Marlee is Now MARLEY!!

Oh MAN. Literally.  LOL.
Yesterday I take my little puppy girl Marlee to the vet for her first shots.  It's going good as she gets on the table and she is really calm with the staff there.
Then I start answering their questions, referring to Marlee as a girl dog, and low and behold…..
SHE IS A BOY.
How did I not spot the penis???
I have never had a dog before in my life so I wasn't really sure what that area looked like, and thought maybe that area was what it looks like before they get fixed.
I was wrong.
Poor MARLEY was my little sassy girl boy dog with a pink harness until yesterday.
Thanks breeder, you are officially the worst breeder I have ever heard of. LOL
It's a good thing I could provide the office with a really great laugh, and this is for sure one of the funniest experiences I have ever gone through.
I still love him to pieces and am glad we picked a neutral name HAHAHAHAHAHA.
Until next time friends!
I hope this made you laugh!! :)

Extreme Couponing!!!!

Okay so I wasn't going to become one of those crazy ladies who spend countless hours stalking grocery stores.
Or spend spend hours at a checkout.
Or has a mini store insider their house.
But after I saw last night's episode of extreme couponing, I cannot help but want to give it a try.  One lady had groceries that added up to $1800 and she only paid like 15 bucks or something CRAZY like that.

I cannot help but want to be like these women.

I have a family of four (3 of those male I might add) so our grocery bill is OUT OF CONTROL.
I probably spend like $500 on groceries a month at LEAST.

If I could get this down to a minimum I would be SOOOOO happy.
So I have signed up for a few online couponing sites, and I got an e-book telling me the basics on how to do this.  I also had a friend share a couple of her tips.

I must say, I am a little excited.
I will be sure to let you guys know how things are going.  I suspect to have my first real trip planned out in about a month.
We shall see.
Oh and if anyone has tips, feel free to share!!!

Until next time~

Life So Far With a Puppy...

No one told me having a puppy would be like having a baby…
HAHA
Well that is okay because for some reason I was having a baby itch. Like I needed to have my third and final baby…
I definitely wasn't thinking straight.
Right now I have a 4 year old, a 2 year old, school, work, a husband in the Army, and everything else on my plate, adding a baby would have been CHAOS!!!!
I'm not sure what I was thinking, but I have a feeling it was because I was watching "Pregnant in Heels" on Bravo…
Those ladies on that show are so stinkin cute and get to wear the cutest shoes while pregnant!!
Anyway…
That is where my itch came from, and I ignored it for a few weeks thinking it would just go away.
It didn't.
So I decided to start researching puppies and decided if I found the right puppy at the right price, then it was meant to be.

That's when I found Marlee.
She has been such a great addition to our family.  She is not a big barker, goes pee on the pad most of the time, and is working on pooping on places other than my carpet.
She eats great, and can listen most of the time, and sleeps all night if I didn't take her out to pee.
I'm in LOVE!!!
And by the way, the baby itch is gone for now ;)
Now, I don't know much about puppies, and I know that I need to start crate training her on Friday.  This will be tough I assume.  I still need to get her a puppy check up, and her first puppy hair cut.
Pics will come :)
On another note, I am on day 5 after my surgery, and it is going ok.  I wake up feeling horrible, then way better later in the day.  I would hope none of my children will have to go through this, it is very painful.
At least I get to see my mommy this weekend.  She is coming for a visit for a few days and I cannot wait.  I feel like I haven't seen her in sooooo long!!
I plan on nice long talks with her during the night, and plenty trips to the coffee shop! :)
Until next time!

I'm Alive!!

Here I am blogging from my bed. I just wanted you all to know I did survive my tonsilectomy:)
Let's just say, it's been one of the worst surgeries I've had to recover from!
Ive never wanted to eat food more in my life lol.
So cherish that peanut butter and jelly sandwich because I would LOVE one right now.
On the plus side I've lost 4 lbs since Friday! Not too bad huh? I guess eating nothing but popsicles and gatorade is the winning diet ;)
I hope everyone is enjoying their mother's day!!
If anyone has any ideas on soft food I can eat other than pudding and applesauce let me know!!! I'm one hungry woman!!
Until next time~

Finally Got a Puppy!!!!

Okay so I FINALLY got what I have been wanting.
NO, it's not a baby girl…
Its a PUPPY!!!!!
Her name is Marlee, and she is a shorkie!

I am beyond happy.  She gets along with the kids perfectly, and she has been behaving very well for being in her new environment.
So far, she has only pooped in the house once, but I have gotten her to successfully pee outside ;)
She is the perfect lap dog and I cannot wait to have her be my cuddle buddy!!
On another serious note, I found out I am getting my tonsils taken out next Thursday!!!! This is a long time coming, as my tonsils have been giving me trouble for years now.
I am just a little nervous because I have never had a surgery like this before so I have no idea what to expect!
Any suggestions??

Until next time…

I Want a SHORKIE!!!!!

I have no idea why I am feeling the need for a dog right now, but the feeling is strong!

My husband is strongly against all animals, and to him I say BAHUMBUG!!

This is a pic of the dog I want:

SO STINKIN CUTE. 

It's a Yorkie shih tzu mix.  

I am so in love.

Now, I just need to make sure I am not allergic too terribly, and that it would get along with my crazy boys.

Any advice and comments are much appreciated :)

Until next time~

Ex Boyfriend DRAMA YEARS LATER!!!!

Bear with me, this is going to me a complain fest.

I mean, I am typing REALLY hard right now.

I swear, if I have to pay one more penny for something that I should not have to pay…I will WIG OUT.

Do we all know the ex boyfriend trouble??

Well I think that mine gives me flipping problems from hell.

First of all, I have moved on (OBVIOUSLY), and I have not asked for ONE DIME of child support from him.
Nice of me huh?

Well to pay me back he has not paid one cent on the credit cards HE maxed out on Ebay without my consent, and now I get this letter today saying I owe the apartments I lived in YEARS ago over $200!?!?!?!

WHAT THE HECK???

Ugh so frustrating.

Sometimes I wish I could just have one phone call with him where I could just CUSS him out.

Then I just need to take a deep breath and look at what I did get from the relationship.

My son Jackson.

Without all this BS I wouldn't have him, so for that I am thankful.

But this debt still pisses me offffff!!!!!!!!!!
LOL.
Thanks to you all for letting me get this out!!!!

Until next time…
