Wasted Wednesday........

....more like wasted in the sense that I slept through half of it .Whoops! I guess the getting up early for two days combined with the not going to bed 'til late the same two days, and lack of caffeine, made me crash. One minute i was watching Grey's Anatomy (yes, i'm still loyally watching, for those of you who have been reading religiously) the next minute im waking up at 2:55 wondering how my body could sleep so long during the day! I am one of those people who loves the idea of taking an afternoon nap, but who can never do it. I always get distracted by something. So i guess today my body said your done, and I got some extra sleep. Not a bad idea, since I have to work tomorrow, get my hair and nails done Friday along with cleaning the apartment, bathing the kitten again (the flea shampoo works very well, but we had some flees on our furniture, which of course got onto her) flea bomb the apartment so we get rid of the fleas on the furniture, make sure Hub's suit is ready to go for the party the next day, pack for the three day weekend at the beach, and come up with something quick and easy for dinner Friday night since we are going out with the roomies and some friends to a bar at midnight so I can have my first legal drink :-D!! I'm very excited about that last one on Friday!!!
Saturday is going to be just as busy, but in a different way. More like and excited, happy, buzzing around busy. As most of you readers know my 21st Birthday (WOOHOO!!) is on Saturday. What some may know, but some may not, is that my Grandparents have been married for 50 years on Friday (21 years ago I got to be their anniversary gift, the first born grandchild and first female born into the family in 26 years :-D). My Grandparents are headed out for a private dinner arranged by my uncles Friday night, and I'm hoping they will have a good and relaxing time (they DESERVE it), but Saturday, the ENTIRE family (and some very close friends including my grandmothers Maid of Honor) will be coming together for a renewal of their vows and a luncheon Anniversary Party. I was very excited for all of this, and then my Pop-pop called to tell me that they would also be honoring me since it's my 21st birthday as well (yes i teared up). I'm excited to go and see my family and old family friends, but i'm also excited for what comes after. The Hubs and I are joining the family at their beach house for the long weekend!! We are hitting a couple of different bars Saturday night, including one in Wildwood to meet up with his boss to have a drink, and then Sunday, my family is having a little party for me at the beach house (cookout, cake, presents, ect.) and yes, i'll probably hit one more bar that night :-D. All in all i'm going to have  busy next few days, which brings me back to what I was saying when i started writing, maybe it is a good idea my body conked out. I'm actually getting tired just reading over everything i'll be doing!
Well, I'm going to go watch a little more Grey's Anatomy now, and i promise promise PROMISE i will do another update tonight!
I'll keep writing - YOU keep reading!!

Gunpowder and Lead...

....I love that song. It shows that girls can be just as bad as the boys. The song says it all - mess with me and I'll kick your ass :-D!!
Hubby Is not feeling so well tonight, he actually just went to lay down. His tummy is giving him problems :(. I can't really do anything to help him but I wish I could. I gave him ginger ale and gas ex, and i think i'm gunna give him some pepto next.
So tonight i dyed Toni's hair. Benji and I like it but Mike (hubby for those of you who haven't heard his name yet) didn't like it as much. I think it looks good, and she has joined team Brunette!! YAY!!
So, i'm talking to my Big Brother on facebook. He has a very, very special place in my heart. He's the ONLY person in the world I allow to call me munchkin. I actually tell people who call me munchkin not too, cause it's big bro's nick name for me. I haven't seen my brudder in a few years now due to him being in the Navy. While I love the fact that he serves our country, i get depressed from time to time because he sometimes misses the big things, like the fact that i'm turning 21 in 6 days (bro, that means get your ass here and have a drink with me cause i know your reading this!!!!). Anyway, i love him dearly - even though he picks on me!! :-P
Not too much else going on around here. Toni and I are having lunch with the grandparents tomorrow. It'll be a nice treat for all of us and i'm excited :)! Were also waiting to see how bad this Hurricane/Tropical storm hits us. I've heard everything from evacuation to a slight drizzle, so I guess I will see what tomorrow brings.
Well, I think it's time for me to hit the sack. Hub's is already in our room and my computer is about to die and i need to bring it in there to be charged (it's got a VERY low battery).
I will keep everyone updated on the Hurricane/Tropical storm situation here. Everyone pray for that we are safe and that it doesn't cause too much damage to anyone or anything!!
As always, I'll keep writing, YOU keep reading!!
P.S. -  I'm saying a very special goodnight to a special someone who wishes to remain nameless. Sleep well and we will talk tomorrow :)

The Countdown Begins

SO, today my countdown to my 21st Birthday has begun. It's wierd to think that in 8 days I will be able to walk into a bar, a liquor store, a beer distributor, and a club and be able to drink. As anyone would know, these last few days seem to crawl by at a snails pace. It's frustrating, but it will be well worth the long wait. I know the hubs has a few things planned to make it an awesome birthday (some that i know, some that i don't) so i am REALLY excited!!
Today I found out that I have some Floridian Fans! I got really excited to here that! So my floridian fans, thank you!! Please keep reading!!
Right now i'm having a slow boring day. I'm off from work 'til Monday, I cleaned my room yesterday, the family room is clean, the kitchen  is clean, although i'm sure i can run the dishwasher once, My clothes are folded, and i actually ave everything in its place. The only thing i need to do is laundry, which i can't because there is no money on the laundry card! Looks like it's a Grey's Anatomy marathon day!!
Anyway, not much going on right now. I'll keep the blog up all day and update as things happen. Were supposed to get parts of the hurricane around here, which means going to the beach this weekend is not optional :(!
Keep Reading - I'll keep writing :)

as i was saying...

