This award was given to me by The Drama Mama over at The Scoop on Poop. Go and check out her place.  Thank you Drama Mama! Muah!

Anyway, along with accepting the award, and following the rules (first was to thank the person who passed it to you) comes the revelation of 7 facts I'm not really sure you really should know about me, but here goes....

1.  I can pick things up with my toes.
2.  Drama Mama mentioned her first celebrity crush...Ralph Macchio...he was not my first, but he definitely adorned my walls!!  My first was Scott Baio.  *sigh*
3.  I don't like confrontation.
4.  Which is weird because growing up I would not be crossed.  I bit.  Oh yes I did.
5.  I brandished a knife at Rich when we were dating.
6.  It was just a joke.  
7.  I am actually pretty easy going...as long as I get my way.  ;)
Next is to pass this lovely award onto my fellow bloggers.  I hate this part.  It is sooo dang hard.  I want to cop out and say everyone gets one.  But I  know that is not how it is done...so here goes...in no particular order...


Christina Lee at Write-Brained
Rachel Sue at Trapped Between a Scream and a Hug
Holly at 504 Main
Emmy at EmmyMom--One Day at a Time

Mayra at In Lovely Heels

Then leave a comment with each person you passed the award to.  I think all of you lovelies are extremely funny and versatile.  Have a great day.

Congrats on your award!!! I'm so sorry he's having bad dreams! They say those dream catchers really work, we have a couple. You might want to get some white sage too and do some smudging (just to wipe out anything thats there) we have it and smudge sometimes, it definetly smells nice too!

Oh, Lourie. How do we count the many reasons why we love you?

Congrats, Cali girl!

I loved Scott Baio too and then Rick Springfield came long...

Hope the bad dreams go away. I had a friend who had her daughter draw a picture of the bad dream. Then she yelled at it really loud and told it she was in charge and it wasn't allowed to come back. It worked!

Congrats on the award!

oooh La La!!! Thank you!

I hope Ryan stops having bad dreams. It is so hard for kids that age to understand what is going on. (As a vivid sleeper myself, I frequently wake up from intense night terrors)

I miss Lost too! I'm naming my baby Jack- really after my Grandpa- but I kind of had Jack Shepard in mind when choosing the name. He's so hot.

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

Image
That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters. Why do they give such ch
