Things that only another woman would understand.

Today I'm going to take a leap into a topic I have never discussed on my blog before, because well it's mine and I can. =) I am talking about that "gift" that is special to us women, that little visitor we get every month whether we want to or not. I swear it was a man that decided to call it a gift, cause us girls ALL know better. Don't get me wrong if mine shows up a few days past when it's expected, I tend to worry a bit. Since I had my tubes tied almost four years ago I know you understand. Once it rears it's ugly little head I'm ready for it to be gone again for another month.
The reason I bring it up is because I was told the funniest thing years ago and something sparked the memory. I think it was the reminder on the shopping list that I need to pick up those needed items for this month. Never a good thing to run out of. =)
As we girls know there are Nintygabillion different products that are available for us to use to make this time not quite so trying. There are pads, tampons, Diva Cups (EWWWW), and who knows what else. Now I know we all use different things for different reasons. I personally am a tampon person, however since the tubal the first day or so that is not a possibility. So pads it is. Personally I don't care for the "diaper" feel, but pain is not my thing either so I deal.
Getting back to the reason for the post. I know someone who is several (10) years older than I am. Who has never, ever, NEVER used a tampon. I know that in itself is not a big deal. However, I also know that most women at least try them once. Her reasoning for not though is without a doubt one of the funniest things I have ever heard in my life.. (If you have to pee... now would be the time). Don't say I didn't warn you.

She is afraid it's going to get....................................LOST!!! Like end up some place in her body lost.

When I heard this I literally burst out laughing. Anyone who knows anything about the female body, which being one you kinda have to figure she might know at least a bit, knows that it's just not possible. Plus correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that part of what the string is for?

So my question for my lovely followers is what is the craziest thing you have ever heard????

Happy 7th Anniversary to my awesome husband.

Seven years ago I married my very best friend. We've been together eight very wonderful years. I can honestly say I love him more with each passing day. I know that everything he does he does for us. I look forward to spending many, many, many more years with this awesome man.

Jerry, You are most definitely my best friend, the man of my dreams, and the love of my life. I thank God everyday for blessing me with you. Thank you for all of things you do. Know that I love you. I loved you yesterday, I love you today, I'll love you even more tomorrow, and for the rest of my life. Thank you for making me yours, and thank you for all of the wonderful memories. Most of all thank you for being you!!!! I love you!

Moving

After two years and three months in Albany Georgia, we decided we needed a change. So as of almost a week ago we are now living in Oxford Alabama. I now remember why I hate moving. I can honestly say this move was a wonderful thing though. Jerry is no longer as stressed, and as a result has only had heartburn once in the last week. For those who know us personally, you know that is a major feat in itself. Made even more earth shattering by the fact that he is not taking the Prilosec anymore.

Chase is adjusting well to the change. This provides him an opportunity to get to know this part of his family. I mean really get to know them, not just see them once, MAYBE twice a year. Will post more later. Time to get back to cleaning and organizing the house.

My awesome husband

On October 18, 2003 was my very first day at a new job. This was also the day I met the man who I can now not picture being a part of my life. We spent the next two weeks getting to know each other. Jerry made a point of coming in the store every time he drove by and I was at work.

November 3, 2003- Jerry came into see me while I was at work. He asked what I was doing when I got off work. When I told him I didn't have any plans, he replied. "Spend some time with me. I promise if you give me a chance you'll never regret it."

November 3, 2011- 8 years later I am so very glad I took that chance. Jerry is my husband, my lover, my confidante, and my very best friend. I can not imagine my life without him in it. The longer he and I are together, the longer I hope we get to spend together. I love him more with every passing day. Until I met him I never understood unconditional love. Now I know what's it's like to be loved because of the person I am. I know that I deserve to be loved like this.

I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to my wonderful husband Jerry for 8 wonderful years, with many, many, many more to follow.

Jerry, I love you more than I can ever hope to be able to express in words. However, I plan to spend the rest of my life trying to show you. Thank you for being you. Also, thank you for loving me like you do!!!
                                                                  Love Always,
                                                                        Yours Forever,
                                                                             Suzanne

After a much needed internet break I am now back and ready to blog like never before.

Things that have happened since my last blog.
We are in the process of moving (not a great idea to have a tooth pulled at the same time).
Jerry went to work for Prince Chevrolet. As of Friday ( 10-28-2011) he is back at Carl Gregory (again) as the Hyundai manager (again).
Chase is growing like a weed. He is going to be taller then me by Kindergarten if he doesn't slow down some.

OMG. Can people be anymore dumb??

Wow. It becomes clearer and clearer to me that the world is full of selfish, self-centered, self-absorbed, entitled morons. Why should these places be able to ban children? I completely understand not wanting to be subjected to the little "darling" whose parents can't be bothered, I agree. BUT what about those of us who are raising well behaved children. My almost 4 year old has been going to the movie theater with us since he was 2 weeks old, we HAVE NEVER had any issues. He either watches the movie, or goes to sleep.

Potty Training

Today is day #2 of HCPT (Hard Core Potty Training). He has been naked during all of his awake time. We have had ZERO accidents. This makes me glad that I waited to really work on it until I KNEW he was ready. As parents we know our children better than anyone else. This is my 3rd, also my easiest to potty train.
