New Moon, No Spoilers.

New Moon.  Ahhhh what a movie.

I just re-read Twilight and New Moon, finishing them about a week ago.  I then watched the first movie before going to see the new movie. 

My verdict??

New Moon was by far the better of the two movies, and we can only hope they will continue to get better.  This movie was more to the book, of course there were some things left out but they got the key points of the story. 

There is a lot of Wolf eye candy in this movie, but remember the most important wolf is only 17 years old...lol.  He is one good looking boy! Jailbait!

Anywho, I am already looking forward to getting it on BluRay I think it might look better than in the movies.

  Since Joe and I aren't really doing much but having a small dinner on Thanksgiving, I am trying to talk him into going to see it again after dinner.  Even though he hasn't seen it yet, when I went to see it I went with a friend from work and her sister. 

Anywho, go see it make your hubby take you, pay a sitter, shoot bring the kids if they can handle it.  I want to see it again!

Until later...

Music

So I have falling into the world of MP3 players, when I remember to charge mine I listen to it while at work.  I have falling back in love with listening to music, I do buy all of the music I listen to no free sites for me.  I also have a lot of CD's and I buy more when I find somthing I like. 

I have such a strange taste in music, right now I am listening to my favorite band right now (don't laugh) Creed.  I have loved Creed since highschool.  They were the band that I would have died to go see, and then I started dating this guy (a total rebound guy) and for Chirstmas he got me tickets to see Creed in concert...their Weathered tour. 

It was amazing, eight rows from the stage...so close.  Then five years ago they broke up, I was sad, I love their music.  Well guess what, they are back together and they have a new album out I bought it today and I am listening to it right now.  It is so nice to hear Scott Stapp's voice again. 

This is him with his long hair he is not sporting it anymore.  So hot. 


Now look at him with all his hair gone, I think he looks better now. 



Mmmm yummy!

Anywho, one of my other favorite artist is Jason Mraz...LOVE ALL OF HIS MUSIC.  When I am listening to my MP3 player I skip over some of the songs that I don't really want to listen to.  Not with Mr. Mraz, my favorite song is Butterfly, I say this is my new favorite seduction song.

I am now digging Kings of Leon, the lead singer's voice is so sexy.  See with me and music I have to fall in love with certain things, voice, beat, words.  With 'Leon I fell in love with the voice first, favorite song of their's would have to be Sex on Fire. 

I also like some country music, Tim McGraw is a fav, I have many favorite songs of his, My Best Friend, Indian Outlaw. I am not thinking of anymore...lol. 

I have the BeeGee's on my MP3 player, yes you heard me right, I think I would have liked the Disco Era and I wouldn't have been ashamed of it...lol. 

Some of the other I have are Journey, 80's realy 90's Madonna, Michael Jackson, Fergie, Lady Gaga, Taylow Swift...just to name a few. 

What is on your playlists, or top bands or artists??  What is your favorite sexual or seduction song??

Living My Dream!

There are two things I wanted to do in my life, two dreams I have always had. 

To go back to school, and to visit Australia.  It would be awesome if it was Australia, but I am going back to school for now, hopefully one day Australia will happen.

I am going to be enrolled in school for the 2010 Spring semester, I am so excited but so nervous too.  I graduated from highschool 10 years ago last June, it has been 10 years since I have taking a test, say in a classroom, did homework. 

So what am I going for?  Nursing, it is always something I have wanted to do it since I graduated from highschool.  I actually was almost enrolled before for nursing but I was young and flighty and never took it to the next level. 

Hopefully in 4 years I will be have my Bachelors in Nursing and will be a Registered Nurse.  I am also going to be working full time, at least during the first year and a half of school for my General Education and Pre-nursing classes. 

What brought this on?  My husband has always said I should go to school and I have always wanted to, but I was always too scared.  So about 2 weeks ago I had a really bad day at work (not so many good days since then) I came home and just started looking at schools.

At first I went on and looked at Technical schools, basically online schools and most of them only offered a 2 year degree I guess for an LPN and that isn't what I wanted.  One of the schools actually called me and told me the course was for LPN and that there was a 2-3 year wait for the nursing program, I don't want to wait that long. 

I decided to check out the local University here where I live, which ended up turning out to be the best option for me.  It is a typical 4 year college, it is a small school but it is growing.  The age group of students is very diverse, hopefully I won't feel extremely old...lol. 

I am worried about going back to school, will I be able to do it??  I wasn't that good in highschool, until my senior year when I got nothing lower than a B.  So I know I can do it, but it is kind of terrifing.  I am going to have to study, do homework, write papers, give presentations, cry in the bathroom (hehehe). 

The hardest part of it will be the time spent away from my husband.  Even when I am home I will probably be doing some type of home work, and Joe said he would help me if he can.  They next 4 years of our life together are going to be hard, but I know that in the end it will be the best decision we have ever made. 

I am going to be a college student, and that makes me so friggen excited!!!!!!!!

Cooking Mama (not that game).

When I was younger I was never really taught how to cook.  I mean I could cook anything out of a box but beyond that and I was hopeless.  Being married has changed that...a lot.

My husband cooks most nights because he isn't working right now, but I am sooooo tired of having the same things.  Baked chicked, backed porkchops, broiled steak, I sometimes think my husband has a 1 dementional brain...lol.  I get tired of basically the same thing over and over. 

So on my days off is when we eat something different, and that is because I cook...lol.  The other day I made stuffed peppers for the first time with no recipe.  I think I did good, and will make it again but there are some things that I will do different. 

Cooking is all about trial and error, I just made a recipe that I found over at Simply Femme while it was good I felt like something was lacking.  So next time I make it I will do some tweeking to it. 

