The Naming of Husbands

The naming of husbands is a difficult matter...

OK, I'm talking about what we call our husbands in the online world. Most of us don't use their first names and use some sort of nickname rather than just "husband." But I struggle with this as none of them seem quite right. And those of you without husbands - I know you're rolling your eyes when you hear us use some of these expressions. I'll share some of my issues with the names we frequently use.

{Please tell me that I don't need to explain how this is humorous and you should not take offense if you use these phrases. Because I use them too.}

Husband - Just too formal. Feels like you should go ahead and say "That's Mr. Husband to you!"

Hubby - It sounds a little plump and jolly, neither of which describe my husband. Plus he asked me not to use that one. :)

Hubs - This is the one I currently use but it really struck me as odd the other day. And plural. If I say "My Hubs" maybe you think I have more than one spouse. That's not how I roll.

DH - Text speak for "Darling Husband" which is a little too hip for me. And every time I see it, I first wonder who they are talking about with those initials - *gasp* Is she talking about David Hasselhoff?!

Lover - Um...get a room. Please.

My Man - Well if that doesn't sound like I have a Butler, I don't know what does.

My Guy - If "My Man" is the Butler, then "My Guy" is the Handyman. I require a lot of servants.

The Mister - Lord help The Mister, that comes between me and my sister. Sorry - just watched White Christmas.

My Old Man - You mean my dad?? Because my husband is *not* old. Because that would mean that I am old. And I am not.

What am I left with? I don't know. Maybe we need to come up with something new - our own abbreviation, perhaps.

How about Spouse And Male? You know, SAM. As in, SAM is working from home today and wondering what very important subjects I am writing about instead of doing the dishes.

What do you call your husband? If you're not married, which husband names drive you crazy?

What...did you think I would be talking about Christmas since it's 9 days away?? :)

Have a blessed day and plenty of smiles, friends!

You Gotta Have A Good Story

As I mentioned in my last post, my son recently broke his wrist. It was kind of like deja vu.

This happened in May of 2011:

This happened in February of 2013:

Practically the same thing! The first time he was playing tennis and tripped over his own feet going backwards. He braced his fall and broke his wrist. He had a cast for 6 weeks.

This time, he was going...yes, backwards again! He was walking backwards looking at something and tripped over a backpack behind him. He braced his fall and broke his wrist. He has a cast for 5 weeks {4 to go!}.

My friend that cuts his hair insisted that he come up with a better story to explain the cast - a good story. So today she asked him how he broke his wrist and this was his story:

"Somebody walked out in the street in front of a car. I jumped out to save him from getting hit. But then the car ran over my arm. Luckily it was just a minor break."

Much better, right?! Hee,hee. :)

Have a blessed day friends!

Finding Laughter From The Middle Seat

I traveled back from the Allume conference {just in time to miss the hurricane!} on Sunday. I had 3 flights and spent time in a few airports. By the time I got to the last and longest flight, I almost couldn't handle it anymore! I was squished in the middle seat of the last row with a snoring man's leg touching my leg. Ew.

What got me through {besides prayer...and pretzel M&M's} was thinking about this Brian Regan comedy routine on airlines. So so funny because there is so much truth in it! You really have to watch it - it's hilarious!

Enjoy!

Have a blessed roomy-aisle-seat kind of day friends!

Teaching Your Son What *Not* To Say To a Lady

Aaaahhhh...the good old days. That is my silly but adorable son when he was in 1st grade! But that has turned into this...

...goofy preteen with just enough photo editing skillz to create disturbing pics. LOL! :)

He is quite fond of joking around and really does make us laugh quite often. But he is still in the process of learning which jokes are appropriate and which jokes go too far.

We were getting our fave "fast" food - Chipotle {yum} - about a week ago. As we were getting our utensils, etc., son said something to me.

"Mom, you know, you look sooooooo old."

After I regained consciousness, I didn't quite know what to say, but my son quickly smiled, laughed and told me he was just joking. In true "girl" fashion, I obsessively questioned him all the way back to the car.

What made you say that?

Did something about how I looked or what I was wearing make you think up that comment?

Have you always thought that?

Do I really look old?

Are you embarrassed to be seen with me?

He assured me that the only reason he said it was because he knew it would bug me. Nice. Now the whole thing didn't really bother me - I mean, obviously I forgot all about it and never wrote a blog post about it or anything. *ahem*

Okay, truly I laughed, BUT I had a talk with him explaining that this is *not* the sort of thing that a man of any age should say to any lady. And most especially, he should never say such a thing - no matter how well he thinks the joke will be handled - to his future wife!! :)

Need to Vacuum? 10 Ways to Motivate Yourself

Oh yes, I am all about the helpful housework tips.  Housework is my all-time favorite thing...HA!  Here's a good pic of me - obviously loving the housework.

