The X Factor

 I have been watching The X Factor from the beginning and I thought that this young girl had a voice that was indescribable. I was happy that she had made it through all these weeks. Until last week. I can't believe that she was eliminated. This girl is amazing. I like Marcus Canty but he has been at the bottom several times and I was so sure Rachel was going to make it. America let that girl down. I did vote for her. I can say at least I put my voice in..
Well I just had to voice my opinion about it all. I don't think we've heard the last of Rachel Crow though.

Reba"s Concert

I went to see Reba in concert and Eden's Edge, Steel Magnolia, James Otto and The Band Perry was also there. I really enjoyed myself. The last song that Reba sang was Fancy. A nice way to end the concert. I would go see her again.

Day For A Snowball

I went to the park yesterday with the kids and it was great. I decided since we were there we would get a snowball. I got Tiger's Blood. I sat on a bench by slide under the shade of a tree and it felt nice. It was breezy and not hot at all. I think everyone needs to go get a snowball because it sure is the weather for it.

The Nook Versus The Kindle

So I am asking for some help. I want your opinion on which is the best

Coconut Pie

My husband loves coconut pie and so after 15 years I finally made him one for his birthday.  I took this picture because I wanted to be able to remind him that i did make one. I may not ever make another one but he can remember what it looked like. I have to admit it doesn't look pretty but it did taste good.

Pirates of the Carribean

I went to see Pirates of the Carribean on Stranger Tides the other day with my daughters and grandson.
It was pretty good. Jack Sparrow is my favorite character and Johnny Depp is fantastic. The way it ended made me think that there will be another one. Even though Elizabeth and Will was not in it, it still had Captain Barbosa in it. If you haven't seen it I recommend that you do. There are a lot of good movies out now.
Well gotta go for now

Just Rambling

School is out and I am enjoying not having to get up at 6 am. I miss just picking up and going where I wanted. Now that I also have my 4 year old grandson it makes it a little difficult to go just whenever and wherever.
Well Scotty won the American Idol and I have to say that he has that great deep voice. And on Dancing with the Stars Hines and Kim won. I was rooting for them to win. I thought that he was a pretty good dancer. I was surprised that kirstie lasted as long as she did.

I saw this movie and it was pretty good. My daughter treated me to this for Mother's Day.

The next one to see is Pirates of the Carribean

Well going to go for now.

American Idol

If I had to choose between the contestants on this American Idol I would have a hard time choosing. They are all so good. Why don't you tell me who you would choose. I think Lauren has a fantastic voice. Give me your opinion.

Here I Am Again

Here I am again contemplating what it is I want out of life. I feel like there has to be more that life has to offer. I am unemployed and I stay at home with an allowance. I am used to having a paycheck and it is about to drive me crazy not having any money. I have a Down Syndrome daughter and it is very difficult finding someone who will watch her. i received a comment a while back from someone who was very nasty about handicapped children. It made me angry so I didn't post it. If you've never been around handicapped children you just don't know the unconditional love they give you.
Well enough about that
I hope everyone is having a good life. You know when I was younger I never even thought about the future and what I wanted to do. Now I find that I would love to travel and see different countries. I do not regret my life because I have four wonderful children, two grandsons and another one on the way.  I guess I am bored with nothing to do. Maybe I am feeling sorry for myself. I just feel like something is missing. Oh well maybe I will figure it out and then I can do something about.
I was separated a while back and I enjoyed being independant, come and go as I please, not to have to listen to anyone griping. Maybe I just miss that who knows.
I am going to go for now and I will talk to you later.

I'm Back

I'm finally back after being gone for so long. Let me fill you in on what has been happening since Iv'e been gone. I know that the last post stated that I was single. Weellll I'm not. My husband decided that he didn't like it too well without me. So I've decided to give him one more chance. You know like 1,2,3 and your out. Anyway we have been back together since January. Now my older son moved to New Orleans and got him a job over there. My younger son and I decided to go see him. I had brought my laptop with me and I was sick as a dog. We couldn't quite remember how to get to the street where needed to turn so my son saw a couple of people and decided to ask them. Well they said if we give them a ride to where they were heading which was on the way they would show us. My son said ok and I didn't feel too comfortable with it but I was trying to keep from being sick. I brought my purse up front with me but I left my laptop in the back. We got to where they wanted to be dropped off and they got out and I noticed my laptop was not there. My son got out and confronted them about it and needless to say they had a gun. I decided they could have my laptop. I could replace a computer but I could not replace a son. I got out of the car because I knew that my son would fight them if he had to but I didn't want him to. He wanted me to be safe and so he decided not to go for it. Sometimes as parents you have to put yourself in the way to keep your children safe. So I have been without a computer since mine was stolen but I do have my son alive. I have just now gotten another one. Oh by the way I am going to be a grandmother again by my younger son. I will now have 3 grandsons. Well enough for now. Talk to you later
