Went to the theater in Oak Ridge today and watched the new Transformers movie. It was enjoyable but very very long. Lots of intense action. There weren’t any slow parts in this movie. They could have made the story shorter if they had cut out some of the erroneous stuff that wasn’t necessary. Not sure if this movie was acceptable for younger children to watch. Lots of discussion about the male anatomy. I had to explain a few things to my 9 year old.

Stephanie received her acceptance letter from Lincoln Memorial University today. She has been accepted to nursing school. yeah!! Stephanie. I have to put a $100 check in the mail on Monday to reserve her spot.

Went to see my brother in law in the Dragon boat races today. Unfortunately, we arrived only minutes after his race had ended. His team lost. Stephanie took a couple of pictures when we arrived. I forgot to bring my camera.

To all family and friends

I am throwing a virtual baby shower for my daughter Heather. She lives far away in Arizona. This makes me sad. I wish she was closer. I want to touch her pregnant belly so very badly.

Heather is having a baby boy. I don’t have the words to express how excited I am feeling.  The baby is due in October.  For family and friends who wish to participate in the virtual baby shower for my soon to be grandson “Hayden” , Heather and Brian’s Baby R Us registry number is 94291847

The below picture is the most recent belly picture from Heather so that we can follow her pregnancy.

LOL, I received a gift card from Itunes on Mother’s Day. I held onto the gift card for a couple of weeks. I didn’t know what to download. I thought long and hard about the music I wanted. Spending the $25 dollars was easy once I got started. I spent the $25 dollars plus $25 dollars more. Someone that loves me needs to take my visa debit card away before I spend anymore money on music. Itunes is addicting. I have no control. Stop me now.  :)

Dearest Kris,

Congratulations on winning American Idol. You should be very proud of yourself. It was a win well deserved. The internet is a buzz with comparing you to Adam. He was a worthy talented apponent. Adam has a very unique style. His style isn’t better than yours…it’s just different, in a flamboyount loud kind of way. I think the both of you bring something worthwhile and extraordinary to the world of music.  Seize the day. Hold your head up and be proud of what you have achieved. The people voted and you won.

Go forth and make your music.

The following was copied directly from “Stephanie’s Live Journal

 

-My grandpa had surgery yesterday, was released today. He had prostate cancer and had it removed. He’s apparently doing really well and jokingly complaining about how he’s now missing body parts.

-My gramma had surgery today and I was at the hospital all day long with my dad, aunt, uncle and later my mom. She had 3 stints put in, in an artery in her heart because she had some clogging and we hope it will help her with her breathing issues.

My back is sore from standing for so long lol. To entertain ourselves for all those hours me, my aunt and uncle were playing this stupid puzzle game on the DS. We were literally working on it for like 5 hours, the same puzzle! To solve it you had all these pegs on the screen and you had to make 7 squares using these pegs. You could only use each peg once and we knew all the squares were diagonal squares except for one..so it was really hard. My uncle was setting up tacks in the recovery room in the same design as on the DS game, still trying to solve it.

We didnt figure it out 8(

I went through a frappuccino, a tea, a dr pepper and a starbucks caramel mocha frappuccino..actually I didnt drink the whole dr pepper I still have it. Im savoring it.

and then for lunch I had something called..Petro’s. Id never heard of it but it was really good. Its nearly exactly what I was looking for for so long and I didnt even know it existed so close by. It was pretty much Frito pie. I remember being in elementary school and loving Frito Pie days..Id been wanting to have Frito pie forever, for dinner, but never knew how to make it right and Petro’s was pretty much it but with a slightly more taco-ish type feel. But it was so good.

So that was my entire day. Spent at a hospital. This weekend I may end up going to Nashville to visit my grandpa. I dont know if Im really in the mood to go. I was gonna go if nobody else was cause I wouldnt want my mom to be lonely but it looks like the whole families going so I might sit here instead and work on my self portrait I was supposed to send in to 3dtotal and they probably think Im the worst artist to work with ever.

Need to make Daisy a vet appointment. Dad wants us to take her to a different hospital. She’s totally broken out and miserable and itchy and naked. I feel so bad for her. Moms concerned about her wait also because Ms. Daisy is skinny skinny.

After months of anticipation, I went to see Star Trek yesterday. It was a wonderful movie. I left the movie theater feeling very satisfied and wanting to see it again. I think everyone was beautifully cast. I enjoyed the story line. I quote from my daughter Stephanie’s livejournal “Chris Pine brought Kirk’s sexy back”"

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms of the world.

I love the rain but I’m thinking we have probably had enough. I’ve been drinking coffee all morning and watching TV. There isn’t a lot on during the daytime that interest me and everything keeps being interrupted by storm updates. I did the dishes between weather updates. I’m thinking about doing the laundry next and perhaps mopping the kitchen floor. Morgan was sad this morning. Today was suppose to be her field trip day at school. The field trip will be a waste of time if it’s raining.
