I didn't post yesterday.  It wasn't because I ran out of steam, or had nothing good to say.  In fact, yesterday I could have played along with Emmy and KMama in their meme for Proud Mommy Moments!  But I was in the middle of a medical mess.  I still kind of am.  So today, instead of the usual Friday Confessional with Mamarazzi , I am going to drop an F-Bomb.  This was something Mimi over at Living in France used to do.  Whether she does it or not still does not matter.  She is hilarious and you should visit her(along with all the other fabulous ladies I have mentioned!)  And now onto my rant explanation. Wednesday, we went to a local lake.  A lake we can not swim in.  It's drinking water so they don't want bodies polluting the water.  But boats are okay.  Yum.  Anyfumes...they have a water park.  I don't mean slides and pools and things.  I mean all kinds of sprinklers and fun fountains and waterfalls.  It was a lot of fun, and I would certainly take them

  I am participating in the weekly meme hosted by Mamarazzi and Alicia aka Queso.   This week the questions are provided by Queso.  And they are some juicy ones.  Are you ready? 1.  Who would call if you had to get bailed out of jail?  Well, I would hope it would never come to that!  But I would probably call my SIL since she has money and would help me hide the body hire a good attorney for me.   2.  If you were a SuperHero what would your name be?  Probably indecisive girl or something like that.  Right?  My family would say Super Mom.  But since I already hold that title there is no fun in taking it.    3.  What do you think is one of your best qualities?  Not taking sides.  It could be because I don't like to rock the boat--which I do not, but I want to know both sides before making any judgments.  I once declared "Switzerland" but instead it came out "Sweedish"  Oh well.  You get it, right?   4.  What song would you pick to be your own personal theme s

Where did July go?  It came and went in a flash for me.  And now it's time to start thinking about school starting??  Before I do that though, I am going to link up with my BFF Emmy and name ten things that made me smile this month! Living in a free country! Spending a week with my oldest and dearest friend... Going to the beach Sure I got totally pummeled by the waves but it was an awesome day Learning a new trick with Paint shop Pro....being able to turn this picture.. into this.... Knott's Berry Farm Discovering new places to play and keep cool... Sharing Knott's, The Beach, and new places with Busi* (Boo-shee) and Grandpa! Playing games with family and friends Getting to see Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows Part 2.  HOLY COW!  And I am sad now.  It's all over.  Guess I need to have a marathon.  ;) And number ten has yet to happen....we are waiting on the arrival of my (grand) nephew.  He is due TODAY!!!  My niece is more than ready to have him. 

Ryan looks petrified I know, but he came off saying it was AWESOME! Here are a few friendly do's and don't's for when you go to Knott's Berry Farm.  But really it can be applied to any amusement park.    Do bring sunscreen do bring chapstick, blistex or some form of lip protection do bring water...more than you think you will need. do bring snacks healthy and junkie do bring jackets even in the summer do bring a second pair of shoes--your feet will thank you do bring a change of clothes for the little ones and even the not so little ones do bring a brush and spare ponytail holders bring hats bring a wagon or money to rent one--better to bring one do make a plan for rides, eating and shows do communicate use your cell phones Do bring your required meds and anything you think might need for things like...headaches.   And now for the don'ts....
