Rollin' with the big Devill Dogs

Its official, my husband is in recruiting school now. He is doing SO well; He's getting A's on all his test and presenting his speeches with ease. I cant tell you how proud I am of him! On Thursday he found out where is RS/RSS is (Recruiting station/recruiting substation).

We got.... drum roll please....

Vancouver, Washington!!! We are so excited! All Zack's aunts, uncles and cousins are in that area, so we will be very close to them. Zack wanted Fairbanks, Alaska because that's where is family just moved to; Don't tell anyone but I was hoping that we didn't get AK. I love Alaska but Fairbanks..... it is WAY too cold for me, it not only gets 0* but it gets to like -20* or below and I'm not equipped for all that nonsense!

We started looking up houses for rent but we cant call around or really do any in depth, incase next week he gets switched to another station. He was told that after next Friday they will know for sure!

In other news; My brother in-law Jack will be staying with us for a while. He will get here late evening on the 12th, and stay with us for our move to WA. From there, Jack will enlist to the Air Force and will continue to stay with us till he ships out! Zack's cousin Savannah will also be moving in with us, along with her Doberman pinscher named Lucian. We are very excited to have family living with us and expanding our in house family :D

We will be moving in the middle of September which is only a little more than a month away. I am super nervous because I know how stressful this is going to be, but I also know that Zack wont be deployed for another 3 years, so that makes it all worth it.

We are having movers that the Marine Corp provides for us (TMO) so they will pack up everything for us, deliver it to where ever we are moving to and they put it in a storage unit for us until we have a place to live. The only thing we would have to pack up is the items we will need for the drive up and a for a few weeks incase we cant find a house. We will pack it all in my tiny little Hyundai with 3 adults and 2 animals, not too hard... right?

No matter what, I am ready for this next adventure and I know that everything will go smoothly... it has too! Oh man I crack myself up!!!

Wish us luck

Love you all,

50 Random Facts About Moi

   I am trying to get more in touch with other bloggers out there and to get my blog out there as well. So I felt that I should do a "50 random facts" so my viewers and potential networkers can get an idea of who I am. So, here I go...

