Misc. going on....

Last night Jaige and I went to a friends for dinner. Belly protruding, outside of its norm from the healthy intake we then we packed into the car. Yup, a car...no bus (SMILE) to see the Banff Mountain Film Festival.(watch intro. video) Note to self...take anxiety meds before going to see again. Fingers gripping the seat,Wow. This is a must see if you like watching death defying almost un-human like talents. (Ex.mountain climbing, kayaking, base jumping...) In a way, it is like watching Planet Earth and Ripley's Believe it or Not together. Feeling somewhat motivated by their super strength, but mostly tired I heaved myself on to my bed and tried to write. To my despair all the talent on screen zapped mine. I challenged myself (and my husband) to come up with a list of "I'm damn good at....". Is it o.k. if I am just good at something? If you could be damn good at something what would it be? While I worked on my list I fell asleep. ZZZzzzzz.

Morning...next thought-


CLICK HERE Back by popular demand: Mamarazzi's Favorite Things Swap!! Umm, I like popular demand things, so I'm joining in. I'll let you know how it goes.

Another Random-ness...
Yup, once again I have successful found another person who is talented, nice and smart. It just so happens she recently started her own blog and is having a giveaway. Go on over to Mmmmmm...Smell this! say "hello" and sign up to win the really cool gift basket. I'm seriously thinking we...ooops you should consider sharing if you win. This is a great giveaway.

11:19 a.m.- My mind is in second place at the Indy.500 (lap 419). I just realized that I am driving the wrong way on the track. I have that "what direction" to go in first feeling. Oh, did I mention that my feet have been hobbled? This is the reason my body still lays in bed. Yes, this morning I am a complete mess. Time to put my tennis shoe on. For some reason, when I put them on I am productive and I need to be productive this afternoon. Off I go....

One more thing, last one I promise....
I've been thinking about my heart shaped phobia. It's a little like embroidered sweatshirts with kittens, ponies or flowers. Not so much fun, but you (might) wear it out of love for the person who gave it to you. Seriously, if a niece or nephew gave me one (don't encourage them siblings) I would totally wear it.
I am not going to wear heart jewelry...I am however going to make fun heart cookies or a cake or a heart shaped hamburger for my hubby. In fact I am going to go heart crazy. Documentation to follow. CLICK HERE to understand what I am talking about and to participate in my GIFT-A-WAY

I am not a big fan of the death defying acts! I sure don't like to watch them with my salivating teenage sons.
