Two awesome link-ups hosted by two fabulous dollfaces.

My song this week is by the incredibly sexy talented Blake Shelton. 

Yummy.

I've been super sick and in and out of doctors offfices and ER's this week but this song just kept making my heart smile. It seriously makes me want to go to the lake or have a bbq. Summertime song for sure.

This week's Thursday Five are things that have been, are, or were

Great

Incredible

Inspired

Rewarding

Swell

 

This week, our new landlords have finally been sending people over to replace rotted wood and trim on the outside of our house and its starting to look Great

Mr. Superman has had to work all week even after sitting with me at the hospital or doctor's all day and not getting any sleep. He is seriously Incredible

 

I've been craving some soft, chewy, delicious snickerdoodles for weeks now. We finally made them and I believe whoever thought these gems up was seriously  Inspired

 

Even when I don't feel like it, once I finally force myself to work on projects like painting the office or putting laundry away, the satisfaction is  Rewarding

 

 The fact that Mr. Superman just got home and doesn't have to go to work again until Monday night is beyond Swell

Thursday Five

Its been a long time since I've linked up. 

Head on over to Nicole's page to become a part of the Thursday Five fun!

This week's words are

Happy
Jubilant

Grateful

Loved

Thankful

This week I have begun working out after a long 6 months of being told I couldn't. I still didn't get the go ahead but I'm doing it anyway. The idea of the flabbyfatty coming off soon makes me Happy.

Mr. Superman called me earlier this week and it was a total shock and surprise. Immediately I was so giddy and happy and definitely Jubilant.

In the wake of everything I have had going on and happening in the last year, I have lost the remainder of 'friends' I thought I had including the once raved about Brighteyes (Bestie). Despite my sadness and frustration over this, I have realized many things and met an absolutely fabulous person who is seriously the best thing since sliced bread. Decorating, designing, thrifting, cutting and coloring hair, gorgeous, she does it all. Not to mention she has four kids I get to cuddle and love on on a near daily basis.  Having her as a friend, a good one at that, makes me Grateful.

Talking to my mama and thinking about her forcing me to meet her for lunch on my BDAY on Saturday makes me feel very, very Loved.

Waking up with strep I knew was bound to hit me sucked HARD but realizing I already had the antibiotics and therefore skipped out of a doctor's visit made me Thankful.
 

Fabulous Thursday Five!!

Its time for Thursday Five! Think about some positives from this glorious week, list five of them, then head back to Mrs. Gambizzle's page to link that sucker up!

1) I have the most incredible husband in the world. I seriously think God created him and sent him down to Earth just for me.

3) My house is slowly but surely being pieced back together. 

4) Mr. Superman is going to be working some crazy 12 hour, middle of the night shifts for the month of August (off and on for a few different exercises) and yet, he doesn't complain. Its his job and he does it well. He is incredible.

5) We got paid a day early. Ahhh yeaaaah! 

Brand New Fabulous Thursday Five!

Say hello to the brand new version of Thursday Five! When Mannland 5 announced that she would no longer be hosting Thursday Five it I was so sad!

3) I am done with my CNA course. I got an A and now just have to get all my paperwork in, wait for my letter telling me when and where my state boards are, then pass those.

4) Even though Mr. Superman's TDY got extended I will be having one of my SIL's coming to stay for 8 days and my best friend Brighteyes comes in the day my SIL leaves. How exciting!!

The rules are simple: Wanna play? All you have to do is post 5 things that have made you

Jubilant

Giddy

Excited

Thankful

Stoked

Basically... just post 5 things that have made you happy then head back to MannLand5 to get your link on!

1) Today was my final for my CNA course and I got a 97% without studying!  (I studied 5/24 chapters on Monday) SUH-WEET!

2) Mr. Superman's 14 hour shifts should be over by Sunday at the latest. That is sweet music to my ears ya'll.

