And the winner is...

Jenny Durtschi! I used the random number selector from random.org to select a number between 1 and 9 (because that is how many true entries there were) and the random number was 9! Congratulations, Jenny, and to everyone who entered because you will all benefit from the CD that I will be making!

Jenny's idea was to download the top song of every year since 1977 and then burn it to a CD and send it out to 30 friends. 30 songs for 30 friends. I don't know if I have 30 friends so it should be interesting! I loved the other ideas though so thank you everyone!


Love,

me :)

Taking Suggestions...

Today is my last day being 30. I think I should somehow celebrate that but I'm not entirely sure. Soooo.... I want your suggestions and then I will choose something from your list (using a random selector) and document it with pictures and a subsequent post. Please, don't make me spend a thousand dollars and get a tattoo. If you comment is inappropriate, it will not be chosen. :)

Thanks for playing!

Breakfast at my house

Justis: Why did the chicken cross the road?
Nia: I don't know.
Justis: To buy a toy!

Nia: Why did the cow cross the road?
Justis: I don't know.
Nia: To buy some food!

Justis: Why did the plant cross the road?
Nia: I don't know.
Justis: To buy a plant!
(Nia erupts into a hyena type laughter at this point.)

Justis: Why did the teeth cross the road?
Nia: I don't know.
Justis: To buy an eye!

They just haven't fully grasped the concept of what makes a joke funny. :) Gotta love jokes by kids. :)

Update on my weight

You may have recalled a post a while back about my frustration with my weight. I am happy to say that since then, both my husband and I have joined LA Weightloss to help us facilitate becoming healthier and loosing weight.

I have lost 7 pounds! I am so excited about that! It's not always easy making the right choices (i.e. no Fruit Loops for breakfast) but I am pleased with my progress. The thing I really like about our program is that it is well balanced and there is accountability... I go in 2-3 weeks and get weighed and talk about my successes, failures, issues, etc.

Anyway, I am on my way to loosing all that stupid weight I put on. :)

What do you call it?

I need a name for those days when I feel PMSy but technically am not because I am completely missing all those innards.

I feel cranky, grumpy, memosa (it's portuguese), and all around not happy. To sum it up, I feel very PMSy without the cramps (thank heavens for that). :)

I am taking suggestions.

2008 Fall Fashion Show

Growing up, we had a tradition before school started... a Fashion Show. Since Nia started school last year, I have carried on that tradition. So without further adieu, here is our fashion show we had on Sunday night...