I do vacuum, really, but not as often as I should.  I tend to put on the blinders until I get really motivated to do it.  But I've got some great ideas that can motivate me, er...I mean you...to vacuum!  ;)

Not that I have tried any of these...*ahem.*

 1. Make sure your dog is shedding to the point where fluffs of dog hair are floating happily around your floor.

 2. Let ants invade - not with one trail to a specific spot - but with scouts sent out all over the place hunting down those remaining Thanksgiving crumbs.

 3. Let the wind and rain drop plenty of leaves on the ground so they can stick to all shoes and get tracked evenly throughout the house.

 4. Have your son take the garbage out by walking through the house instead of going out the back door, with the bag leaving a trail of drips from some mystery substance.

 5. Break a glass or a bowl, but really shatter it completely and from a decent height so that it spreads nice and far. (Actual helpful tip - did you know you can clean up remaining unseen bits of glass with a soft piece of white bread?  Press all around the area and the glass bits will stick to the bread - works like a charm and you'll be amazed at what you missed!)

 6. Have your son do some crafting, especially with glitter.  Make sure he gets up and down and moves around a lot, causing a "breeze" to blow the glitter everywhere.

 7. Spill some food in the kitchen, preferably something out of a box, preferably because somebody put it away with the open end hidden so you accidentally point that end toward the floor.

 8. Use a 3-hole punch on a whole stack of papers, but make sure you don't notice that the bottom isn't on all the way so that when you pick it up the bottom falls off and little paper circles fall all over the place.

 9. Let the dog throw up, in the kitchen, on a rug, right in front of the back door just as you are approaching it to let him out.

10. Walk around in the mud, then let it dry on your shoes and forget all about it.  A couple days later walk all around the house in those shoes so little clumps of dried dirt mark your path.

I am so motivated to vacuum now!  Except that I just did.  Because of the ants.

Are you the sort of person who vacuums daily or are you going to use some of my motivators to help you out?  What vacuum motivational ideas do you have (you *must* have 1!)?

I'm linked up with the fun & fabulous Oh Amanda for Top Ten Tuesday!  Stop over there for more fun!

Have a lovely day friends!!

10 Things You Might Hear Yourself Asking Your 11-Year Old Son

1.  I know it says to pack deodorant, but do you get sweaty under your arms yet?  Do your armpits stink?  I'm not checking - you check.

2.  MUST you keep making that horribly annoying noise?

3.  Are you sure you didn't already hit me for that slugbug?  Seems like the rules keep changing.

4.  Is that what you're going to wear?  Weren't we giving that shirt away?

5.  Can you turn the volume down on that video game?  I'm getting really tired of hearing the same tune over and over and over...and over.

6.  Are you the one that got your friends to make the same annoying noises?  Have you thought of using your powers for good?

7.  Do I need to remind you that your shirt is not a napkin?

8.  Have you seen the bottoms of your feet?  'Cause they are b.l.a.c.k.

9.  Did you forget that we ordered you to stop growing?  (He's over 5'3" and in a size 10 shoe.)

10.  Can you PLEASE go make those noises somewhere where I can't hear them?

Can you relate to any of these?  And who's making that noise??  ;)

When you aren't sure of what to write on your blog, a great place to stop for inspiration is Top Ten Tuesday at Oh Amanda!  I'm linking up - maybe you should too!

Have a fabulous day friends!!

Because Coupons Are Important

We had a little story yesterday that gave us a laugh and hubs thought I should share!

Hubs was busy so kiddo and I decided that take & bake pizza was a must for dinner.  I searched for the perfect (meaning not expired - LOL) coupon and found it!  I called in the pizza.  And off the kiddo and I went to run a couple errands and then get our pepperoni deliciousness.

When we got there, I parked across a row from the pizza place.  I like to send the kiddo in alone to pick up the pizza - good practice for being polite, handling a transaction, and not being afraid to do things on his own as he gets older.  I handed him the cash and the coupon.  He's such a good thrifty kid that he reminded me about my stamp card (which earns 50% off a pizza when full), so I handed him that too.  He then started messing around and dropped the coupon in the car on purpose.  He picked up the coupon and I told him to *please* hold on to it all tightly and he said "of course" and headed in to the pizza place.

