Michael Jackson Memorial Service

Today I cried more than I have in a while. I sat in front of my tv, just like millions of other people, and watched as friends and family said goodbye to a legend. There were many kind words and performances by Mariah Carey, Jennifer Hudson, Usher, Stevie Wonder, Berry Gordy, Lionel Ritchie, Smokey Robinson, and the most touching of all his 11 year old daughter, Paris. I started bawling when she spoke. She said Michael "has been the best father you could ever imagine." She was choking back tears, but also managed to say "and I just wanted to say I love him so much." I'm tearing up just thinking about it. It was so sad and sweet, and definitely the most emotional moment of the service. If you missed the memorial today, definitely check out some of the videos here, today was a day that will be talked about for years to come.

What a Sad Week!

Ok...this week was not a good week for celebrities! Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, and now I just heard this morning that Billy Mays died. He was only 50 too! You all should know who Billy Mays is...he's the infomercial pitchman for everything! OxiClean, Mighty Putty...all that stuff....He's the one that likes to YELL EVERYTHING!!!!!! LOL! I'm so sad....this is just not a good week... Billy Mays will be missed greatly!

Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, A Sad Day...

Today we have lost to Hollywood legends.....Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson. Farrah was just 62 and Michael only 50. I am still in shock and am so sad. These two people were icons and to lose them in the same day is just shocking.....I have no other words....They will be greatly missed. Their families will be in my thoughts and prayers....

3 New Little Ones

These little guys are the newest addition to our little family. Aren't they cute! Yes, they are rats, but cute rats!! lol! They are the sweetest little guys, and everyone just loves them, especially the dog....she is rat obsessed!!! I think she might need medication or something...lol!

Super Excited!!!

Right now I am posting from my brand new laptop...yay!!!! I have been without one for a few weeks now and it has been the hardest few weeks of my life. Ok that might be a slight exaggeration but it's darn close..lol!

Anyway tonight my hubby surprised me by taking me to get a new one. I love it!! It a newer version of my old one, an HP. I pinkie swear that I won't break this one Honey...lol!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Here's my public service announcement for everyone...Don't leave your laptop balancing precariously on the edge of a couch....It's not a good idea...lol!

Wow!!!

This is just amazing! Such a shocker and a tearjerker...lol!!! I love it and had to share! I was going to embed the video, but they have disabled embedding for some reason. You have to go check this out. This is a video with a lady named Susan Boyle on Britains Got Talent. She was laughed at, at first, and then she showed them....so good!!!!

Hoppy Easter Everyone!!

Did that rascally rabbit visit your house last night? Did he bring your kids way too much candy? He did ours! I'm going to have to have a talk with him...lol! I hope everyone is having a great Easter and enjoying the day by spending time with your family. That's what we are doing. My mom is making a delicious ham dinner with blueberry cheesecake for dessert...mmmm.... So enjoy the day, eat candy, eat dinner, and then take a nap...that' s what I'm going to do...lol!

Back From Vacation

Well for the last two weeks we've been on vacation. We just got back on Saturday. It was so much fun. A little tiring, but fun..lol! We went to the beach, on a dolphin cruise, and spent endless hours playing the Wii. There were countless games of golf, bowling, and Mario Kart, and of course a ton of yelling and making jokes about each other....lol! All in good fun though..lol!

Anyways, we are back and hopefully I will be posting more often. Things are still a little hectic around here, but hopefully they will calm down soon. If they don't I might need another vacation...lol!

Updates..

Well the last few weeks have flown by pretty quick. I can't believe that we are already a week into March. They say time flies when you're having fun, but I really haven't' had that much fun...lol! So I don't know if I believe that or not..

I've been busy blogging, doing some design work, and the last few days being sick. I've made two trips to the ER, but I'm finally feeling better. The doctors said I was dehydrated, had a slight UTI, bladder spasms and had possible kidney stones. No kidney stones showed on the cat scan that I had, but the doctor said they might just be too small to see or more like a mucous. Ewwww! So, I don't know, all I do know is that it hurt like hell..lol! So my words of wisdom for today are DRINK YOUR WATER! Drink your water and drink lots of it. That's what I'm doing right now...lol! Oh and our vacation is down to about two weeks away..Yay!

A Little Bit of This and That...

If you're a regular reader you may have noticed that my blog has a brand new look. I am really liking it. I worked on it yesterday afternoon and I am pretty pleased with the results. I've decided to give all my blogs a little blog makeover...lol! It will probably take me a week or so to get them all done..that will teach me for having so many blogs..lol! If you need a new blog header done...just look me up at Designed by Jen.

Our vacation is a month away and I'm getting anxious already...lol! The last couple weeks I've been buying a few things here and there for the trip, mostly clothes for the kids. I still need to buy myself a couple new pairs of jeans and a few shirts. We get our tax refund next Friday, so hopefully I'll be able to get my new stuff then. I also want to get my hair cut and colored, and of course....pay bills..ugh!

In celebrity news...Can you believe the whole Chris Brown/Rihanna thing? The night of the Grammy's they were no-shows and it was later revealed that Chris Brown beat up Rihanna. Today a photo was leaked to the media, and it shows Rihanna with cuts on her face and a bloody lip. So sad! I feel so bad for her, and I hope that his career is over! He deserves it. Violence is NOT the answer people!!

I can't believe that it's almost March already. It seems like just yesterday it was New Year's...lol! I guess time flies when you're having fun.. or...sitting on your butt on the couch...lol!!
