It feels like hump day
Mr. Spaghettibender hasn't heard back from the University on whether or not he got in for this fall. He is starting to get really worried but I am trying to calm him down and reassure him that if he doesn't get in this semester he can start next semester.
I tell ya I am very happy to be an only child. I get very annoyed at the idea that a sibling would decide on who can and can't come to my house for a get together. I have no idea why he doesn't tell his brother off. I want to do it on several occasions. We wanted to have a rather small get together at our house and the next thing you know his brother is telling him to invite so and so ... who's home is it!?! Of coarse Mr. Spaghettibender is polite and won't tell his brother off like I will. So hopefully everything will work out otherwise god knows what will happen with a little alcohol in me = )

Happy 1st Anniversary!!!
It has been 1 year! We made it. People always asked why after many, many, many years we decided to get married. I would have been married earlier if it was up to me - but it wasn't it was up to Mr. Spaghettibender. Since he is a procrastinator he waited and waited and waited until I pretty much told him it was getting ridiculous. So he finally proposed. Yeah!
We had already finished school, got jobs, lived together and bought a house - we couldn't really postpone it much longer unless we wanted to have kids before we got married. Nope he is Italian we are lucky to have gotten a way with living together. So now here we sit at our year anniversary with both of us in our early 30's wondering when do we have kids. Kinda a difficult question with Mr. Spaghettibender unemployeed and preparing to go to University in the fall. he is hoping to get an undergrad degree in arts done in 2 years (going right through summer of course) and then do a teaching degree. So as we sat eating way to much food at dinner last night we decided. No matter what happens with him and school we are going to start trying this time next year.
I can't believe we made a major life decision over baby back ribs. Kinda funny get it 'baby' back ribs. Know lets just hope that mother nature is kind to us and we don't have trouble consievign. I have been off the pill for about 4 months and things are just starting to get normal again. I guess it is a good thing we are giving ourselves time to adjust. I will now start obsessing about the things I need to know before having a little spaghetti bender of my own.
At least I can say that our one year of marriage has actually brought us closer. I think for once Mr. Spaghettibender gets it. He realizes I love him and am willing to make many sacrafices of my own for him to be happy. That seems to have in turn caused him to be much more understanding about me and my ... 'needyness' I believe he calls it.
Right now I am a very happy wife and I love my husband - that is all that matter. God, I'm sappy = )

live free or die hard
AWESOME and Amazing. I am still loving it.
It has been a long time since I liked a movie this much. So Die hard like. It didn't have as much profanity as the usually Die Hard's but he still did his trademark line.
It was a perfect amount of cheese and unrealistic special effects - I love, love, loved it...

Busy little bee
I feel so busy lately but also kinda bored. We have been doing home reno and now we are helping out others with home reno. I get kinda annoyed by people that want to do their own updating but don't look into anything. They just expect you to come over and show them everything ... or more like do everything for them.
My new brother-in-law is very much like that. He can't even stain a fence by himself. He has to convince everyone to come over to help him. I know that he always provides food and drinks but he takes away from our only time off because he is too lazy to do it himself. Plus he never has the right tools or products. I mean it will take some time to stain a fence but if you have a sprayer it will go a lot faster. If you also calculate how much fence you have - both sides- then you will know how much stain to get and not have to run out in the middle because you only bought one can.
He is kinda a pain in my side with his laziness. They have a brand new single family home and he wants to finish the basement. So he calls up Mr. Spaghettibender and tells him that it will only cost him a couple of hundred dollars. Come on. Do what are you thinking. So hubby gets him (while on the phone) to measure the amount of space he needs to add insulation, vapour barrier and drywall. Then hubby tells him approx. what a bag of insulation cost and what it covers and the same with drywall. He still doesn't understand how to do the calculations so hubs does it for him. In the end he is shocked by the cost. What the hell did you think. Take some time and do some research instead of playing video games - how old are we!
= ) done
This weekend is Canada Day and I really just wanted to relax with one couple maybe two but that isn't going to happen. We are going to a BBQ/ pool party. I have to admit my body is no longer in the greatest shape. I really have to watch my calorie intake and exercise more. I thought biking home from work would do it but it isn't. I am not heavy on calories but lately there have been bags of chips and pop consumed. Some time that is all that is consumed but still I really need to crack a whip on this ass. Today won't be any better. I am currently eating a store bought apple and oatmeal muffin the size of a small kids pool and a coffee which is 'sugarly delicious'. Then at lunch it will be a slice of DQ treatzz pizza ... a cheap version of a DQ cake.
Oh I need to get back on the horse soon. How much is liposuction?

