Cross your fingers...hold your breath...rub the Budda's belly...




I have just been informed that Shane has a chance to win Guitar Hero in a work raffle! Ohhhhh baby I am hoping for the best. He doesn't want to get it of course because we would then have to get the PS2 system but, I on the other hand I can't contain myself!!! So everyone out there wish me luck! I hardly ever win anything so Karma is on my side right? Maybe I should do nice things today! Quick I need to go start my list...

Tag? Who's it? I'm it?



* I love Hot Tamales although I have been banned from them for reasons not to be discussed!


* I can say that I used to have a lot of talents. I used to play the piano and flute very well and now I don't think very well is quite the word to describe it. I am living proof of the "use it or lose it" phrase!

* Come to think of it I used to do a lot of things that I don't do any longer. Scrapbooking is something that I only do once a year it seems. I love to do it though.
* I prefer chocolate over vanilla.
* I love Sarah McLachlan, Coldplay, John Mayer, Destiny's Child and more.
* I did Karaoke to "Say my name" by Destiny's Child in front of a bunch of strangers on a ship in the middle of the ocean!
* I took French 101 twice and got the same grade! It wasn't that good either! Viva la France!
* I am very indecisive! Just ask anyone!




* I love any kind of fruit. I really like watermelon and I really like to eat it when I am pregnant! I am currently not eating any watermelon nor to I anticipate any watermelon eating in the near future.


* I can't get enough of movies lately! I joined the Disney Movie Club and I am proud to say I am a member!



* There is nothing like a great movie and I just love curling up and watching. In fact watching movies is how I deal with my life...well that and sleeping!


* I like to be organized.


* I don't think anyone that knows me would call me organized. I have a hard time accomplishing tasks.


* I have a lot of unfinished tasks.


* I once tried out for my HS Golf team.


* I didn't make it!


* Shane thinks that is great humor!






* I love to travel, although I don't do it that often. Shane and I have come to find that we can better serve our kids by taking a break to have some fun in the sun!



* I have way too many TV shows I am addicted to! First is The Office. I love love this show. "That's what she said!"


* I can't stop laughing when I watch Scrubs. Shane thinks it is more entertaining to watch me watch the show.


* Of course no Weds night would be complete if I didn't watch Lost! Must say it is a fave of mine!


* One of my nick names from a dear friend in HS is "stools" (thanks Steph)! I had great fun in HS doing various odd and sometimes dangerous things! Have you ever visited Mrs. Robinson's grave? If not I know a group of HS kids that would love to take you to see her!



* I love to dance and sing all the time. I dance in the kitchen when I am making dinner. I give the kids a little show when I make lunch for them! Music is great fun!




* Speaking of music...I LOVE Guitar Hero! That game is sooooo fun and I don't know how much longer I can go without having it!



* I would like to do a lot of things in life but I just can't get organized enough to do them. Either that or I at the end of the day I just don't have the energy to do them!



* I think I have said enough random things about me and people may stop talking to me because they now have concrete evidence that I am "strange" or "psycho." Either one will work!



I would tag someone else but I only 2 people that have a blog and I don't think there are any touch backs!

Ahhh.... Music


There is something about it. I have contemplated my life these last days and have come to the conclusion that music is just great. Now that I have my trusty ipod nano with speakers my kitchen is filled with music, lip syncing/singing, and dancing. For some reason my life is not complicated when I am singing and dancing to music. I sing to Andrew and Alli during their lunch and it is great fun. We all like to jam to the beat. The kitchen is full of groovin' tots and at least one adult! Even Ty gets into it with the shake down and head banging he does in his chair! They probably think their mother is crazy...or maybe that is why they love to sing so much. So today as I was making dinner and listening to the Fugees belt out "No woman No cry" I thought "how cool is it that I am chillin' dancing and grooving to music." All the stresses melt away when I hear that funky beat! So let the music play y'all!
