Duma, a fantastic film


As many of you know I am married without children so I felt a little weird watching what was supposed to be a kids film.  This is a movie about love, friendship, heartbreak and loss. I think everyone old or young can relate to it. I really liked it.
It didn't have amazing acting or deep spiritual meaning but it really touched my heart.

I hope your having a great day!

COACH Valentines tale


The hubs comes home from work and starts telling me about a convo he had with one of his coworkers
"What's up with girls and Valentines day. I mean what do they really want?"
some of the other fellows said flowers, candy jewelry and then one started telling a story.....

'My girlfriend and I have been together for 4 years and this year I wanted to get her something really special. Everytime we go to the mall she points out this purse that she likes. {It's a COACH handbag} So I went to the mall to get it for her and the sales lady says it's the perfect gift. I'm smiling and ask her how much it is. $300. WHAT $300 for a purse to carry her junk? uh, what do you have in the $100 range?'

Apparently several guys have walked up to listen at this point and one says, "Why don't you get it at the flea market. They look exactly the same."

The hubs starts laughing and says, "She'll know the difference."

The other guy is like "no, no she wont I've checked they look exactly the same."

The hubs says, "dude, I've been married 12 years, she'll know, trust me."

The other guy keeps arguing and the hubs walks away.

So he's telling me this story and I am laughing hysterically and the hubs says, "so?"

I calm down a little and said if he got me a fake handbag I would have to re-evaluate our relationship. hahaha
and yes you can tell the difference it smells like plastic!

It turns out the coworker bought his girlfriend a Coach coin purse to match the bag she may have one day and had a great Valentines day to boot.  I'm not sure about fake handbag guy...but I told the hubs I don't want him hanging around with guys like that! :)

Have a great day!

Hit the Brakes Ladies!


UGLY BETTY has been CANCELLED!

aaaagggghhhhhh
but I love it!

Although I must admit I watch it online instead because ABC keeps moving it around

End Rant  :)
Have a nice day

One of these days I'm going to give myself a heartattack


Hello Girls
Things got so hectic I never told my superbowl party story and looking back it's kinda funny

So I joined facebook a couple months ago and a friend of mine from high school was found.
We have been chatting and then a couple days before the superbowl she invited me over for her party.
Yikes!
But I was excited and gave a enthusiastic YES!
Ladies, I'm sure we all look a little different than we did in high school.....nuf said
(It's been about 25 years for me)

Then the hubs advised he would be heading out with the boys for brews & snacks sunday
WHAT?

Ok, I'm not panicking. He wouldn't know anyone anyway so thats ok but a house full of people I've never met and the one person I know is the hostess....OMG

OK so I'm getting ready and I can feel the sweat on my neck but I ignore it and head out with a bottle of wine. Thats a pretty safe hostess gift, right?
On my way I stop at McDons for a cheeseburger to settle my nerves.
I get to her neighborhood and it's adorable.
It's an old fashioned town with craftsman style houses like the one above with the driveways behind the house. She live across from the park sorta behind the town square, lovely.

I walk up to the door and all these boys come racing out of the house and the last one says "go on in" but I'm nervous so I tap on the door then open and there are 100 eyes on me! (ok maybe it was 30 but it felt like a 100) and I'm looking at everyone and NO ONE LOOKS FAMILIAR! OMG

I have the address written down and I checked the house number when I came in so I'm in the right place then someone comes forward and says "I'm so glad you made it" and as we move toward each other I can see it's L and she looks beautiful.
I'm so happy and relieved and she steers me to the kitchen table and we talk and eat for hours.
Everyone was already tucked in and watching the game when I arrived so I got to hear the full scoop. :)
She has 2 beautiful children and her husband is so nice!
and they have 8 Chihuahua's!
they are so cute they look like gizmo from gremlins :)
I totally wanted to take one home.

I did have one (that I know of) moment when we were talking about friends from high school and I mentioned AC and that I couldn't believe she slept with my friends husband.
OOps
Insert foot in mouth!
AC & L are friends, eek.
Sorry L!

Other than that I think the night went pretty well and I had a super fun time.
All that fussing for nothing. When will I learn?

Have a great day!


{please excuse any typos something is wrong with my keyboard}
{I probably spilled snapple on it}

Too Funny


I went to the vetrinarian to pick up Scoobys ashes today and there was a doggie dad with
a Great Dane and a Chihuahua.
They looked just like the 2 in the picture and I thought it was so funny
I started laughing like a crazy person.
There were tears of course but this is the first time I've cracked
a smile in a week.
They were both very sweet and loving and the doggie dad was
telling me there is another Chihuahua and a horse at home.
Can you imagine?

Humor really goes a long way to heal a broken heart.

Have a great day!

SSM and Nail Polish Swap


OK, while reading Short Southern Mamas blog tonight she mentioned a nail polish swap!
I thought that sounded soo fun! Cause some swaps are kinda hard
but a nails and more swap....shoot..it's on girls

I recently participated in Hopsys swap and 4 things pink was the gist
but I ended up getting 1 truly awsome pink item
and some other fun things.
Pink is hard cause there are so many variations.

Anywhooy, I signed right up and I hope you do too because the more the merrier, right?
and it's such a great way to make new friends  :)

Hope all is well.
Have a great day!
