I will have to write several blogs about this night. Wow! I mean it really rocked. First, I was scared spitless. I told the chairman of the social committe to just do without me. I was not trying for attention, I had literally talked myself out of the gig. I was panicking, as usual. So, he talked me... Sign in to see full entry.
Maybe I'll make it through the night without making a fool out of myself!
There is a very good reason that I haven't talked about tonight's gig. Frankly, I never believed it would happen. But someone has made it happen and, tonight, at the casino, appearing for one night only -- in his original band (The Kingmi Band) -- Mr. Kingmi will perform for the holiday revelers....

I have gone back to ignoring the negatives and accentuating the positives
The end of the winter break, going back to school, brought several realizations to me. First, that I had started to nit-pik my daughters. Second that they weren't going back to their mother's. I had to remind myself of the wonderful progress my kids have made. I had to stop and think, wait a minute!... Sign in to see full entry.

Another meet and greet, another fantastic, sexy lady, much younger than
but not more energetic than me. In addition, she's in education, actually the education aspect of health care. We spent three hours across from each other demonstrating that face time is important. We talked about everything from family to personal to professional to research to learning strategies... Sign in to see full entry.

My Dating Site Meet 'n' Greet turned into a Date 'n' Mate..................
Nearly. I got to thinking about the experience of last night. How close to the real thing it was, how unexpected, and how do I avoid getting in trouble? Some of the ladies seem so nice and I do not know them at all. I don't know who their partners have been, how many and how regularly. So, I did a... Sign in to see full entry.

My Date Tonight was supposed to be only a Meet and Greet...................
Well, I have to talk about what my date was like tonight. I knew that my daughter would be at work from four until ten-thirty, and I was kind of hoping for someone to goof off with, so I wouldn't have to go home and clean house. Well, the gal I met tonight -- a one last chancer that I am allowing my... Sign in to see full entry.

I have successfully changed my password. New one is Isabel05! FYI
Now that that is cleared up, I can honestly state that my new password has been altered so that none of the shennanigans mentioned here tonight will take place in my hut. You people are starting to freak me out! I am reading a delightful book called Camel Club. It is about how a group of... Sign in to see full entry.

How do we teach our children right vs wrong if the public sector is wrong?
Last night my brother and I went to see "Munich" by Stephen Spielberg. It was a great movie, a dynamic success, Hollywood style, and promotes Hitler's big lie. My question is, if this kind of social bunk is rampant out of Hollywood, and if the public schools won't let us teach about religion, and... Sign in to see full entry.

When you wish upon a star your dreams come true............................
Well, my dreams have all come true for this Christmas. Evrything I ever wanted for my children has come to pass. They are healthy, happy. They both have friends. Caitlin gave me a scare that she had earned a "B" in her college nursing course (she is in 11th grade HS) but she really earned an "A".... Sign in to see full entry.

I open mouth and insert foot like that almost every day. Fearlessly!
This is the end of finals week for my girls. High schoolers nowadays are only required to show up for specific finals during this week. It only happens twice per year, end of the semesters. Well, my older daughter was studying at her boyfriend's house last night until late. I had to talk with her... Sign in to see full entry.
