Just A Little
I think if Norman saw these photos he would be totally jealous!
This is really how Guido sleeps and this is really Kevin’s pillow:
You see how much head room Kevin has!
Our desk is right next to the bed, so Guido uses it to rest his little chin:
He’s just a little spoiled.

Much Brighter Now
Years ago when we painted the bathroom walls burgundy, I thought it was beautiful. I still look at the pictures and think it is beautiful. We put a chair rail around the walls and wallpapered the bottom half.
I grew up in a hundred year old house where every room was wallpapered; sometimes to help conceal a crack in the plaster. This is what I was accustomed to and believed it to be the ordinary thing to do when decorating.
On the other hand, Kevin grew up in a new home; one where the walls were perfect, constructed of drywall, and no wallpaper was needed.
Kevin was totally against hanging any wallpaper, but I convinced him it would be okay since it was a small space and only half the wall would be covered. When he and my dad hung the wallpaper, they used wallpaper paste so it would stick better and last longer.
The paste did its job and the wallpaper lasted for many years. The only part I didn’t like was around the baseboards. When I dusted them, I noticed the edges of the wallpaper beginning to curl a bit. I was also unhappy with the ceiling. It needed a fresh coat of white paint.
So, last Saturday, the day before Easter around 10:30 in the morning, when Kevin asked me what I had planned for the day, I suggested we do something for the house. As always, Kevin was game. He forever strives to make me happy and he is up for any suggestion I make. He still amazes me after all these years. Men like Kevin are rare.
I suggested redecorating the bathroom and we went from there.
The chair rail came down easily enough. We bought some DIF GEL to remove the wallpaper. You spray it on and then scrape the wallpaper off. I highly recommend this product as it made the wallpaper come off much easier. I have heard people say you can use fabric softener and water, but it was just as economical for us to buy the DIF because I don’t use fabric softener.
We will never hang wallpaper again. It can be beautiful, especially in an old house, but paint is so much cheaper and easier to change. The wallpaper was one of many mistakes I have made in regards to our house. I am glad it has been corrected!
Some people will think the bathroom looks plain now, but it is much brighter. At this time in my life, I want things simple and uncluttered.
We kept the blue for now because it was easier, but that may change later.
A new coat of paint on the ceiling and walls, and a new faucet has made a big difference in this room. I’m raring to have a go at our second bathroom now!

A New Faucet
This was our old bathroom faucet:
Notice how I circled the lovely hole so you wouldn’t miss it!
Kevin installed the new faucet this afternoon:
This was one of those home improvement jobs he had never done before. As always, I am very proud of his work!

Under Cover
Looking at this picture, you would assume we don’t make our bed:
Upon closer inspection, you will notice the end of a long, black tail. This would be Church. He burrows under our comforter a lot lately; I can’t figure out why. I wish I could catch him on video when he’s actually in the act of his nesting. He thrashes the comforter around like he’s mad at it and this comforter isn’t light-weight either!

Buyers Beware
Lately I have noticed more product placement during television shows than ever before. I watch a lot of reality TV and that could be the reason why. Last night on America’s Next Top Model they made sure they showed the name of the cellular phone company on the phone several times.
As much as I love The Biggest Loser, I believe they have become the worst in the product placement category. So far, they have advertised Ziploc Bags, Subway, Brita water filters, Extra chewing gum, Orville Redenbacher's 100 Calorie Popcorn, PAM Cooking Spray, and Quaker Oatmeal: Weight Control. It’s really obvious and sometimes comical and corny when they endorse products because you as the viewer can tell the whole situation was planned, directed, and probably scripted. Having said all of this, I have a point.
My point is this; you can’t just go by what they are selling even though it is a TV show about losing weight. Just because the oatmeal is called Weight Control, doesn’t mean it is the best one out there. The Weight Control flavors include cinnamon, maple & brown sugar, and banana bread. Each of these packets has 160 calories. However, if you buy the Quaker Low Sugar Oatmeal, shown HERE, you will see that the maximum amount of calories is 120. When you’re counting calories like I am, 40 calories is a lot.
When counting calories, you have to do the research for yourself. If you care about calories, read the back of the box and make sure you look at the serving size. Take this Weight Watchers Smart Ones Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Sundae for example. It has 170 calories, but that is for one cookie. Since you get two in the box, many people would think you could eat both cookies for 170 calories. This is not so.
As a matter of fact, I almost did the same thing as THIS WOMAN until I read the back of the box right before I opened them. WARNING: She drops the F-Bomb.
Like her, I was disappointed that I was only able to eat one after seeing the picture of two on the box and salivating over them. I haven’t bought any since either. To me, it’s not worth the calories for the small amount you get. Buyers beware.

