Best Friends Forever!

Happy Father's Day

It occurred to me this morning that on Father's Day, Dads should be celebrating the joys of Fatherhood. So doesn't that mean that us Moms should leave for the day and go shopping so they can experience that joy all day long?? Ok I know far fetched idea :) Anyway, Happy Father's Day to my adorable husband and to all the Dad's out there. And especially to my Dad who I miss very much and still think about everyday- I love you!

Like a Dumbass

So I was reading Cosmo and I came across an article about taking the pill. It said that I didn't have to have a period and I can just keep taking my active pills and I wouldn't get one. Well this made perfect sense to me and since Cosmo is full of smart and truthful information (ha ha ha) I decided I would try it. Well guess what? You can't trick your body that has been doing the same thing since you were 13 years old- with and without the pill. So I have had 2 periods in 2 weeks. The first one a week after my little experiment of not giving my body that week break of the pill and one now because I am done with the pack of pills I used and so its logical that I would get a period. So yeah for me!! I am bloated, tired, crabby, and best part I have broken out all over my face. So like a dumbass I thought I could fool the system. So I guess I should stop taking Cosmo's advice. Yet I really wanted to try the "10 Best Things you can do for your Husband in Bed" :)

When Toilets Attack

So last night around 6:30 pm, Jon goes down the stairs to water the grass in the backyard. Next thing I heard was "Oh My God! Oh My God!" so of course I come running down the stairs. I see what he is freaking about. The toilet in the downstairs bathroom has flooded our family room! Luckily it is tile downstairs, but I also have a very large rug that was totally soaked. I don't know if you have ever experinced this, but it is not pretty. It's a toliet for one (yeah yuck) and it is tons of water! So we sat there for a good 10 minutes, swearing because that is what you would do, and trying to figure out what to do. Well after an hour of cleaning and such, we had it all cleaned up and disinfected. Now I get to go get a new rug and can admire my clean floors which of course will be dirty by tomorrow because I have two kids :)
