Ten Things: January 2012





It's the end of the month and I am linking up with my BFF EmmyMom and her Ten Things to Smile about!  

1.  Getting together with my BFF!  We got together at the very end of Dec.  And then one week later(first week of January!) We got together again! Sweet!
2.  School starting up again.

3.  Emily made Honor Roll.  A very huge deal.

4.  Kristin also made honor roll.  Also a big deal.  

5.  Although there are no letter grades for little ones, Ryan continues to excel academically.

6.  Despite getting a flat tire thanks to a spark plug...we had money in the bank to take care of things.  Definitely something to smile about (and be thankful for.)

7.  Going out with my family.  We had not done it in a very long time and it was loads of fun.

8.  Watching the kids play with the display computers.  They liked Apple the best.

9.  Getting to see my (grand) nephew.  Just look at those THUNDER THIGHS!

10.  The weather.  It has not been frightful.  It has been A*MAY*ZING!

What made you smile this month?

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
