Happy Friday, my friends!Even Better, Happy First Day of October!! Here in the Midwest, leaves are changing, the sun is shining, pumpkins are ripe, bonfires are burning, apples are begging to be picked, chili to be made, cozy sweaters to be worn, cuddles to be given to spread the warmth! Oh, how I love fall! So I am pretty excited. First of all , it’s Friday..you know what that means, I get to see the Big Guy for dinner tonight! Ladies, if you get to see your husband every night for dinner..don’t take it for granted. You don’t truly understand what a big deal it is until you don’t have it anymore. I’m also pretty excited for several other reasons. But mostly because I get to cuddle the Big Guy and my girls!Life is beautiful, even if it is just for now.
I always love this picture, it reminds me of a 60’s album cover! |

Next, exciting part of news, today I am one of the Friendly Friday Featured Bloggers! I’m so excited! Please stop over and show them some love!

ple. It makes my head hurt, it frustrates me repeating myself, is a general waste of my time and energy. then they usually try to use words that they don’t know how to use correctly and it makes me insane!
- Fawk You to having a night away from the girls, with just the Big Guy and not getting to fully *utilize* the hotel room to its potential.
- FAWK you to that last birthday shot of Tequila that I should not have had!Boo on getting older and not handling the liquor like I did in my 20’s!
- SUPER DUPER FAWK YOU in the EAR to the mysterious black eye that I woke up with from my love/ hate relationship I had with the toilet the night of my birthday!
- Fawk you to my little girls growing up too fast!
- Fawk you to the mean girl from ballet class.
- Fawk you to never getting enough sleep! Lord, I need a nap!
- Fawk You to the Big Guy getting sick and being homesick in the same day..poor guy!
- Fawk you to my 5 inch hooker heels who tried to mutiny on me while out in Chicago for the first time in YEARS! Oh yeah, you thought a little hyperextended foot action was going to stop me? Tequila shut you up didn’t it?
- Oh yeah, FAWK YOU to my back who is so obviously in cahoots with my hooker heels! Shame on you back! Pain pills and Muscle relaxers shut you up, didn’t they?
- Disclaimer* There was no mixing of pills and booze. Scouts honor! Luckily said ailments did not happen simultaneously:)
- Big GIANT FAWK YOU to myself for still not finishing my piece that I am writing for an actual paying writing job! Today’s the day it gets sent in. Wish me Luck!!!!!
- And one last but not least, FAWK YOU to Mother Nature…you bitch , how is it that you know every time I am in the same zip code with my MIL ? Without fail, if she is in town or I am at her house…I will surely start to hemorrhage. I think if we actually lived in the same area code all the time, I would literally bleed out! Damn You Mother nature, go annoy someone else!I’ve gotta wedding to go to this weekend!

Hello!
I'm a new follower from Friendly Friday Follow. I would love it if you could stop by my blog as well! I hope you have a great Friday!

Ok. I've never read your blog before and I'm sitting here cracking up. I love this idea of Fawk You Friday. I might have to do it one time. I know I'll have a long ass list.
Also, my husband is home for dinner 3 nights out of the week. THAT IS IT. I feel your pain. I also have 2 girls so dealing with the homework and the girl fights and DINNER alone is enough to make me drink EVERY SINGLE NIGHT. Hence, my WinoBecks name.
Tequila? ugh don't get me started. We have a love/hate relationship. Love it going down. Hate it coming back up.
I feel your pain; never seeing your husband. My husband is a police officer and works 3-11; while I work 7-5. We don't see each other and it's very hard.

I'm so jealous that you get EVERY friday night w/hubs. I don't even get one a month. No family close enough to help w/our 4 blessings-too expensive. Treasure that time-it's important.
I agree- fall is wonderful! I'm following you from the blog hop- I'd appreciate a follow back. Thanx

I totally agree, that pic is rad!
So freakin' cool that y'all are STILL pen pals for that many years!
Stoppin' by from Mama M's. Happy Friday!
I hate talking to stupid people, too. It's kind of like talking to teenagers. In fact, one has just asked me the same thing three times. Arrrgggg!
Your answer to #4??? My experience with my MIL. 🙂
