Just to be fair, I really don't believe in all those resolutions that people promise to keep. Just because you want something it doesn't mean that it will happen all of a sudden, just because you made a 'resolution' to yourself. Come on! How often do people actually stick by those? They come and they go, as fleeting as the snow here in Birmingham. Seriously! Did you really drop all the weight that you resolved to lose from the year before? Did you make amends with the person that you haven't spoken to in ages? Did you get a better job? Or even a raise? Have you attended church more than just on Easter and Christmas? And the list goes on and on, my friends. (In all fairness, there are a few of you guys that actually did follow through with your hopes of a better year....and to you I give an applause....more like a standing ovation actually)<br />So, here it is... 2010. A. Fresh. Start.<br />I am not making any irrational, radical decisions to 'change' unless I've already thought it through and committed to it in my mind. I'm not going to just run my mouth about this and that. I really DO want to be different, but most importantly I want to follow through with my change...and I want it to stick. With all this change, I still want to be me...just a better version of me. :)<br />Well, here it goes....my list for the<br /><strong>New 'Me' in the New Year:</strong><br /><strong></strong><br />1. Read my bible/pray more often- Where would I be if God didn't think He had the time for me? How can I not want to devote more time to further developing my relationship with Him? He is my ALL! He is my waymaker! My fortress, my strength, my help, my provider, my healer, my EVERYTHING!!! Without Him I would be nothing! But with His help I want to be more, I want to be better! If you feel the same, you should start by visiting <a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.newlifeupc.com">my church's website</a>. You can watch our services online, listen to old ones, or post prayer requests you may have.<br />2. Volunteer more of my time to helping others- Christmas isn't the only time of year to do this. I want to think of others year-round. It feels good to help those that are in need of it and I want to do more of it this year. I have already signed up for 3 different opportunities and have a friend that is sticking to it with me. If you are interested in giving a little of your time as well, go to <a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.handsonbirmingham.com">"Hands on Birmingham"</a> and sign up.<br />3. I want to be a better wife/homemaker than I have ever been. I want to manage my time more wisely and get this 'nest egg' looking good for my hubby. I want this home to be a place that my husband can unwind and relax and not have to stress about clutter, dirty dishes, laundry, etc.<br />I re-did our room the other day, I mean completely re-did, and it feels good. I feel everything has a place now, which will make it easier for me to keep it clean. I plan to do this with every room in the house, hopefully before the year is over, but I don't want to get ahead of myself.<br />I have been one to always try to cook dinner every night during the week and I've done a pretty good job of it so far...so this is something I want to keep up, as well as make it healthier. Now, if only I could keep all the dishes clean! Lol!<br />I want to love and respect my husband as he deserves, not as I see fit at the moment. He deserves so much more than, being human, I actually give him. I want to lift him up more than ever and never tear him down. I want to be everything he's ever wanted in a wife. I want to be someone he can lean on in a time of need, his second in command, no matter what.<br />4. I want to be a better steward our money than before. First off, I want to cut back where we can and save as much as possible. I also would like to start paying a good amound toward the principal of our car/house notes. And lastly, I want to REMEMBER to write that tithing check every. single. week!