1. Hate my knee caps being touched while my leg is extended. Don't know why it just freaks me out or when people can wiggle their knee caps ::shiver::
2. Don't like being talked to before my coffee. I feel as if I cant function or be my happy self with out a cup of warm sugar-y coffee
3. Get grouchy when I'm hungry. Really only towards my husband or family, not sure why but I do. when I get mad at my husband he always says go get a snack and then we will talk haha
4. Don't like fast food, only Taco bell and Wendy's.  Since I'm going Gluten free I cant go to either one :/
5. Cant fall asleep without the sound of a fan or the feel of one blowing on me. I have to either have a ceiling fan on and a plug in fan or a ceiling fan on and the fan app on my phone going.
6. Favorite You Tubers consist of Jenna Marbles, Nat, and Shaytards!
7. Wear flip flops everywhere... even in the snow in Alaska. Guess you can call me a true FL girl
8. "When I know stuff, I say stuff" Kinda my catch phrase. I used to play trivia every Wednesdays at Applebee's  with my brother, sister in-law and some friends back in the day and most of the questions I didn't know the answer to, but when I actually said an answer without hesitation they knew to listen!
9. NYC is my favorite city. I wouldn't want to live anywhere close to it but I love love love visiting it!
10. Don't like when people tell me to "calm down". I very rarely get passionate about something or know enough about a subject to actually go in depth with it. When I do, let me go on because Lord knows when you know something you can go on for days. don't get me wrong I do know a lot of stuff and im smart I just don't like to open my mouth and debate about it quite often.
11. Love roller coasters... seriously, like, LOVE them! I cant go to a theme park and not ride every single ride one after another after another without any breaks.
12. Princess Bride and Labyrinth are my all time favorite movies. My family and I can quote both movies.
13. Lost my last tooth in the 8th grade, I liked to baby my teeth and never really pulled them out when they were loose
14. Favorite color is pink! My husband makes fun of me and says that Aqua and sea foam green are my "secret favorite colors" because I am drawn to them as well.
15. Don't like alcohol. Don't really like to be around it, or smell it. I don't like the way people act while drinking it, I could spend my whole life avoiding it and be perfectly fine. I actually don't mind going out to clubs or a bar with friends but I cant sit by the bar for long or stand to close to someone who is drinking if I can smell it. I used to do the whole "hey, I'm 21 lets drink" but that got boring extremely fast and now I cant stand it. Luckily my husband is on the same page with me and he isn't a drinker either, but every once in a while he will have Disaronno and coke at a party or something but that doesn't reek of the smell.
16. Love Tow Mater. I have  a plush toy of him on the top of my dashboard as my mascot :)
17. Had a job the weekend after I turned 14. I was a bag girl at Publix supermarket. Worked my way up to cashier, front desk, back office, pharmacy, deli, then to bakery where I fell in love with cake decorating.
18. To snowball after the last one; I have had many jobs since I quit Publix after 5 years. I've worked at Payless as a Asst. manager, waitress at Buffalo Wild Wings and a local restaurant, front desk at Quality Inn, a counselor at a year round camp in the Four Seasons of Palm beach. Same job as the counselor I also did face painting, juggling, air brush tattoos, helped out with their petting zoo full of tons of weird, creepy, cute and cuddly animals. I also participated at many dance parties and black light parties for after school programs with a WONDERFUL crew named Glass Productions or visit their website here! Amazing people!!! I also worked at subway and was a manager at the one in NJ, a floral and gift shop, a health food and coffee shop, a babysitter, a cake decorator at Food Lion  and as a promoter at a radio station in FL
19. And to snow ball after that one as well; I knew from kindergarten I wanted to be in broadcasting. I did the morning announcements from elementary till 8th grade. In high school I took journalism and photography and helped out friends who were in the announcements as a guest speaker a few times. After I graduated from high school I went to Connecticut School of Broadcasting (which was actually in FL) I graduated and from there worked (interned) at 97.9 WRMF of Palm Beach for about 6 months. I quit due to, they had "my" job as a paid position open up and they still wanted me to do it for free and not apply. They were wonderful people and I got to do a lot of amazing things, but I wanted to get paid, so we didn't see eye to eye :/
20. Harvest moon and Sims are my games!!!! Love 'em
21. Don't like Chocolate, fish or Nutella.... yea I said it!
22. Very outgoing growing up, had tons of friends. As I grew up I got very shy and now only have a few good friends; I find it difficult to make friends because of my shyness. Once you get to know me I open up and im crazy but you have to really get to know me.
23. My height: 5 foot 2... yea... I'm short
24. While working at Glass productions I helped for a month as a farm hand. I had to feed and water all their animals, including the chickens. Now, I like chickens, I grew up with several in my back yard but not anything like "Diablo". I was feeding the chickens one day and I got attacked.... yes attacked, by a rooster. Not my proudest moment but it happened... and I cried, like a baby, to my manager and told him that I was never going in the chicken pen again... I was 19 years old :/
25. 1st concert I ever went to was in the 5th grade and it was a Spice Girls concert