Last winter I tried to make Chicken and Dumplins, yeah that turned out horrible and we ended up ordering out :(  There are a few other dishes that I have failed at. 

Tonight I am making Chicken and Cheese Enchiladas, this is the first time I am making them so wish me luck...lol.

My question for you ladies is how did you learn how to cook?  Did you start from scratch and teach yourself, or did someone start you down the path and you just went from there?  What are some meals you have made that have bombed? 

I love trying new recipes, and I plan on posting some in here.  Ok I think I am done for now. 

Until later!

Quickie.

Ok I am trying to make this as quick as possible.  I just wanted to share a few pictures, of course they are of Dakota my puppy. 

Enjoy!!

Here is Dakota sleeping, actually I was taking a picture of her bandana. 


She looks shocked in this picture, she is starting to get into that awkard puppy stage, sorta like what kids go through.  Gotta love the ear. 
 

I didn't want to get off of the couch to take this picture because they would have moved if I did.  Denver is on the left.  Babygirl who is a friends dog is on the right and Dakota is just wedged inbetween. 


Here is the birthday gift my husband gave me. This isn't a good picture, I can't find my digital camera, I think it is in my closet.  Anywho, I love sunflowers if you look at past post you will see pictures of my wedding, sunflowers was the 'theme'.  I was so shocked when I seen this it is so beautiful, I never knew you could get a whole sunflower charm, I always thought you would only be able to find the head of the flower.  My hubs said they had to order it.  I was kinda of worried that sleeping with it on wouldn't be a good idea thought I would break the stem off, but it is really solid.  What can I say I love it and can't stop gushing over it.  The husband done good!!


Ok that is all for now.  I am going to go get a quick shower get in my pj's and then it is Project Runway time. 

Until later!!!

Pictures and a Post...oh my!

I am going to atempt to add a picture again... Gotta ask a question though.


What is the easiest ways to upload pictures?? Through photobucket and just copy link straight into blog, or by the hyper-link thingie ^ up there??


If you didn't know I am a blonde, lol. I love me some blonde jokes and I always ready to take one for the team. I have done this before. Duh!!! I just realized that I can go back to that post and I should be able to figure it out.


Anywho, the only pictures I have of my car are on my phone and with the way the sun was shining it doesn't do my car justice. I am off for 3 days this weekend, and I plan on cleaning my car so I will take pictures then.

All of the pictures in this post are from my cell phone. So not the best pictures. 

This is Dakota about 10 mins ago, if you look you can see that her tail was wagging a mile a minute.  We think that she is husky/lab mix but really not 100% sure.  I still think she is cute.

Photobucket

This is her and Denver sleeping on my bed, he is a four year old White German Shepherd.  My big baby as I call him.  Denver is my Marley for those of you who have seen Marley and Me.  Look at the difference in size, this picture was taking a few weeks ago. 

Photobucket

Joe (my husband) sent me this picture one day while I was at work.  This was just a few days after we got her, she was so little. 

Photobucket

Since I added one of Dakota sleeping here is one of Denver sleeping, he has slept like this since he was too big to get all the way underneath the bed.  I guess this is good enough for him. 

Photobucket

Ok that is enough pictures for now.  My birthday is tomorrow and I will be 29, my hubby gave me my present last night because he couldn't wait...lol.  I was going to post a picture of it but I have to find my digital camera, because my cell does it no justice.  He got me a sunflower charm and chain, I love me some sunflowers and it is beautiful. 

Well I am going to go finish getting ready for my birthday date with the Hubs.  Actually I need to get his butt in gear, he worked out while I was in the shower and he still hasn't gotten a shower.  No smelly hubs on my birthday date!

Until later...

Summer Review

I always sit down here to write out a blog, but then something else grabs my attention and then I can't finish writing. I think I have ADD.


Anywho, soooooooooo much has happened since my last post. Sooooooo much!!
A lot happened this summer.
My neice came to stay with me this summer she got here on July 6th and we flew back to PA together on August 10th. We had a great time, my niece, Joe and I went to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. We went to Dollywood Splash Mountain, we all got burnt, one I can remember how to post pictures I will. I miss her so much now that she isn't here. It was hard coming home and not hanging out with her, she is my babygirl!
While she was her we settled Joe's Workman's Comp case. We got a pretty nice chunk of change we have put most of it away, in savings and CD's. Well, we did buy something with it. Joe flew up to PA 3 days after I got there and we bought our first car a 2010 Mercury Milan. She is actually my car, and yes SHE has a name, Milly. Again pictures soon. We needed a second car anyway since Joe will be going back to work (hopefully soon).
I am so sick of my J O B, I hate dealing with whiney people all day, and I am not talking about the customers, I mean my co-workers. Oh well I have to grin and bear it. Anywho enough of that.
I have some other big news, we have a new addition to our little family. Her name is Dakota, she is white with one brown ear and the other is spotted. She has black spots all over her pink belly. She likes to annoy her big brother Denver by bitting his ears.
We got a puppy, she is actually a rescue, we think she may be husky/lab mix. She is about 11 weeks old. I have forgotten what is like having a puppy. Denver is 4 years old, he is our big boy. He no longer has accidents, or tears up my shoes. He doesn't hide everything under the bed so I can't get to it. But I love her she is so funny, but a big cry baby.
Again, pictures to come!!
I really need to remember how to do it...lol.
Well I think that is for now. I am going to go up to bed and read some more Shattered Dreams by Irene Spencer. I heard about the book over a Chic Chat. I can't keep my hands off of it, it is a good book.
Well I think that is all.
Until later.