<br /><br />Well, That's all folks... That's all I COMMIT to change for now. It's not all I WANT to change, but it's enough to focus on for now. I don't want to overwhelm myself and become like all those other<br />'resolution-makers', do I ? :)Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com88tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-39928454155141839872009-12-26T00:05:00.002-06:002009-12-26T00:13:00.025-06:00Food, food, food...I now have many, many recipes to post on my 'beignets with tiffany' blog. I've been trying new ones out left and right. Everything from chicken tetrazzini to chocolate snowcap espresso cookies! Yum, yum! I have been cooking it up! My husband got a lot of the kitchen gadgets for me that were on my Christmas wish list and I just had to use them today! I made two types of homemade cookies, some tea cakes, and a pizza stick appetizer. I am sooo exhausted and my kitchen is a disaster, but it's been a blast! To say the least, I have had a great Christmas this year! I have enjoyed time with family and friends, as well as, a few new recipes and plenty of mouth-watering food! :) I even played Super Mario 3 tonight! Lol! What more could I ask for?<br /><br />Merry Christmas to you all! Hope it's been a wonderful one!<br />Tell us allll about it! .............Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-24425279392344685762009-12-22T21:36:00.002-06:002009-12-22T22:10:27.474-06:00Am I the only one???December 10, 2009-<br />Have you ever been woken out of your sleep so suddenly that you felt panicked? You spring out of bed feeling as though you broke an instant sweat, heart pounding and all... You are so delirious and ill-focused that you feel as though you are still dreaming! Well, That was a few Saturdays ago for us.<br />My husband and I were fast asleep in bed when there was an unexpected knock on the door. The next thing I knew he was on his feet. I never even felt him move. Haha! He was so out of it that he couldn't find anything modest enough to answer the door in...at least not quick enough. By the time he got downstairs the mailman was driving off... and there it was...the ever-dreaded "sorry we missed you" note posted to our door. Great! Don't you just love these? I mean really, it's not like they ever REALLY wait for you to come to the door! They do their "it's-part-of-my-job-so-I-have-to-do-this-but-I'm-only-going-to-do-this-once" knock. They don't really wait! And they never knock twice! GRRR!<br />So, it's a certified letter from Regions, who we don't have an account with anymore. What is it? Who knows! Is it important? I guess so! It's now December 22, 2009 and we still don't have the above mentioned letter in our posession, despite our many attempts to have it re-delivered. What is up with this? We only have 3 more days before they send it back to Regions! Will we ever know?<br />November 13, 2009-We get off work, rush home to shower and spruce up, and head out to take our ever-dreaded church directory pictures. I always hate these, simply because of the overhanging stress of wanting everything to be perfect...because we all know that it never is! This is always the day of the year that your hair just doesn't want to cooperate, you can't find the right outfit, or your face just so happens to be broken out like you're entering adolescence once again! Surprisingly, we made it through the night, decent pictures and all. So, I decide that I am going to order some cute Christmas cards with this adorable picture of us, to send to family and friends. I decided to order them C.O.D. and pay half up front and half when we receive them. It's now 3 days before Christmas and we have yet to send out our cards. They are apparently lost somewhere in space. They were sent out from the photographer, but somewhere between the post office and our house they were lost, and they can't even be tracked! So dear family and friends, if you are reading this please forgive me! You are not forgotten about! We are thinking of you, I promise! Merry Christmas to you all!<br />And please let me know, am I the only one?Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-13094063834754685332009-04-06T17:12:00.005-05:002009-04-06T17:20:34.428-05:00IHOP, I curse thee...OH, Otis Spunkmeyer...how I love thee! You are so moist and delicious with your dark, rich chocolate flavor and your heavenly bits of chocolate morsels embedded in your top! How I enjoy you!<br /><br />I don't eat you very often, but when I do, my oh my, you satisfy me! Just the thought of you accompanied with a glass of milk is enough to make me curse IHOP and their chocolate chip pancakes!!!!<br /><br />For those that read my previous post, you know how bad I was craving chocolate chip pancakes and while I did not get any, my SWEET, PRECIOUS, PERFECT husband decided that he would go to the store and get something he thought I would enjoy, to curb my craving. He came home with a pack of Otis Spunkmeyer chocolate-chocolate chip muffins and a box of those little Entenmann's brownie bites. So, needless to say, I fell in love with my husband all over again!