this is me now

8.12.2008

back to the world according to me.....

i have lost sight----maybe life is too good---but my recent posts have not been nearly as cynical, ascerbic, sarcastic and 'this is the way it is' enough---so hear goes---lets try to twist things back to straight...
  • i have two grandkids on the way-----one is 1200 miles away and the other is 300 miles! and these births are distracting me from maybe auditioning again for an Artisan show---dagnabit.
  • i have new floors---gorgeous---but now my living room carpet is looking dingier than ever! and do i like my grayish walls---nay---love my gray walls enough to use said color in my living room? and can i have beige/sand walls in one room with gray walls in the next?
  • where do i put my maps of the world with my push-pins denoting LDS temples? I cant cover my new gray walls.

  • i am travelling with dancingmoose and loving it....but i may miss the birth of my first grandchild cause i have a show on the 8th of november and one on the 14th!

  • had lovely vacations this year----nauvoo/freeport, san antonio weekend, dave & ace on high adventure---but none of these involved a cruise or mickey mouse ears.
  • lyric cleaned her room....and lyric is leaving me....but then i get to re-do her room---but she is still leaving me....who will i live vicariously thru now?

  • waitin on a woman---a country western song i like---and love the video.

  • i cant find which marching band did P.M.'s Love Theme from Love Actually....and was it even Ronald Reagan High School that performed it?

  • i love the olympics----not the pomp and certainly not the circumstance---but the sports-----hence, i spend way too much time watching fencing, badminton, women's weightlifting---really? we love china right now---but it will be the evil empire again right after....and why am i always looking to see if that athlete is really happy because he won or because now his government wont send him to Siberia for losing!

  • i'm coloring my hair tonight---reddish i think----time again---its been too long---but why cant i find a nice cotton-candy pink?

Oh my, I always think the same thing when one of their athletes win! "Woohoo! I get to eat tonight!" :o)

Love the floor! And I love the Olympics, too--though, I'm watching swimming religiously.

WHOA! Your floor looks great! And I always wanted to dye my hair cotton candy pink to. We should do it together sometime!

The first Olympics I remember was 1984 which was boycotted by all the communist nations and then 1988 when things were just starting to crunble, so, yeah...definitely right there with you and Katie about wondering about the lives of the athletes from "less than free" nations.

I always liked the cotton-candy pink best .... your hair, I mean, not the walls. ;o) Yes, shale blue and gray can go together nicely if you use the color wheel to select the shades. Can't wait to come up and see everything you've been doing. Will it EVER stop feeling like a roasting oven in Texas?
