Friday Confessional

Oh hey ladies, it's finally freaking already Friday? Goodness this week dragged on flew by! Whew! Any major confessions this week? You should head on over to Mamarazzi's blog and join the fun! I heart Friday's for this very link up!

I confess... that Gerrad and I have been having 'the great stroller debate' of 2011 and it's starting to work my nerves. No sunshine and roses in this confessional y'all, my hubs is about to be cut (kidding, sort of). We used to own a Chicco travel system when Addaline was born, after she outgrew the car seat, and I thought lugging a larger stroller around was over, we bought a Combi. BIGGEST.MISTAKE.EVER. That thing is the biggest piece 'o crap there ever was, and I've been using it for 2 years, and want to throw it away after every use. I've been trying my hardest to threaten convince him that we NEED a new stroller for general purposes, and our big Disney trip coming up. He keeps disagreeing, enter the 'cut' threat! He doesn't find it necessary that we need to purchase a new stroller to only use it a few times, then I bring up that I can use it IF we ever have another bambino, that's not helping my case either y'all. Any ideas? I am about to pull a 'Gerrad' and just show up with it, using the motto, it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. Sounds fair, right? RIGHT? I think so! 

I confess... that I keep promising the girls that I'm going to make a countdown calendar to Disney and hang it up for them to mark off, and I keep forgetting, or procrastinating... any of you creative ladies have any ideas for making one? I can sew, bow make, you name it, but 'paper goods' are NOT my forte! 

I confess... that I am counting down the days until we can sit out here all spring/summer, and enjoy cooking out with friends!

I confess... that our 8+ year old washer/dryer set is starting to shoot craps (well the washer is). Gerrad looked up the parts for the washer last night that he suspects we need, and they were ONLY a couple hundred dollars. In the world of front loading washer/dryers, ours is apparently a dinosaur. With the cost of parts, it might almost be cheaper to buy a new set, which is NOT in the slightest bit, what this momma would like to spend her dollars on currently, BOO!

I confess... I NEED to get my butt in gear on this fitness thing. I told Gerrad starting Monday I am going to the gym 3 mornings a week, so wish me luck! My goal for April/May is to shed some of this unwanted poundage, anyone want to hold me accountable? 

I confess... I cannot stop watching this video, it CRACKS me up! It reminds me of all the 'dads' in our group of friends, and my own dad and father in law! Esp the part about the mower (yeah Steve, I'm talking about YOU :)) Take 3 minutes out of your day and enjoy a laugh, and think about our household when the guy says he's got 'dozens of dollars, and he gives them all to his daughters and wife' HA! Oh AND the part that says 'me with my sweet goatee,' Gerrad much?!






P.S. I'm watching this video as I type, and cracking up! It's the simple things people, it doesn't take much to make me laugh!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!
