*5 questions*

My girl, Mandy (and Miss Fashionista!  ;) )@ What's new with Mrs. T tagged me in a fun post.....you're asked 5 questions, and you have to give 5 answers to each question.  I love fun posts like these....it helps get to know people better!  And, check out her fabulous blog!  :)

Question 1:  Where were you 5 years ago?

~  One week ago today, I went out on my first date with my husband....awww.  :)
~  Working as a bartender/server @ Chili's....where I actually met my hubby.  (he was my manager!)
~  Living at home with my mother....who drove me crazy!  lol
~  Living the restaurant/bar life....sleeping until 12 every day, working until 10/11pm every night, going to the bar every night after work, and sometimes not coming home until 5 or 6am.  It was definitely fun times!  I could never do it now, though.  haha
~  Looking to find Mr. Right.  Thankfully, I got lucky!


Question 2:  What is (was) on your to-do list today?

~  Well, since it's Saturday, I didn't really have much of a to-do list....so, here are just some things I did today.
~  Laundry
~  Helped DH add the faucet to the shower, so I can finally take a bath in our new shower....woohoo!
~  Slept in.....ahhhhh, it was great!
~  Now, relaxing, blogging, and catching up on my DVR'ed shows with a glass of wine.  


Question 3:  What 5 snacks do you enjoy?

~  Chips, chips, and more chips!  lol  I'm a chipaholic.  
~  Apples/celery/carrots and peanut butter
~  Pretzels
~  Cheese and Wheat Thins
~  Tostitos and guacamole


Question 4:  Name 5 places you have lived.

~  Shelton, CT....born and raised
~  Orlando, FL....Disney Internship in college for 4 months

Unfortunately, I haven't moved around too much in my life.  I've lived in different parts of Shelton, and with different family members, but that's about it.  Pretty boring! 


Question 5:  What 5 things would you do if you were a billionaire?

~  Pay off our mortgage and buy a nice house for DH and our family
~  Pay off my car....and hopefully be able to buy a nice SUV, my 'mom' car.  ;)
~  Plan an exotic vacation for DH and I to go on before we have babies  :)
~  Shopping, of course!
~  Put the rest away for bills, future college fund, savings, etc.

I hope everyone is having a great weekend!  :)

Like my new ticker??

It's in honor of the fact that, this cycle I am 99% sure that I will be O'ing when we're in FL in 2 weeks!  Woohoo!  Hopefully I can make a vacation baby.  I know if it were me, I'd much rather start my existence into this world in warm, sunny, palm tree filled Florida....rather than cold, snowy, dreary CT!  ;) 

See?  More positive thinking!  I like it....it feels much better than sulking.   

It's not looking so good

My temp took a serious nosedive this morning, and the spotting is back in action....soooo, I'm thinking no baby for me this month.  :( 

Sorry, this day had been downhill since I woke up this morning and saw my stupid temperature.  So, I'm feeling sorry for myself for a little bit, and will probably go buy a large bottle of wine on the way home from work today....seeing as how I've had only like, 2 drinks this entire 2ww (and that was only b/c it was Valentine's Day/our 5 year 'dating' anniversary).  So much for that!

*throws myself a pity party*

Anyways....I promise I'll be better and more positive tomorrow.  I just need a day to let it all digest and cry it out.  On to cycle number 4!!  I know a few people that have gotten pregnant on their 4th cycle, so maybe I'll have similar luck.  And, trust me...I know 4 cycles is not long at all to be trying, and that many people have tried for much, much longer with no such luck.  But, with pregnancy/babies being on my mind 24/7 now, every day feels like an eternity. 

Only 2 more days until Friday, right?!  That's positive.  ;)

Giveaway Monday!

Hey ladies!  I just wanted to share with you some fabulous giveaways going on this week!

Sam (and fellow Connecticut-ian...hehe) over at Life Is Beautiful is giving away two gift cards for all of your caffeine lovers!  One card goes to a Dunkin Donuts lover, and the other card goes goes to a Starbucks lover.  You can't go wrong with that!  She's such a sweetheart, too.  You should definitely check out her blog.  :)

The other giveaway is from Mrs. Stoneking at Meet The Stonekings.  She's giving away a gorgeous Waterford crystal ring holder....seriously, who wouldn't want one of those?!  I actually registered for a ring holder just like that, but no one ever bought it for us.  Maybe I'll get lucky this time!  ;)  Definitely check out her site....it's one of my new favorites!



Thanks, everyone!  I hope you all had a great weekend!  

Are you there AF?

It's me, Erika. 

Seriously...what's going on with you?!  You've been teasing me these past couple of days, spotting here and there, but no period in sight.  Grrrr!  So, stupid me took a test at 9DPO....BFN.  I would appreciate it if you would just show your ugly face already, or give me a BFP, m'kay?  You're killing me.   

Thankyouverymuch.