<br /><br />And just think, we say that men don't understand us. :)Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-16305224869017128222009-04-02T20:02:00.002-05:002009-04-02T20:18:11.233-05:00Sorry...I know, I know. I'm in big trouble for not posting like usual. Lol! As if you guys care! Hahaha. I just haven't had a ton of time or material to post lately. I've been bad, I know. It's okay though, I'm here now. Let's see...what has happened lately?<br /><br />Hmmm...I got my pistol permit and Josh got his also. This means that I can now carry a loaded gun in my car or purse, if I so choose. So, don't make me mad! :)<br /><br />I finally watched "Mamma Mia". I actually just got done watching it like 10 minutes ago. It was really cute, but I honestly wasn't much in the musical mood today. I feel a little more like something serious, like One Tree Hill or something. I love that show!<br /><br />Josh and I ate dinner at his parent's house tonight. His grandparents were in town from Louisiana and Ms. Brenda made a wonderful spaghetti dinner for all of us. It got crowded real quick, though, and was a little more hectic than our taste so we left after a little while. There were just so many people in a small house, which is usually great, but the kids were acting loud and crazy and Josh had just gotten off work...not a great combination. I guess I just feel kinda mellowed out tonight. I would be totally satisfied with sitting around with the adults sipping some coffee...quitely. Ah, how my mother-in-law and I love to do that! And Starbucks is right down the street from her house...which is perfect! Oh, and there is also a Cold Stone Creamery next door to it and a Dippin' Dots across the road. *Sigh. What temptations I have to face!<br /><br />The meds the doctor put me on are working for my heart burn and acid reflux, but they are doing nothing for my stomach. Still the same ol', same ol'. So, I guess she will be having to do some tests when I come in on May 1st. I'm starting to really wonder if I will ever find out what is going on with my body. If anyone is going to find out, it will probably be this doctor. She just really seems like she cares to find out and not to just send me on my way. So, keep me in your thoughts and prayers, if you don't mind. I've had a lot going on with my body over the last few years and honestly, I just want to get back to feeling like my old self again. I am 22 years old and there is no reason I should be living my life like I'm 60!<br /><br />Wow! I am really starting to wonder if this rain is ever going to cease. It has been pouring off and on all day at my house! Maybe I will make some decaf coffee and sit out on the upstairs porch? Hopefully I can do that without getting wet! We shall see.<br /><br />Well, I think I am out for now. I don't have much else to say and I will be surprised to find out that any of you actually read this far into my lame ramblings. Lol! Aunt of 14, thanks for checking in on me.<br />I will try to post something a little more upbeat and interesting tomorrow.<br />Night, bloggy friends!Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-31993414452452908292009-03-27T21:43:00.006-05:002009-03-27T22:15:48.088-05:00So, this is how it feels to be FAMOUS...<a href="http://photobucket.com/images/i%20love%20your%20blog" target="_blank"><img alt="I Love Your Blog Pictures, Images and Photos" src="http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i162/divasista/Blog_Award.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com/images/lemonade%20award" target="_blank"><img alt="Lemonade Stand Award Pictures, Images and Photos" src="http://i722.photobucket.com/albums/ww230/triciacurtis/Awards/LemonadeAward.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />OMG!

I am usually a really mellow person when it comes to music...I love easy listening/jazz/blues...think Norah Jones, Colbie Caillat, Sarah Bareilles, Mikey Wax, John Mayer, etc. I also love oldies, Celtic, big band swing, broadway soundtracks, instrumental, pop, etc. Well, I guess just about anything, but country, rap, or hard rock. It really just depends what type of mood I am in...more times than not, it's mellow.<br />Colors → pink, green, orange,<br />Movies → Comedy, action/drama, thrillers/horrors, romance, chick flicks. Whatever mood I am in.<br /><br />DO YOU BELIEVE IN:<br />Yourself → Yes, somebody has to. :)<br />Miracles → YES, I would be stupid not to!<br />Love at first sight → No! How can you love somebody you don't even know? You are only in love with the "idea" of that person. People say that people change after they get married. This is not true. They just finally reveal their true selves to you--that most likely, you were too blind to see in the first place. ***Sorry if I have stepped on any toes...just being real.