Jumbled Mind
So much is going through my mind! So many things I want to post about! I just finished eating a bowl of cornflakes for dinner, have my feet propped up on the coffee table {which is hardly used for anything other than a clutter collector} while watching House Hunters... I've been in love with the idea of owning my own home - paying rent to myself is a grand thought to me lately. So Douglas and I have seriously started thinking about moving. Nothing too serious just looking around and seeing what's what and getting my hopes up {I shouldn't do that to myself, but I always do}.
I have found myself befriending people that I don't even know, finding way cool blogs for house design {see above if confused}, enjoying other peoples lives far more than I should - but I guess that's what happens when you engross yourself into the blogging world. But I love it! I know I've said it a bazillion times - but it's true. I feel like I get to know these people and it's always great to see such good people in the world especially when you live in an area where you don't get to see the good in people a lot of the time {don't get scared, I just live in a really busy place where people don't tend to see the people around them}. I find the story of MckMama quite fascinating and now I feel a part of the MckFamily {along with millions of other peoples around the world} - her children are adorable and Stellans story is amazing, what a strong little boy.
Onto a totally off the wall topic: American Idol. Have I ever posted about AI? No, probably not. But there is a first time for everything right? My point in doing this mainly is to let the world know my favorite this season is: Allison Iraheta. I love this girl - her voice is amazing. Maybe I'm just drawn to the P!nk, Stevie Nicks raspy strong voice. But she is {insert positive attitude here}. I was happy to see her in the top two this week instead of the bottom 3. My next pick would have to be Kris Allen. Well I'm not really a fan of Danny Gokey or Adam Lambert {I know most of the world is screaming at me right now, but it's true} he's talented and has a good voice just too... I don't know the word, I just don't like him very much.
Cleaning.... gah cleaning. Is anyone else as annoyed with this chore that never goes away? I'm always cleaning something {maybe it's my OCD no I'm not just saying it I really do have it, at least everyone tells me I do} but it never stops, always cleaning. So I've adapted the Real Simple Periodic Table of Cleaning to my life. I'm starting May 1 - which is tomorrow, why tomorrow not today? I don't feel like it today, there's always tomorrow, right? I'll let you know how this goes. As far as the schedule is going from last post - it's going well, except I have been so tired lately that I have been doing the running in the evening and pilates stretches in the morning.
My last topic for the night is everyones obsession with comparing Harry Potter to Twilight this little Harry vs. Edward feud is absurd {to put it lightly}. You can't compare the two - Wizards and Vampires cannot be compared I'm sorry can't do it, isn't possible, just morally wrong. Okay, maybe not morally wrong but really people? Come on now. {Even if you could we all know that Edward would kick Harrys heiny}, that's not comparing that's being realistic and honest.

Little Here Little There
I was doing so well at updating and well.... life took control for a while, what can you do? I'm now sitting at my parents in Nowhere, Nevada enjoying the sound of the stove heating the room and seeing the spectacular view of the mountains from the large windows on the back of the house. Minnie is curled up next to me finally glad to have some quiet without Boog & Bud running around rough housing and being loud. It's so cold here - well compared to where I live in the West Coast Sunshine state, it is. In a couple of hours Boog will drive herself home from school and then we'll go pick Bud up and go to town.
I went and saw Twilight on Saturday, after reading the book straight from 1pm - 11pm (still need to finish a little less than a quarter) I'm in love. I've officially become a "TWERD". I'm in love with the book *I can't wait until I can start reading it again*! I enjoyed the movie *I want to own it*. If you knew me about a year and a half ago when Twilight started becoming big, I refused to read it. I didn't want any part in the Twilight saga, nope not me - I thought people were crazy and obsessed *don't get me wrong they still are* but I'm part of it. I'm coming out of my Twilight closet.
So today in town I will be picking up the next book in the series, ingredients for my cheesecake, and whatever the siblings want. *Maybe not whatever they want*
Until next time (hopefully just tomorrow) I'll be enjoying a cup of steaming herbal tea.

A New Habit For Me
I learned about this link - NaBloPoMo from this wonderful blog, and decided to take up the challenge. I want to write about my day, maybe just a sentence or maybe a novel but I want to document my life and the little blessings that happen each day. Today Saturday was a great day in itself.
It started with Snow White, Cinderella, and myself. (Excuse the nick names just want my friends' privacy to be protected. I'm sure you understand.) We went to the temple that morning, beforehand we stopped off at the church bookstore where I purchased my 2009 calendar for the year, I have way too many calenders but none the less I love em and can't get enough. The we proceeded to the temple and it was amazing to go with them they are wonderful women and I'm thankful to have them as friends. Then we went to lunch at Chilis then off to Emeryville we went to go to the bookstore and to Target to find the Wizard of Oz (I still can't believe I don't own my own copy). It was raining, and eventually I had my jeans wet up to my knees from pouncing through water puddles, it was great fun.
I learned on the way there that my mom had purchased me a ticket to go to a movie with her and boog (the loving sister) the day after Thanksgiving. It was this information that caused me to hyper-ventilate, as I have not been wanting to read this book,
(if you know me, if you don't now you do, I have to read a book before seeing a movie that it's based off of even if it something small and silly ie Holes)
Twilight. I didn't want to read it I didn't want to have any part of it until further down the road when it wasn't such a HUGE deal to read these books. Well, now I've fallen. And hopefully if I like the book Cinderella will fall with me as well...
The Wizard of Oz just so you know is out of print until around Thanksgiving sometime....
