So, this week I’m doings thing a bit different in honor of Valentine’s Day. I’ll be doing a list of what I fell in love with this week, but in honor of my quirkiness I’ll also be doing a list of things I sarcastically fell in love with as well! I can’t get too mushy on you now can I? Here I go:
This week I fell in love with:
10. those last few french fries that you find at the bottom of the bag just when you think all the fries are gone. (they taste so good! That must be why they jumped ship!)
9. the fact that my husband knows I’m a spaz in the snow and turns my car around in driveway for me everyday. (I can only leave the house once a day or else I can’t get back out-LOL)
8. my ability to kiss the boo-boos away. (my lips have magical healing powers with the little ones)
7. Sal’s (the Salvation Army) for letting me buy 3 pairs of pants for $6.00. (I’m not going down without a fight- these are new fat pants!)
6. the half-time show my friend’s son performed for us. (he’s 18 months and such a happy, happy, joy, joy, baby! I just want to put him in my pocket!)
5. my youngest son’s confidence in himself. (I hope it lasts! He dresses as he wants, makes crazy things, and doesn’t ever stop talking. He loves himself so much- he’s my joy.)
4. my oldest son’s new found ability to tell me exactly how he’s feeling. (this is so great. he doesn’t cry, just shares with me or writes me notes. He’s so sweet!)
3. having a sleepover with my boys when their dad stays in the city. (I really do like it! I get to snuggle with them all night)
2. my friends. I just need to ask and they are there for me, always. ( I think I just realized that)
1. my husband all over again. ( we had another one of our moments when we both had the same thought at the same time-although I can’t remember it now-LOL)
Lots of love here. I’ve also experienced a different type of love this week I’d like to share with you. You might be able to relate to these as well.
I Love It When:
10. we have all this hands free technology and people still drive around holding their phones to their ears. (most of you people are driving big, huge, gas guzzling SUV’s. I’m sure you can afford a hands free set)
9. I’m behind a person at the cash register at Shop Rite and they stand there and don’t help bag their items. (seriously! You’re not buying Prada bag- help bag your stuff out of courtesy)
8. I pick up my computer from the shop and just paid another $40 and it only works for 2 days. (I need a MAC-I need something)
7. my husband leaves his phone in the truck and I can’t reach him all day. ( we could all be dead over here and he wouldn’t know)
6. I try to exercise and the kids get in my way. (as if I really want to be doing this)
5. a person driving an SUV with the name of a business on the side gives me the finger. (the town hadn’t done snow clean up yet, so there was only one lane-oh well- guess I won’t be hiring you)
4. I have to do laundry and my husband’s socks are all furled up in a ball and I have to unfurl them. (so gross!)
3. my microwave breaks and I have to heat everything up on or in the stove. (yeah)
2. my driveway is so narrow and icy that I can only open 1 car door at a time. (my husband doesn’t see this as a problem, hence I’m the one trying to get 2 kids in and out of the car. )
1. all my clothes are too tight and I look like a stuffed sausage in my pants. ( that would be why I’m buying fat pants at Sal’s)
Happy Valentine’s Weekend! The good, the bad, and the ugly- of course and the beautiful! Have fun!

Too funny! Really enjoyed both sets of 10 ๐ I love the fries at the bottom too…I feel like they have soaked up extra salt somehow! I also love when my girls can sleep in my bed when my hubby isn't around. Sooo cuddly.
I'm a new blogger so I was just checking out some blogs from the momblogs and saw yours. I like it!

Thanks for stopping by and following Frazzled Mama. I love the last fries in the bag. Those are my favorite as well. I'm following you back.

My microwave is broken. I try not to drive because it freaks me out.
I will not only NOT hire the person with the rude driving habits and the company name on the side of their vehicle, but I will call them and tell them that.
Come see me! I'm a new follower from the hop.