So Sad
Yesterday we took a drive up to visit my Aunt who has been put in to palliative care due to cancer. She is too weak to fight it off with Chemo so they have stopped all treatments. They actually asked her if she wanted to be resuscitated? Why ask that - give her a questionnaire maybe but don't tell the woman "hey there's nothing else we can do for you and by the way do you want us to resuscitate you if you code?" Crazy people.
I had seen her since she stopped Chemo but Mr. Spaghettibender and I needed to visit my uncle as well. So off we went for our road trip. When we arrived at the quaint little hospital was uncle of draped over the side of the hospital bed shaking his head. My heart sunk! He then motioned for us to come in. Normally you have to put on a mask but he said no. In we went with me holding my breathe. She looked awful. She didn't look like she was with us. My uncle proceeded to tell me she had a seizure and hasn't come out of it yet. They never said coma but that is what it looked like. My uncle was rubbing her hand telling her to wake up and see who is here to visit her. He keep saying "Come on wake up now" in this soft caring voice. I lost it and left the room.
After composing myself I went back in the room and asked my uncle how long she had been like this. He said the hospital called him at 11am to get him to come up because she hadn't woken up yet. So we watched my uncle try and wake my aunt up. He then asked me to talk to her and try and wake her up. So I did. I rubbed her hand and told her who I was and that I had brought her some donuts so she had to open her eyes and sit up to get one... I am not kidding but you then heard her take a deep breathe. We were shocked. Again I started to cry. Then she slowly moved a bit. Some time passed and then she licked her lips. Some more time passed and then she moved her hands to her face. Eventually when my uncle asked for the millionth time is she was going to wake up she said "leave me alone". The man was beaming from ear to ear. She was waking up. It took a little bit longer and eventually she was awake and wanting a donut. = )
I have to say after that I was very tired.
I can only hope that Mr. Spaghettibender loves me that much.

sleepy ... so sleepy!
I couldn't take it last night. Mr. Spaghettibender was up working on his letter of intent to go with his university application and all I could hear was the stupid computer mouse clicking and then him scribbling. I swear to god I almost when in and unplugged the computer. So finally at 12am I said - enough, turn off the computer.
So he then get ready for bed and hops in with his cold feet. That was fine but his twitching was driving me crazy. I took a blanket and went out to sleep on the couch. It is now 1am and the alarm is set for 5:30 ... great!
My eyes are so scratchy, I have no ambition to work. I was hoping to go outside at lunch with my mat and take a nap at the park but it looks like rain. Hum, not such a great day unlike yesterday.
I biked home, mowed the front and some of the back lawn - until I ran out of gas. Then I washed the stones for our fireplace hearth. Then I got everything together to marinate the salmon. Then I checked my email and facebook = ) Then I decided to go outside and put a coat of paint on the window frames. All of this done by 7pm. Wow, so much accomplished. I really don't think I am going to come close to that today. Mew!

Go Sens Go ... oh no...
Although I don't watch hockey that much - I really only care about the fights. I have some weird obsession with hockey fights... they get me very excited. Why - I don't know. So last night I actually started to think the Sens were losing because I was watching. So I stopped watch... then they scored. I start watching again... the ducks score... I stop watching... you get the drift. But once overtime hit I went to bed. So you can't blame the Ducks win on me watching cause I was sleeping. = )
I have so much too do and I don't want to do any of it. I am so lazy. The bridal shower and hence 25 strangers are heading over to my house is less than two weeks. I have tons of stuff to do between now and then. The three main ones are the tiling of the front foyer, replacing the stones on the fireplace hearth and staining the deck. If this rain doesn't stop soon I have no idea when I will have time to sand the deck so I can stain it. Ahhhh!!!! I still have so much to do that stuff is just the tip of the iceberg!
Maybe instead of blogging I should make a detailed list... sounds like a plan!