<br />Heaven → YES! My life would be a WASTE if I didn't believe in heaven.<br /><br />ANSWER TRUTHFULLY:<br />Is there one person you want to be with right now? → Yes, Josh...but I'm with him right now. So, I would love to be with my nanny and my ma-maw one more time.<br />Are you seriously happy with where you are in life? → YES! I am thrilled to be where I am. I know I have a lot of room for improvement, as does anybody, but I am content right here for now.<br />Do you believe in God → YES!!! Well, how else did I get here?Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-81753560291640122252009-03-26T21:03:00.003-05:002009-03-26T21:14:48.811-05:00Ta-Dah!Though I had not really planned on it, we ended up having a pretty romantic dinner. I already had my laptop downstairs, to look at the recipe while cooking, so after dinner was ready, we decided to use the laptop to listen to some music. Our light switch has a dimmer that we have never used before, but there is a first time for everything. Then, we ended up lighting a few candles and enjoying our dinner and some good, fun conversation, while drinking our Mountain Dew from fancy wine glasses. For some reason or another, this is the first time that we have actually sat down to eat dinner TOGETHER all week. We both really enjoyed being able to sit and unwind with each other over a new meal, which Josh actually took part in preparing with me. Don't worry, I actually took pics before the food was gone this time. </p><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmCijy3XzukKQh45inQulgceIC-y_CE-hY2QSrzYX3m8kB09b99ulUbYKvuYJQYEIqpMXQcSynGY8HeXbEVREu28Dz3daKLgjqElqidUzObaYd_JACzBPXGBN4JU1s8k354qA8ThTQv-M/s1600-h/lemon+olive+chicken+014.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317684761153925282" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmCijy3XzukKQh45inQulgceIC-y_CE-hY2QSrzYX3m8kB09b99ulUbYKvuYJQYEIqpMXQcSynGY8HeXbEVREu28Dz3daKLgjqElqidUzObaYd_JACzBPXGBN4JU1s8k354qA8ThTQv-M/s400/lemon+olive+chicken+014.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuKig0p1-F9IkRXdfN0vm94GNuZSQfGmBtbaB3KT0y0ZbqSaULBsPD4Y-EavD7o4jigS6vdagKehHcYfSxA8Y9elvd9VyEjtt_WA_8R1lf8LhKxqMIX2Pr40uKeg8VHqHVLiS7ZqAp4Z4/s1600-h/lemon+olive+chicken+012.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317684757353512082" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuKig0p1-F9IkRXdfN0vm94GNuZSQfGmBtbaB3KT0y0ZbqSaULBsPD4Y-EavD7o4jigS6vdagKehHcYfSxA8Y9elvd9VyEjtt_WA_8R1lf8LhKxqMIX2Pr40uKeg8VHqHVLiS7ZqAp4Z4/s400/lemon+olive+chicken+012.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNKcDz7eWA0jynbCUvQZ1zJtYytHNQwYvh0SGex2hqyQj-5R9pVV78rBROuC3JBDZkqRrGH60eIal_xKA0_0hi57hWvbOtZ3QpGqrajfoFilspO_YMmeKYc6HgqS7oTnZd0uKkCKXNkbU/s1600-h/lemon+olive+chicken+001.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317684753683590418" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNKcDz7eWA0jynbCUvQZ1zJtYytHNQwYvh0SGex2hqyQj-5R9pVV78rBROuC3JBDZkqRrGH60eIal_xKA0_0hi57hWvbOtZ3QpGqrajfoFilspO_YMmeKYc6HgqS7oTnZd0uKkCKXNkbU/s400/lemon+olive+chicken+001.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaffOjmcIicjXeaI4HGasz3t9l46O37YiZFl98s1F2YWfQz5YdecwvBdblynFkBI7FlSYaesYR6w3_bswaThDAaQO8-ILiuIvIJMBw-tkQ_u5Aj3EfbGhF8Dtr2XKDzDdJLg_HTOLe3X8/s1600-h/lemon+olive+chicken+002.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317684751328409074" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaffOjmcIicjXeaI4HGasz3t9l46O37YiZFl98s1F2YWfQz5YdecwvBdblynFkBI7FlSYaesYR6w3_bswaThDAaQO8-ILiuIvIJMBw-tkQ_u5Aj3EfbGhF8Dtr2XKDzDdJLg_HTOLe3X8/s400/lemon+olive+chicken+002.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgssXM22W8lWDL_0CN_AQgfI__j5djqFwGZ1NwdwP0Hb7RDO61BnmWV3PoviYFfqiekmarQQlz16ZnFfgIHznsBV5hTo2DIRgRIlvPdMZgRO4y2JiiQSMEhowu30eyIoKrPAWC7cxiNBbE/s1600-h/lemon+olive+chicken+003.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317684749221358178" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgssXM22W8lWDL_0CN_AQgfI__j5djqFwGZ1NwdwP0Hb7RDO61BnmWV3PoviYFfqiekmarQQlz16ZnFfgIHznsBV5hTo2DIRgRIlvPdMZgRO4y2JiiQSMEhowu30eyIoKrPAWC7cxiNBbE/s400/lemon+olive+chicken+003.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><p>I ended up making some fresh green beans and Uncle Ben's wild rice for some quick and easy sides to go along with our "Lemon Olive Chicken". The sides went well with the dish and overall we really enjoyed it. It's not something I will integrate into our weekly meal planning or anything, but it's something delicious to make for the occassional-want-something-different-dinner. I will be posting the recipe on my <a href="http://beignetswithtiffany.blogspot.com/">HERE</a> later on, so check back.