Good Morning! And, Happy Monday!

This morning it's 10 degrees out. Brrrrrrrrr

It was tough getting up, and getting the day started. The whole family was sleepy thing morning!!!

But, here we are again! Ready to face another week! :)

Happy Monday.

Sunday! Happy Happy Sunday!

Today in Review....

Hubby and I slept in a bit this morning - YES, 8:00 a.m is sleeping in for us! :)

We had coffee in bed, along with our postsecret (our usual Sunday morning fun routine)....

Then, we showered and went out for Breakfast. It was nice. As we were leaving the Diner, Mom and Dad were coming in. It was cute. You'd think I was a celebrity the way Mom got excited when she saw me. It was sweet. She never responds to seeing me like that when I walk into her house, or see her on campus at work. lolol!!! :) It was a nice surprise to see them. :)

After our late Breakfast, we decided to go to the Movies. I pretty much had my heart set on "The Bucket List". Wow. Talk about a SAD movie. I was sobbing! It was ultra sad. I felt exhausted when I left the theater. I was emotionally drained. But, I was glad to have gotten the opportunity to see the movie. It was very touching. I must say. We rarely get to the movies, so this was a HUGE treat for me. I'd be happy if we could go to the movies once a month! He can choose, then I can choose... It would be lots of fun.

Here's a video that I couldn't resist looking for as soon as we got home. Turn it up! Just watch it. Maybe it will spark your interest in seeing the movie too!!!!



After the movie, we went to play some pool. I am terrible at it, but my sweetie loves the game, and never really gets to play. I think we played about 3 or 4 games. I lost every single one of them, but I don't care. :) I just like to see him happy, and enjoying himself. Plus, he was awesome about going to see such a sad movie with me. :) I'm sure it wouldn't have been his first choice.

After pool, we went to pick up the kids. And, here we are now.... warm and cozy, at home. It's always wonderful to end the weekend with everyone home, safe and sound. :)

I love my family :)

It was a great weekend. Only problem is.... I'm worn out! :) I need some good sleep tonight..... Well, maybe! ;)

Ahhhhh the Weekend!!!!!

In a nutshell:


Friday night- Hopped in the car after work and headed down to Maryland! What a nice time!!!We went to a party at the Diamond Club. It was a lot of fun. I have NEVER gone to a Mardi Gras party. Nope... Not ever!!! This was a lot of fun! Ok... I'm going to brag for a minute.... I WON! (lol) Seriously. I won first place in the "Beads" contest. I collected the most Beads in the club! Yeah...so you think it's no big deal. Well, I would have never thought I would have been the one. I would have figured that any of the 20 something hotties would have taken 1st place! Nope. I won by a landslide! And, it was a cash prize! woohoo (lol) A hundred bucks!!!I more than doubled the amount of the second place winner! So, yes... I am a proud almost 40 year old hottie. I still got it! (lol) And, it was extra nice seeing some faces we haven't seen in awhile, as well as making some new friends. Just fun fun fun!!!


Saturday - Ok... confession #2. I woke up with a slight hangover. I know. I'm rarely seen with a drink. Hardly ever! But, what can I say. I didn't have to drive, and I really needed to just let go, and enjoy myself. So, I had a headache like crazy! But, after some coffee and a couple of tylenol, I was good to go! :)

Hubby and I spent most of the day in Delaware. Just enjoying ourselves. It was awesome!!!! Got home before 10:00 p.m on Saturday night. But, it was a great day, and evening!!!!

I LOVE IT! PostSecret is Awesome!

A Great Way to Start the Day!!!! Nice Song!!!! Happy Friday!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Absolutely.

Just fun!!! Girls night out!!! Can you match the daughters to their Moms? (lol)
Yeah! Not such a tough one..... :)

Happy Thursday!

Break Out The Beads Guys!!!! Looks Like I'm Headed For A Mardi Gras Party Tomorrow Night!!!!!

Well, It's on To Maryland tomorrow night!!!! I better get a good nights sleep tonight!!! ;)

Happy Thursday!!!! It's almost that magical day! I certainly don't like to wish any of my time away. And, I say that all the time. But, ever since I started working here at Rider, I DO appreciate my weekends!!! When I was self employeed - it felt like every day was Friday!! Not so much now! lol :) I really do cherish my weekends now!!!! :) :) :) :)

So, looks like I'm working on getting back in the groove here. Getting in touch with old friends. Traveling lots to see them! Keeping my weekend bags packed. Hey, we're not getting any younger!!!! I'm looking forward to our new adventures!!! Plus, Hubby loves my wild side. *Big smile! I'm a pussy cat... but I do have a side that he just cannot tame. It's been hidden away for a while... purrrrrrrrr..... But, look out!!! :) I'm a VERY attentive partner... I have just been slacking in the "Social" department. That hurts, for me. I LOVE socializing!!!! So, I'm climbing out of my shell. :) AGAIN!!!!!! I look forward to posting about my/our adventures. And, I will keep my camera close at hand!!! :)

So, other than that...
We had company last night. Our old Pal Zoran. Poor guy is struggling. Fred cut ties with him for a few months, but then contacted him. We're funny.... It's hard for either one of us to turn our backs on friends in need. Even when and if they Screw us over. Seriously. He and I are both that way. Some people might call us "suckers". I think it's a nice quality we both have. In a sense. We are caring people. We've both been in bad spots, and had no hand to grab - to help pull us out. So, yeah.... we've been there. In many ways. And got through so much, on our own. Wow... I'm rambling again!! wooooohoo!!!!

