Chain Letter Contributors

This is for all you chain-letter addicts. I found this hilarious because I have been sent so many of these proven FALSE chain-letters.

Scroll down half the page to get to the different hoaxes.
Please take the time to read if you are one of those you can't spot a hoax. I really like the one about the "back-window" robbers b/c I actually fell for that one. And I have always heard about the "flashing lights" gang sign one that was created years ago and I believed it too. But I never pass them on because I never know if they are true or not.

A Night at the Movies

It has been one of those weeks.

Sick kids,

running to the orthodontist day after day for loose wires,

and doctor appointments.

But the worst of it was my husband working 6 days straight and then "deathly" sick on his only day off.

Last night, after having the doctor call in a prescription, I headed to Layton to the closest 24 hour pharmacy. I was enraged to find out the prescription wouldn't be done for 1-2 hours! I told them forget it because I was not coming all the way back and drove away. As I drove down the street I spotted the movie theatre and thought to myself,

"I deserve a night at the movies".

I headed back to the pharmacy with my head hung low and told them to go ahead and fill the prescription.

I have never been to the movies by myself. I must say, it was empowering. I can't say much for the movie. It was very disturbing and I left very paranoid about my surroundings. Heck, a lone woman leaving the theatre at 11:00 at night after watching "Taken" is very scary.

I heard once that women should go to the movies by themselves once in awhile and I never understood why.

Now I do.

Too Independent?

Where has the time gone? Can you believe these two little guys just made their own microwave popcorn? I was in my room preparing for my diet class. I went downstairs to change the laundry and noticed there was popcorn on the floor. I went to the twins room where they were playing to find a big bowl of popcorn in the middle of their room. I asked who made it and they both said,

"not me!"

I asked again and Benny said,

"it was Emily"(who is in school at this moment).

So I said,

"Who is smart enough to make their own popcorn?"

Their little faces lit up and yelled,

"We did, we did it all alone!"

Yesterday was their first day of Primary and they handled it better than I could have hoped for. I just can't believe they are almost 4!

Your Song

Have you ever wondered what your song is?

This sight tells you the #1 song on the day you were born or whenever you want.

My song is "Want Ads" by Honey Cone... whatever!

I took the liberty to look up my sister Robin & it is

"Bridge over Troubled Waters"

by Simon & Garfunkel.

I had to laugh b/c that is so her. What in the heck does mine imply?

Why couldn't I have a cool song like hers?

Have Fun!

More than Memories...

We brought home something more than memories from our wonderful Thanksgiving Vacation. We all brought home sore throats which is fine since some of us went with coughs... we figure it was an even trade.

The other morning Emily was not feeling well. Since her teachers have made it pure torture if you miss a day, she insisted on going to school. The night before I gave her the last of some cold medicine and Advil. That morning I told her to take more Advil and take some cough drops. On the way to school I found out that she self-medicated with some cough & cold syrup. When she got home she told me she about fell asleep in every class and she is sure she failed her Utah Studies test. Upon further investigation I found that she took NyQuil.

So should she be responsible for a poor grade in Utah Studies? Poor Girl!

Holy War

Here is just one more reason to bleed blue during

the Holy War this weekend.

I know most of you could care less about football but I love it. I love intense games where I can let loose and have my kids think I'm a crazy lunatic who has taken over their mother. I am an Aggie fan no matter what but I cheer for BYU if they are playing anyone but USU and I cheer for the Utes if they are playing anyone but USU or BYU (except this year I was all for TCU kicking the Ute pride down in preparation for the Holy War~ too bad it didn't happen!)

Go Cougars!