After a few minutes, I started watching the door as it usually doesn't take that long.  Then I saw him come out - no pizza.  What??  I saw him start talking to a young man who came out at the same time and they started looking all over the ground.  "Oh no," I thought to myself, assuming he had dropped the cash.  After they were heading my direction still looking around, I started to get out of the car to find out what was going on.  My son headed over to me while I noticed that the young man was talking to somebody driving down our row.

Turns out my son dropped the coupon!  He waited in a small line, and when he got to the cash register to pay he had the cash, the stamp card, but NO coupon!  The lady asked him what it was for (probably to give him the benefit of the doubt) and he had no idea.  He walked away and looked all over the floor in the pizza place - nothing there!  He walked outside and that's when he told the young man that he dropped his coupon.  They couldn't find it anywhere on the sidewalk or in the parking lot.  Then the young man heard my son call out "Mom" and thought he was calling to the person driving down our row.  So the young man started telling the lady in the car "Your son dropped his coupon and can't find it anywhere."  And she was obviously very puzzled, saying "Whaaat????"  Then the young man realized that my son came over to our car and this lady he was talking to was the wrong person.  Oops!  My son overheard him say, "Well that was awkward."  LOLOL!  Poor guy was just trying to help a kid out!

We could not find that coupon and went back into the store.  A nice young couple knew what had transpired and offered us their extra coupons in case one of them was the right one.  One was just right!  I thanked them very much and we finally got our pizza - at the coupon price of course!!!  We still looked for that coupon on the way back out and in the car but never saw it anywhere.

All of that trouble for a coupon?  Yes, coupons are very important to us!  Hey - that coupon was $3 off people!  :)  I will be stapling all coupons to my son's hand from now on.  ;)

Hopefully you got a smile or giggle from our fun, though maybe it's one of those "had-to-be-there" stories.  Are coupons that important to you?  Enjoy the rest of your weekend friends!

A Little Something About Me

I would still love your input on yesterday's post, but in the meantime I thought I'd steal borrow this fun little quiz from my sweet and lovely friend, the Flip-Flop Farmgirl!  :)

Age:  I'm not afraid to say it - 41 people, 41.

Bed size:  That would be a California King 'cause I have a hubs who is 6'6"!

Chore you hate:  Yes.  BAhaha - if you call it chore, then I do NOT like it.  Let's call it Display of Maintenance Skillz that I most dislike.  That would be the toilet and the dishes (and cleaning up after the dog, but I don't do that - that's what sons are for.)  :)

Dogs:  We have a Basset hound named Buster - he's a funny dog and everybody likes him!

Essential start of your day:  Getting everything ready for hubs and son to go to work and school, coffee, breakfast, reading (devotion, 2 chapters Bible, a few pages of my book for the month).  Then I can begin the day!  Well by that time the day is well begun, but that's OK. 

Favorite color:  Red!

Gold or silver:  Silver

Height:  5'5" if you round up...oh and shrinking.  Ugh.

Instruments I play (or have played):  Piano, though not that well. Way back in the day I played the clarinet and the saxophone.

Job Title:  Imperfect Homemaker

Kids:  1 very special, amusing son! Um, and tall.

Live:  California

Mom's name:  Judy (she passed away almost 10 years ago)

Nickname:  My cousins used to call me "Lee" and hubs calls me "honey" and a variety of other little names.  In fact, when he actually uses my first name it startles me - LOL!

Pet peeve:  How much time do we have?  Bad customer service is my top one and people not using turn signals.  And while other people are annoyed by people that are late, I cringe when people show up early - LOL ('cause I run late...sigh).

Quote from a movie:  I know you expect a pretty quote from Pride & Prejudice or something but no, you'll have to put up with a little Napoleon Dynamite (a movie that people either love or hate).  Hubs and I share a goofy sense of humor and love to share silly quotes.  Here's one I like when Napolean is talking to Deb in the school cafeteria:

"I see you're drinking 1%.  Is that 'cause you think you're fat?  'Cause you're not.  You could be drinking whole if you wanted to." 

I'm sorry, but it makes me laugh people!

 

Right or left-handed:  Right

Siblings:  Two younger sisters

Time you wake up:  6:45am on weekdays, as late as I can get away with on weekends

Underwear:  What is this about?  I fully support the wearing of underwear!  :)

Vegetables you dislike:   Oh dear - embarassing: broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, mushrooms, olives, okra, avocado and many more.  I eat some of them mixed into things or prepared certain ways.  If I am at your house and you serve any of these, I will take a scoop and eat it without you ever knowing of my dislike!  I'm that good.  :)

What makes you run late:  My poor judgment of how much time I really need and then when I actually do give myself extra time, Murphy's Law kicks in and I won't be able to find my keys or the dog won't get into his kennel or I'll get a phone call. 

