Ten Things Dec. 2013

I forgot! But then I remembered. So did I actually forget?? In keeping with my blogging one time a week, here is this week's blog. I am linking up with my bestie Emmy and here Ten Things to Smile About..





Emmy Mom




Before I begin, I just have to say how grateful I am that my mom and I share a regular email of what makes us smile each day otherwise I'd be lost.  I smiled a lot in Decemeber, but what to choose from....

I had some awesome homework assignments...which included but were not limited to:  writing about the acting skills of Tom Hiddleston, his character Loki, the movie Thor, and the movie Field of Dreams.  I'd call that a good class!  


There is just something terrific and hilarious about this GIF.  I use it frequently in texts and emails.  So did this make me smile in December ?  (A bonus to the ten...yes it did!)

1.  Our church Christmas program was great.  The kids did awesome.  And the face that the doll (for the baby Jesus) fall through the manger making half the room stifle laughter(the front half who could SEE what happened)was not funny...not at all.  


2.  Seeing Santa....

3.  Twice...

4.  A gift from my hair dresser to me...

5.  I love watching my favorite Christmas movies:  It's A Woonderful Life, A Christmas Carol/Scrooge (the one with Alastair Sim) and of A Christmas Story!

6.  Going to lunch with my mom and I may or may not have taken off my shoes.  

7.  I went to a meeting at one of the schools about Common Core...(no this did not make me smile at all) but talking to a friend via FB and cracking some jokes made it much easier to stomach their sales pitch.  

8.  Ryan was in his first parade.  He did a great job waving and smiling to the crowd!


9.   A friend tagged with this pic, and I couldn't resist...I bought it.  (Thanks Mom[-in-law]) I should have it any day now!  LOL

10.  Last but not least....Christmas....


What made you smile in December?

Yea! Great list. That shirt is too funny and so perfect for you. That is cool Ryan was in a parade. Eric and I watched cheesy ABC Family Christmas movies all month it was fun. Sad it is all over.

Poor baby Jesus ;)

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
