20 Things I Love...

I'm staying true to my "No Pity Party" posts so I decided to write about 20 things I Love...

Snuggling underneath a warm blanket with the one you love in the middle of winter...

Time change in the fall...

Coming home after a hard day at work and my dog meets me at the door and just rolls over on her back and gives me those side eyes that say, "I've been waiting on my tummy rub all day!"...

Having someone else wash my hair...

Getting money I never expected...

How Obama is just so damn cool...


Those few friends I have that really understand ME! They don't let me down and they are there exactly when I need them. Whether I called them or not...

Catching up with old friends and feeling like time never passed...

Snow Crab Legs...

Accomplishment of a tough task...

A cold nose and cuddle time with my doggie...

A good movie with a happy ending...

Seeing the light bulb go off when a student finally understands...

Final car payments...

Seeing a man truly appreciate the beauty of a woman. One that gives sincere compliments, not a gawk or a stare and most certainly not crass statements about a woman's body parts...

A well put together melody...

Southern Sweet Tea. Enough said...

Curling up with a good book and no distractions for hours...

My people...

How my family just fits together like the patchwork quilts my grandma used to make...

My list could go on and on, but I must get back to work! Take time today to reflect on those things that make you smile. Then, SMILE!

Until next time... pay no attention to those pesky gas signs...

Oops! That was a pity party remark! Sarcasm is creeping back upon my shoulders...

So Today I needed a laugh...

My good people.
I've been between the paperwork.
Under the microscope.
Feel like the whole world's a stage.
Can't even reach the beloved mountaintop.
What is we gone do?

A message to Y'all know who you are...
I'm turning down the invitation to your pity parties.
Don't want to hear your crying.
Please, find someone else to gripe to.
I gotta do the same thing and still make it through my day.

So...
today..
I...
LAUGH...
with...
or...
without...
YOU :-)











Ahh! I feel better now...
Until next time... I remain...

Kudos to Go Zack!

I finally got around to visiting my favorite blogs today. Posts, including mine are buzzing about politics, politics, politics... What a mess we have here with folks name calling and finger pointing! I read fellow blogger Go Zack's post about the "dilemma" of Gov. Palin's daughter and I must say, I had a good chuckle about that one! Thanks Zack for the light moment!!

The Republican National Convention was...

...the cheesiest low blow action I've seen in a long time. I viewed the Palin speech just now with a serious feeling of downright disgust. I've never seen so many wax faced country folks wearing big ole Texas J.R. Ewing hats in one place. They look dead I tell ya! Dead mannequins hanging out at the convention! The arrival of the hurricane on the 1st day should have been fair warning. The convention did not need to go on!! The one's that didn't look dead looked like the were starved for SOME kind of attention! Who the heck wears a button that says "Our state is voting for the HOT CHICK"?!?!? Don't get me wrong, I'M NOT ANGRY... I'm disappointed in how totally classless tonight's speeches were. This convention is on a whole different level and I don't mean on a higher pedestal than last week's DNC... In my humble opinion, the McCain-Palin ticket needs to work on trying to create a better America rather than collaborating to come up with put down after put down of Obama. CLASS-LESS! This came even after Obama defended Palin and told the media her 17 year old unmarried pregger daughter should be off limits for media discussion... The choices the GOP are making and the stance they are taking and the non-tasteful manners they are showing the rest of America does NOT endear their camp to me nor should it to anyone with half a brain. Even their venue is cheesy. What was up with those images of America they were showing in the background?? Two words :-) CHEE-SY!!!!! What y'all need to do is get some serious sex education over there in Alaska so PALIN's state wouldn't rank at almost the #1 state for sexually transmitted diseases! Low Blow that you Hockey Mom!

Ok! I'm dog dead tired and have tons of work to do and should NOT be blogging right now but hey, I feel better now...