TV Guide Rant
Once my subscription runs out in August, I do not think I will renew my TV Guide Magazine. Ever since they drastically changed formats, I have been unhappy. They are long overdue for a letter from me. I don’t believe my opinion will matter, but it will make me feel better to clear the air.
These are the things that bother me.
* TV Guide used to be about the actual TV schedule. People bought TV Guide to find out what shows were going to be aired. The book was small, but thick. It was thick because it listed everything a person needed to know about their favorite TV shows. If an episode of Roseanne was playing, the TV Guide would give you a little description of what the episode was about. It didn’t matter if it was a rerun, you still got a description - a much better description than what you currently get.
* Before the changes you knew what was coming on all day at all times. Now they only have a small section for weekdays. I suppose since the shows never change, people are supposed to know what times their favorite show is on. If you watch a certain soap opera, I guess the people at TV Guide assume you will know the channel and time that soap is on each day. I miss knowing what shows will be about each day though. The Ellen DeGeneres Show is a good example. I would like to know what Ellen will be about each day. I should be able to open my trusty TV Guide and find out, but I can’t. I guess they thought no one wanted that information. Regis and Kelly. I would like to know who will be the guests on Regis & Kelly each day of the week. Can I find that in my TV Guide? No! Weekdays and weekend days are no longer available. If I want to know who the guest will be on The View, I have to go to their website. I have to do most of my schedule planning via online help because the subscription for the magazine which I purchased and thought would help me, doesn’t help except for nighttime viewing.
* Before the changes, there were about four pages in the back before the crossword puzzle where they listed all the movies that would air that week. It didn’t matter if it was a cable channel or premium channel. Currently, they have a “Movie Hot List” which lists about four movies for each day of the week. I know there are more than four movies coming on each night and I want to know them all!
* Before the changes, we also knew what was going to be airing late at night. Now, the last listing ends at 10:30. Once 11:00 hits, you are out of luck! I might want to know what movie is on American Movie Classics at 2AM. If there is an infomercial playing, just say so, but tell me. I may want to record a favorite episode of Property Virgins on HGTV at 3AM … if I knew it came on at 3AM!
* If a person wants to know what will air Saturday afternoon, they can forget it! It’s not in the magazine! I guess the people at TV Guide expect people to watch the TV Guide Network. I am supposed to watch the TV Guide Network and then wait five minutes for the grid with the TV listings to scroll up, painfully slow, in order to see what is on. If I wanted to do that, I wouldn’t have bought the magazine.
This magazine was intended to be an aid for people wanting to know the TV schedule. It has now become a magazine filled with interviews, predictions, gossip, and photos. I enjoy those things, but I would rather have the schedule – the entire schedule, not just primetime.
I find that I am constantly turning to the Internet to find schedules. I am consistently disappointed in the TV programming information available in my TV Guide. So, I guess as long as I have the Internet and the magazine stays the same, I no longer need it.

The Things You Will See ... On Me!
It’s been a while.
I’ve been on the computer, but every time I get on, I have emails to read or other blogs I want to read. By the time I do those things, the urge to write is gone.
I finished Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl which I had never read until now. It amazed me and I found it remarkable how I could relate things that I am feeling now, at the age of 36 in the year 2008 to how she felt at 14 years of age in the year 1943. Certain sentences resonate my feelings exactly. It astonished me to say the least.
The weekend went by entirely too quickly, but that happens when a person is busy. We stripped wallpaper, painted a room, had dinner with the family, and then painted some more. I will show you before and after pictures once everything is complete. We are currently still in the painting and wait until it dries before we do anything else phase. You just have to roll your eyes sometimes.
On a totally different subject; I was in a children’s clothing store last weekend. As I walked past a little girl, I noticed that she was staring a hole through me, or rather my chest. I thought to myself, now what could she be staring at. Then it dawned on me. I was wearing my new Alice shirt:
The blood on her knife and apron may have been a tad to dramatic for a child. That thought never occurred to me when I walked in that store. The funny thing is; I have often seen, mainly teenagers, wearing shirts I thought were inappropriate. By wearing this shirt am I now the inappropriate one? I’m sure I will sound like one of those teenagers when I say, I really don’t care. I adore this shirt. AMERICAN MCGEES ALICE is the coolest game ever!

