Good thoughts..


You know those days when you have an almost evil looking grin and no one can figure out what the hell you are smiling about. I love those days. Sometimes it is the smallest thought from back in the day or a current event that makes you smile.

Today is a grinning day. I have had a great weekend catching up on movies I have wanted to see such as Angels & Demons, New Moon, The Blind Side, and Four Christmases. Among with taking my little cousin shopping for Christmas. Wow, the girl can shop at 13, but it was great to spend time with her. She also told me I had style when choosing outfits for her to try on, it made me laugh.

On to the start of a new week and finding all the more reasons to get a big cheesy grin and make people wonder, "What in the hell is she smiling about?" Remember smiles are infectious and can brighten everyone's day.

Happy Thanksgiving!


Giving thanks this year seems as though there is a lot to be thankful for. There has been loss for my family and my husband's. However, our extended family has been given one of the largest gifts ever. (More to come on this later around Dec. 1st).

I am so thankful for my husband who puts up with my hormonal mood swings, lets me travel with my mother, and for my family for just being who they are.

One thing that I wish for but will never receive is that my father could have met my husband. He would have loved this man as much as I do. Even my husband always wishes he could have met my dad and mentions this on occasion. I know my dad can see him, I just hope he is smiling.

Happy Thanksgiving Dad, Grandma, and Grandpa we miss you.

Team Jacob!

Ok, so I finally saw New Moon. After watching it all I can think is creepy, pale, soulless, blood sucking vampire...OR tan, buff, living, werewolf. This seems like a no brainer to me, but then again I am not the author.

The movie was fantastic on all levels but my mother and I couldn't help but laugh. The movie theatre was filled with all middle age women whose kids were in school. It was a funny sight to see, and no men in sight either.

Being that I have not read the books I will dive into that after I finish my other favorite series of vampire books. If you are ever looking for more adult vampire books I highly recommend The Black Dagger Brotherhood Series by J.R. Ward...it truly is an addiction once you start! Give it a try, I dare you.

My happy place


I have found something to make me laugh and smile today. My best friend to the rescue, you know who you are. No matter how bad of a day she can always make me laugh with a crazy (and I mean truly crazy) work antic, a great picture, or just remembering the good old days when we were young and crazy! The best part is that my best friend is coming home from her latest work assignment, so bring on the Chino Latino's

Here is a pic from a girls weekend many years ago, with my best friend walking on a Florida beach. Oddly, I met my husband a few days after this picture was taken of my best friend. Great times!
