100th Post, Here I come!

I just realized that I'm coming up on my 100th post! =D I think that calls for a celebration, don't you? So, in order to celebrate this joyous occasion I'm thinking of doing a Q & A post/session. We are currently on post number 92, so that leaves 8 more posts. In the meantime, feel free to email me questions you want answers to about me, my hubby, our psycho dog, Army life, etc. I will attempt to answer all of them (unless there are 5 bazillion). So, gets those brains a-workin' and come up with some good questions!

 I am so ready for tomorrow to get here. I dropped Joe off at the base this morning for his "camp out" (as his mom said) for the week. No phone, no email, no nothing until Friday. *insert my pouting face here*But, tomorrow my wonderful, fabulous, awesome sister in law is coming to rescue me! I'm so excited. Oh, and this little girl is going to need me to babysit her for a couple hours while I'm there. =)

Wouldn't you want to babysit this cuteness?! =D

So, for today and the small part of tomorrow that I will be alone in this apartment, I am getting caught up on laundry and finishing some cleaning. Have I mentioned to you that I hate doing laundry? Actually, I don't mind it so much...if the washer/dryer is in my house/apt! I'm not liking this hauling laundry down to the laundry facility and waiting for other people to move their clothes so I can wash my own. *sigh* One day, one day I will have a washer/dryer and never, ever have to worry about this again!

I feel like I might possibly be the only one who cleans like a mad woman when my in-laws come to town. Am I alone? Do you do these things too? For some reason, I feel like they'll all think that I'm some terrible wife if my home isn't immaculately clean and smelling like a bunch of roses. Well, I'm off to switch out laundry...and finish my marathon of Grey's Anatomy. =) Hehehe.

Hope your week got off to a good start {with the exception of daylight savings time...which I completely forgot about}! Don't forget to start emailing me with questions - look to the left under my pic, copy and paste my address and send away!

Taking A Break

I'm breaking from cleaning right now. Ellen is on, so I have to watch! =)

I tried out my new Pilates DVD today and was severely disappointed. I was really excited about it, too! Although, I suppose I shouldn't have expected much from a $6 DVD from FYE. Oh well. I did manage to do part of that DVD and some more Pilates thanks to Netflix on the Xbox. Now, my abs are killing me! No pain, no gain. Right?

Then, I put in 2 loads of laundry. We did 2 loads yesterday, 2 loads today...and I still have laundry that needs washing. But do I have the money for that? Um, no. I seriously hate having to pay to wash/dry clothes. Joe and I looked at washers and dryers on Saturday. I don't think we'll be getting them any time soon...but it's definitely worth saving for. I mean, we could save up for a couple months and never have to worry about it again! I cleaned the kitchen, bathroom, and I will clean the living room [and desk] as soon as Ellen is over.

I spent half the morning freaking out because I realized that we're barely going to make it until the next payday. This is all thanks to my debt. *sigh* Why I ever got convinced that I'd be able to pay off the card before the wedding, I'll never know. Enter one year of no payments, a couple payments made, and an unemployed husband...the card fell off the list of things to pay. So, we're paying it off today and rent is due in 4 days. Well, actually it's due today...but, let's face it - not gonna happen. I decided to put the [new to us] iMac that we rarely use and don't want to spend the time fixing up on Craigslist. I'm hoping I'll be able to sell it and use the money to help get us between paydays. I thought my living paycheck to paycheck days were over once we got his first Army check. Boy, was I wrong. Maybe God is just trying to remind me that we can't make it on our own without Him. We haven't really been tithing like we should...I'm just praying that I  can sell this thing. We're not attached to it. We barely use it because it's slow, and we can't fix it up because it would take way more time, money, and effort than we're willing to put into it. Let's hope this works!

I know I told you I'd have pictures for you today but, alas, I do not. Don't hate me. I big puffy heart all of you!
