I hate to see something so special coming to an end. Discovery's 39th mission will be it's final mission.

My poor neglected blog

I know I have been out of pocket again here lately. At least this time I have a decent excuse, well at least I think I do and that is what matters. The little munchkin had the flu, then Jerry ended up with it, and then I got it. I thought little bit was finally on the mend, but I think he's trying to get sick again. I will be so glad when the weather straightens out some. Down to 49 tonight, up to 77 tomorrow. No wonder we're all sick.

On a different note, recommended reading for this post is "The Postcard Killers" By James Patterson.

Personally I love all of James Patterson's books and this one is no different. It has been a very enjoyable book.

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.
