Okay, I really wrestled with whether or not I would even do this, but I have been asked and told how excited you are to read my "famous" recaps.  All 3 of you.  Haha.  So, I am gathering all my strength and I am going to go for it.  That will be $500 please.  Hey, I want that new iPhone!  *ahem* This new season promises to be an exciting and downright nail-biting! Why?  Because this season they brought back past champions and runners-up!  Now, why didn't they bring Donny & Marie on!  What a smack down that would have been!!! But alas, they did not. Joey Fatone and Kym Johnson  Joey Fatone danced in Season 4 and was one away from the Mirror Ball trophy.  During practice, Kym kicked him in the face.  Ouch!  Despite that little accident...or was it...?  They wowed the crowd and me!  He came off the dance floor huffing and puffing.  "I can't breathe!" He yelled. Len started by explaining that judg...

I am linking up with my bestie, Emmy  for Ten Things to Smile About.  Why?  Because it is cool.  And it's also a great way to look back and see the good things! 1.  My birthday!!!  And got to see my bestie!  Hey...I don't have the most recent picture....hmmm...I will use....this one.... 2.  Our church had a Variety Show, and for the first time, my Little Middle put herself out there!!!  She and Kristin did the "Evolution of Dance"  and it was awesome!!! 3.  Sometimes a nice cool fountain drink is all it takes. 4.  Babysitting this little cutie--but don't be fooled--he's a stinker and he knows it. 5.  Chocolate...because sometimes it is just a necessity of life as we know it! 6.  Going to the high school football game and only staying for one quarter because the score was already 49-0.  Oh yeah we kicked butt.   7.  Putting a tattoo on my little baby nephew!  O...

I am not interested in political flaming.  I am not interested in who is voting for whom.  That is a personal choice.  It is what makes this country great.  Not only do we get to choose our leaders, but we as women, also get to be a part of that!  And still less than a hundred years for that!  And wow did our sisters, fight hard for that. What I am interested in, is the amount of badgering I am seeing.  It is downright middle school.  How in the world are we supposed to teach our children about cyber bullying and its affects when the adults are just as guilty of it?  I can not tell you how many horrible comments I have seen in the cyber worold directed at the candidates.  Would these people dare say that right to their face?  Maybe a select few would be dumb enough.  And then they would be quickly wrestled to the ground and have a foot on their neck. I understand that this is a free country, and we do have freedom of speech...

I hate it when they are sick!  I will see you all next week.

As I attended the third and last Back to School Night, I was brought back to my own younger years.  Perhaps it was the curriculum being described.  How I wished it was laid out for me that way when I was I was in school.  It would have made learning so much easier, and far more interesting.  So a thought started forming in my head.... What I miss about being a kid... I miss Hide and Seek and other fun games.  Of course when I was a kid, the games were always outside, and endless.  We played til the streetlight came on.  Red light, Green light.  Freeze tag.  Stick ball.  You name it.  Yep, I miss being not only being able to  play those games but to not have any regrets later.  My body would scream at me now. I miss writing letters and doing my work (yeah I actually did some!) in the grass outside.  If I did that now, it would be really hard to get back up.  Plus I am allergic to grass.   ...

SQUIRREL!!! That's right!  I am back with all kinds of random.  Let's start with politics.  All I have to say is this: I seriously want this feature.  I am getting so freaking sick and tired of all the nonsense people are posting on FB.  I have been scrolling past unless it is a true update.  But if it is  a typical:  your guy is a douche kind of thing I am moving on but wishing I had a DISLIKE or HIDE feature!!  It's worse than the mudslinging that the candidates throw out.  Sheesh. Kristin is learning sign language this year, so I have found a couple of websites and I am trying to learn with her.  She has a real knack for it.  She can finger spell really fast.  Not me.  I am like,  what???  It's worse than regular spelling.  Which by the way, I totally suck at. Dancing with the Stars!  It's coming next week.  It's a super star season as this one will be filled with forme...

What do you do when you are faced with, I don't know what to write about anymore?  Have I run out of things to say?  Am I boring?  Have I lost my mojo?  Is it writer's block?  Do I really I want to do this anymore?  Am I giving it up!?  Oh heck to the no! I think part of my problem is I can't land on any one subject I'd like to start with.  I know, it's my blog.  I can do what I want.  What I want to do kind of go back to my regular routine of asking crazy and thought provoking questions on Mondays.  I miss that!  Don't you???  I also miss.... Don't you just love him?  And all that is random?  Me too.  I miss reading all my friends blogs.  I need that back in my routine.  I just have to find a place for it.  I still have stuff to say!  And instead of it getting lost in my mind, I am putting it where it belongs!  Right here in the blog-i-verse! Wow!  It's good to be back...
