My favorite time of the week... choosing MY song.

This week is...... MORRISSEY - Suedehead!

I am ALWAYS singing this song. And the video is pretty awesome because it shows things of/about James Dean, who is one of my favorite actors (RIP).

Farm Fresh 06/29

Yesterday was my hubby's birthday so I didn't get a chance to post my shopping trip since we were celebrating.  It was nice of him to want to take me to Farm Fresh and he was able to choose a small cake that he wanted and a bag of salad.... I didn't have coupon for those, so what I paid out of pocket wasn't too low, but then again it wasn't too bad either.

What's YOUR song?



My song this week is The Clash - London Calling! During our little road trip to Atlanta last week, hubby and I blasted The Clash in the car and sang along at the top of our lungs! Soo fun, gosh I love my hubby!!



Home sweet home!

I am finally home from a little vacation to Atlanta, GA with the hubby.  It was a long week, and I am very glad to be home. 

I was able to coupon down there, but I didn't get much at all.  I gave my father in law some toothpaste that I had gotten for free woohoo.  Anyways, not much to say but I plan to get this blog up and running soon...

It's Thursday again...

You know what that means... it's time to link up 'What's your song.' My song of the week is Los Gatos Locos 'Hunting Humans.'  I have an obsession with zombies.

If I had a chance to be in a zombie movie, I'd do it in a heart beat!

You most likely have not heard of the song before or the band.... or these kind of music. So enjoy hearing something different! This is PSYCHOBILLY.
