final 3

haley should've gone home!!!! her attitude lately has been too sassy! you're not supposed to talk back to the judges!!!!!!!!!!!! blech!!!! you tried something risky & it didn't pay off...don't get mad at them cuz you made a mistake! i still love her voice, but her attitude leaves a bit to be desired. i think it's finally going to her head!! we'll see...i could be totally wrong! i'm sure i might get a little stressed if i had to sing in front of millions each week!!!! but, keep your cool haley...that's what makes you so cool!!! BUT, come on lauren!!!!!!!! love her!!!!!!!!!!!

happy mother's day

mother's day & amazing race finale...let's do this!

happy mother's day to the best mom & mimi in the world!!!!!!!

AND, the best mother-in-law & grams in the world!!!

you ladies mean the world to me!!!!

not too bad

thor...not too bad...to look at!!! :0) we really enjoyed thor. it is exactly how a super hero movie should be...fun, exciting, funny, adventurous...throw in a little romance & a cliff hanger & you've got yourself a fun movie for the family!!! give it a go...you'll enjoy it!

yes, please!

water for elephants...liked it much better than i thought. i don't care what he waters...water the plants, water the garden, water the CHRISTmas tree...water elephants. whatever...yes, please!

really important stuff

now...i really need to discuss some important stuff...let's talk tv!!! you know me...i'm usually up until 3am for all of my diabetic responsibilities, so, this is when i catch up on all my tv indulgences. where else do you think i get all of my useless pop culture trivia (why does that kind of information stay in my head, when i can hardly remember what i had for breakfast?).

i am just catching up on some of my shows since i was gone last week. i have not watched the last couple of survivors...so don't tell me what has happened. i'm also behind on chuck & top chef masters, so don't ruin my surprise.

i am, however, caught up on american idol, dancing with the stars, & amazing race. i'm so glad that the ones who have gone home recently are gone. i'm still not a big fan of jacob on american idol & i think it is his week to go...we'll see what tonight brings. it was definitely time for kendra to go on dancing with the stars...her attitude didn't keep me happy, but she came a long way & thankfully her attitude changed. but, my favorite cast off of the week...kent & vyxsin!!! he was such a cry baby!!!!!! it killed me how he chastised her for being negative. um...isnt that the pot calling the kettle black (i'm sorry...pink & black)? i'm sure the race brings out traits you're not happy with. i am, however, excited that this week is the finale. i've never seen them let 4 teams race for the finals...go gary & mallory or globetrotters!!!!

oh my word!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

just found out about bin laden...wow!!!! it's sad when you get your latest current events from facebook. i'm wrestling with 2 sides of myself...the side that screams "yippee!!" & my other side that weeps for his eternity (& it definitely is not what he had planned).

"God has no pleasure in the death of the wicked." (Pr 24:17;Ez 33:11)

the Lord doesn't give up on you & me & He most certainly doesn't give up on the lost!!!!

howdy howdy

well, i'm back!!! went to go see my baby brother for a few days. we haven't gotten to see each other since CHRISTmas & before that, it had been while we were making the plans for our oma's funeral. last time i was there, he was in the process of buying a house & now he's in it with a new roommate (jax...his yellow lab). the bachelors have a pretty good life going out there in austin...i'm so happy for him!!

woke up at 4:30am to make a 6:00am flight…ewwwww!!!! but, my babies are worth it!!! the girls had a recital @ 3:00pm & by golly, I wasn’t gonna miss it!!! they were BEAUTIFUL!!!!! i wish i knew how to put a video on here. but, trust me…there are pics to come. i know, i know…surprise surprise! :0)
