things

I'm 35 years old, closing in on 36. I married a younger man (I *think* he's 32). My husband and I have been together 8 years but just got married in July 2008. We have two dogs who are probably the loves of my life. I clean a lot, eat a lot, complain a lot and like to take long walks preferably on a beach, except that we live in Arizona and the closest beach is hours away.

free stuff!!!

as per my free sample fetish,  I don’t do much leg work on my own.  I use this site.  I follow her on twitter, she does all the work and then tweets when there’s something new.   I also a couple of times per week Google ‘walmart samples’.  only because I’m too stupid to actually find the walmart free sample page on their website.   They offer a couple of free samples per week. they don’t change often but that’s where I’ve gotten my dogs quite a few treats.     And sometimes when I need or want things I Google them and go to the respective website and sometimes you’re lucky and get free samples and sometimes you just get coupons.  either way a win.   Like how I get $35 off my migraine pills.    I also use this coupon website because it’s the only one that didn’t ask me to download a coupon printer.    I stopped getting the sunday paper because the coupon savings never seemed to outweigh the cost of the paper.    so that’s how all this started.  I have not turned into one of those amazing couponers who always seem to get groceries for free, but I still enjoy saving a buck or two and getting things for free.

yesterday I picked up some Michelob Ultra dragon fruit peach.   I haven’t tasted it yet, but that seemed like a fun summertime beer.   Couple of days ago I made a Poinsettia which is cranberry juice and champagne.  I learned that one in Vegas.   Contrary to how it sounds, I do not drink a lot or often.

I also love pens and I love all things retro.  When I say retro i mean the 50′s or 60′s.   I love my vintage ad calendars.  And as you may have read before I love my retro restaurant menus.  So when I saw these pens last time we had dinner out at our fave cafe, I couldn’t stop thinking about them.  fortunately for me they still had them there yesterday and I picked them up, and not for that price listed.  much cheaper.

Getting to know YOU
The Q’s..

1. Thong or Granny Panties?somewhere in between.   I don’t know how anyone wears thongs.

*
2. If you see a guy with his fly down, do you tell him?depends on who the guy is.

*
3. Spanx or no Spanx?I’ll definitely wear them. I need to go back to my wedding day and put them on.

*
4. Do you sleep in your sheets?I don’t even know what this means, doesn’t everyone sleep in their sheets?  We don’t use top sheets at my house, I find them useless and stupid and it just makes it harder to make the bed.  Right now I’m wondering if my husband misses top sheets.

5. What is your favorite Disney character?I don’t have one.  I’m not so much a Disney character fan as I am a fan of Disneyland.

*
6. Dream vacation spot?I really think I want to go to Fiji.  I enjoy a nice beach.   We’ve been to St. Lucia and that was the best vacation I have ever taken. We almost went back for our honeymoon but ended up in Hawaii instead.

*

7. What is your dream job?Stay at home mom and wife.  lame right?  i don’t think so.    but other than that, probably leader of the free world.

*
8. Who is your hero and why?It’s going to sound cliche but it’s my mom.  She gets on my nerves sometimes now as an adult but she was a single mom not by choice, and I have zero bad memories of childhood.   I grew up to be basically the complete opposite of her and I’d refuse to believe we were related if we didn’t have the same unusual eye color and hands.   by unusual eye color, i guess it’s hazel.  it’s not green and it’s not brown but it’s a combo of the both and not exactly the typical hazel.   they lean more toward green.  I always wished i had bright green eyes.