</p></div></div></div></div>Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-24068307806595315432009-03-26T19:31:00.002-05:002009-03-26T19:36:21.937-05:00Dish or Dispose???I got a hold of a new chicken recipe. YES, you know me well. I just HAD to try it out. It's healthy and seemed a little fancy (well, different than what I usually cook), so I figured that I would cook it for dinner tonight. The ingredients weren't that expensive, though they aren't the types of things that I normally have on hand. As I am typing this, the chicken is on the stove. Josh and I are STARVING and impatiently waiting for it to be DONE! That's an understatement, but I can't think of a word more intense than starving. ??? Anyways, I will definitely be "reviewing" this recipe for you. So, check back with me to see if it's worth your time. In the meantime, I am going to make sure I'm not letting it burn. :)Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-27477151466580834972009-03-25T10:29:00.003-05:002009-03-25T10:31:29.211-05:00Hubs at work...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXa5BqAsfXH-qI116gVyreJa4t117jCW9L2EwcpFzvOB0pUEcMmydS49fllHWkRMeqzvCh8i0ECNq4k90OeofkDB3LyaaTlmQ6qh6qhmbqUEruEUJ2TBHt6IDhSB-tC2UKMnVh8I9CYKs/s1600-h/josh's+pics+for+work+211.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317148284352791458" style="WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXa5BqAsfXH-qI116gVyreJa4t117jCW9L2EwcpFzvOB0pUEcMmydS49fllHWkRMeqzvCh8i0ECNq4k90OeofkDB3LyaaTlmQ6qh6qhmbqUEruEUJ2TBHt6IDhSB-tC2UKMnVh8I9CYKs/s400/josh's+pics+for+work+211.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Too cute!

I usually go to bed with my husband and get up early with him. The last couple of nights, though, I have been going to bed before him (before 10pm) and waking up way late! I have no idea why I would be so tired! It just feels like I can't get enough sleep. Yesterday, I found myself feeling a little groggy all day. I went to work and could have easily fallen asleep on the couch. I really had to push through it! Do you ladies have any ideas as to why I could be so tired? What about some tips to help keep me awake??? I am supposed to leave for work in 1.5 hours and I just woke up around 9:30am. This is not like me at all! For now, I guess coffee will be my best friend!Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-81676668888324707072009-03-24T09:59:00.003-05:002009-03-24T10:02:53.650-05:00My projectI went to the thrift store after getting off work yesterday, in search of a little computer desk for my laptop and school stuff. I found one that was in decent enough condition that I actually like for only $7.99!!! It was that yucky looking wood. You know, the kind that looks really country! Well, I fixed that! I used this awesome primer called "bullseye", so that I didn't have to sand it or anything. Then I painted a few coats of black paint and VOILA! Now, all I have to do is get some new handles or spray-paint the ones I have and I will be all set and ready to bring it inside. All together, after it's all said and done, I have spent around $20 for a new desk. YEAH! I am so proud! :)<br />Btw, I will be posting pics laterJosh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-6027821014385991382009-03-21T23:31:00.004-05:002009-03-21T23:39:07.100-05:00Funnel Cakes and Ferris Wheels...I went to a little carnival in Trussville tonight. My mother-in-law and her sister came with me. I guess I could call her my aunt-in-law, but I don't think that term really exhists. Lol! They didn't ride any of the rides. Instead, they sat around with their Starbuck's and funnel cakes and talked. I guess that's what happens when you reach a certain birthday. Lol! I met some of my (younger) friends there and we rode a few fun rides, which I am still dizzy from. I feel a little queasy, but nothing like the time in Louisiana (Becky, do you remember that? ROFL! ) For the rest of you, that's a story for another time. I brought a funnel cake home for my very special husband. And let me tell you, he put down the X-box controller for that one. Lol! Well, I am now home and in bed. I have had quite an adventurous day and I am sooo ready to pass out! I ate chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast, went to the Botanical Gardens with my best friend, an exciting baby shower, and then to the carnival. I am sooo tired...I feel like I'm nearing one of those birthdays too. :)Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-20523910766441811902009-03-20T17:31:00.003-05:002009-03-20T17:45:00.346-05:00Hope...I