What's Your Song? and Giveaway!!

So most of you have been stopping by for

THIS AWESOME GIVEAWAY

That I posted the other day :)

 Go check that out and win an Air Force or Army dog

 from Trooppaws!

 It has a place on the front of the dog for a picture of your spouse

 that I think is PERFECT for kids!

 Plus it is made out of uniform fabric

 and I just think that's really cool.

 I am also excited to share a super cool song with you.

Most people know Adele,

 but not many people have heard this particular song,

 but I love it!

Great beat,

 great words,

 jazzy,

 gotta love it!

 I have also begun the Pinterest craze.

 How the heck have I lived this long

 and somehow missed this wonderful time-wasting goodness??????

My husband will probably think I died.

Oh well.

 Follow me HERE.

 You'd be the first.

 And there's gotta be something awesome about being FIRST, right?

 After all, if you're not first, 

 you're last.

 Or so they say.

 Whoever "they" are.

 That's enough rambling for tonight :)

 Go join in the giveaway entering!!

Linkies and More News!

Well, I'm finally home at my computer

 on a Thursday

 to link up with 

 Goodnight Moon

for the What's Your Song? Link-up!

 I keep hearing songs on the radio these days

 and thinking,

 "Oh man, I should link that one up this week!"

 and then of course,

 inevitably forget lol

 But this week, I remembered!

 This is a new band

 I have told you guys about a little bit

 called The Dirty Guv'nahs,

 and BE and I are IN LOVE with them!!

 BE and I love dancing in the house to this song:

Also, I encourage you all to go to their facebook page

 HERE

and download the WHOLE new album for FREE!!!

 Listen to the song "Courage".

 BE and I have decided that this song will be played at our funerals.

 It's absolute beauty.

 And I cry every time I hear it.

I'm a little frustrated,

 because the company that told me they would do a giveaway for me

 asked me to simply tell them the dates it will run

 so they can advertise it.

 Well I sent them an email a while ago,

 and not a single soul has gotten back to me via email or facebook.

 And that kind of ticks me off.

 Because I don't want to run this,

 and then not have the winner ever get their prize.

 So if they ever get back to me,

 I will run the giveaway.

 But in fairness to readers,

 I don't want to do it unless I know the company will deliver,

 and right now they're not seeming like I can trust them to do that.

 On a good note, though,

 there was totally a huge rainbow this morning

 and I could see BOTH ENDS from my driveway!

 It must have been God's way of saying,

 "Go get 'em, girl!!"

 Because after only 30 minutes in my interview this morning,

 I was offered a job!!

 And one with the opportunity to cross train to different areas :)

 I am so blessed!!

 WOOHOO!!

Ohhh Stand By Me

I am amazed at how great my husband has been lately,

 mostly because I'm a certified basket-case.

 Emotional wreck, definitely.

 Crazy? Getting there.

 TTC sucks.

 Plain and simple.

 Especially when it seems like every time you pray for babies,

 ten of your friends get them.

 but not you.

 Which is pretty much the story of my life.

 BE probably thinks I'm nuts

 because I drive myself crazy with it unintentionally.

 But I stare at the calendar.

 And bare my soul on this blog lol.

 And he just hugs me every month

 when he comes home from class 

 and I'm sitting there on the bathroom floor

 crying

 because the Tampax Pearl wrapper is still there,

 sitting in the wastebasket,

 the angering proof of another failed month of trying.

 Just sits there, and hugs me, for as long as I cry.

 He's so amazing.

 So here is another one of our favorite songs to dance to,

 and one that I find special these days,

 as I need him to stand by me more and more

 as I get crazier and crazier with this whole process.

 and continue to bear my soul on a blog.

Thursday Link-Up

Welcome back for the What's YOUR Song? Link-up

 hosted by Goodnight Moon

This week my song is from a band that my husband recently introduced me to

 called the Dirty Guv'nahs

 If you like the Kings of Leon, you will love these guys.

 Also, a cool sidenote,

 If you do like the song, then hit up their facebook page

 or find them

 HERE

 to upload their ENTIRE new album for FREE.

 And who doesn't love free??

 Anyway, I LOVE this song, and even though it doesn't have a cool video 

 I decided I would share it anyway :)

I think it has a great message!

 Also, I'm getting really nervous,

 because coming up on Monday

 I go back to the hospital to get more blood drawn

 This time it's progesterone levels to see if I'm even ovulating.

 Scary, because if I'm not,

 that means we're facing a whole new host of problems.

 And I can't fathom dealing with that.

 The doctor even looked at me at my last appointment and said,

 "Hmm. I don't get it. You're young and healthy, your husband is young and healthy...

 This should be working for you." 

 Yeah. I know.

 I'm crossing my fingers SO HARD that when I get to my next appointment on the 17th

 something miraculous might have happened.

 I feel like I pray about it all the time.

 Even since my Wal-Mart epiphany where I decided I didn't want to go as extreme as plotting my basal body temperature on charts that looked like NASA took ten years designing them

 or denying my husband if our schedule wasn't conforming to "every other day" precisely

 or buying ten different kinds of ovulation predictor kits

 or all this other stuff.

 Yes I want a baby,

 but I also don't want my husband and I's love life to be so structured neither of us enjoys it anymore.

 So we'll see.

 Please keep your fingers crossed and prayers going for us this month

 We want this so bad.

It Must Be Thursday!

So it's Thursday,

 Which always means a link-up!

  

 So,

 It's time to link up with Goodnight Moon

For the What's Your Song? Link-Up!

So this week, my song

is one of my favorite workout songs!!

 And since I have been 

 AWESOME

 and am training for a 5K this past week,

 I thought I'd share one piece of my motivation team. 

And who doesn't need a good 80's throwback every now and then?

Get it?

 "Hurts so good?"

 For working out?

 yeah. :)
