we already upgraded our bed from a queen to a king.   These two little boys honestly believe they are people.   Sometimes I think they are as well.  

The rules:
1) Go to your photo files
2) Pick the sixth folder (open)
3) Pick the 6th photo
4) Write a story about the photo
5) Tag six people (don’t forget to tell them that they have been tagged!  :)

Right now I can only think of a couple friends that I can tag…who haven’t been yet, and/or who might be able to play!

Leslie @ Got Kids Need Valium
Carol Anne @ Soapboxville

Additionally if you’re still visiting me here and haven’t been tagged, please tag yourself!  Don’t forget to leave me a note so I can come visit!  :)

Very Proud

I’m very proud to say that our baby girl, is finally a High School Graduate.   Friday the 29th will be the commencement ceremony, and then it’ll all be just a memory.

The next day, Saturday, we’ll be having an open house for her, and so we have lots and lots to get done before then.   I just wanted to share with you how proud we are of her, what a wonderful and rewarding accomplishment!

We are so excited for her!  She goes to College Orientation mid June, for a couple days.   During those couple days she’ll be rooming with a stranger in the dorms (though she’ll be staying at home this first year), and then she’ll be registering for her classes.

I’m Famous!

OMG!  I’m famous!  

Well, I’m not famous…
but my arm is!  

Yesterday I was sitting outside on the porch, thumbing through a tattoo magazine (that I had JUST bought), when I looked into the upper left hand corner and saw…MY ARM!

I screamed “OMG!  I’m in this magazine!” at the top of my lungs!   Would you believe, no one came running. 

BabyAm was in the living room, she’s fighting an ear infection/cold…and Hubby was in the garage with his head under the hood of the SUV checking the oil.    So!  I ran around like a chicken with my head cut off to tell them both.

Here it is, the June 2009 Issue of Tattoo Magazine!

I had to go and buy a few more. 
Ok, so I bought 5 more copies!  

LOL – Wouldn’t you?   YES!  You would!   

We also took my copy and had Darcy (our Tattooist) at Chalice Tattoo sign it for me.  She’s the bomb!  Hubby’s Tattoo is featured on her website (top left of this page), she does amazing work (90% of his was HAND DRAWN on his leg)!!

The Sound of Music

For the last 8 out of 10 years (approx) Hubby and I have listened to the police scanner at night.   Well, lately we have changed our pace a bit, we have either chosen silence, or some relaxing music.   I choose the same music all the time, so I have to let him choose once in awhile.  

Last night I made a mistake.   Have any of you ever done that?

Hubby said “what do you wanna listen to”…and my response?  “Anything”.    What was I thinking? 

I know!  Something like Enya, Chris Botti, John Rich…something relaxing. 

This is the song he put on (the video is kinda funny too though)…he was waiting, just waiting…for me to pop a vein.  (which I finally did, after I heard what it was) 

“Um, can we try something else?”  Ok, no veins were popped in the process of going to bed, but can you imagine, that is just what a loving wife wants to hear as she’s closing her eyes for the night…HELLO!  I think NOT! 

someone, please….help me….(lol)

Winner!

We have a winner!

Congrats to CJ (My Mommy)!!!!  Check out her answer in the comments of this post (30 Cents).  She’s funny!  I only wish I some wonderful prize to give her, like millions of dollars!   A wonderful prize…hummm?  Oh ya!  She’s got me!  LOLOLOL

The question:  Two coins equal 30 cents, one of them is not a nickel.  What are the two coins?

The answer:   A quarter and a nickel.

You ask:   Why Steph, when you said that one of them was not a nickel?   How can that be?  

And I say:  Because although one of them wasn’t a nickel (the quarter), the other one was!

…get your kids with this one…LOL
