Say what?

First off, my boys are amazing, sweet, polite and GOOD! I am so proud of who they are and I'm looking forward to seeing the men they will be one day. Having said that.... My boys are very different from each other. My 14 year old was diagnosed pervasive developmentally delayed with autistic tendencies. And my 13 year old has a slight learning disability but is basically just a normal kid who doesn't like math. My 13 year old talk all the time, he's very social and is giving me a headache! I try to be the person who listens and engages in what they say but 2 hours of constant talking and him acting like everything I say is wrong wore me thin real quick. I kept my cool and redirected him to something else while explaining that he may feel right but I AM right. My 14 year old put his headphones on and shut his bedroom door. 

I got some freebies today! I'm sure the USPS, ups and fedex people think I'm crazy and spending tons of money. I assure you my dear husband would cut me off if I ever actually had to pay for this stuff.lol 

I got salt and pepper grinders, gloves, shampoo, knee compresses, 12 tea lights and I'm expecting more stuff tomorrow. I think between all that stuff I spent $3. Nice, huh!! 

I also put another application in. This one for the dollar general. I already have a job at the local chickenE but I need to stay busy while my husband is out of state working. I'm trying to pay off everything I can but there's not much I can do with 20 hours a week at minimum wage. 

I'm re-reading one of favorites today! G.A. Aiken "how to drive a dragon crazy" I don't know what number in the series that one is but I love how insane iseabl make her dear uncle. 

That's my day... 

Cheap stuff makes me happy.

Yesterday I found another review site!!! Yay!!! I love getting free and cheap stuff! So I'm now a member of amzreviewtrader.com , reviewkick.com and walmarts invite only sparkreviewer program. I've already been approved on the reviewkick site for a couple things and I'm excited to see where it goes. I usually, because of my budget, stick to free and under a dollar items So I've got a plenty of vitamins! I need to branch out from that. So here's what I recieved in the mail today. 

Crazy looking! Lol! But neat and warm! My boys thought it was weird but they both modeled it for me and were digging it. 

First post ever!!!

So basically, as the title of this blog says, I'm a fat lady that likes to read romance and I'm going to document some life here. 

Hi! My name is Amanda, I'm happily in love and married to Jeremy and together we made 2 of the most precious beings God ever put on earth Jacob and devin. We also have a spoiled rotten cocker spaniel named Cash. I like to read romance....I like carbs but try to eat low carb...I like to pretend to be crafty.....I do have a job....and I like to review things. 

So here's my life! The ups, downs, and sideways of it.
