Friday Fun - Turn Your Pictures into Magazine Covers

Friday, June 13th, 2008

I was reading a blog that I found through Google Alerts and unfortunately I can’t name the blog because I don’t remember. Anyways, she had this cool thing in one of her posts and I had to check it out! It’s called Mag My Pic. You take a picture, upload it & then boom…you’re on the cover of a magazine. I did one of Caleb and what fun would it of been if I didn’t ‘glamorize’ myself?

Here’s my little wrestling champ!

And here’s me

Kind of dorky but oh yeah I’m a dork so this was right up my alley :-) If you wanna try it out, head on over to Mag My Pic.

Friday Night Fun

Saturday, May 17th, 2008

Last night Caleb and I hung out with my grandma & grandpa (dad’s parents) and my Aunt and Uncle for a couple hours. It was nice visiting. Caleb had fun showing them his videos of his wrestling tournaments. All of them are always in Florida for the winter by the time his wrestling season starts so they don’t get to see it. My grandma was freaking out about how rough of a sport it is and she kept telling all of us over and over (this could of also had to do with the Alzheimer’s that is taking it’s toll on her body) how she couldn’t believe that we would watch something so rough and watch Caleb get hurt. I don’t think she understood that Caleb isn’t the one to be concerned about getting hurt - it’s the kids he wrestles that we should be concerned with ;-) He’s only been hurt once and that was in his first year of doing it when he wasn’t all that experienced.

When we got home, I got online to check email and say hi to Twitter land and now I’m writing this post and setting it up to publish tomorrow (that’s one of my favorite features about WordPress!). So even though you will be reading this today (Saturday) I’m actually writing it tonight (Friday).

I can’t believe that on a Friday night I even followed my new ‘bedtime’! It was 10:52 when I was writing this post and I had to have it done by 11pm so I could go to bed. I don’t know whether that’s crazy, good, the lack of a social life or the fact that I’m just getting ‘older’ ;-) Whatever way you look at it, sleep is a huge thing for me (just the fact that I’ve even been getting any the last couple days is a HUGE thing for me) and it’s certainly helping in many different areas of my life! I only hope that I can keep it up. They say it takes about 28 days to make something a habit so I’ve only got 20 some more days to go and I’ll have this 11pm thing down pat!

I don’t know that I would call this the most exciting Friday night fun but one thing I have noticed as I’ve gotten older is that it’s a lot more important for me to hang out with my ‘elderly’ family members than what it used to be.

NKOTB - Live on the Today Show!

Friday, May 16th, 2008

Ok I’ve openly admitted the fact that even after all these years I still like NKOTB (New Kids on the Block). I was in love obsessed with them back in the early 90’s (it might of even been late 80’s) when they first came out and I longed to see them in person and get any chance I could to be close to Jordan Knight (oh he was super dreamy! I never did get a chance to go to a concert). I owned VHS tapes, sheets, bedspread, buttons, t-shirts, a watch, and even a duffel bag. None of that compares to all the Teen Bop magazines I had to buy to decorate my wall (every inch of it - you honestly couldn’t see an empty spot on my wall!) with NKOTB.

Oh those were the days.

Maybe NKOTB is a guilty pleasure or just part of me trying to hang onto my youth or maybe it’s all part of a mid-life crisis? Oh wait I think only men go through those ;-) Whatever the cause may be, I’m happy excited to announce they will be appearing live on The Today Show this morning to perform a concert! Yes a concert!

I can’t wait! My DVR is set to record their appearance but I’ll be watching it too! I think I might be a little too geeked about this but hey I can’t help it, it’s big news for any NKOTB fan! Seriously, it is! Maybe this will help cure that longing that I still have to see them in concert. Should a 30 something woman be admitting she still has a secret longing to see them? Guess it’s not so secret anymore ;-)

And I have to say that Jordan Knight is still kind of dreamy but Mark Wahlberg kind of got my attention back when he started appearing in movies. He’s kind of sexy in that bad boy sort of way.

What a Day!

Friday, April 25th, 2008

I had one of those days where I should of crawled back into bed and stayed there…all day.

It started with forgetting that Kelly asked me to be the main host at Mom’s Morning Show today so she could take the day off. I forgot I had scheduled myself to have the day off because I made plans for 11am. So before the show started I was rushing around to cancel plans, open up the chat room, get called into the show, etc. I felt rushed and discombobulated. But the show was fun and I enjoyed it. I survived it.

After that everything kind of fell apart. I dropped my blender on my bare toe and it hurt like a son of a gun! Then after I finished making my banana/strawberry smoothie I lifted the blender up to pour it into my glass and somehow some way I managed to drop it & the lid wasn’t on all the way. Damn you should of seen the mess that made! Then I cut my leg shaving. On the bright side, I did end up laughing at myself as I looked at all the strawberry/banana crap all over my kitchen wall & cupboards that I didn’t get cleaned up like I thought I did. (more…)