went to a doctor yesterday that, FINALLY, didn't treat me like I was stupid! I have been having a lot of issues with my body for the last few years, don't know exactly what is wrong, just what symptoms I have...and that I haven't felt like myself in a loooonnnggg time! I was soooo impressed with this place. The receptionist was super nice, the nurse was a sweetheart, and the doctor was awesome too. She actually listened to what I had to say, without cutting me off, acted like she cared, and told me that we WOULD find a way to make me feel better. She put me on three different prescriptions to see if they will help me any and she took some blood to run some tests. I will be receiving a phone call if they find anything with the blood tests, otherwise, I have a follow-up appointment in 6 weeks. She said that if by then I am not improving, she will do some other tests and maybe try some different medicines. I am so glad that I finally found somebody that didn't just say tell me I was fine and send me on my way. This lady understands that what the other doctors have said was "normal" isn't necessarily normal for me. It's been about 3 years since I have had any kind of energy and I am only 22 years old! It was more than 6 months ago that my stomach didn't severely cramp up every day. I have gained over 50 pounds in the last 4 years, without changing my eating/exercising habits, except for the better. I don't eat fried foods (except for beignets like twice a year and french fries maybe twice a month), I don't eat too much food, I don't care much for sweets, and I love to drink water, and to eat fruits and veggies! And my jobs consist of chasing children around all day. Everyone that really knows me wonders why I have been the one to gain all this weight. Nobody knows...not yet. But, yesterday, I had a little glimmer of hope that we may soon find out. :) Those that have been praying for me, please continue to do so. And btw, I have my next pap coming up in June. I still don't know what's going to happen with all of that and to be honest with you, I'm a little scared!Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-12500402245495293882009-03-16T15:03:00.000-05:002009-03-16T15:03:45.063-05:00Finish the Sentences..."Finish the Sentences"<br /><br />1. I've come to realize that my last kiss....will be with Josh! And will always be special!<br /><br />2. I am listening to.....Josh yelling at the guys on Xbox live. Lol!<br /><br />3. I talk.....way tooooo much.<br /><br />4. I love....my husband, my family and friends, musicals, my house, my car, beignets and cafe au laits, cute clothes, LSU football, funky hair, shooting my gun, starbucks, anything pink, Louisiana, the orchestra, watermelon, people who are open minded and aren't afraid to try new things, go-karts, anything retro, fresh pineapple, paintballing, talking, giving out candy on Halloween, cute purses, seafood, girl's nights, flip-flops, tetherball, sarcasm, staring at wierd people, broadway, things that match, four-wheelers, crawfish boils, funnel cakes, vacations, "CSI", hosting parties, exploring new places, Valentine's Day, California, fancy looking drinks, my new balance tennis shoes, "House", roller coasters, good food, the circus, babies, a modern taste in decor, trying new things, baby showers, "Lie to Me", doing stuff like this, laughing, mowing the yard, lingerie parties, buttery popcorn, peanut butter brownies, carnivals, good music, bridal showers, birthdays, people that know how to cook/bake, singing, listening to Josh sing/play guitar, throwing a ball, concerts, anything outdoors, and the list goes on and on and on...<br /><br />5. My best friend......is the exact opposite of me in every way you can imagine! Seriously!<br /><br />6. My first real kiss....doesn't matter<br /><br />7. Love is....the most amazing thing! Love is not a feeling, it's an action, but it's full of all sorts of emotions.<br /><br />8. Marriage is...the best thing that's ever happened to me. Now that I'm married, I couldn't ever imagine being single! I love my husband and I love my life! I am sooo blessed and so grateful!<br /><br />9. Somewhere, someone is thinking....that they could win the lottery. Ha, good luck with that one, buddy! :)<br /><br />10. I always...keep secrets, pay my bills on time or early, talk too much in the middle of movies, pick something pink over any other color, ramble, forget stuff, stare at pregnant women, eat too much and exercise too little, forget stuff, make tons of lists, spend too much money at the grocery store, freak out in my head, when I'm on an elevator, put people on speakerphone, brush my hair when it's wet, forget stuff, wish I was pregnant, get irritable when I haven't eaten, say things about strangers right in front of them (Josh hates it!), forget stuff, wonder why I am sooo tired all the time, forget stuff, spend way too much time at Wal-mart, laugh at Josh's jokes...even when they are retarded, stay on the computer longer than I should, fantasize about faraway places, forget stuff (Have I mentioned that already? Lol!), ............