Crazy in love...

My hubby has asked me to refrain from using the word 'Crazy'(loosely) unless I was referring to being Crazy in love....

It all started over ten years ago when the hubster and I started dating. One night, while he was courting me over fabulous dinner and I happen to make a comment about being crazy. He smiled at me and nodded, not really sure what to say.

Ten years later he jokes that after hearing I was crazy, he should have run for the hills. I stand my ground and say, "I warned you pal". From the get go I told you I was crazy and you married me anyways! He stands his ground and says he could not run since he was 'crazy in love' with me and thought it was a figure of speech.

Yesterday, my hubby calls me (like he usually does from work) to check in and and ask, how my day was going? I answered in an extremely annoyed voice that I was going crazy!!! The kids were in full swing, it was hot as hell outside and I still had not posted anything on my blog.

Later that evening, my hubby asked me ever so politely, "Honey can you please refrain from using the word CRAZY...it makes me nervous". I instantly busted out in uncontrollable laughter and thought to myself...are you F'ing kidding me???

After I had my laugh, I agreed not to use the word CRAZY, loosely...(as much).

The funniest part of this story is he asked me not to blog about it....good thing he does not read my blog.

Happy Birthday Mr. President......

and many more!!

Pecker Head Pete

This knuckle head bird is hilarious! Pete, (the name I gave him) is a cute yellow bird with black wings. He has valiantly tried to peck his way into my living room, via three different windows...on multiple occasions. I think he smells my good cooking or is simply just a pecker head!

At first I thought, maybe this bird flew into my window on accident, until he started to visit regularly!! I have taken pictures of this oh so cute little fella to make him famous and post him on my blog (sarcasm of course).

Actually, I took the pictures because other wise I don't think my hubby would have believed me. And I need him to check all the vents on the exterior of our home to make sure Pecker Head Pete has not built a nest.

I went to the best resource I know to find answers (the Internet), to see if I could find out what kind of bird Pecker Head Pete is, but no such luck. Either his beak is the wrong color or he doesn't have the right stripes on his back....what ev, I think my little Renegade friend is Fabulous!!

What's a girl gotta do??

I vowed earlier this year to lose 25 pounds, by the time I turned Cougar age(35). My birthday was two weeks ago and I did not meet my 25pound weight loss goal, total bummer!!. I am still eight pounds shy of my goal, so I pushed the goal date back and vowed to lose the weight by the end of my birthday month...which was Friday and again, it did not happen!

This has got to be the worst plateau, I have ever met. My fellow Chica's say "Maybe your building muscle, which weighs more that fat"...I say "Fat chance". I am eating right, getting enough rest, exercising at least an hour a day, and I even went as far as decreasing my alcohol intake(this is huge), and still nada, nothing, zilch!

Seriously, WHAT'S A GIRL GOTTA DO, to lose some weight???

I am currently reading "Master your Metabolism", by Jillian Michaels (I like it so far) and think I may try to go organic....I will keep you posted and let you know how that goes!