3) One of Mr. Superman's best friends from high school who was a groomsman at our wedding and also happens to be the roommate who dubbed me "The Mean Girl" for the first year of knowing me, got engaged! We got a phone call at midnight on Tuesday (I don't remember it at all) and when we finally got in touch later, he told us the good news. We are so happy and excited for him. PLUS, this means a trip home to Arizona in September!!!!

4) Tomorrow is Friday! Normally this would mean 2 days with Mr. Superman but since we still have the Phase 2 exercise war games goin' on, this means I have two days to get caught up with everyone's blogs! I am soooo behind and I've missed you lovelies!

5) Now that I am done with my CNA class (nearly) and finished with clinicals, I can finally start painting my fingernails again! Boy have I missed it!

Happy Thursday sweeties!

Fabulous Thursday Five!!

It's that time again. Thursday Five over at MannLand 5. It always seems that by this time in the week, I am in dire need of Thursday Five. It helps me think about all the good. You should come join in.

5 things that have made me..

Joyful

Excited

Grateful

Appreciative

Elated

or just plain

Happy

this week..

1) I have recently started recording Oprah. I am currently watching Tuesday's episode. You know, the one with all the Harpo Hook-ups and it has made me so happy. Seeing Will-I-Am saving those two families homes, and Justin Timberlake golfing with that chick, and right now Mr. Fine-As-All-Get-Out Usher singing. MMM yummy. 

2) Three very simple words. Tomorrow.Is.Friday. 

3) Mr. Superman. This is kind of a given but after this week, my gratitude and love and amazement at how incredible he is has been increased ten fold. He puts up with so much.  I am just in awe of him. I have also heard of 6 more cases of infidelity inside this military world, of people I personally know. It always makes me so sick and sad and just boggles my mind. Knowing that Mr. Superman and I are going to be a family for eternity just makes me so incredibly happy and thankful.

4) Music. I love my music. I love driving and listening to my music. My music depends on my mood. Today was a Shins, Simon & Garfunkel, Decemberists, Sia, Joshua Radin, Frou Frou kind of day. It doesn't make the world go away or fix the stress or problems I may have going on, but it does help me get out of myself and see things in a new light. I think one of our greatest blessings as humans, is music. I think it is one of God's greatest gifts to us. 

5. All of you! You are all such incredibly inspiring women and I feel such a connection with all of you. Your crazy amount of support and concern is overwhelming. The way you all love and the way you all live, makes me want to be a better person. 

Fabulous Thursday Five!!

I am a total sucker for these games. I found this one over at Flip Flops & Combat Boots and she found it at Mannland 5 which is where you can go if you want to come join the fun :) Its really simple. You just need to share five things that have made you 

Happy

Giddy

Grateful

Joyful

Gleeful

or all of the above

Then just head back to Mannland to link up and share your five. Easy right? I am doing it because I've had a rough day so far. Just feeling off and my emotions are getting the best of me. Hopefully doing this will make me happy. Here are my five.

1. Every morning when I have school, Mr. Superman wakes us up and while he's getting all uniformed up and I'm getting dressed, he takes the time to go get me some aleve, toast me a strawberry poptart, and a glass of milk. It always makes me happy and I am so grateful for the little things. 

2. I am getting super giddy that its almost time for me to get dressed, head to base, and pick up my man! I'm needing a hug today and I am really excited to see his face in an hour and a half. 

3.  I am grateful that I can work out for free on base and so happy Mr. Superman has kept me going and been really supportive. Thinking about getting healthier and losing weight makes me gleeful.

4. Thinking about it being Earth Day today makes me so grateful that I live in such a beautiful place and that God trusted me enough to put me here. Seeing all of the green, the gorgeous flowers, and the pretty blue sky makes me Happy, Giddy, Gleeful, and, Joyful. 

5. Since it is Thursday, it's the beginning of my weekend. It means the Mr. only has one more day of work and then we get 2 entire days together. Being with him and seeing him makes me giddy like a school girl. He still gives me butterflies and that makes me happy.