Commercials
Kevin was off from teaching last week because of spring break. Also, neither of us had homework to do for classes. You would think we probably did something exciting, but we kept with the same routine as always. Since Ashley was in school it would have been impossible for us to have stayed up late and then gotten up early to take her to school. Kevin didn’t have to get up early every day, and he did sleep a little later one day, however as quiet as we try to be, Ashley and I still have to move about and get dressed. This doesn’t make it easy for someone who is trying to sleep. Fortunately, Kevin doesn’t mind rising early.
We both enjoy reading and spending time on the computer, so that is how we mainly spent our time. I cannot tell you how much I enjoy YouTube. I am reliving my childhood through these commercials:
Oscar Mayer Bologna & Life cereal
Reeces Pieces, Happi Returns, Pop-tarts, Time For Timer (You Are What You Eat)
Apple IIc computer & Burger King
Coca-Cola, Oreo cookies, Burger King
Bill Cosby JELL-O Pudding Pops
I could go on and on all day watching commercials from the 70’s and 80’s if I didn't have homework to do.

Shock!
Immediately following school yesterday, Ashley had a dance, so when she finally did get home she curled up in her bed with yet another V.C. Andrews book.
I was more than a little surprised to see Church curled up with her:
It pleases me to no end that she enjoys these books. I own the entire collection and wondered who I would pass them on to. Now I know ;)

We received a crafty flyer in the mail today:
It’s not from our church, but I love the way they grabbed my attention!

"Maybe Tomorrow"
Kevin and I went to the Book Cellar this morning:
It was a great time to look because very few people were there.

THIS has to be the oddest news story I have read in years. It boggles my mind imagining it.

Mastermind
This video of The Singing, Ringing Tree is awesome and amazing. What I find even more interesting though is Pendle Hill which is seen in the background. Before viewing this video I had never heard of The Pendle Witches or Lancashire Witches. It is very fascinating reading if you enjoy historical accounts of witch hunts.
Currently, I am reading Tales of Edgar Allen Poe with an introduction written by Hervey Allen. I had come to believe by the telling of one person or another that Poe was crazy, however Allen set me straight.
According to Hervey Allen,
“Poe had gathered his writings together, story and verse; he had revised and re-edited them, adding many improvements and correcting minor errors – and then he had left them in the care of his most bitter and relentless enemy – and died. Scarcely was Poe’s body cold before Rufus W. Griswold, his literary executer, was out in the New York newspapers with what, under the guise of an obituary, amounted to a major defamation of the poet’s character, to a subtle sneering at and depreciation of his work.”
Allen goes on to say,
“Rufus W. Griswold was the ablest American anthologist of his time. He had a keen nose for talent but a jaundiced eye for genius, since jealousy was a large item in his personality. Poe had from time to time offended him and also given evidence of genius. Griswold’s revenge was to attack Poe posthumously. He delayed the publication of the material that had been left in his hands, and when he did publish it, he published only part of it, and disregarded many of Poe’s corrections and emendations. All this occurred in the early fifties of the last century.”
Allen has much more to say, but you get the gist of it. Poe was not crazy, but a mastermind. How many artistic people have we labeled as mad and put on medication or in mental institutions when what they actually need is an outlet for their creativity?
We all have our ups and downs, but does that mean we automatically are insane or need medication? Some children are more hyper than others, but does this mean we automatically put them on a drug such as Ritalin? I don’t believe in drugging children in order to calm them down unless it is an extremely desperate case. I have heard too many teachers suggest to parents of hyper active children that they take their child to a doctor for some medicine to calm little Johnny down. On the flip side, I have overheard parents watching the behavior of other children, say, at a park, comment on how such-and-such needs to be medicated. I have said this in jest, but then followed up quickly by adding that I do not believe in drugging children who are hyper. The circumstances would have to be dire.
Well, I have gotten off track here and given my opinion on a sticky subject. I’m sure I will hear about it in the comments. So be it. I will be the first person to tell you how thankful I am for medication. Used correctly and in the right situations, it is a wonderful thing. I am not against medicine at all. What I am against is the repression of a child’s talent or spirit because someone thinks they are too hyper to deal with. If you don’t believe these medications are subduing and hindering your child’s artistic, creative, or imaginative (say it as you will) spirit, I believe you are wrong.
Back to Poe ...
So far, I am enjoying Poe’s work. There is one last bit I would like to share from Hervey Allen:
“Nothing is more indicative of the true genius of this writer than that his fame survived and continued to increase, despite the enormous difficulty of collecting his work, and, when once something was retrieved, of deciding what was to be the final and “official” text. For Poe put his writing, particularly his verse, through endless revisions, improving it and re-publishing it constantly. It is only in our own day that the research of scholars and the work of textual critics have come to rest in a more or less final agreement as to what is to be the standard version of Poe texts. Thanks to this agreement, this present collection is possible.”
I, for one, am thankful for the scholars who put his works back together.

