We had a budget meeting earlier. I only had to be there in name and presence. While there, of course I did some doodling. The officer next to me asked me if I was paying attention. Which brings me to this: When I was in school, I could study with the music blaring or noise going on around me. As a matter of fact, I prefer it NOT to be quiet when I studied. If I would have stared at the person discussing the budget, I would have started to daydream. In all reality it is best that I doodle, if someone talks for more than 30 minutes. I will pay more attention to them if I do. Unless there is mayhem going on around me or someone is telling me something gruesome about a crime, I pretty much zone out during numbers crunching.....zzzZZZZzzzZZZ

Here are my rough draft doodles. I will complete them another time.....maybe the next budget meeting..lol




So tell me? When you studied? Did you like it quiet or did you study more efficiently with noise around you? How well do you pay attention?

'Naked' star describes fishing with 'private parts,' ruins appetites
Source: msnNOW.com: updated 24 hours a day. Reported 23 hrs ago

Are you not entertained, America? Upcoming Discovery Channel show "Naked and Afraid" features two strangers teaming up to conquer the elements without any clothes on. (Duh) From the sound of it, the participants had their work cut out for them: One star, Kellie Nightlinger, says she had been "starving" for two weeks in the wilds of Tanzania when she figured out a way to use her "private parts" as bait, trapping fish between her thighs. "Traditional [fishing] methods wouldn't work," Nightlinger says. Says the Discovery exec behind the show, which comes out this summer: "Having no clothes just takes [survival shows] to the next level."

I am guessing they are naked in order to get viewers...and I would win that bet.
How many of you NN Members will apply for next seasons games........lol.

The head is still stuffed...but I can talk!

When my dear friend Mont was my 100,000th visitor, I took a special pic for him.

****As of now, amancalledpony was the last person to see the blog at 200,000. The game is over. No more entries after Pony.

Now what? Twiddle my thumbs?

I talk to my sons every day. Their voices just bring such a thrill to my soul. I haven't seen them since Christmas and it hurts. They do have lives, work, classes and their extra curricular volunteering. So you see, I raised them well. I am so proud.

This morning, I got a call. "Hey Ma! How are you feeling? Your voice is getting worse. It sounds like you need some soup" There was a knock on my door and when I looked through the peep hole....there was my oldest son! I cried like a silly little girl and couldn't stop crying. I couldn't talk very much but it was great just having him here on the couch with me. We spent the day just being with one another watching movies. He was stretched out on the couch with his feet in my lap...lol. He did take a nap for a bit and that is when I blogged my memories of trying to learn how to dive. He knows how and was successful in high school with it. We got on the subject when he had asked me if the pool down the street had a diving board. Well they don't.

Anyway, He drove through the night to be with me for the day. He just left. I am still crying. I don't know how many tissues I have gone through. Now that is what I call a good cry. I won't even wish that I was able to talk while he was here. I am just happy that he was.

My Dad was an avid swimmer, therefore all of us kids were in the water with him. Since he worked swing shifts or the 3rd watch he had time to take us swimming. During the summer we were at the beach. During the winter we spent our days swimming in Thompson Pool in Bell Flower, Ca. The best part about the pool was that it was indoors and open all year. The pool was huge and it still exists. I have great memories of that pool. It was where I tried to learn how to dive.

Unfortunately, this is how I looked when I tried.


As I got a few years older, I still could not master it.


I gave up for a while, went through Junior High and therefore ended my desire. But when high school rolled around and all of the students had to take diving, well...I tried again.

I so wanted to look like this...man...my dreams were high!


But alas, it was not meant to be. I always ended up like this.


When I watch the Diving Competition during the Summer Olympics, I always flip off the screen........lol.

All of us have our favorite sports, sports teams or players. I will watch sports all year round. When one ends, another begins. That is the beauty of them all. So here is your chance to show your favorite sports, teams or a player and be an athleetic supporter! Choose any sport that you want. Baseball, Football, Soccer, Basketball, Nascar, Golf, Tennis, Bowling, etc etc...you get my point.

For the umteenth millionth time (yes I know those aren't real words), but they fit at the moment.
"Just checking that you didn't die" she says. I told her that if I feel like I am going to die, I would leave an outgoing message before I did....lol. Why do people get irritated when you are being funny? I mean, she did start it!

Then she goes into her same old schpeel of me needing a man and says she has some guys that she wants me to meet. The last man she tried to set me up with in 2006, lived in a garage. "But he is nice" she said. Pardon me for being picky, but I would like a man who didn't have to use the Port-a-Poty across the street to relieve himself.

I tried perving, but just wasn't into it. I did read some blogs and laughed. Ibhunting and Saffie...thank you for the giggles from your blogs. I will get you back as soon as I am feeling better.
