American Idol Recap – Idol Gives Back

Tonight the contestants are supposed to sing songs that inspire compassion and hope, as they try to raise money for the Idol Gives Back project.  I certainly hope this doesn’t mean we are in for a night of sappy, sentimental songs.  Because that will seriously make me gag.  Despite the fact that my Top 7 [...]

News and a Meme

My blogging time continues to be limited.  I was out all day today, and I am looking forward to some down-time this evening.  (Down-time includes American Idol, of course!!)  Then tomorrow is crazy again, as I have a long-awaited appointment with that "nutritional counselor", who is supposed to help me with my tummy trouble.  Supposedly [...]

Got Nuttin’

I’m clean out of blog fodder at the moment.  So I’ll just regale you with some of my random thoughts. I have Bible Study in the morning, and I totally forgot to prepare this week’s lesson.  Ooops.  I don’t enjoy the discussion nearly as much when I haven’t prepared, to say nothing of the fact [...]

Too Busy To Blog!

I feel like my life right now is a rocket, and I’m hurtling through space without a moment to take a potty break, much less blog.  This last weekend was a whirlwind.  My parents came and left, and now I’m on my own again.  But I still feel like I don’t have time to blog.  [...]

What Are Your 7 Favorite Songs?

Big Mama tagged her readers with this meme, to come up with your 7 favorite songs.  I couldn’t resist this challenge. Like Big Mama, it would be very easy for me to pick all my favorite songs from one or two artists, but I’m going to try to pick a selection of songs that is [...]

Spring Is Back!

Ahhhhhhhhhhh…  Spring!  The sun is shining.  The birds are singing.  All of my windows are open to let in the mild, fresh air.  I dressed the kids and myself in bermuda shorts and short sleeves this morning, but maybe that was a little premature.  It will be fine when it reaches 70 degrees this afternoon, [...]

My Morning Devotions

This is the prayer I found this morning in my devotional for April 19th.  I thought it was particularly appropriate for this week.  I found myself praying it through several times. O Lord, our Heavenly Father, who orderest all things for our eternal good, mercifully enlighten our minds, and give us a firm and abiding [...]

American Idol Results

Okay, first things first.  How AWESOME is Martina McBride?  Omigosh.  LOVE. HER. And Melinda just continues to win my heart.  She is such a cutie-pie.  I loved how she sat down in the middle of the stage and refused to join a group.  Well, tonight is the night we’ve all been waiting for.  I still [...]

What Song Would You Be Embarassed For People To Know Is On Your iPod?

I was driving to pick up our Chinese take-out dinner this afternoon, and I found myself in one of those rare moments when I was all by myself in the car.  So I took the opportunity to blast my favorite kid-unfriendly playlist.  When I was about half-way there, Paradise City by Guns & Roses came [...]

5-Minute Recap

Are there any What Not To Wear fans out there?  After American Idol, it is probably my favorite TV show.  I’ve been watching since season 1.  Any of yall remember that dude with the long hair that was Stacey’s co-host before Clinton?  What was his name? So you’re probably wondering what that has to do [...]
