Another day...another blog....Well, Friday finally made it. This has been the longest week ever! I'm so glad that I have a 3 day weekend to relax! I also have only one more room to clean out and I will have everything that will be garage sale material. Now if I can just score some cash with the garage sale. LOL!
.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.
I can't believe the number of blog entries I read yesterday concerning the Tom/Kate disaster. I hope he surfs blogs and runs across them. I also had a thought on the way to work this morning. How ironic would it be if a raging hormonal post-partum woman quit her meds becaause Tom said so and then hunted him down and tried to kill him? Think he would believe in depression meds then? Probably not, he'd probably think her inner alien told her to do it.

Feeding the dog
LittleMan has made a new game out of feeding my Nana's dog, Bruno. He asks my aunt for food (usually Cheerios), tells her thank you, and feeds it to Bruno. The cycle continues on endlessly.

Site of the day
Today's site of the day is Raising Liam. Stop by and say hi!

Three things
Today I will have a different twist on three things....How about you find three things, pack them up, go here, and find someone to send them to.
.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.
Celebrities
Why does anyone really care what celebrities do? Why are they set to a higher status than say, your neighbor across the street? They aren't known for being overly intelligent or even being able to think outside of the box which is Hollywood, so why do we really care? Why does the fact that Tom made the comments about medications get us in an uproar? I think if my next-door neighbor told me that he thought that the foundation for life had something to do with aliens and that he didn't believe in medication, I'd laugh to myself and probably refer to him as the "Crazy neighbor". But for some reason we are disappointed in Tom. At what point do we grant them "all-knowing" status and then at what point to we begin to "expect" them to do stupid things? I don't think anyone was disappointed in Madonna when she presented her daughter with a credit card with a $10,000 limit a few weeks ago. We rolled our eyes with a "Here she goes again" and it was forgotten 5 minutes later. I seriously dobut there were droves of people blogging about her stupidity. Had he really gained that much confidence in the public's eyes before this incident?
.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.
I hope all of you have a wonderful weekend!!

Lives in a tiny town; spends tons of time with family; reads; enjoys crafts. Can change a diaper, fill a sippy cup, and put on a toddler's shoes in 15.4 seconds flat, all while calculating the impact of petroleum hydrocarbons to a nearby surface water body (watch for me in the Toddler Olympics on CBS this fall). Addicted to Dr. Pepper; Kit Kats; and pasta. To spot me in a crowd: I'm the one with frizzy messed-up hair, smeared graham crackers on my shirt; huge purse with a diaper peeking out, toddler on her hip, and camera in hand at all times.
