My uncle sent me this as an email and I wanted to share it, but didn't want to send out a mass email so here it is:
Do not get many like this: good historical pics.
Enjoy!
I was a little shocked by the pictures
When it penetrated my brain
How long she's been around.
She gives new meaning to the phrase
"Long Live the Queen"
How old does this one make you feel?
I don't know about you,
But I went OMG somewhere
Between Eisenhower and Truman.
( P.S. After looking at this
I am shocked at how long
I've been around, too...)

I'm a thief...AGAIN!!!
Whenever I steal something I try to give credit where credit is due...I stole this from Crissy's Haven:
Your Birthdate: September 2 |
![]() You're so intuitive, it's like you have a sixth, seventh, and eighth sense. You connect with others freely and easily - and you tend to have many best friends. Warm and caring, it's hard for you to close your heart to anyone. Affection is like air for you - you need to give and receive it to survive.

The Weighty Update...PLUS other stuff
Starting Weight: 264.4 lbs.
New Weight: 221.8 lbs.
Weight gained this week: 0.4 lbs.
Total lost: 42.6 lbs
So it was a gain week but BMI and Body Fat% went down so I think it might be muscle gain again, which is good!
Now for the other stuff:
My friend, Devonda, wanted me to repost this (She posted this bulletin on MySpace, but knew that others had posted about the contest elsewhere as well). Here's what she had to say,
"It was a good run, but (Devonda) has been ELIMINATED...
...I was able to finish in the top 30, but didn't receive quite enough votes to move to the next round.
TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!! THERE'S ALWAYS NEXT YEAR!
...or maybe I could move to the next county...........................................*thinking*
ROFL!
I want to thank EVERYONE who voted.
!!!!! I have received confirmation of votes from as far west as Los Angeles, CA & as far east as GERMANY!!!
WOW!! I am feeling the love right now!!!
I am exhausted...so I'm going to relax.
MWAH! MYSPACE FAM-!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
...and as always....
Peace and blessings,
(Devonda)"
For a local newspaper contest, there were a TON of votes!!! Votes for her Group alone were well over 60,000. Thanks to all who voted for her, as you can see she is VERY Grateful!
My bracelet should be here this week!!!
I got an email from Chrisi over at Chrisi’s Creations this morning. I'll let you know when it arrives!
That's about it (for now anyway).

A Plea for a Friend...Please vote for Devonda!
I'm only doing this because she is (even though I haven't seen her in YEARS!!!) a good friend from my past, AND I know what kind of singer she is and she is one of the best! She's in a contest near her home that the local newspaper is doing. You don't have to live in the area to vote you just have to have access to a computer anyway her name is listed as Devonda A.H Walker on their website and you can vote as often as you want...she's up today (April 4th) with her group and then she'll be up on the site April 5th & 6th along with all the other contestants. Please vote for Devonda A.H Walker as the 2008 FLORIDA TODAY Brevard Idol! That link takes you to the contestants page so you'll have to find her on that page to vote. Yes this is only Round 1 so I may be posting this (or something like it again if she moves on, but don't let that discourage you...she is VERY talented.)
Thanks in advance! No, there's nothing in this for me!
AN UPDATE (POSTED ON APRIL 5th): She is in Group 5 and the link above NOW takes you to a page to choose from the groups...so you must click on GROUP 5 and then her to get to her voting page. You can also vote as often as you like!

I'm a what?!?!?!
I'm a Lifer!


To you, a job is what pays the bills. You put in your hours, follow the rules, and then go home. Occasionally, you consider quitting, but then you think of how bad the job market is and you reconsider. Whatever happiness you get, you get from your life outside the workplace. Relationships, family, hobbies, and outside creative pursuits are what really matter to you. You're probably taking this test at work because you don't have anything better to do.
Talent: 31%
Lifer: 62%
Mandarin: 51%
Take the Talent, Lifer, or Mandarin quiz.

Interesting Easter Facts . . . How 'bout that!
This is something my mom emailed me the other day...so for those wondering "WHY EASTER IS SOOOOOOO EARLY THIS YEAR" here's your answer.
Easter is special every year, but this year there's even one more reason for celebration. This is pretty neat.
Easter this year is: Sunday March 23, 2008. As you may know, Easter is always the 1st Sunday after the 1st full moon after the Spring Equinox (which is March 20). This dating of Easter is based on the lunar calendar that Hebrew people used to identify Passover, which is why it moves around on our Roman calendar.
Found out a couple of things you might be interested in! Based on the above, Easter can actually be one day earlier (March 22) but that is pretty rare.
This year is the earliest Easter any of us will ever see the rest of our lives! Only the most elderly of our population have ever seen it this early (95 years old or above!). And none of us have ever, or will ever, see it a day earlier!
Here are the facts:
The next time Easter will be this early (March 23) will be the year 2228 (220 years from now). The last time it was this early was 1913 (so if you're 95 or older, you are the only ones that were around for that!). The next time it will be a day earlier, March 22, will be in the year 2285 (277 years from now). The last time it was on March 22 was 1818. So, no one alive today has or will ever see it any earlier than this year!

I was feeling "Springy"
This past Friday, I was feeling a little "springy" so I changed my blog template. I hope you like it...I'm still trying to come up with a final look, but I haven't really decided on one yet.
My weekend was fantastic!!! On Friday there was the Michael Buble concert, and then on Saturday there was Jersey Boys THEN there was my brother's birthday party that night. (No it wasn't actually ON his birthday, but it was the only time we could all get together). My in-laws went with hubby and I to both the Buble Concert and Jersey Boys and then the in-laws went home and hubby the kids and I traveled for the birthday party...and then stayed over at my parents and went to church with them on Sunday...so while the kiddos were stuck with the babysitter for 2 days in a row (which let me tell you I almost felt "mommy guilt", except we haven't left them with a sitter in forever) they still had a blast, because they saw all their favorite people in on weekend which usually only happens on birthdays or holidays.
Well that was my crazy weekend...how was yours?

It's official! I'm kid friendly...but this is MESSED UP!!! But in a funny way of course!
So Angelika had posted that she was rated NC-17, but not for the usual reasons...so I thought I'd try it a few times...and keep editing the same post just to see what would happened...enjoy the following:
I went and rated myself and this is what I got:
I wonder what would happen if I used the words: sex or hurt or pain even innocently as in, "My child fell down the other day and skinned his knee. He said that it really hurt and he was in a lot of pain. So being the loving mother that I am I took him to the doctor to be checked out. Once there, they gave me a form to fill out. I did and took it back to the window. The nurse looked over the paperwork and informed me that I forgot to check the box for my child's sex. I corrected the problem and we went in to see the doctor. The good news is that my child is fine."

Well, I'm still:
but with a warning about the use of the word pain x2. I wonder how many times I'd have to use it to make a PG? Let's find out
checking website
by just using the word again when informing you of what happened
I have NOW a
This rating was determined based on the presence of the following words:
pain (3x) hurt (2x)

OK one more let's go...

This rating was determined based on the presence of the following words:
pain (5x) hurt (4x) sex (3x)
That's pretty messed up!!! Funny...but MESSED UP nonetheless. Hey! At least I'm social,"...sad and demented, but social."