It's a beautiful, cloudy day! I have open toe shoes on! It's incredible! VERY warm for Februaury!!!! I'm loving it!!!!

Good Morning!!!!
Happy Day!

You are Special !!!

Don't forget!!! This is the month to celebrate Love and friendship!!! Be sure to take that extra moment to let your friends and loved ones know how special they are to you!

Last Night <3

What can I say? I am married to the most spectacular man on earth!!! I just know it!
What a dream!!! My Dream, come true :)

So, I get home. He's outside cooking on the grill. He's so sweet. He made this delicious grilled Chicken dinner for us. It was yummy!

Then... He gave me a foot massage with all the fixin's! Lotion, green alcohol... squeezing, massaging.. the works!!! I loved it!!!!

THEN.. if that wasn't sweet enough - I went to get into my comfy's, and when I came out of the bedroom, there was a pretty Martini that he put together with shaved fruits and stuff.. waiting for me by the couch. Not only did it look good, it tasted delicious. It was perfect!!!! And.. (lol) not kidding... while I sat and sipped on my drink, he was in the kitchen preparing my favorite sugar free cheesecake!!! :) :) :) :) What a love!!!!!!!!!! And, since I know he's a frequent visitor to my blog.. THANK YOU BABY!!!!

What he did after that... we'll just call it "cuddling" *Big smile... Lot's of "cuddling" :) :) Tasty, delicious CUDDLING!!!!

It's so nice. He takes care of me... I take care of him. I can't imagine my life with out him. And, so... here we are - the month of LOVE... I'd like to take a minute to tell you, Frederick Montgomery.. I LOVE YOU WITH ALL OF MY HEART <3

:) :) :) :) :) :)

Happy Hump Day

I've had this wicked sweet tooth lately.....
Giving up sugar has really left me with some major cravings....

Oh..! By the way... Happy Hump Day!

The body is such a beautiful thing.
A true work of art........

:)

Innamorato, li ho mancati oggi. Già sto contando i minuti per la fine settimana. Non posso attendere per avervi certo tempo solo con. Osservo in avanti alla nostra nuova avventura questa fine settimana. Spero che ci divertiamo. Siete l'amore della mia vita. Non posso attendere!!! Amili!!!

YES!!!!! It's Super Tuesday! You think soon we can put an end to all the madness??? Nah!! I doubt it. :P

So, here we are again!!! Tuesday is here, and I'm ready for the weekend already!!! lol

I'm full of energy this morning. I was dancing all over the car on my way in. It feels good to feel good. I hope it lasts. :) I think we'd all prefer to good, over bad!

I haven't been blogging much lately. I know. And, that is going to change.

I never reported my fun weekend at the beach almost 2 weeks ago! I went to the Casino with my Lovie, and I won $1100.00 -
I never win anything. So, to say the very least... I was thrilled. Silently thrilled. I was surprised at my response. I always thought that if I won anything, I'd be jumping up and down, screaming. Nope. I stood there looking at the machine... thinking to myself... is that what I think it is? lol... And, it happened twice! I won big, two times!!! It was my lucky night, for sure!!!!

I also never posted about lot's of little things along the way. I don't want to lose track.....

I'm feeling really bad about turning 40. I thought it would be no big deal. It's a lot worse in my head than I imagined. I can't believe I'm going to be 40. Where did the time go???
Hubby and I had a conversation about life (as we often do). He made me laugh so hard at something he said. As a matter a fact, it was something that stayed with me. And I've smiled a lot over the past week or so, just thinking about it. He said that I'm the type of person who loves to stop and smell the roses. He's the type who's full throttle - Balls to the walls. He suggested that we compromise. (lol)..... I should stop, and smell the balls. LOL! Yeah.... sounds strange.. especially when you're reading it, and you weren't part of the conversation. BUT, it was very funny at the time!!! Still makes me smile. Because, it's true. He loves to run run run run run.... and run some more. From the moment he wakes up in the morning, until he can no longer keep his eyes open, at night. Me? Oh.... well, a bit of a different story. I love to take my time. I like to sleep in on weekends, when possible... and I love to stop along the way. If I could, I'd be stopping here, stopping there.. taking pictures, pointing things out... yeah.. smelling the roses, the wildflowers.... anything & everything along the way. So, we compromise. We run run run run run... and when we stop for a breath, I look around, and notice the beauty. It's everywhere. And, sometimes I even snap a picture, or two..... :) SOOOO... We don't get any younger. It's important to get out there and enjoy everything we can. Yesterday is gone... and we can't predict the future.......