X-rays you've had done:  Dental, lungs, arm, and a few more I'm sure.

Yummy food you make:  Excuse me, but everything I make is yummy - HA!  Right now with the warm weather I'm craving some yummy Tortellini-Chicken Salad.  To go with my coffee, I could handle some Double-Chocolate Walnut Biscotti or Coffee Blondies With a Shot of Chocolate.  And for extreme chocolate cravings, I gotta go with Mix-in-the-Pan Chocolate Cake.  There's just too many things to list!  (You can check out the recipe index if you want or the healthier recipes on the sidebar at my other blog.) 

Zoo animal:  Tiger - so pretty! 

Need some blogging inspiration today?  Wanna join in?  Let me know if you do so I can come and read!

Have a wonderful day friends!

Do You Talk To The Traffic?

I'm sure you ALL talk (or speak in a slightly *raised voice*...ahem) to the traffic, like I do - right?  Right???

Who is this helping?  Of course the traffic cannot hear you!  Is it all for the benefit of the other people in the car that can hear you?  Maybe it helps them truly experience the driving you are doing - heh,heh.  But what about when you are all alone and still talking to the traffic? (Oh please tell me it's not just me!)

I couldn't help giggling about it all last night when I actually heard myself talking aloud to the cars around me - and nobody was in the car with me.  LOL!  I was behind a very s-l-o-w car and heard myself say, "Oh that's not gonna work for me."  I made myself actually LOL at that one!  Here are a few things I've heard myself say:

~ Go, go, go, go GO!
~ Nice turn signal buddy. {sarcasm}
~ C'mon mister.
~ Dude!
~ Thank you!
~ Now we're talkin'.
~ You can do it!
~ Go ahead.
~ UNbelievable!

I'm sure I've said more!  It's rare for me to use full sentences though. 

What have you said out loud to the traffic lately?  (Please leave out the profanities as this is a family blog!!)

Friday Fails ~ Pound Cake

The lovely Myra at My Blessed Life always hosts Friday Fails.  I love a woman that can publicly admit her fails!  I KNOW you know I have fails...regularly.  I just don't always think about blogging them (and I host CHOCOLATE Fridays so my mind is usually on that - I have priorities you know)!

This one was just too good to pass up and I even thought to take a pic.  I was making some desserts that a friend had requested and decided to add a pound cake for her as a surprise.  Of course I should have baked it the night before since I had a hair appointment scheduled in the morning and the pound cake takes an hour and a half to bake.  But I didn't.  So I got up early - not early enough of course - and hurried to get the cake in the oven to finish before my appointment.

It finished up and I took it out of the oven.  I was now running late for my hair appointment as I took too long making the cake!  I was going to be gone quite a while so I wanted to get the cake out of the pan before I left.  It started coming out...and then...disaster!

The cake broke into 4 - yes FOUR pieces, some tumbling onto the table and some burning my arm.  And I had to leave - right then.  *sigh*  I put the pieces onto the rack and left.  Here they are:

Didn't exactly fit my vision of presenting my friend with a nice big pound cake!  Well, I needed a little consolation for this fail:

That helped - LOL!!  I did rescue the fail by slicing off the damaged ends and cutting several slices which I took to my friend!  My family actually liked my fail as it left several pound cake scraps for us to eat and I even froze a chunk to be a nice little bit of dessert some other time.

So I guess it doesn't pay to do things last-minute or to rush.  Maybe I'll grow up someday and learn that.  :)

Doesn't that make you feel better?  If you like to hear other fails (so you know you're not alone - LOL), then stop by My Blessed Life for Friday Fails!

Have a fail-free day friends!

Wordless Wednesday: The Busiest Starbucks?

When I was in Florida recently, I saw something I had never seen!  Now I have been to many different Starbucks locations in a few different states (and yes, I'm a gold member), but these Florida Starbucks people must be *really* obsessed!  Do you see this Starbucks sign?

It's ACROSS the street from a Starbucks with a parking lot and a drive-thru!!  Wow.  That's it - I'm buying stock.  LOL!  Have you ever seen a sign like this?

For more Wordless Wednesday pics, be sure to stop by 5 Minutes For Mom!