<br /><br />11. The last time I really cried was...a few days ago in the shower. I had the worst cramps I've ever had in my life and they wouldn't go away. My WHOLE body was hurting!<br /><br />12. My cell phone....has a pink cover on it.<br /><br />13. When I wake up in the morning...I yell at Josh to turn off his alarm, after it's gone off 16 times! Lol!<br /><br />14. When I go to sleep...ummm...what else is there to say? I go to sleep....the end...<br /><br />15. Right now...my back is killing me, I should be running errands, I should be cleaning, I need to wash my face, I have coffee breath, my computer is REALLY hot, I am thinking a little too hard about this...<br /><br />16. Babies are...the most precious gift from God! I can't wait to have a few of my own!<br /><br />17. I get annoyed when...people are ignorant, close-minded, and have no common sense...and think they know everything!<br /><br />18. Today I...am cleaning. Well, not right now, but I should be!<br /><br />19. Tomorrow I...will enjoy another day off from work, but not from cleaning, running errands, cooking, etc.<br /><br />20. I really want to...learn how to play the piano, go ice skating sometime this week, plant some flowers, finish decorating our house, lose weight, get tan, have my house professionally cleaned, have kids,<br /><br />21. Someone that will most likely respond to this is...How am I supposed to know? I guess whoever wants to actually do it willJosh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-10380385204616186842009-03-16T10:54:00.002-05:002009-03-16T10:57:38.130-05:00I am so proud...I am sooo proud of myself!

I was in the kitchen, doing the dishes, and I had a pair of my husband's jogging pants on. My phone started ringing, so naturally, I started to walk toward the sound, trying to find my phone. I kinda kept going around in circles because the ring was really close, but I just could NOT find my cell phone! I am embarassed to say that it took me quite a while to realize that my cell phone was in the pocket of the pants that I had ON! LOL! Sometimes, I really worry about myself with stuff like this. I mean, seriously...Who can't find a phone that's ringing in their OWN pocket? I can't believe I actually told you guys this, but I am one for good humor...hope you enjoyed it!:)Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-58865893811848942182009-03-12T05:00:00.000-05:002009-03-12T07:21:16.220-05:00Taking life for granted...You know, sometimes we tend to take things in life for granted. There are so many people who do without, and I don't ever want to be the type of person that takes what I have, for granted. Read on...<br /><br />A blonde & a brunette were watching the 10 o'clock news together. The current news was about a man up on a ledge threatening to jump. The situation cut to a commercial.<br />Brunette: "I'll bet you $20 he's going to jump."<br />Blonde: "Okay."<br />(then back to the newscast.) He jumps.<br />Blonde: "Okay, here's my $20."<br />Brunette: "No, that was too easy, I can't take your money."<br />Blonde: "I insist. I lost!"<br />Brunette: "I have a confession to make. I saw the same thing on the 6 o'clock news & knew he jumped. So it wasn't really a fair bet."<br />Blonde: "I know I saw it too, I just can't believe he jumped again!"<br /><br />LOL! Yes, I know...I am WRONG for that, but I just couldn't help myself! I love blonde jokes! I can't believe I haven't posted any yet. Please don't think I am a horrible person! :) I have my blonde moments too!Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-40626536768876262792009-03-11T11:51:00.002-05:002009-03-11T11:56:07.624-05:00I may be killed for linking to this...I was doing my daily duty of reading up on all my favorite posts that I follow each day when I came across this..."<a href="http://confessionsfromanimplusiveaddict.blogspot.com/2009/03/flatulence-fib.html">Flatulence Fib"</a>. OMG! I was ROFL! This is just the funniest thing to me. My husband and I joke about stuff like this allll the time. I may be killed for posting this, but let me just tell you Ms. "Impulsive Addict", you posted about it first...so it's fair game! LOL!