Oh! Yeah... Soon we'll be headed to Baltimore. I can't wait!!! Our dear friend Paul has invited us to his house for the night, along with some other long lost friends. We're going there to celebrate his Birthday, and his recent engagement! He's such a love. He went through such a terrible divorce. He sure does deserve this happiness with Lori. I am so excited for him. He's so in love. It's so sweet! Anyway, we'll be going out on the town, in Baltimore. A comedy Club, and maybe out dancing. I can't wait. We haven't seen any of these friends in about a year and a half. I really do look forward to it.... We're going in a couple of weeks!!!!!

Friends. I have a couple of friends that are going through some major things in life. I hate it for them. I'm there if they need me.......

What else? Well, we can always talk about the weather. :) It's mild! AND, it's expected to reach 70 tomorrow. Can that be so? Are we almost out of the frigid winter months???? I hope so! Fingers crossed!!!!!

That's about it, for now... I do have so much to blog about. I think I'd even be blogging more if I didn't have that nasty stalker on me! Yeah, you! I'm not going to let you intimidate me. :P This is my blog..... YOU can go away!

:)

Happy Tuesday!!!!!!!!!

Is it Friday Yet?????

I Was So Happy and Excited I Couldn't Sit Still !

Ok.. So, I thought it was Vegas for My Birthday. As a matter a fact, I was sure it was going to be Vegas! I was working on ways to not be so scared of flying. I was trying so hard to imagine a flight with no fear. I want to get over the whole fear. I will... BUT, there's no hurry. It's not Vegas for my Birthday. It's something else. *Big happy sigh.....

A CRUISE!!!!!!!!! MY FAVORITE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wooohoooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hubby and I are going on a Cruise to Nowhere! On our favorite Ship ever! The NCL is having a weekend Cruise on the "Dawn". She is the most beautiful ship! We're sailing out on April 18th. Ok, so it's not during the weekend of my Birthday. BUT I DON'T CARE!!! I am beside myself with excitement!!!! And, because it falls right between my Birthday and his..it will be a double Birthday celebration!! :) A grown up's ONLY cruise. Nothing but fun! Dinner, Dancing, partying, and celebrating! :)

Can't wait. This is the best Birthday present ever!!!!!!

And then, in August - we will go on the same ship, same suite, and head to Bermuda for a week!!!! As a family. :) :) :) Can't wait!!!!!!!!

Monday!!! Good Morning! Happy Day!

And - this is the month of sweetness!!!
I did capture a few pictures of some of my sweet friends and family this weekend....
But the photo's are home! So, will post them soon!

Anyway, Happy Monday!!!!!

It was a nice weekend. And, yesterday was a beautiful day!!! Just gorgeous! It really felt like Spring! :) I can feel it in the air.....

The kids had a fun filled weekend. They are a handful! We had sleep overs here.. sleepovers there. Movies, Mall, different movies.. cheerleading...... and all sorts of fun. :) I love to see them having a great time. I love those kiddies!!!!

And, in between the taxiing around, hubby and I would steal a moment, here and there. We always find time to bond :). It's nice. I feel really really close to him. After 9 years together, we still have that magic. It's so nice. I love love love this man of mine :). And, we enjoyed our weekend together, with the family.

Last night, we had a Superbowl party. :) Well, sort of.... lol
Mom and Dad came over. They love the Superbowl. AND, they love Fred's cooking :) Oh... did I mention that they love our Big screen T.V? I think we were set up (lol). Mom was so cute, though. She kept saying what a great time she was having... And, that was enough for me! :)

So, that was our weekend. Full of LOVE and KISSES and lot's of good, family fun!

Happy Day!

Will post more in a bit.
I have a lot in my head! Needs to get out!
So I'll blog in a bit!

WILL WORK FOR COFFEE!!!



lol @ Myself!

It's just been that kind of a week (so far). :)

But, I'm feeling good this morning - Despite the fact that I was up at 3:00 in the morning, searching the house for a "stalker". My poor daughter had a dream that someone was after her. She came to me crying her eyes out.. Had a bad bad dream. Poor thing. I got her settled back in her bed, but then I was wide awake!!!!!!

So, I doubt I could get enough coffee today!!!!

Other than that - everything is okay. Just another week.

Lot's to do here at work. The students are back, and they're in the office all day long!!! It's nice to have them here. Makes the day more eventful!

What else?? I don't know. I have a lot in my head. I just don't have the time or energy the last few days to jot it down. Maybe later!
