Thursday Five

Happy Thursday!

In honor of Mrs. Gambizzle's time in Boston, I'm using Boston slang words!

It would be fun to see words that you use in your state..

or you can use these Bostonian words!

Write your post, link up,

and head over to Mrs. G's page to read about Texan slang!

Have fun!

Wicked (definition: very)

Mint (definition: excellent!)

Pissa (definition: cool, good)

Fresh (definition: describes any undesired behavior)
Wicked Pissa (definition: something is so cool there's no words to describe it)

1. I had a wicked good time drinking beehs at the bah (beers at the bar) with my friend Lindsey...she is hilarious and I'm always laughing when we are together!

2. I think it would be mint if the government could actually figure out what the heck to do with the budget. Honestly, I'm not freaking out over it (yet) but I'm thanking God we have money in savings.

3. I've had a pissa time with Betty...I'm pretty sure we've seen all the tourist sites, drank more beer than we ever thought possible, and even made it to New Hampshire and Maine...all in two weeks!

4. We have two very fresh dogs in this house! They are lucky they are so cute or they would be in a whole lot of trouble!

5. Betty is not a baseball fan...but I think she had a wicked pissa time watching the Rangers sweep the Red Sox!

Delightful

Happy

Superb

Gorgeous

Loved

1. I signed into Facebook the other day and read some delightful news from the hubby! He hasn't been smoking for three days! YAY hubby!

2. Veronica came over for dinner the other night. It makes me happy that my college roommates still look forward to my cooking!

3. Me and Betty went to the Nashoba Valley Winery with my Nana. The wine was so yummy...I'd love to go back for a tour! We had a superb time!

4. I've been feeling less-than-gorgeous lately. I need to get my butt in gear, eat right and workout. I only want to get a few pounds off, but I know if I don't do it sooner than later I'll regret it!

5. Please show your puppies some extra love today. Read this story of an amazing dog and you will not want to let go of your puppy. Warning: Some of the photos are graphic. This story has seriously touched me and I can not stop thinking about little Patrick. It breaks my heart....but makes me feel happy that he is so loved now!

And what a fabulous Thursday it is!

Well, minus this disgusting weather we're having in Massachusetts.

But you know what today is? Mrs. Gambizzle is visiting!

And this little thing called Thursday Five!

Outstanding

Proud

Energized

Splendid

Wonderful

1. I hung out with my college Roomie the other day...we're planning an outstanding sleepover/tea party to celebrate the royal wedding. Our nerdy celebrations really make me miss college!

2. I'm so proud of Miley. She has been a perfect little angel since we left North Carolina. People probably think I'm lying when I say she's a pest!

3. I bought some new sneakers the other day. I thought it was a load-of-crap that they would help burn calories and get a better workout. But oh my goodness...these sneakers leave me feeling so energized! I'm in love!

4.I have some splendid bloggy fun planned for Friday...so make sure you check back!

5. Yesterday was my Dad's birthday. It was wonderful being home to celebrate! It's the first one I've been home for in a while (college, work, living in a different state) so it was awesome being able to hangout with the family!

Happy Thursday & Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I'm not Irish but I've been to Ireland...

and I drank green beer in Jamaica once!

Time to sit down and think about the five things that have made you...

Upbeat

Fantastic

Accomplished

Thoughtful

Brilliant

1. I really love Zumba! The classes are so upbeat...and now I can do Zumba everyday in my living room because I'm the proud owner of Zumba for the Wii!

2. Danny's on the range this week....just in time for desert cammies! This is pretty fantastic!

3. Mail time is my favorite time of the day...even when we get bills. Why? Because there are very rarely surprises. Exception: Time Warner Cable. They bumped our price up over $30. After threatening to downgrade our service or leaving them all together...we are now paying less than we used to. I love accomplishing things like this!

4. I would like to thank all of our super thoughtful friends and family. My amazing parents, Roomie and bestie sent us anniversary cards...and we got a ton of congratulations on Facebook. I have the best friends a girl could ask for!

5.I haven't met up with new bloggy-loves in a long time. I have a brilliant idea to meet up with some in Boston. Any Massachusetts bloggers on here?!

Have you noticed that I've been posting Thursday Five on Wednesdays?
I'm hoping if people see the words early they will have plenty of time to

Peaceful

Loved

Awesome

Lucky

Smart

1. I think the most peaceful part of my day is first thing in the morning: news, blogging and coffee. Perfect start to everyday!

2. I feel loved each and everyday. It's the little things that count...like Danny bringing out the trash without me even asking!

3. The past few days have been awesome! Drinks with friends, comedy night at the winery, hubby home for dinner, lunch with Katie, Mardi Gras with the girls...and a perfectly behaved puppy! Have I mentioned lately that life is good?!

4. We are so lucky..Danny talked to the head of night crew and they are letting him go to days while Kaleb visits over the summer!

5. When driving on base...be smart and ask for directions. Or else you will end up at a dead-end, one lane road with no place to turn around!