I can't believe that I now have more than 20 followers. Soooo cool! I am da' bomb! Lol! When is the last time someone actually said "da' bomb"? Well, never mind that.<br /><br />Okay, so I feel totally like famous or something. I know that 21 people isn't a lot, but TO ME it sooo is! I have 21 people that care about us, what's going on in our lives, and about whatever it is that I have to ramble about next. I even have someone (won't mention any names) that will get up at "the wee hours of the night" just to check and make sure that I didn't post anything new. Wooo hooo! Go me! I LOVE to blog , as you know that I LOVE to talk. That's really all it is. It's just me talking...nonstop...everyday. If I'm not posting something, I'm reading and commenting on someone else's blog. How did I become sooo addicted to this? Wow! I mean, seriously, I'm at work right now...and look what I'm doing...Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041670233328372880.post-30450168884547981052009-03-09T18:26:00.004-05:002009-03-09T18:58:37.661-05:00??? Mystery of Man...Today has been a really good day. I got to relax a little, but also ran some errands, did some grocery shopping, cleaned up the house, and started to mow the grass. I say "started" because not long after my husband got home he took over the lawnmower. Then, he took over the seed thrower thingy. Then, he set up the sprinkler, did the edging, trimming, blowing, etc. I don't know what it is with guys that makes them have to take over with stuff like this. Maybe they can't stand to see a woman doing their "manly" job...probably because they think we won't do it as well as them. In this case, I think Josh just really <em>wanted</em> to do it. You see, this is only our second time to mow the yard at our new house and we've never had a yard to tend to before. Plus, we got that brand new lawnmower and other yard equipment that actually make it kinda fun. Call us crazy, but we actually <em>like </em>to care of our yard. We are especially excited about it right now since Spring is so near. We have the <em>biggest</em> yard in the neighborhood and now we want to have the <em>best</em> yard on the block. Back to the main point....<br /> Today really has been a good day. Nothing too fantastic happened, but it's just been all around good. Did I mention I actually went tanning today? Those of you that know me well will be proud. Those of you that don't...that's a story for another time.<br />We just had dinner not long ago. We had pork chops, rice a roni, and broccoli. Oh, and some AWESOME strawberries! Which, btw, are 3/$5 at Publix right now. Oh, and the cantaloupes are 2/$3 and the milk is 2/$5. I am always looking for good deals, so I thought I would help you out a little too. Okay, so seriously...I am TOTALLY rambling again! I can't really stay on topic...ever. It drives Josh crazy! I was joking with him and his dad the other day about that. It's funny how guys and girls are so different. We went out that day looking at guns in pawn shops and stuff. We went to a ton of different pawn shops and gun stores and even stopped for a long lunch. The whole mission of the day was to return Josh's gun that had messed up and to look for a good gun to replace it with. So, needless to say, that was the ONE topic of discussion allllll day! I swear guys have the biggest ONE-TRACK minds! The WHOLE day, I kid you not, that's alllll they talked about. What guns they liked, which ones they didn't, why they did or didn't like them...how much such-and-such gun costs at Billy Bob's compared to how much it costs at Billy Joe's...arguing about whether a .410 is the best option of a rifle, whether a Springfield is better than a Kimber....on and on and on. They talk <em>as much</em> as girls, but completely <em>stay on topic!</em> Knowing me, of course, I was sooo shocked! I mean seriously, how does someone do that? I didn't know it was possible. I mentioned to them how they are so different from girls. I told them that I would have talked about a million, different, random things by then, but they amazed me how they never steered clear of the "mission" for the day. Man, do I envy guys sometimes. If I could stay that focused, no telling what I could get done around the house, how good I would be at Math equations and remembering dates in history, etc. What's so funny, though, is the fact that these are the same creatures that <strong><span style="font-size:130%;">can't stay focused on <em>US</em> for more than 5 seconds without their minds wandering to TEN different things!</span> </strong>Hmmmm......The great mystery of man....Josh and Tiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12360139966715245924noreply@blogger.com5
