Where is My Hairbrush?

Last Friday, I attended a funeral of a precious 4 year old, Tyler Scott Mitchell. He had a short life on this earth, but what an inspiration he was to those he touched. I never got the privilege of getting to know him, but felt as if I did through the pics and updates his grandmother sent me over the years.

They played his favorite song at the funeral with a video clip of pics of his life. It was so sweet ... so ... This is for Tyler ...

... For Your Age

When did it happen? I can remember the days when I was that cute little blonde girl with the pony tail. Then I went through the horrible Junior High years, with the Captain Kangaroo Bunny Rabbit glasses ... The not so lovely years ... argh! Then somewhere between High school and my 20's I blossomed. I had a few good years when I got looks and whistles ... was even called "hot" a few times. :) Then one day I got "ma'amed" by a young man. I should have know something was up!

Now instead of getting whistles while walking through the grocery store parking lot, I can barely get my groceries taken out to my car. I have become invisible! I don't remember when that happened. Did I wake up one morning and go from "hot" to "Looks good for her age?" I don't remember that happening ...

It was confirmed that the transformation had truly taken place when one day in my kitchen my daughter, her boyfriend and I were talking ... I don't remember what I said but his comment was "You're not that bad." I started laughing so hard I was crying! He thought he had hurt my feelings and kept trying to make it better. He then said, "You looked good, back in the day!" I laughed even harder and told him he just needed to stop! :)

I guess the next phase of my life is "Don't she look natural!"

Favorite Movie Lines

I may lose friends after admitting this and to show you just how warped my mind is ... here are a few of my all-time favorite movie lines ...

“I like your sleeves. They’re real big”
“I want that”
Napoleon Dynamite (2004)

“The only thing that separates us from the animals is our ability to accessorize”
Steel Magnolias (1989)


“I like that boulder. That’s a nice boulder”
“Everybody like parfait”
Shrek (2001)


“…And we wuz banned from the Woolworth. Wuz it just the local branch, or all of ‘em?”
"We ... thought .... you .... wuz ... a ... toad!"
O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000)


"Larry is not white. Larry is clear."
Space Jam (1996)

I'm sure I'll think of more soon!

Ear Worm

I don't know if you've ever heard of a Ear Worm, but that is a song you get in your head and can't get out ... Unfortunately another Veggie Tales song is stuck in my head ... Song of the Cebu (It's kind of like a cow) ...

Enjoy this Ear Worm!