Thursday Five

It's really Thursday? I can't decide if this week has dragged along or flew by.
It's been one of those weeks.
But, of course, there have been atleast five things that have been...

Fabulous

Satisfying

Amazing

Sweet

Jubilant

1. I wish I never got my wisdom teeth out. They weren't bothering me at all, but since the surgery my bite has been off, my jaw has felt funny, and I can't eat a damn thing! I would like to thank Cookout for having fabulous peanut butter milkshakes....they have been my main source of "nutrition."

2. I'm so excited that we finally got our taxes done. I'm satisfied with the amount we're getting back...even though I'm convinced I probably messed up my Avon stuff.

3. Miley is an amazing cuddler. We fell asleep on the couch...woke up and continued the cuddles in bed. She's the best puppy!

4. I love planning. If you're in the Jacksonville area the girls are getting together for Mardi Gras! I want to do something for St. Patrick's Day too! Oh, and have you bought anything from the Flip Flops and Combat Boots Scentsy Party? If you buy, you have FIVE chances win products! How sweet is that!?

5. I'm very jubilant that my awful neighbors are moving out! The Uhaul pulled up yesterday and I nearly jumped for joy!

Only link up Thursday Five posts!

It's an easy concept...yet people still link up random posts.

Thursday Five

I missed you all last week!

I hope you were able to survive the week off,

it just means this week we have lots of catching up to do!

Here are the words...

Outstanding

Refreshed

Adored

Cheerful

Cool

I'm a huge budget-er...like, huge. I 110% believe in the envelope system. We are resigning our lease and rent is going up (whatever happened to being grandfathered in?) but lucky for us BAH went up. I redid our budget this week. It's outstanding! Putting away a lot into savings, saving for summer, vacation, Christmas (yes, I budget months and months in advance) and of course...the two weddings we have been invited to!

After eight days away from everything I feel so refreshed. It's so nice to wake up when you want, lounge in bed for as long as you want, shower with no interruptions, not cook dinner and have no stress at all. Jeez it sounds like I'm talking about a baby free week...but I'm talking about the puppy!

I adore my bestie, Katie. I love our lunch and coffee dates. She's the first friend I had in Jacksonville and I am so so thankful for her! By the way, have you seen the giveaway she had to "force" me to do?! Check it out here!

I was not happy when Danny said our car failed inspection. We went to Autozone to get some parts and I was cheerful when the guy helping us gave us a huge discount. The discount didn't even make sense to me though, he added stuff to our order but it was less money! I'll take it!

How cool is this? I'll be going home for a few weeks and my blog bestie Mrs. Gambizzle is going to visit me in Boston! We've started planning and I can not wait! There are so many things I want to show her in the city! I'm so excited!

Now it's your turn!

Don't forget, only link up Thursday Five posts!

Thursday Five

This was seriously such a good week.
Have you noticed my new layout?
That I created all by myself!

Here are the five things that have made me...

Excited

Delightful

Thankful

Super
Appreciative

I get so excited when Duplin Winery delivers to me! Such a good package this month...two of my favorite wines and a margarita mix. They know me so well!

We've had some pretty delightful mornings lately....over the weekend Miley slept late. Usually she wakes up no later than 7:15..Sunday we weren't out of bed until 10! This makes me a very happy puppy-mommy!

So, my Mom reads my blog. When she read about no-new-outfits for Disney she told me to go shopping...I told her no. Well, to my surprise a package showed up at my door Monday...she shipped them out before I even wrote that blog, she said she had a good laugh when she read my blog! I'm so thankful for my awesome Mom!

I had a super girls night with Jennifer..drinks, dinner and a movie. We watched The Town...and I decided that I need to take all my friends to Boston to show them that Boston isn't as scummy as the movies make it out to be!

I love swaps. I've very appreciative of both packages I received this week! Accessories from Pam and an awesome XOXO package from MJ! I loved everything!

Link up Thursday Five Posts only PLEASE!

I always love Thursdays. But this week it's even better.

It's been the longest, crappiest week...I just want it to be over.

I had a hard time with this weeks list...

I hope everyone is having a better week!

Honest

Splendid

Perfect

Spectacular

Fancy

I'll be honest...this week has kind of sucked, this list is going to be tough!

Has anyone seen the Hilary Duff movie called Beauty and the Briefcase? It's a super cheesy love story, but it was great to watch on a rainy day. I'm a huge Hilary fan...I think she is splendid!

I put my muscles to work the other night...and rearranged our bedroom. I have two CSN stores gift certificates, I'm going to put them to use and make our room look perfect!

We found out when Danny will be going to Yuma. I'm in the process of making some spectacular plans!

Danny doesn't know it yet...but after this shitty week, I want to go on a fancy date!

Thursday Five

It's time to link up your Thursday Five!

Patient

Joyful

Marvelous

Grateful

Wonderful

I think I have been incredibly patient waiting for Danny's leave to be approved. You heard right, we are going to Disney and Danny doesn't even have it off yet. Give it a week and I'll be freaking out about it!

