Wordless Wednesday

Check out more WW's here

Venice - I know, it's late

We almost didn't make it. We had to leave the house at 4:15am to catch a 7am plane. Well, Dumbass (aka - ME!) set the alarm, but forgot to turn it on. So at 4:20 by some miracle Patrick wakes us up and we jump out of bed to pack the car. 15 minutes later we were on the road. Let me just say, that was the fastest I've E-V-E-R gotten ready in my lifetime. Anyway, We had such a great time! Three nights in Venice.... the weather was sunny and warm. I don't think I've ever walked (or sweated) so much in my life. We rode a gondola (even after thoughtful consideration- it was expensive!!!) and loved it! Went to the Rialto market and browsed all the goodies vendors were selling. I loved the architecture and swarms of people. The food was, let's say, different, but I always cleaned my plate. Mr. "Picky" had a tough time though. LOL All in all it was a fab 1st anniversay. So I guess each year we'll have to top this one..... need to start playing the lottery, and QUICK! HEHE

Hot Pants

So I've decided to try out the "Hot Pants" DVD workout. It's a dance work out and is lots of fun. I actually did the entire 45 minutes of it last night. So today I can barely walk and my entire body is in pain. Im going to try it again today to loosen my body up so I can WALK IN VENICE. LOL That would really suck if I was hurting on our vacation. Anyway- I'll give updates on how this dvd works. I've heard nothing but good things about it. Cross your fingers!!

Bridges of Madison County

Ok- I just watched this movie for the 2nd time. I knew it had its sad parts, but I watched it anyway! So I just had a really good cry. Can someone explain to me why us women do this to ourselves? LOL

Isn't he Lovely

I received my first random gift yesterday from Patrick. I can't believe he remembered I wanted this perfume! awww bless him. He just racked up loads of brownie points!
