My dream, last night, had Kevin Bacon in it. I know, totally lucky! We were really good friends (which is how it should be in real life). Well, I mentioned the game Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon to him, but said, "I don't need to play that game because I know you!"

This came up on my friend's radio. And yes, I too believe in fat!

And, a final thought.....why is it when I look my worst and feel just as bad, that's when the pharamacist is super cute, youngish, has an adorable accent and is NOT sporting a wedding band. sigh....

Maybe I should just start sleeping in my makeup...it works in the movies, right?!

It's really hard being the only normal one in my family. Sheesh...

Sleep in Heavenly Peace....

One more sleep until Christmas!

(isn't he so cute?)

He went from this (meow meow!)

to this.......

CREEPY!

A Grand Evening

Guess who gets to stay in this posh hotel with some grand gals for Christmas Eve?

Yep, it's me!

Don't be jealous!

Rumor has it.....

He's SINGLE!!!

(so, you're saying there's a chance?)

Bridalplasty

While at the gym today, I got sucked into this new "reality" tv show called Bridalplasty. The girls on the show are trying to become the "perfect bride" by getting all sorts of plastic surgery. While watching, one girl won and got a nose job. At the end, the three bottom brides were picked by the others to stay or not to stay. They chose by sitting at the table of the bride that they wanted to stay. The girl that lost was a breast cancer survivor that wanted to get her boobs fixed. The host said to her, "Your wedding will go on, but it won't be perfect!"

LAME!! (and totally lame that I watched it, too!)

Happy Birthday, Mom!

Today is my mom's 69th birthday. What an old lady!

My mom was pretty funny. She did and said some funny things...sometimes they weren't meant to be funny, but they were.

One that I LOVE actually happened during the holidays. We had a rule in our house that whomever saw a cat barf, had to clean it up. Well, I had seen one of our cats barf and I did not want to clean it up. Blech. So, I just left it there for one unsuspecting person aka mom.
My mom was putting away some jars in our fruit room and headed downstairs. Well, she came across the barf, but not before she started sliding in it. Her adoring children were upstairs frosting cookies when we suddenly heard this, " Son of a b*#@!%, I am sliding in s*#!" Um, it was pretty much one of the funniest things EVER!!

Of course, there are many, many more stories about her. She wasn't perfect, but she taught us some great things. And, if I do say so myself, I think we all turned out pretty well.

I hope she gets a moment to celebrate her life and maybe eat some cake...if they have it in heaven. (which they totally should). I miss her and love her tons!

xoxoxo


p.s I found this photo while cleaning out some stuff. Isn't it pretty sweet? This is my mom and her siblings. My mom is the one with the big hair. (ok, she is the one on the left)
