Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day to all my followers. My poor blog is feeling neglected at the moment. Seems like there is never anything going on that I feel the need to blog about.
Having a wonderful day. I got a huge card from my hubby, and he cooked a special dinner for me last night. Nothing like the little things to make you feel loved, am I right?? Other events that should be documented,? My sister moved in a week ago. After yesterday she now has a bedroom. I have come to the conclusion we have entirely too much junk. I guess those are the highlights from here for now. I'm sure there is something I'm leaving out, if I am I will add it later.

25th anniversary of the Challenger disaster - Yahoo! News

25th anniversary of the Challenger disaster - Yahoo! News


Today my thoughts and prayers are with the families of the astronauts who were on the Challenger. I was almost 6 years old when this tragedy struck. I remember seeing it on TV because our teacher thought it would be a good learning experience.

Happy New Year

So today is New Year's Eve. I plan on spending the evening with 2 of my most favorite people in the world. My husband and my son. My wonderful husband will be home from work around 8 p.m.. Little man will be in bed sometime around 10 p.m. At 3 I just don't think he's ready to ring in the New Year quite yet.
Happy New Year to all my friends and family that follow my blog.
Those of you who are going out tonight PLEASE be careful.

Amazing

More than 40 years after the incident, the state of Florida is talking about a posthumous pardon for Jim Morrison. Morrison, was convicted of indecent exposure, and sentenced to 6 months in jail according to this article. The incident happened March 1, 1969. Morrison died of a heart attack in Paris at the age of 27. Yesterday would have been his 67th birthday.

Had they had their ducks in a row they could have posthumously pardoned him on his birthday.

My 100th Post

I was hoping for something exciting to write about for my 100th post.

I got what I asked for, just not what I meant.

While out and about today I almost took out a 4 point buck in my car. Something told me to glance over my shoulder and check on Chase. Had I not I would have hit it head on, as it was I managed to miss it. Great news right???
About an hour later my husband asked me to go pick up lunch for him. No big deal right? That's what I thought as well. On my way back to the car lot from getting lunch, I was involved in a 3 car pileup. Luckily I managed to keep it from becoming a 5 car pileup.
A truck broke down in the middle of the road, and there was a lady stopped behind it. I slowed to a stop to try and merge with traffic in the other lane. The lady behind me, also stopped. The lady behind her not so much. She slammed into the lady behind me, who was pushed into me. Since I was on my brakes I managed to keep from being pushed into the car in front of me. The lady at fault admitted to not paying attention, and not noticing we were all stopped.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my guardian angels. If I ever doubted they were there I know I NEVER will again. Today could have been such a bad day, and thanks to some unseen presence Chase and I are both ok. Praise the Lord.

Hollywood Lost Another Great Today

Leslie Nielsen died today at the age of 84. My heart goes out to his friends and family. Hollywood definitely lost a great actor today. His movies were always good for a laugh.

Happy Anniversary to my wonderful husband

November 23, 2004 was the day I married my best friend. 6 years and still going strong. We have been through our share of good times, and bad times, through all of this we have remained united. We may fuss and argue sometimes, but neither of us would rather be anywhere else. We are in this together for the long run.

Jerry, I love you more than I ever thought I could love anyone. Everyday we spend together makes me look forward to the next. I love you more every day. Thank you for being mine.

People

It has come to my attention that people apparently have some sort of "Sense of Entitlement" where other peoples lives are concerned.
One of my favorite bloggers is coming under fire because for some reason people think they are entitled to know every aspect of her life. To me this makes no sense. People blog because they want to. What they choose to share or not share is completely up to them
For some reason some of these "entitled" people have even started at least one blog that I have heard of, just to bash the original blogger.
My advice to the "entitled" people, if you do not agree with someone fine. DON'T read what that person writes. It's the internet for crying out loud. There is this really nifty feature on EVERY webpage a person goes to, it's that little box with an "x" in the top right corner.
Instead of starting drama, and bringing more readers to a blog you don't like, close the page, don't read it, don't go back, and for the love of everything holy don't comment.
My heart goes out to all of the people who are effected by nosy, mean spirited, busy bodies, who have nothing better to do with their lives than to try and bring someone else down to their level.
To my favorite blogger, if you read this, you know who you are. Please continue to do what you do!! I love your blog, and reading about your amazing family.

Time flies.............

Seems like it has been forever since I have taken the time to blog. Monday I start class again. I have definitely enjoyed the break. I know I needed it. Friday (November 19, 2010) we're going to the movie. The new Harry Potter movie opens on the 19th, and since we have been together we have seen them all opening night. This also works as an early anniversary present, since our anniversary happens to be the 23rd. Hard to believe my wonderful husband and I are celebrating 6 years happily married. Together 7, married 6.
December brings it's own list of fun things to do. Dewayne turns 15 on the 1st. Chase turns 3 on the 11th. Megan turns 18 on Christmas Day. Also, we are planning on making one of our famous road-trips. This insures we get to see everyone for Christmas.
As plans stand at the moment we will be leaving here on December 19, and will be home LATE the 25th. My wonderful husband is due back at work on the 27th.

Recommended reading for this post is: Patricia Cornwell. All of the books in her "Scarpetta" series are page turners. I am currently re-reading the series again. My husband is reading the latest book in the series.
