I saw you got lots a work done! I bet he is excited, this is a perfect age to be happy about the smallest stuff. Sheesh, I make a funny face at Alex (almost 3) and he could crack up for 10 minutes, telling me how it was so funny and I am so silly and and and... Colton is going to be a great three year old... that makes you a year older too, did you ever think about that?? LMAO LMAO LMAO

Hi Rp, and Start.

Yes. American idol was an excellent finish. I was worried the night before because the judges were praising the other David. Even though the other david just ruined the Imagine song. Brutalized it and yet the judges were kissing his young butt up and down.

12 million votes more for Cook, it was an awesome finish.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY COLTON.

I like both of them...
Joe... just cause you are a rocker, doesn't mean the sweet little guy couldn't have won;)

I like both too, I just thought Cook should win because he can go with any type of music ad make it his own... Archiletta can only do ballads well.

The whole show was great though. I think this was the best season


EDIT:: Can you tell that I am ignoring that old lady's comment about age?? Lmao

No, I hadn't noticed! ;)

I liked Archiletta! Or whatever his name was... is... oh gosh

Back for a minute. You guys have been busy. Hi RP, hi Joe, Hi Starty, Hi M, and Stringer, where's Stringer, I thought I heard his voice. ;)

Sorry, I have a child fighting sleep. Had to go duct tape him to the bed, lol. I'll catch all of you later... hugs!

Catch you later.

I have to do that too sometimes... I understand... Nighty night sweet Sunshine;)

RP, that's what leather tethers are for (kidding, really, kidding) :)

I have the same problem with my kids, especially now that the sun is out much longer. "Mommy, it's still light out, why do we have to go to bed?" (as they're rubbing their eyes). For goodness sake, it's 10pm, 7am comes early, go to SLEEP! :)

There is one advantage to the exterior window shades the germans have. You roll them down and the room is dark. I was actually thinking of importing them and starting my own company when I lived in Georgia because those summer nights crept into the windows and there was no way to stop it. They also have an advantage of preventing break-ins so I don't know why they have not become a security standard yet. Maybe attaching permanent storm-doors to the kid's window outside might wind up being a solution.

It's great for me too, especially when I want to take a nap at noon - keeps the noise outside too.

Night,night.

Good Friday morning everyone, I hope today brings you smiles and sunshine.

Yep, I thought it was smiley... :)

Morning all. Bah, I had another lousy nights sleep, this time it was because of my 13 year old dog, Indy. Indy has his days and night mixed up (just like a newborn baby) and decided that he needed to go outside at 2am, then eat, then get a rub down, then play. I am so tired right now, I need sleep! Sydney is home again, she still has a fever, and I'm not getting better either, no wonder, I can't sleep so this cold can sure hang on to my poor tired body. I'm going to go get some cheese to go with my wine. ;)

Hope everyone else is doing great. Chery, I love the blinds that the Germans have, you're right, they're great, but also expensive. One thing I miss when in Germany, the screen windows, open the windows in Germany and you let every little bug in to the house. I remember my Grandma's place, there were so many black flies. I was 14, slept like a baby, woke up and couldn't open my eyes, they were swollen shut from all the black fly bites. I miss Germany, especially the "slept like a baby" part. ;)

Alty, you need a nap today;)
