Random Thoughts

My friend told me that my blogs topic hit her news.  At first I was all, "no way!"  "MY blog!?"  For real?  Then I remembered I posted on my daughter's blog.  So I wanted to know which station it was so I could find the clip.  Then asked her if they quoted me or named the blog.  Then she said, "No, they talked about the same topic as you."  They didn't mention me.  Oh well.  It was 5 seconds of almost fame.

I went to Wal-Mart today to buy: dishwasher soap, dryer sheets, pop and Melatonin. I spent $42.  How does that happen?  Maybe that is better left for a Monday post!  It must have been that candle I bought that put me over the top.

Leftovers are awesome.  They are great for lunch and even better for dinner when you really don't feel like cooking.  It's also financially responsible.  Yeah, blah blah whatever.

Kristin has a cold.  She has been sneezing like crazy all day.  Going through tissue.  Ick.  Snot rags everywhere.  Sorry kid.  I do hope you feel better!  It sucks being sick.

Candy is good.  I wish it wasn't.  I wish I didn't like it.

The news is awful.  Rapes.  Murders.  Robberies.  I want a feel good segment!  "Human Interest Story!"  Something.

Tomorrow is the first elimination on DWTS.  Did you vote?  We are hardcore here.  We used 5 phones plus the internet.  If you are with AT&T you can text
your vote.  That's cool.  If you are with AT&T.  Which I am not.

Come back tomorrow for my recap of DWTS!

My husband does not understand how I can go to the store for ONE thing and end up spending over $100. Toilet paper, crackers, ice cream--I think I just don't realize what I really need until I get there. :)

I gotten better at going to Walmart--I take a list and try to avoid the dangerous areas for me--books and movies and video games. And the clothes too--I hate Walmart clothes--they shrink, but some of them are so cute.

Sorry to hear your brush with fame was not to be. Perhaps your five seconds will be extended next year when you are chosen as a contestant for DWTS.

I'm afraid to vote - I'm afraid that if I vote I will fall into the abyss of DWTS obsession like my mother.

I've made fun of her for 11 seasons and I can't swallow my pride enough to admit that I'm watching it and to discuss it with her.

I blame it on The Bachelor - I got sucked into that on Monday nights and now there isn't anything else on...what else am I supposed to do??

I LOVE LEFTOVERS!! :) (which you probably already figured lol) so many people around are getting sick lately! i wonder if its because of the change in weather. Try a few drops of oregano oil in your glass of water, I've heard it builds your immune system more than Vitamin C! (I don't understand how thats possible, maybe it has vitamin C in it or something)

I am so ready for your recap!! :)

You're famous in these circles. What more do you need? LOL! I'm sorry your girl is sick, but it may be allergies. It's that time of the year.

You're cracking me up with your voting! I vote for American Idol but only at the end. I'm too tired by the time these shows end to do a thing.

I haven't voted for ever for those shoes. I don't know why - don't want to waste my minutes I guess. We're cell phones only here.

And 5 seconds of almost fame is better that 0 seconds of no fame. You're famous to all of your followers - that makes you sound like a cult leader or something!

I am loving LOVING DWTS this season so far! I'll be with your posts all the way.
I was SO amazed at Kirstie Alley on the first show - I cannot get over that she is 60 already.
I like Hines Ward and of course Ralph. Good season!
Wendy is going - She is proof that all black people cannot dance!

I loathe Wally World only because I do over spend EVERY time I go. Leftovers I save them why??? so they can take up space in my frig....unless it's a fave like my home made lasagna all the rest ends up in the dog dish....could Kristin be suffering from Spring fever allergies ??? and I am sorry for my somewhat misleading text messages I was STILL very excited that your "post topic" was mentioned on our local news!! I have a bad way of wording things like ex I say "your blog" when actuality I should of said what you "posted" about made our news...anyhoo I was still impressed!

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
