Observations And What Not Of 2011

Hello, Happy New Year! As this year washes away, I thought I would reflect on some it's highlights, and while I'm at it, poke some fun at them too! I can't help it, it's just too good of an opportunity to pass up.

What surprised me about the Divorce is
that it took 72 days to happen, and he
wasn't the one who filed first!! This
guy IMO, was obviously whipped, I think
eventually he would have snapped out of
it and ran far, far away from her and her
family, if they are the way they are on TV
imagine how worse they must be when the
Camera's are off, it's got to be to
overbearing for anyone!


But then again "nothing compares" to the
length of Sinead's wedded bliss in 2011!

The more I saw of Newt's wife in 2011
the more I was convinced that she is one
of those new Japanese Robots that are
Human like. Between her facial expressions
and her hair that never moves, I mean really
who has hair that never moves? Robot's do
that's who LOL!


Herman Cain aka The Pizza Pervert, We saw
your true Dog shining through, so it was
Bye, Bye for you!


Justice? Some

For Caylee None!


Indeed Hell On Earth!

Hell Well Deserved!


The poor Red Sox's crashed and burned
Finally for the Bruins, after 39 years, A Stanley Cup earned

Gig Up Whitey, now you have to sit
in a cell down the street from me
in a Diapie, Boo Fricken Hoo for you!


In 2011 LMFAO's Party Anthem was way
overplayed, Happy I would be, if in
2012 this talentless group would just
go away!

Welcome Home Troops

Hello, I hope your all doing well and enjoyed your Holiday. I enjoyed mine and I'll share some pictures soon. Today I wanted to share this Video I made to say Welcome Home to the troops that fought so bravely over the past 9 years for peace and freedom in Iraq. No matter what our views are on the war, they don't really matter now, because what's done is done. The Iraqi people still have many challenges ahead of them, but you cannot deny that they are in a better place today, especially the Women and Children, thanks to all of the soldiers. So Welcome Home troops, job well done IMO, Thank you for serving our Country. Hopefully this coming year, more countries will be on board the "Peace Train" as well!

Bless yourself

If the day and night be such that you greet them with joy, and life emits a fragrance like flowers and sweet-scented herbs, is more elastic, more immortal - that is your success.  All nature is your congratulation, and you have cause momentarily to bless yourself.

Pleasure is spread

Pleasure is spread through the earth.In stray gifts to be claimed by whoever shall find.

Good Marriage

There is no more lovely, friendly and charming relationship, communion or company than a good marriage.

You know you're in love

You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.

Footprints on our hearts

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for a while and leave footprints on our hearts. And we are never, ever the same.

Comfortable Transformations

Hello, Have you ever suddenly noticed a transformation within yourself? Then you, like me, must of been following these steps without realizing it. I know I have undergone some personal changes during the past 18 months, which I can honestly say have led to overall wellness. I think the key is getting comfortable with ourselves, which is a big step in itself, and then all potential is possible. If you are looking to make changes within yourself, or in your life, then take in these simple words of wisdom, and watch the transformations unfold.

Wellness isn’t about deprivation
and it’s not about perfection,
It is about pointing yourself
in the direction of growth,
Training yourself to get comfortable
with your highest potential, and then
taking small steps to support that shift
It’s about showing up for yourself,
day by day, and then one day finding
that you’ve undergone a transformation....

True Love

However rare true love may be, it is less so than true friendship.

A Soul Mate Redefined

Hello, I think Elizabeth Gilbert's defintion of a soul mate is perfectly redefined. Sometimes what we think we need in another person to complete us, and what we truly need are two different things. Consider yourself lucky if you do get a soul mate in life that you truly need. I know now that I was lucky enough to get a true soul mate who did all of these things for me and then some.

SNL Classics

Hello, Happy Saturday, Time to kick back and relax, unless your running around doing last minute Christmas shopping! I will be getting ready for a Holiday dinner this Sunday because my family has different plans for Christmas so we have to divide up the get together's over the next couple of weekends. So while I'm off cooking and enjoying my family time, I hope enjoy these SNL clips, two of them are my all time favorites, now considered classics.