Waiting For Snow
I fully expected to be blogging tonight about the massive snow amounts we had received, however as of this time, we don’t have any. They are predicting 5 to 10 inches to fall between tonight and tomorrow morning. This amount would be considerable for this area.
Schools dismissed early in our county and surrounding counties; I don’t know if that will add an extra day to the school year or not. They are going through June 2nd and that will be hard as it is. Ashley’s birthday is the 3rd, so we are cutting it very close. She has gone to school on her birthday before and I know other kids do it every year, but, like everyone else, she doesn’t like it.
Kevin and Ashley did the Wal-Mart thing last night, so we are stocked up on milk, bread, popcorn, and unhealthy foods. Since he went, he is to blame for us having this in our freezer:
I guess I will be forced to eat a big bowl – just like last weekend! The shame of it! I do have to admit, this flavor of ice cream is amazing.

Older Than Dirt
I love the line in the movie Steel Magnolias when Clairee Belcher, played by Olympia Dukakis says, “Well, you know what they say: if you don't have anything nice to say about anybody, come sit by me!”
I actually think of that line quite often and it came to me again this morning as I looked through a catalog we received in the mail yesterday. This catalog had many cute items; however there were two things which I found downright comical. I can’t help it; I get tickled at certain things. Remember when I showed you the footed pajamas? Not everyone found them quite so funny, but they still crack me up!
If you have ever watched the television show Everybody Loves Raymond, you will find this product funny:
Yes, that is a translucent cover for your couch. Now I ask you; WHY? If you’re going to be that worried about spilling something on it, if it is that expensive; don’t buy it!
Now, this next product is the kicker. I had never seen this before and it totally cracked me up:
Who the heck has time to dress their washing machine and dryer? Most people do good to dress themselves let alone try to dress a machine. This looks like something that would have been on the show Mama's Family. I will just go ahead and say it; this looks like something only old people would like. Really. Old. People.
Do I have a warped sense of humor or what?

Missouri
Each time Andrew has to travel, it rains. As a matter of fact, it doesn’t only rain; it pours. Yesterday was no different. When he arrived at the airport in Raleigh, North Carolina there were bad storms.
His plane was supposed to leave at 4:45; however, because the weather was so bad, it was delayed until 6:45. That time ended up changing to 6:15. He flew to Atlanta, Georgia and had to rush in order to make it to his next flight which would take him to Missouri. Had there not been delays, he wouldn’t have had to rush so much. Oh, and let me just say; I have no idea why in the world you have to fly from North Carolina to Georgia in order to get to Missouri, but that’s the way it is. That was not a typo.
He arrived in Missouri to winter weather around 11 last night and then on base at 3:30 AM this morning. He had to be up at 4:30 AM. I think he will sleep well tonight! Hopefully they get the chance today to buy some winter gear – like a coat and gloves!
On January 13th, I explained the EGA (Eagle, Globe, & Anchor) Ceremony. This took place after the Crucible and they received their EGA pin which signifies they are Marines.
This is the best photo I could get of him during that ceremony:
*****
I have been meaning to share another picture with you also. I want to show you the “A” on my hand:
You may think it’s corny, but each time I look at it, it helps me to keep Andrew and Ashley in mind. If you do not see it, this will help:
I think it's cool.

