What is my fave movie & why....... (for June 4)











First off, I am really slacking on my journaling for the month.... this is for Friday June 4........








My favorite movie probably would be "Urban Cowboy" with John Travolta and Debra Winger. I really don't have any idea why, other than I really like John Travolta. Men in wranglers! Country music...... I could watch this movie over and over again! And I have.. my favorite line from the movie is.... "Sissy did he hit you......?" Bud and Sissy.... love it!!!! love it!!!!!!




My second favorite movie would be "An Officer and a Gentlemen" with Richard Gere and again Debra Winger. There is just something about a man in uniform! And I love the end where Zach (RG) comes into the factory and carries Paula (DW) out and everyone is chanting "GO Paula".


So my two favorite movies I could watch over and over again are "Urban Cowboy" and "An officer and a gentlemen" Love them!!!! I guess I am just a true romantic at heart :-)




Happy Movie Watching!

"What makes You happy"






Wow, What makes me Happy? Well, there is a lot that makes me happy. But I will only list a few and tell you why they make me happy.




First, would be my family- my husband, daughter, mom and dad, sister and brother. I love spending time with all of them. Since my sister has moved to Colorado, so time spent with her isn't as often has it has been in the past. And of course, my brother is living in Oklahoma at this time But my parents are still close by (their house is on the market for sale, and then they will eventually be movning to Georgia....wow, everyone is moving away) I love spending time with my husband and daughter. Going to the movies, beach, or riding roller coaster with Cassidy. hanging with Shawn spending quiet time just being with him! When I am with my family I am HAPPY!!!!




Second, I love a good book. I am happy curled up on the couch, or in bed or taking a nice warm bubble bath reading a good book!!!




Third, I love a good movie. I love happy endings. I even love a movie that will make you cry. Sometimes you just need a good cry!!




I am very happy with my life. And I wouldn't trade anything!




Happy Thoughts!






"Color-Blue" (posting for Wednesday June 2)

Blue----what do I think of when I see the color "BLUE"

*The color of my daughter's eyes the first time I saw her
*The color of my dad's eyes.
*The color of my Big Grandma's eyes
*The big blue ocean
*The sky that goes forever in Montana
*The blue football field for the college (I think it is Idaho) now that is blue!!!
*Growing up, people would ask me if my eyes were real. (they are blue) Of course, I said they are my eyes and they are real!!!!
*The bedroom at my nan's when I was growing up
*Brand new baby boys!

These are just a few things that I think of when I see the color blue! So I guess, Blue would be considered my happy color!







"What my dream summer would be be" **this is my posting for June 1st**


My dream summer would be to take the whole summer off (June & July) from work, rent a motorhome and travel across the United States. Go to places we have never been before. Travel on roads that are not traveled often. Stay off the interstates if you can! Visits cities and towns, that are off the beaten path and have something interesting to offer.
Just pile everyone up and off we go! We could probably take Marley, but we have to have him loaded up with medicine so he could ride in the motorhome!
How much fun would that be? I am sure that there would be lots of laughing, maybe some yelling--after all that is close quarters for many weeks! But I am sure it will bring us closer as a family! Who knows, maybe one day we can do this, before everyone gets to old!
Happy Summer days!!!!!



Happy Summer Traveling :-)


Journal Writing


Ok, it is now June 3rd, so I am 2 days behind in typing this. But Cassidy & I started on June 1st writing in a daily journal. For everyday of this month we have a title page to write about. We will be doing this also for the month of July. And then on August 1st, we will be switching journals to read what each other wrote over the summer. I decided to this because I thought it would be a good way to maybe learn more about each other and also, to maybe somehow get Cassidy (and myself in writing daily). You never know, one day we really might enjoy reading these. So I am going to give it a shot, to typing mine on my blog here and also in my little notebook that I got just for this summer project that we are going to do.

So I am off and writing!

The beginning of the week....

Well, I have made thru yet another Monday. I got up went to work and I left work around 11 am, to pick Cassidy up from school, so she could get home and finish her English exam writing and take it back to school, so she wouldn't have to go to school tomorrow. She did it!!! Yea Cassidy :-)

There is just one more day left to this school year. And what a challenging year 8th grade has been for all of us. I am so hoping that next year goes better. This summer we are going to get on a schedule and stick to it!!! Stick to it I say!!!!!!

Cassidy is going to read 2 books this summer and both Cassidy & I are going to do a daily journal. We are going together, pick a day which we will exchange them and read what each other has written. I so hope this will help Cassidy over all.....

Well, I need to get ready for bed. And I will work on getting myself together with this blogging....

** We are going to start on daily journal writing on June 1st. And the 1st topic will be.... "What would be my dream summer"

Happy Monday!

Looks who is back..........

Hello Blogville.......

This is just a fast short note, to say I am still around. But as you can see above, a litttle blue blinking "training" box.. Yes, I am training to walk 60 miles in 3 days! Yes, you heard that correct. October 29,30,31, 2010, I am going to walk 60 miles with my sister n law-Debra, my sister Dianne and about 2000 other men & women. We are walking for the Susan G. Koemen Breast cancer.... So, we have to do some serious walking before October 29.... you just can't wake up on the 29th and go "I think I am going to walk about 20 miles today" and then sleep in a tent and get up and do it again!!!!!

So I will keep you posted... But you can also go to the susangkoemen3dayforthecure website and look up "boonesboobs", I am doing a litttle blog on there. Also, you can make a donation, I have to raise $2300 for the walk. So go check us out.

Happy Tuesday night!