Remeber those bad days i mentioned yesterday? The one's that make the good days that much sweeter - yeah, today was a good day, and then hubs came home and just shot that to hell. When we make plans, i expect him to REMEMBER them. If I have to remember everything on his schedule, why can't he remember the one night that is supposed to be date night?
I just don't get it - now i'm miserable - my good day has been shattered because of his lousy attitude and his forgetfullness. Listen up hubby, if you've had a bad day at work, tell me about it. I'm here to listen to you problems and help make you feel better. I DO NO deserve to get an attitude.
SOOOOO FRUSTRATED!!!

Pay Day - the best and worst day

Today is pay day - which is the best and worst day of ever. Obviously it's the best because all the work that has been done for the past teo weeks has paid off and you have money to live on now. I say it's the worst day because, without fail, Hubs and i somehow wind up in an argument on how to pay the bills.
 You see, Hubs and I have an agreement that I pay every bill except his truck and school payments (thank god for joint bank accounts). I am responsibble for electric, cable, phone, and whatever else may pop up along the way. It works for us because I set alarms on my phone calander and when they go off, i pay the bills. I don't forget and they almost always get paid on time (I am only human after all, and sometimes they are paid a little late). So today, the bills got paid, the kitchen got clean (with the bestie/roomie's help), we cleaned out the fridge, and are about to tidy up our bathroom and respective bedrooms. We also were able to get out of the house today and go on a little girls day out trip. It was fun (it always is with us!!) and relaxing. Were thinking about taking a dip in the pool when the men get home.
Oh yeah, another positive thing about pay day is that no one cooks dinner to night! We either do take out or go out to eat, which is a nice change from cooking all week!
Not too much else going on in here today, Fridays tend to be slow, but it's relaxing for the most part. We will all probably wind up in roomie's room watching Grey's or a movie. It's probably one of my favorite times that we have. We all watch the movie and talk and laugh and just chill out and relax after a long week!
Now, I'm off to clean up the bathroom and then off to our local redbox to see if we can find the Friday night movie!!
I'll write more later (sorry if this one was a little boring, i promise the next one will be more interesting!!)
:)

End of Day 1

So, the Hubby came home early and we had a great afternoon and evening together. He had put dinner in the crock pot before he went to work today (it's rare, but sometimes he does do it), so it left us some free time to do what we wanted. We gt to talk and laugh with our friends, have a drink, and have some alone time together as well. I guess days like these make the not so great days worth it!
Anyway, not too much to say tonight - I'm hoping the Hubs doesn't talk or snore in his sleep tonight. that reminds me ladies, if you have a talker or snorer and you have access to a lap top, grab some headphones and listen to music or watch tv or movies (my netflix account is awesome!) - it is the ONLY thing that seems to work. I know for a fact (thanks to my roomie/ best friend i mentioned earlier) that breathe right strips and ear plugs DO NOT WORK!!
I will post more tomorrow :) - Keep Reading!!

Day 1

Today I walked into my roomates (and also best friends) room and anounced that I was starting a blog about being a mechanics wife. She laughed (or if you know her it's more of a giggle) like i knew she would and that's how i knew it would be a good idea!
This whole idea popped into my head about ten minutes before i made my announcement. I was in my room looking (for what felt like the millionth time) for a pillow case to cover the new pillow i just bought. I was sitting there, getting more and more frustrated, thinking that NO ONE told me about all of this shit. No one told me how men do't do their laundry, they dont clean up after themselves when they shower (that is when they shower, since apperantly my husband and his friends think daily showers are an option not a nessecity), how they dont tell you what they want for dinner, then whine when you dont have something ready, how they think they ARE always right and only are half of the time, how they 'forget' to flush when they pee, or stink up the bathroom, don't spray the bathroom spary, and laugh when you walk in and then walk out dying from the smell. I could go on and on, but i'm sure I will over the next couple days/weeks/years.
I'm hoping that this blog gets read, but I will warn you - I'm not going to sugar coat anything. This is going to be the blog about everything that people have never said about marriage. At times it will be funny, crude, nasty, mean, sad and anything else you can think of. If you don't want to hear it, don't read it. Sipmle. I've been told I talk alot, but i think that's a good thing, because if i dont't talk I won't be heard, and I want to be heard about all of this! Welcome to my world......the world of being a mecahincs wife! Enjoy the ride :-) !
