Just DANCE (dance, da-ance)

I was just sitting down for 30 seconds, and thinking:

"really, what do I have to complain about?"

Seriously...

I have a husband who: is pretty danged handsome, works hard, brings home the bacon (in more ways than one... like, literally: brings home dead pigs), doesn't get ALL bend out of shape when the laundry ain't done or the house ain't perfect (or my grammar AIN'T fantastic), and he truly loves me.

I have a kid who: is pretty danged cute, gives me kisses all the time (just don't mind the slobber), wants me to hold her a lot, follows me around the house (even bangs on the bathroom door the ENTIRE time I am doing my business), and truly loves me.

I have me: who is pretty danged adorable, lots of ideas running through my brain, and God truly loves me.

I have friends, (yay for Yvonne and her 5am running wake-up calls), family who are ku-koo but really help each other out, and my health: heck, I have enough time, energy, and breath to write this silly little blog that no-one really reads but me!

Life is Good.

And, that's why, when there is music playing - just follow this little munchkin's lead &

JUST DANCE (oh, o-oh, just dance - dance - dance)  

**think Lady GaGa here, people***

Have a GROOVY day,

SW

 

TA-DA!

My new hair:

It is pretty short!

And super blonde!

And I totally love it!

Please remind me that this hair-do is what I pre-planned, researched, took out an opinion poll on, and thought would be the bomb....

when tomorrow

I can't get it to look remotely like this.

And it is all fluffy.

And it will not fit into a ponytail.

Just remind me that it totally looked adorable when I left the salon.

OK?

Love, 

SW

and posted to youtube:

It is weird, because - you know that part of the show when he does a

helicopter lesson and talks from the cockpit? - well, of course you

can hear his voice, which is cool/sad/etc...

My response to the challenge

Yeah, i know.  Not really the most uplifting page. 

But one I really needed to get done for my own sanity.

I still have more journaling I will pump out on another page regarding this whole tumultuous time surrounding the sudden death of my beloved father.  (had a tough morning watching the tribute video again)

In other news...

here is my scrapbook page in the Cousin Scrapbooking Challenge:

But, 

I need help.

Input.

Should the photo side be on the left or the right?

Photos on left.

Well?  What do you choose?  I need your help!

Peace & love,
