This why we're awesome

I was planning on getting so much accomplished tonight, but I'm flat out exhausted....I didn't want to go to bed without sharing a few things that happened today.

First off I'm a cheapskate, lets just get that out right now and anytime I can find a deal or a freebie I'm there, afterall, I am polish..hehe (no offense to those polish followers:) ) so a few weeks ago I signed up HERE for a free sample of this dogfood for my pup, much to my surprise the guy in the brown suit showed up at my door with a package today..a 23 lb package to be exact...and after wracking my brain for 5 minutes trying to figure out what it could be..I opened it...and what to my wondering eyes should appear, but a 23lb bag of dogfood..now THAT'S a free sample!!!! sheesh..If you have dogs I highly suggest this free sample. It's supposed to be super healthy for the dogs! They don't have it available ALL the time so check back occassionally and see if you can sign up.

Mr. A made some amazing ribs on the grill tonight....yumm-o....I love cooking and baking all that fun stuff but it is nice when he takes it over for a night now and then. We need to get back on a menu schedule like we tried once before..If I can get going soon I will of course share with you all!I like to do alot of Mrs. Awesome's makeshift recipes. Mr. A doesn't mind so I go with it!


I got myself a sweet haircut today...short for the summer.. It's a layered bob and super cute...we'll see if I still think that tomorrow when I wake up and have to style it myself. It always looks great when you're stylist does it, am I right? Do any of you do anything different to your hair when the seasons change?

Not alot for tonight but I'm off now to watch a movie..a chick flick why Mr. A is gone for the night...He's just not that Into you..read the book and loved it, hope I love the movie just as much!

We all wanna be normal..

Last night Mr. Awesome told me he was going to have to start being "normal" so I couldn't blog about him..haha

I don't know why but this made me laugh.

Anyone wanna buy me this:

I need me some bragging rights...

Mr. Awesome and I are constantly going at each other about who is right and who is wrong about things…I think my favorite thing is when we make bets…he says he never makes a bet he won’t win…I beg to differ! :)

Last night we made a bet that will allow me to get my very own (and very first) garden in our backyard..created by Mr. Awesome himself; if I win of course. If I lose I have agreed to wake up with BA1 every day of every weekend until he is one year old so Mr. Awesome can sleep in. Not too big of a deal since BA1 is a champ when it comes to sleeping straight thru the night.

Now, I just need the Milwaukee Brewers to win and the Florida Marlins to lose…

Plus…I need some bragging rights!!!

Natural Family whaaaat??

I am the last to bash anything that makes my life easier, but let me just say that I am not a fan of the BC pill..at all…period (no pun intended). It makes me cranky, makes me hungry 24/7..and makes my body do weird things..and I have a serious grudge since I truly believe it caused a major problem for me back in late 2008 (story to follow).

Let me explain, I am Catholic and I do agree with most everything the church teaches, but birth control is another story. For those of you who don’t know Seasonale is a 3 month birth control pill. I went on it years ago to stop seriously debilitating cramps (sorry TMI). I stayed on it after I got married for a few months for obvious reasons and then went off when I started turning into Mega Bitch experiencing said side effects. I got pregnant(unplanned) what almost seemed like miraculously since dates were far from adding up and 9 weeks later miscarried. I truly believe it had something to do with being off of the 3 month pill for no longer than 2 months before getting knocked up. But, we have no solid evidence so I shouldn’t speculate..I just can’t help it.

This leads me to the predicament I am in currently. Since we just popped out BA1 in December we aren’t ready for another just yet…but rumor has it after a previous pregnancy the body can’t wait to rent out its uterus again…thus making it super easy to get knocked up again. We can’t take any chances just yet. I vowed never to go back on that horrible little pink pill, and Mr. Awesome mentioned back almost ripped his face off for no good reason numerous times that he wouldn’t mind if I never even mentioned the pill again. But, lately it’s been a different story. I worry it will mess up my body and when the time comes again to try for BA2 it won’t happen. I also don’t want Mr. Awesome to divorce me because of a little pill and what it does to me. I know for sure I won’t be going on the 3 month pill, it will strictly be the 1 month.

If anyone has any thoughts or suggestions I am all ears….

For Better or Worse

Let me first start out by saying I love Mr. Awesome more than anything, but geez louise he has a few things that cause me to want to poke my eyeballs out….I’m sure he’s not the only hubby who does these things so I’m sure some can relate…

-he never finishes what he starts…example: tonight he cut the weeds from the side of the house and left them strewn all over the driveway, then went inside on the computer. I mean come on, how hard is it to sweep the weeds out to the street so the street sweeper can clean them up.

-he likes to cook, but not to clean up afterward. I will be the first to say the food he makes is amazing most of the time, but it’s not THAT amazing that I like to clean it up afterward!

-he is obsessed with fantasy sports---refer to worse than crack…

-he leaves dirty clothes everywhere

-he doesn’t ever do anything without me mentioning it then when I mention it..I’m nagging…grrrrr


I wouldn’t trade him for anything, but sheesh. Anyone know of a good husband training class? J hehe
