I'm Weak! I gave in for a new coffee maker.

A little back story =D. As many of you know Rick works 3 jobs (1 Full + 2 Part Time). He doesn't have many actual days off and when he's home and awake the kids are going to bed or just getting up ready to leave. Most of the daily routine falls on mom, which I have taken on and most days it's just life. Now of course I would love a day out with friends. I'm not a big go out to the club girl but just hanging with friends would be fun for me! Rick doesn't usually have weekends off and if he does I work Saturday AM and Saturday PM so both weekend nights are pretty much shot for me.

Now Rick doesn't go out often but he does get to hang with friends every once in a while along with he bounces at a bar so he gets the whole going out vibe. He's days off usually land during the week so he can go out with the guys. Which I don't hate but of course I little jealous and would love to go out too! Heck I would love to go on a date! So I was having a day the other night and he got to go out to a hockey game and out to play pool I was in a pissy mood and let him know it. Again NOT upset that he got to go out just pissy that I'm always in mommy mode and no me time.

So how to get me out of my pissy mood, yup you bribe me with coffee! And even better a coffee maker I asked for Christmas but didn't get do to getting the boys the dog. So YES I'm weak and sold out for a coffee maker ... lol. Not as good as going out but hey I do get some nice coffee for the AM =)!

I GAVE up never could win one and DARN if I couldn't get one to review so this paid all by us :).

Chocolate Cures All ... Right?

So Today started off great I was early leaving the house, dropped off the boys no hassle and then it happened. Got to Roy's school (yup in the driveway) when he says I need a sack lunch for today. Totally spaced on his field trip today. But hello you little turd you knew about this and you're old enough to remind, you know when we're at home so I can make you one! But no you being the disrespectful little turd what until I'm at your school! So turn around run to Walgreens since it's the closet grab a lunchable (I know this won't fill him up), a water and some chips. So I spend $5+ that I didn't have budgeted because he couldn't be nice and tell me when we were at home! I was fuming and don't think I didn't let him know that he is old enough to help me out and it's his responsibility to help me out. Just as a lovely side note Sunday around 8pm he gave me a slip of paper from school asking for recyclable items they needed Wednesday am! Yup he's been holding onto it for weeks! WTF? Then he passed me a paper for money for a teacher gift I let him know that is his responsibility if he would like to give money to it, that is why you parents gave you money not to spend on junk food like you do! He told me know it's my responsibility, sorry dude it's yours mine if food and board! UGH is it June yet?


So I get to work late and start the pile on my desk when I get a surprise from an engineer he brings me a Gene Juarez Bag! Happy Administrative Assistant day he says, I almost fall off my chair. I mean the bosses already gave me an amazing Gift Card for Costco, what is this. He's such a joker, check out the pictures below to see what I got!

The BIG bag!

What I found inside!
I died laughing, actually fell off my chair.
Hey FREE Chocolate is all good for me!