"Do me a favor. Put your lip over your head... and swallow."
Every time I watch the movie Grumpy Old Men I am glad that I did. It gets funnier every time; maybe it’s because I am older each time I watch!
I don’t know how, but I forget and then it surprises me that Burgess Meredith is in this film. It boggles my mind how I would forget that since he is one of the funniest characters in the movie! He has been in so many things, but I first fell in love with him when he played Mr. Hennessey in the movie Foul Play.
There are many, many funny lines in this movie, so you need to see it if you haven’t, but here are three lines that I love:
Grandpa Gustafson (Burgess Meredith): Looks like Chuck's taking old one-eye to the optometrist.
Max Goldman (Walter Matthau): When I had an ulcer, I was farting razor blades.
John Gustafson (Jack Lemmon): I've laid more pipe in this town than Wabasha Plumbing.
There are too many one-liners to list, but you get the gist of it.
Sadly, the three leading men have passed away.
Burgess Meredith died in 1997 from melanoma and Alzheimer’s disease.
Walter Matthau died in 2000 from a heart attack.
Jack Lemmon died in 2001 from bladder cancer.
These were three men who were wonderful at what they did.
Someone sent me a joke in email and I found it very fitting since I was talking about “old men”. I hope it makes you smile:
Hot and ColdAfter his exam the doctor said to the elderly man: "You appear to be in good health. Do you have any medical concerns you would like to ask me about?"
"In fact, I do," said the old man. "After I have sex I am usually cold and chilly, and then, after I have sex with her the second time, I am usually hot and sweaty
After examining his elderly wife, the doctor said, "Everything appears to be fine. Do you have any medical concerns that you would like to discuss with me?
The lady replied that she had no questions or concerns.
The doctor then said to her: "Your husband had an unusual concern. He claims that he is usually cold and chilly after having sex with you the first time and then hot and sweaty after the second time. Do you know why?”
"Oh that crazy old fart," she replied. "That's because the first time is usually in January and the second time is in August."
Someone else sent me this:
Just before the funeral services, the undertaker came up to the very elderly widow and asked, “How old was your husband?” “98,” she replied. “Two years older than me.” “So you're 96,”the undertaker commented. She responded, “Hardly worth going home, is it?”*****
Reporters interviewing a 104-year-old woman:
“And what do you think is the best thing about being 104?” the reporter asked.
She simply replied, “No peer pressure.”*****
I've sure gotten old!
I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement, new knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine, take 40 different medications that make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts. Have bouts with dementia.
Have poor circulation; hardly feel my hands and feet anymore. Can't remember if I'm 85 or 92. Have lost all my friends. But, thank God, I still have my driver's license.*****
I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape, so I got my doctor's permission to join a fitness club and start exercising. I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors.
I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But, by the time I got my leotards on, the class was over.*****
An elderly woman decided to prepare her will and told her preacher she had two final requests. First, she wanted to be cremated, and second, she wanted her ashes scattered over Wal-Mart.
“Wal-Mart!” the preacher exclaimed, “why Wal-Mart?”
“Then I'll be sure my daughters visit me twice a week.”*****
My memory's not as sharp as it used to be.
Also, my memory's not as sharp as it used to be.*****
Know how to prevent sagging?
Just eat till the wrinkles fill out.*****
It's scary when you start making the same noises as your coffee maker.
*****
These days about half the stuff in my shopping cart says, “For fast relief.”
*****
THE SENILITY PRAYER :
Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway,
the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference.

Sunday Evening Call
I heard from Andrew last night. He has finished his infantry training and will graduate tomorrow. Right after graduation, he will fly to Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. He said there were 97 guys in his platoon this time and 39 failed this last test which was over weapons. He said those who failed will have another chance to take the test today. If they don’t pass, they have to go through the entire infantry training again. Needless to say, he is very happy to have this portion of his training finished.
Those who passed their test were given time to shop, eat, and make phone calls yesterday. He said he bought a backpack and ate at Wendy’s. He ordered two cheeseburgers, fries, a coke, and a flurry. I am glad he can finally get something in his stomach besides MRE's!

The weather here is 70 degrees and windy. This makes Guido quite happy since we can have the car windows rolled down a bit:

Hair By Elaine
The last time Ashley got her hair cut, it looked like THIS.
Today, she had it cut like this:
She has never had bangs in her life:
We came home early from Lexington and I am glad. It seemed like wrecks were in abundance and there were backups like crazy! Thanks to a tip from my Aunt Patt, I am now enjoying the sounds of Glenn Miller on KET.
