My Album Cover

YOUR ALBUM COVER

1 - Go to “wikipedia.” Hit “random”
The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to “Random quotations”
The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album. (make sure you hit the new random quotations button at the bottom)

3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use photoshop or similar to put it all together (http://www.picnik.com/) works well, online.

5 - Post it with this text in the “caption” and TAG the friends you want to join in.

Thankful Thursday 
  • that I can read a book more than once, and still enjoy it (I'm currently re-reading 'New Moon' and although majority of Twilight fans are big Edward fans, I have to say, I like me some Jacob! I LOVE the Edward/Bella relationship, and wouldn't change it, but I sure do like Jacob!)
  • Vampire movies/tv shows/books! What can I say, I love vampires!! haha My brother and I have seen MANY a cheesy vampire movie, and I just love it! Who doesn't love Angel and Spike? Come on... David Boreanaz? To quote my sister "There is just something so intriguing about him!"

  • Spring! I am so looking forward to the mud and puddles, the fresh clean small, the green starting to emerge! I REALLY hope my iris and daffodils bloom this year! I dug up and separated the roots of my iris plants, and am not too sure they lived heh

SO excited! They are so pertyful!


  • God's amazing faithfulness! I know right now I should be crazed.. DW got laid off, and my income can't cover all of our expenses, but I know God is faithful! Even if we have to sell our house, or my car, I know that we will be okay! My daddy quoted me a great verse out of Isaiah yesterday when I told him about DW.
Isaiah 26:12 (New International Version)

 LORD, you establish peace for us; 

       all that we have accomplished you have done for us.
  • CD3!! Finally! A new one! An 82 day cycle was a little depressing!
  • As insane as this probably sounds, DW being laid off! We actually got to spend some non-weekend time together! Wowzah!
  • Having my tile almost finished! I think I may have used this one already.. but I'm still thankful it's almost done! The only reason it isn't done, is because I'm being lazy. Plus I'm hormonal and cramptastic! Ohh speaking of which...
  • Super Strength Motrin!! Tis wonderful! haha TMI ALERT! TMI ALERT! As a teen I NEVER got cramps... then I got married, got an abnormal cycle, became infertile, and now on the very rare occasion I actually menstruate, it hurts like stink! And is preceded by 1-2 weeks of crazy boob pain! I could go on with my other 'lovely' side effects of being a female but I shan't... Why do guys get it so easy? Seriously! 
Off to watch Bones now! And who wouldn't wanna see this photo again..... 


*sigh* I so have a married lady crush on him!

All about DW


To semi-copy some random blog I read today, I'm writing a list of ten things my husband does!


  1. Fills my water bottle for me, 99% without any complaint and without being asked.
  2. Plunges the toilet whenever it is needed, regardless of who plugged it.
  3. Tidies the covers before bed, because he knows I LOVE getting into a neat bed, but think it's silly to make it in the morning.. NO one else sees our room, so why bother?
  4. Let's me have the garage, even though he works WAY harder, and I have command start. But Sven is still my new baby.. and I'm scared he will end up like DW's car.. (stolen license plate, broken window, stolen hub caps.. which were silly cheap skull ones!)
  5. Scratches my back, even if he is mostly unconscious! Itchy backs run in the family on my mum's side... and I always seem to get it in the most impossible to reach spot!
  6. Tidies the house with me, because he knows I get bored doing it by myself
  7. Thinks everything I have ever made him (food) is the best tasting thing he has ever had! 
  8. Loves me even though I am ridiculous 99% of the time. Most men deal with a couple of days a month where their woman goes a little ahh emotional? With my lovely out of whack hormones combined with years of infertility, he NEVER knows when I'll end up bawling sitting on the steps, or if he will wake up to me sobbing in the middle of the night. Yet he would never say I'm crazy! (unless you were talking about HSM.. he thinks I'm crazy on that subject)
  9. He encourages me in whatever I am doing, whether it is getting a new sexy tattoo, getting (and sometimes quitting) a job, or trying to loose weight. He is pretty much awesome!
  10. He works incredibly hard 4 nights a week to achieve his goal of MMA fighting! He is a machine! And somehow enjoys all the hard work! Weird eh?

  • Loosing about 10 pounds so far this year.
  • the Munchkin, jeepers she is adorable! She has a 'crush' on DW, and is so hilarious when he is around... grinning shyly, saying 'Hi Dew' randomly. Totally HILARIOUS!
  • Munchkin's love for the HSM soundtrack, she was dancing to 'Now or Never' last night, and trying to get 'Wahbie' (aka Uncle Robbie) to dance with her! Seriously, she is hilarious! I could write a whole post on just how adorable/funny she was last night!
  • Chiropractors - Not only have then done heaps for my dad, myself and DW. Munchkie is now seeing 'Dr. Jack' and it has improved her walking sooo much!! YAY

Forgetful Friday

So, yeah.. its a day late, and apparently I sucked a blogging this week. Probably because I was worried sick (for reason's I shall not explain on my blog), and drugged up because I was also sick... Still am! I am just about over the loveliness of having a double ear infection, and bronchitis! YAY me! Without further ado, 


Thankful Thursday
  • Buckley's cold & Sinus Liquid Gels!
  • Twilight Soundtrack
  • Free date nights thanks to icoke!
  • A steady income (x2 even!!)
  • Cheesy musicals like Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
  • My love for "strange" foods, like spaghetti squash, chick peas, and rye crispbread! 
  • My Stott Pilates mat, it is trés comfy!
Welp, time for my 'Restrictive Procedures' training! Doesn't that sound exciting? haha