If Roses Grow

Hello, I came across this saying a friend posted in memory of her mother at Christmas and had to share it with all of you. I edited it for both of my Parents. This time of year is, at times, still hard for me, as I am sure it is for all of you who have lost loved ones. It has been 3 yrs since my mother passed, and although I have come to accept it, and the pain has eased, sometimes I think my grief is still a bit on the surface and it comes upon me when I least expect it. The obvious reason is the loss of traditions and norms that you share with your loved ones for so many years, and then like that, they're gone. I've learned that loss can be on many levels. I remember my Mother always looking so forward to our Holiday family gatherings. Even though in her elderly years she lived on small means with her disability check, she still managed to always have something to give her 6 children and 10 grandchildren. She always had my sister take her to do her Christmas shopping because they were one in the same, they could shop for hours and look for the bargains, not me! She would always buy a new sweater or blouse to wear on Christmas day and show me ahead of time. She would then go out and get her hair done. And until now I never realized how much I would miss the way she prepared for the Holidays. How I miss that she was really showing us how much it meant to her to just be with all of her grown children and grandchildren, because even though she saw us all throughout the year, it was not that often that we would all be together. My Father left us to early, I was only 23 when he passed, but I remember he always provided all six of his children with a great Christmas, many special memories as well. How I miss their sweet souls, miss them oh so much. So yes, Lord, this Christmas place some roses in my Mother and Father's arms and tell them they're from me, and whisper in their ear that I was so blessed they were here for me.

Mix The Bourgeoisie And The Rebels

Hello, Happy Music Monday! I am excited that Madonna will be doing the half time show at this years Superbowl. Hopefully I will also be watching my favorite football team The Patriots as well. I will get to watch the Patriots live on Christmas Eve because Christa and Dana got Pete and I tickets to the game that day as a Christmas gift, Love it! I have seen Madonna live 3 times and she is amazing. So I'm sure the half time show is going to be, especially with the help of the Cirque du Soleil performers. She can sing live while doing deep knee bends, oh ya, in her late 40's and early 50's, never mind just dance! Brittany and most of the girls half her age have to lip sync while they perform. So for this Music Monday I chose her Music performance from the Drowned World Tour to celebrate her upcoming Super Bowl performance. I still have the confetti she dropped at the end of this song, along with the ticket as a memento from the show :) She has earned the title of Queen in my opinion. Imagine how boring Pop Music would have been the past 28 years without her. I'm glad she has pushed the envelope and opened doors for women where no one else had the courage to do so. That is what I admire the most about her. I hope she keeps going as long as she can and may her music continue to mix the bourgeoisie and the rebels!

Wonder and Magic

Hello, Happy Friday! My grandchildren, Briana and Christopher went to a Christmas party on my son in laws side of the family last weekend. Their Aunt Sarah took these pictures, and as always she shares them with me when I am not there. I think she did a great job because she caught the wonder and magic of Briana's expression as Santa walked in the room surprising all the kids! Poor Christopher though, he was so scared of Santa, he just shook the whole time, so needless to say he didn't last to long on his lap! I thought this video below captures perfectly what some kids go through when they have to approach this big, Mysterious Man named Santa. I mean think about it, we tell them that he has been watching them to see whether or not they have been good or bad, so what if they feel they have been bad, then they have to face him, Yikes! But no, I'm sure it doesn't add to their anxiety, no not at all LOL!

Monsters

Hello, Watching the news today literally made my stomach sick. Jerry Sandusky was arrested for a second time on allegations of sexual abuse, just as one of his victims spoke out about his screams for help from this monsters basement that went unheard. Then they broke the news that Ryan Brunn was arrested for the murder and sexual assault of this precious little 7 yr old girl named Jorelys. Jorleys was abducted from her own playground at her apartment building while her babysitter ran in to the building for one minute to get her coat. Her mother worked nights and had to sleep for a little while during the day. It makes me so sick that these men, (or monsters as I view them, because they just can't really be a human being in the sense that I know human beings,) can torture an innocent child the way they do. There is no way that I will ever be able to wrap my mind around this sickness Pedophilia, and as an advocate for the mentally ill, I'm able to wrap my mind around a lot. I know 99 percent of you feel the same. This is something I think we can only pray away, because it is an evil beyond us, no doubt about it. So tonight I light a virtual candle in memory of this Little Angel and for all the innocent children who have been victims of these monsters.
