OOOOOO the Woes of life

Well here the hubby and I are again....down to 1 vehicle. It is kind of funny (or maybe not) My kids and I used to say that we had the Clutts curse when it came to vehicles. Clutts is my kids last name and used to be mine. It never fails we always have vehicle problems. My poor new hubby is suffering my Clutts curse that even though I changed my name to his I think the curse has stayed with me. Last week our GMC Jimmy would not start so my hubby's cousin came over and changed our fuel filter and amazingly it did the trick...ahhh (or so we thought)....Yesterday I had to drive about an hour to take my son back to his dad (he lives with him). Before we left town our car told us we had tire pressure issues. Hubby pulled over checked all tires and they looked fine. We made it to our destination and got out of the car and we all hear ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss....Yep flat tire...ugh and we were in a somewhat small town on a Sunday evening...Nothing open to get tire fixed. So we put on the donut and drive back home 1 hour away. Well to make a long story short we got tire fixed only for the hubby to come out 1 hour and half later and it be flat again and this morning the GMC is out of commision again... So 1 fuel pump and one brand new tire and we will be back in business.... OOOOOOO the Woes of life (at least when your an older car owner)

Oh my goodness.....We actually need a season

Wow.....Yesterday we were tempted to turn on our AC it was 96 degrees....Today....Yep the heat is on. I just wish our crazy mother nature would stop playing with us. Spring or Winter....I really dont care which one just give us one or the other so my sweet cold that I have developed will just go away.

Scentsy Fragrances - Flutter, April Scent of the Month

Sunday, April 3, 2011



Had a wonderful weekend with my Hubby and my Son....We took my son to Kobe's steak house for the first time. My son loved the entertainment from the cook but he was less than impressed with the food. My poor kiddos have not been introduced to authentic food



We also went shopping for me some nursing scrubs for work. No I am not a nurse but I work in an eye doctors office and we all have to wear scrubs. We all try to match our scrubs but since I just started I just get plain ones to match all their pretty ones.


We started at Gordmans as someone told me they had cheap ones...I am cheap but did not find any. However the boys found stuff for them...Lucky dogs..lol

All I got was an owie from an easter decoration I was looking at. It dropped on my foot. I did however break it so I put it back on the shelf and walked away quietly....OOOOPS


The day was not a total loss however....We found a uniform store at the mall and I got my scrubs....I am set now


I had to take my boy back to his dad today. That is always so sad for me.

Hope everyone else had a great weekend and thanks for stopping by my blog.

How a Scentsy Burner works

The Scentsy system is easy to use, fits into any décor and permeates any room with wonderful and unique fragrances – without the danger of a flame. You'll never have to worry about remembering to blow out the flame again! A low watt light bulb melts a highly fragranced Scentsy flameless candle bar slowly and safely, maximizing fragrance time. With no flame, soot or wick, it is a safe way to enjoy more than 80 yummy Scentsy scents. Whether you choose a Scentsy Plug-In Warmer to fit into a small space, or a Deluxe Scentsy Warmer to accent any room in your home, a Scentsy system makes perfect sense!