Last week I reviewed a book...and I was so joyful when I saw that the author left me a comment!

I had a marvelous lunch with Breanna and Anna. I always love girl time..and meeting new bloggy loves!

I'm grateful for everything in my life, all the experience I have been able to have, and all of the people I have met.

The other day we had a wonderful surprise waiting for us in the mailbox...Reina and Dave's Save the Date! We are so excited for their wedding!

Hello Thursday!

Time to grab the button, write your list, and link up!

Blessed
Incredible
Productive

Elated

Happy

I'm blessed to have the best husband in the world. If he's home at night he tucks me into bed...maybe I'm a little spoiled!

Last week I went to my first Zumba class with Jennifer. I have no Latin rhythm...so I always look like I'm doing the twist. But after the class I felt incredible!

I rearranged the bathroom and kitchen...and in the process sprucing up the bedrooms. I'm feeling very productive!

I got the best text message from my friend Veronica yesterday. She asked me to be a bridesmaid in her wedding!! Ah, elated doesn't even begin to describe my feelings about this!

We got our Disney vacation package in the mail...it's coming up FAST! This is our first vacation alone (no family, no friends, no dog!) I'm happy that we (finally!) get some alone time!

Thursday Five

Happy Thursday!

Every week less and less people link up...what's with that?!
So, I'm posting early in hopes that more people will link up (yes, I'm begging!)

And just a reminder, only link up if your post is a Thursday Five post!

Here's this weeks words!

Happy
Jubilant

Grateful

Loved

Thankful

As you know I'm a huge fan of swap.com. I mailed out five books the other day...for only $25. How the heck does that make sense? The postal worker said one book was $13 and the other was $12. What about the other 3? I'm happy that I somehow got a bargain!

I'm jubilant that I got to have dinner with mama-to-be, Breanna! It's been forever since we've hungout!

I hate snow but I'm grateful that Danny had two nights off! We watched some movies, I read a lot and he played COD (of course!) Being stuck in the house for two days isn't that bad! Check out all the white stuff!

We had a great time at Katie and Frank's wedding over the weekend. Katie gave me the sweetest note the night of the rehearsal dinner...I felt so loved!

Mom sent a package full of coupons, coffee and puppy treats! I'm very thankful for all the packages she sends us!

Thursday Five

Happy New Year!

Still looking for a New Year Resolution?

How about linking up with Thursday Five every week?

That way you can look back on the things that have made you...

lucky

delighted

ecstatic

giggly

joyed

Me and Danny are so lucky to have made great friends in North Carolina. This weekend we said "see ya later" to another couple. Carmen and Mike have become such amazing friends...we are going to miss them so much.

I got a huge Omaha Steak order the other day. When I opened it the contents were TOO cold, I was burned by the packages and got blisters on my fingers. I tweeted it, Omaha Steaks saw it and I'm delighted to say they are sending me creme brule and filet mignon as a way to say sorry!

We hit up Walmart and Kmart over the weekend for some awesome Christmas decorating savings. $15 at Walmart and $30 at Kmart and we are all set for next Christmas. I was ecstatic with the savings!

I was so giggly when UPS delivered my 2010 scrapbook from Shutterfly. I am so happy with it...and can't wait for people to come over so I can show it off!

It's the big weekend for Katie and Frank! I am so joyed to be a part of it!

Happy
Delighted
Grateful
Totally Stoked
Thankful

I'm so happy to be back in my own bed! Not only is my back feeling better...but I'm not freezing to death either!

Miley has been such a good girl lately, we went out and bought her a ton of new toys. I'm delighted that she hasn't destroyed them yet!

I'm grateful that we were able to use Danny's mom's car for our roadtrip...it was nice not having to put the miles on our car!

How totally stoked was I when the Kennedy Center Awards were on the other night? Paul McCartney AND Oprah? I was in heaven!

I am so thankful that I was home when I was feeling sick the other day. Mom made me Lipton Noodle Soup (twice!) and gave me lots of meds. She's the best!

And BONUS! We got a ton of Christmas cards! When we left for Boston we had 7..now it covers a much bigger area!

Jubilant

Giddy

Excited

Thankful

Stoked

{Jubilant} On Monday I had lunch with my cousin, Nick's, fiance. It was great to finally meet her and have some quality girl time!

{Giddy} I honestly do not remember the last time I decorated a Christmas tree. But this year me and Danny got to decorate with my family!

{Excited} Miley is loving Massachusetts...it must be like doggy Disney World! So many toys...and now there is even snow to play with!

{Thankful} Tuesday night me and Danny did some townie bar-hoping. Our first stop was the restaurant I worked at for seven years. Totally didn't expect free food and drinks!

{Stoked} Last night we had dinner with Veronica and Pete. It was the first time I saw both of them since they got engaged. They haven't set a date...but I'm super excited for them!
