High Five For Friday!

Yay! We made it to Friday!! Linkin' up w/Lauren {From My Grey Desk} again for another H54F!!  This week truly has been a blessing and I am SO glad it is the weekend!!

1. Do you see how damn hot it was Saturday @ almost 5 PM?  Yes, we were definitely over the 100 degree mark. I believe meterologist clocked {is this correct terminology?} us at 105 degrees at one point.  Ridiculous right?!

2. I had a blast bowling with Bird & my husband!  Birdy won....[*like legit won*]!  I totally choked at the end! I totally had them the entire game!!  I am devastated by this & I have already demanded a rematch!

3. I got to see my man play softball for the first time...EVER! He plays on an adult league with my baby brother.  They take it very serious...like with beer and everything!

4. Yes! The Dollar Tree has opened up in my hometown (the next town over from where I live) & this is very exciting!!!  I guess only small town people understand the huge excitement of this!

5. I received a new twitter follower this week. I always checkout my new followers...this one in particular (@joshingstern) was an author. So I downloaded his book and so far I love it!  It is rude, crude, and a true story!  If you are sensitive to offensive language than this book may not be for you but I love his sense of humor and sarcastic personality...definitely my kind of people; especially since the make your life SO much more funny!  

How was your week??? I wanna know!! Don't forget to check out the other links found in the link up too!  It's fun!

P.S. are you following me on twitter???? You totally should!  ;)

Motivational Monday - I Don't Love You?

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Hello Monday!  So nice to see you again!  Thank goodness for these Motivational Monday's because without them I truly do not feel as though I will be motivated to get things done in my life.  The problem with being motivated is that we sometimes forget to relax and realize there are other people around you who may be feeling neglected.  This week I accomplished some of my short term goals including: Getting blog posts ready for publishing, I scheduled my deck removal and fencing...which I will blog about b/c I am helping do this, and I worked out EVERYDAY last week! [can I get a virtual high five!! whoot! whoot!]  I was super busy, in fact I was so busy, that we didn't really have time to do anything special on Wednesday.  Why is Wednesday special?  Well that is because it was my anniversary.  Yep a whopping 3 YEARS!! [hey, it's longer than my first marriage =)]

Most people believe that we are suppose to still be in our "honeymoon" phase however, that would be for regular couples.  Kevin & I however, are not regular couples....we have both been married and we had already had the kids before the whole marriage thing.  Plus, I made him wait about 2 years to actually walk down the aisle.  Basically, we were pros at the whole "living together" thing and we are just so busy that the whole "honeymoon" thing just got skipped over.

Too many times in life we become so busy and overwhelmed that other's in our life may feel neglected and not loved....my kids included.  So this week I am going to make it a point to let them know, that although I am busy it doesn't mean that I don't love them any less than I do when I am less busy.  This week I am motivating myself to show some more love and make my husband realize that just b/c I am busy doesn't mean I don't love him.  He may get on my nerves and I may be ignoring him [not on purpose] b/c I am tired and feel as though I need to accomplish something that week but I still love him just the same as the first night we sat and talked on the picnic table until midnight at the local Jimmie Cone [maybe even more now].

Remember to love somebody this week and tell them: "Just because I'm busy doesn't mean I don't love you."

P.S. It's totally awesome not to be a regular couple....we are much cooler than those regular couples anyway!
