Guilty Pleasure ...

I have told so many friends about this in the last few days that I figured I should just post it. For all those Mormon girls out there (especially those who have lived in the Provo bubble) here is a hilarious new blog to check out. It is a fake blog that some brilliant sister has put together ... it cracks me up!

Judy Jetson Envy ...

Remember on the Jetsons' how Judy had that cool closet contraption that she would just ride a moving walkway through and it would get her dressed, and do her hair and makeup?

Yeah, I need that.

I HATE doing my hair! It takes forever and the hair dryer makes me hot .... and it just gets annoying. Don't get me wrong. I like to look presentable and I do my hair. But I grumble about it the whole time.

Luckily, I have the kind of hair that cannot be washed everyday. So I only have to do extensive blow drying every 2-3 days.

Now for my second problem. This women has stolen my 3rd day hair do.

(except mine looks a lot less flight attendant-ish)

I don't want to be known as the girl who wears "the Palin"! 

Where's Judy Jetson and her closet when you need them?

While I'm On The Subject ...

While I'm on the subject of childhood shows here are a few that I miss ...

I LOVED Vicki ! Remember their crazy red headed neighbor?


I always wished I could freeze time ...



I had a HUGE crush on Wesley, and always wished we had a butler.

Remember when Webster burned his house down by playing with his chemistry set in the closet? Tragedy! I also always wanted a dumb waiter to ride in ...

The Years Have Not Been Good ...

Who is this? Why do I have it on my blog? 

Take a closer look peeps ...

It is none other then ZACH MORRIS!!!

What has happened to him? What has happened to his hair?!!

Maybe he is trying to go under cover as Sully from "Dr.Quinn Medicine Woman",

but it is not working. 

SO SAD!!!

I'm very disappointed. Where is Lisa to tell him that this is not the look for him?

I miss this Zach ...

And I'll post this ... because LBH (let's be honest) you know you still quote this to yourself.

 

Rainy Days and Mondays ...

Nothing is better than waking up to a rainy day! Especially a rainy day that I don't have to go to work. I immediately got up and opened all my windows and doors. I LOVE the smell of rain! I made a bowl of hot cracked wheat cereal for breakfast then sat on my porch and watched the rain as I ate (I'm sure the neighbors think I am crazy.). I cleaned the kitchen as I listened to the rain and the thunder. Then I jumped in my car and took Doris Day (the name of my car) out for a spin in the rain. I drove to my favorite park, parked, turned the car off and settled in to read (just for you Summer!) and listen to the rain pound on the roof and windows. I LOVE the rain!

But the rain eventually began to subside, and I began to remember that back home there are floors to be vacuumed, calls to be returned, loads of laundry to be folded, and toilets to be scrubbed. So it is back to the daily grind for me, but I'm glad I had a few hours with the rain!

Shout Out ...

On Friday I went to the medical plaza to get my blood drawn (which I do monthly). I always pass this older (in her 70's) woman sitting at her desk in the corner of the little lobby. Last month when I passed I couldn't help but smile when I realized she was reading Twilight. Friday I couldn't help but say something when I saw she had an 8 x 10 glossy of Harrison Ford framed on her desk! I said "I like your picture." She looked up, smiled, and said "I need something to look at while I sit here all day."Shelly, you're my kind of gal!
