Idol Fever ????



Who are you rooting for? Of course it's David Archuleta all the way for me. I think this kid is bound to win the whole thing. With his voice, his sweet shyness and charisma how could he not? In many polls he was initially the front runner. It seems that David Cook is heading that up at the moment. There was also alot of talk that maybe David A had peaked too soon. So, in a way I think it's a good thing that he forgot the lyrics a couple of weeks ago. He definitely had a great performance last week. His fans show now signs of slowing down in their quest to make him the next Idol. The other contestants just seem like barely a blip to me, though I do like Jason Castro's deprecating silliness. His performances always entertain me. Yet, he is nowhere near the level David is. So VOTE for David A. Ha I do!

Tati said not to post this.........

So I did. HAhahahHA! I think it's cute. Cute little dorks messing around at walmart. Ahhh well it's good clean fun. Ha!

Red & Mookey


moved in . But, only for a month. These used to be our pets. They are currently living with Ervin. Our new place does not allow any pets. Gahhh! We did however talk them into letting us have them for 1 month, while Ervin is out of the country. So.........yesterday I came home and the living room smelled like a farm. Yeah, Tati had not cleaned out Mookeys cage. So I called her and made her come home early so she could do that. Since they are hers, you know! Anway, Mookey loves cucumbers and Red has a habit of floating on his back. We have to keep making sure he is alive. We think his swim bladder is broken. I don't know, maybe? It is fun having them though. We keep them til April 18. Fun times!

Spring Cleaning~~~



Whew! Good thing I found this book amongst my stash of how to books. Picture this : Me walking around a broom in one hand and this book in the other! Ha! I love it.

I wish!

Spring is here!



Time to start wearing those spring clothes! Although today is much too chilly. My daughter is stoked to be wearing these clothes again. I love this photo, makes me think of Flower Power.

Indian food anyone?



I want some naan! I always spend too much when I go out to eat Indian food. I wish I was best friends with an owner of say, a place like Royal India. Then I could get discounts. Hmmmm

To Be Brown or Not to be Brown........

That is the question I had been asking myself. Anyway, I cannot believe that I actually paid money to HURT myself. Not very funny really. I went to Sunset Beach Friday evening. My daughter frequents this place and is quite dark , a beautiful nutty brown. I however am quite pale. We don't quite match. So .................I was thinking (or as it turns out, not thinking properly) and I gave in and went to this Sunset Beach place. Well............the girl their didn't question me about whether or not I burn. Apparently we both thought I would have no trouble tanning since I am hispanic. Wrong! I went 20 minutes in a Ruva bed. And boy let me tell you, I am so glad I did not go on a work night, or I would have called in sick the next day. The first hours afterward were fine. Then I started to shiver and turned a bright, bright pink. All over, yes All over. The shivering became uncontrollable by about 10 in the evening. My daughter was about with her best friend Linds and not due home til 11:30. She text me about 11:00 asking to stay out longer. I told her "No, please no! I can't fall asleep til you come home." So, she appeared about 11:45. She was quite shocked to find me in full distress. It seems kind of funny now. But, I was sure I was going to DIE! I was shivering uncontrollably, even though I had on pajamas, a robe and was covered in heavy blankets. She heated an extra blanket in the dryer and tucked that in. I warmed up a bit. But the shivers came in waves. I thought I would puke. But happily didn't. She came to lay with me til she was sure I wouldn't die. Lol, Oh my What a night! I woke about 7:00, then again at 9:oo and finally got up at 11:00. The coffee she had brewed for me was quite weak, but I drank it anyway. After a shower (a very careful shower), I made a list. A list for Tati to finish my errands and do some of my grocery shopping. She was more than happy to do it. I think she wanted to get away from all my painful moaning. Anyway, she returned and I was soooooooo happy to see the Aloe Gel. Miracle Gel. She rubbed it on my back and when I lay down on the couch, my shirt was prompty glued to my back. I cannot espouse the medicinal properties of Aloe Gel enough. This stuff is simply amazing. I am almost feeling like myself again. Though I am quite tired. As if the burn sucked all the energy out of me. I hope tomorrow is better, because it is Easter. Tati did buy more eggs and some dye and a cute little basket. I will try to get up early and go shop for some nice dinner items. Not sure yet what I will want to cook up. But it will be fresh. So....today was a bummer for me. Lol. I am sooooooooo glad that Tatiana can drive. Never thought I would say that!

Ciao and Happy Painted Eggs Day!

May tomorrow be the greatest Fashion show ever.!

I had to Spring Forward today.......

Lucky there was no work today. It will take me at least a week to adjust my sleep schedule. gahhh! At least I will love the sun staying around longer. I think they should just leave the time alone after this.

I love the photo above. For some reason it reminds me of Audry Hepburn. Not that she looks like her, maybe just sort of reminiscent of that time period. I love Black and White photos.

Today is an absolutely gorgeous day. I was outside and felt almost compelled to take a long walk. I said Almost !~ Ha. But today I did some major cleaning, it felt good to get that done.

This next Saturday the 15th is the Spring Fling dance at my daughters school. So yesterday Tatis father took her dress shopping. Luckily for him she had already picked it out the day before. Lucky guy , he only had to pay for it. It was his turn! And he certainly got off easy. The last dress cost $100, this one was only $22 and some change. It sure is pretty, a light purple with black straps. I will post a photo of her wearing it next weekend. She will look amazing. As usual.

I want to go see Horton Hears a Who, not sure if I will though. Looks like a cute movie.

Today after cleaning I felt very irritable. So I looked on the WWW for advice. So I am now eating a bowl of whole grain cereal. Hopefully it helps. I don't want to spend the whole day feeling this way. Especially since yesterday was wasted because I slept on my neck wrong. I woke up all twisted and headachy. It wasn't til 5:00 p.m. that I finally pulled myself together.

Yesterday evening I went the to the Rancho Market, they had wonderful oranges for 7 lbs for .99 cents. Limit of 14 lbs. There was nothing nearby to weigh them with, so I only managed to get 9 lbs. I should go back today. It was awesome having freshly sqwozen! (I know not a word!) Orange juice for breakfast. Gave me that much needed boost to clean this darn place properly. They also had avocados 3 for .99 cents, awesome price! I like this store, though it is a little cramped. Everyone is so nice there. Yes, I decided I will stop by there later and pick up more ORANGES! Yay, oranges for everyone in the land.

Well, I am out of random thoughts for now. So I will just say Ciao and Cya later!