26. I am a night Owl. I can stay up super late, but I cant wake up earlier than 10 am without being a grouch.
27. Hate hate hate casseroles! Nothing about them is appealing. Whose bright idea was it to take a good meal like meat, cheese, noodles and sauce and combine them all together in a nasty mix of nastiness and eat it? No thank you
28. Never seen... are you ready? Harry potter (except the 1st and last one), Star Wars, Star Trek, Godfather, Sopranos, Lord of the Rings, Indiana Jones (except that alien one because Shia LaBeouf was in it), Dr. Who, or Scarface. I know im not American but it happens :P
29. Hate doing the dishes. Something about old watered down food makes me want to puke. I will take toilets any day, which is kind of ironic if you think about it...
30. I sing everything I do, no matter if people are around or not... I have to make a song about it.
31. I talk to my animals about 90% of the time that im home. There could be people over or even my husband and I still talk to them. ::ashamed:: :)
32. Love Taylor Swift. I dont care what she does or who she dates/fake dates or what ever. I love her! The 1st time I heard "Tim McGraw" I knew she was going to be big! I went to her concert before she was well known and it was the best concert (besides Rascal Flatts, NO ONE is better than Rascal Faltts in concert)
33. Cant deny a good chick flick, especially anything by Nicholas sparks... he's my favorite and I don't care how cliché it is.
34. I never go a day without laughing. Laughter is the best medicine! They say that laughter is good for you and is a good ab workout.. well I should have a 10 pack by now! :)
35. Love dinner. My favorite time of day. as soon as I wake up, after my cup or two of coffee I'm already wondering what to have for dinner. I could go hungry all day but don't mess with my dinner
36. I like to try every food at least once, so when I say I don't like a type of food, I've actually tried it, probably many times and I just don't like it.
37. I sing LOUD in the car, and usually dance too
38. 74 is my favorite number. I have no idea why or how I got that number but it is!
39. Lacrosse is the only sport I will watch on tv. I only watch the super bowl if its at some ones house for a super bowl party, and I only do it for the commercials. I also played lacrosse for 3 years in high school
40. I randomly break out in a British accent, not sure why, but it started when I was obsessed with the Spice Girls and I watched Spice world religiously!  My dad would yell at me because it came to a point when I only talked in the accent so they sat me down and gave me an intervention. Yet, even till this day it comes out!
41. Never finish my whole sandwich. For some odd reason I always leave the last bite, even with a hamburger. Maybe its because its the soggy part..? I don't know.
42. Always in my pj's. When I lived in FL I even went out in jammie pants... I would live in them if only it was socially acceptable. I only get changed into normal clothes if I leave the house, and as soon as I come home I go straight upstairs and put them back on.
43. When I take a shower I have to listen to music
44. Never had braces
45. Have 7 dimples on my face. 3 on my left cheek, 2 on my right, and one on each side of the upper part of my cheeks (below my eyes) if I laugh really hard
46. Don't like swimming in public pools. I don't mind water parks, even though that's probably more gross. When I was younger I swam in the public pool at my fathers apartments and I put on goggles, went underwater and looked up and saw boogers floating everywhere... from then on I refuse to go in them. Luckily, my mom bought us a underground pool growing up so I never had to witness that again
47. Last year I went to the audition to be in a extra of Iron man 2. I didn't get a call back but I did meet two girls that were extras in the Hunger Games as one of the capitol people.
48. Growing up I watched Harriet the Spy... a lot. So much so, that I thought I was a spy. My friend and I went around her neighborhood and took pictures of "suspicious" activity and their license plates, so when we caught them, the police could find the getaway car when they tried to run away. Yup, I was a winner back then :D
49. I have 5 siblings but only grew up with 3 of them; The other 2 are my fathers kids. The youngest I saw often growing up but now I have no contact with her, and the oldest I never really saw but now we stay in contact a lot. While I lived in NJ for 5 months, I visited her 3 times and I am now a part of my little niece and nephews life :)
50. Last one... The past few years I have grown closer and closer to God. Growing up, yeah we went to church on Sundays and I loved God but I wasn't close to Him. Now since I've been on my own, I feel closer to Him. I need Him more and more; especially since my husband deploys a lot and I have been diagnosed with a few serious medical issues. I feel as if I was put through these difficult trials so I could grow closer to God and I thank Him everyday for that! I am much happier with Him in my life, and I feel more at ease in knowing that everything I go through, I just need to put it in His hands and He will take care of me. Now I have hardly any stress and no regrets.

If you want to know anything else about me I have a link on the side, at the top with the title "About me" just click on it and you can know a few more things :)

I hope you have enjoyed and now you know a few more things about me and my "corks" :)

P.S My husband just informed that I need to tell you that I have an obsession with Swiffer ( I have every swiffer that was ever made), that I have to eat popcorn almost every night, and I love kitchen appliances... that is all :D


Love you all,