She Excels At Finding Shells...Not

When I was in Florida visiting Kim (you can read more of my adventures there on Kim's blog!), we went to the beach so I could collect some sea shells for my son.  Her sweet family helped me find some neat shells in the sand that my kiddo would enjoy - here are most of them...

So pretty!  Now, when I was by myself for a moment on the beach, I spotted another sort of shell in the sand.  It was mostly white and I thought it seemed like the same material as a sand dollar.  It also had a pretty pale blue on the inside.  I had not seen a "shell" like that before and was going to ask Kim or her family about it - but they were heading back already so I threw it in the bag with the other shells.  I never looked at the shells in the bag again and brought them home.

My son was in another room, excitedly looking through his bag of shells when I heard this...

Son:  Mom???
Me:  Yes? (expecting him to tell me how impressed he was at the collection of shells)
Son:  Why'd you bring me a bottle cap??

Go ahead.  Laugh it up.  Hey - at least I admitted it.  And I'll have you know that you are looking at an authentic Florida beach bottle cap!  I guarantee that Kim is STILL laughing at this moment.  :)

I hope you find a little laughter in your day my friends!

The Coffee's Always Better On The Other Side

So I mentioned that I went to visit my friend Kim from Homesteader's Heart last week.  That involved traveling from one side of the country to the other - exciting!

I must say - she took me to some very exciting Florida destinations right off the bat!  Here's one:

But that's not all - she took me here too:

Apparently all the Florida coffee shops are called "Arbucks Coffee."  ;)

What could be better?  How about Starbucks on the beach??

Who would write such a thing in the sand?  Probably some California chick...

Not realizing that I was actually a latte drinker rather than a *coffee* drinker, coffee-loving Kim provided me with an adorable coffee mug and a bag of Starbucks coffee (along with sugar and half 'n half, of course!) to use during my stay.  

Actually, she got me Vanilla Starbucks coffee, but it's gone, baby gone (I prefer the vanilla flavor to the caramel as the caramel is a little too bold for me).

Wanting to be just like Kim, I got *brave* and brewed myself coffee!  I discovered that I don't need as much sugar and half 'n half as I expected (though it's still a lot) so I'll be drinking the coffee from now on - with occasional lattes.  :)

And speaking of having coffee with Kim, did you see our video yet?  We show you - in between laughter - how to make your own pumpkin spice lattes and they're yummy!  Go check it out if you haven't!

Disclosurish stuff:  Hard to believe, but Starbucks did not sponsor this post!  This is all on my own.  And no, I am not obsessed.  Really!  However, I am a Starbucks gold member.  I've even got a coupon for a free Starbucks drink (that I earned myself) in my purse - and I'm not afraid to use it.

More Florida adventures tomorrow...

Have a fabulous day friends!

Welcome to Florida

It was very exciting to head to Florida to visit my friend Kim from Homesteader's Heart!  After she and Kathy from Blessed Beyond Imagination picked me up at the airport, I headed back to Kim's house.  I got to stay in the cute little cottage in her back yard!

Look what greeted me there!

So cute!  And those are Dove bliss chocolates - does she know me or what??!  And I should mention that there were also mints on my pillows, which may or may not have been because I was asking her on e-mail if the cottage had turndown service - LOL!  :)

Looks like I'll be comfortable and happy here during my stay:

At least that's what I thought before I knew what kind of food and drink Kim provides for guests...

Um, thanks for the water and pickles.  You shouldn't have, Kim.  Really.

More adventures tomorrow...

Have a lovely day friends!

Artistic Memories

Shortly before leaving a friend's house after a lovely tea party this weekend, it was discovered that her bathroom had been "redecorated."  The attempt to make the bathroom prettier had been done with a variety of nail polish colors in many areas!  It turned out that her youngest daughter was the artist.  When her daughter was explaining how she was trying to paint the toilet seat purple, I had to walk away to hold back my laughter (so not funny as the mom, but amusing for the observer)!

This incident got me thinking about my son and I was trying to remember if he had done anything artistic like that.  He never did anything with nail polish, thank goodness!  But I finally remembered his big artistic moment (I had completely forgotten about it) when he was about 3 years old.  He had taken his colored pencils and drawn on every single door on the second floor - that would be 6 doors...both sides!!  He sure was a cute little artist though - aren't they all?  :)

Found a pic of my son at that age:

Very hard to be mad at such a cutie - LOL!

You've probably seen some cute little artists in action!  What's your favorite artistic memory?

Have a blessed day friends!
