Ten Things To Smile About




Well January is over and it is time to reflect on the month and see what had me smiling.  Then I head over to Emmy's and link up.  If you haven't read her blog before you need to.  So when you are done here go and pay her a visit.

New Year's Eve fun with family

Pet Rock Stand

Getting a manicure from my daughter
Playing with the different settings on my camera
Letting my daughters take pictures with the camera and seeing a whole new perspective
Letting my sister practice her talent with my camera.  And getting a sweet shot like this in return!

Getting clothes that fit!  (sorry no pics of that, but it is on my list!)
 
Kristin made honor roll!
Getting a haircut long before I normally would.

Having a years worth of equity in our home!!
 
What are you smiling about?

Lovely list! Okay that one picture I recognize a toy car, but what is that pink "leg" I see? A chair leg? A deer hoof in a pink leotard? I'm stumped.

That's how it starts. We let our boy take pictures with our camera a couple times and now we had to buy him a camera and he is way into it.

Cool photos. Your nails look lovely.

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

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...
