Why....

Priceless!!!

do people have to be so mean? There is not one website right now, that doesn't have people making rude and offensive comments about American Idol. People are either bashing Adam, or Kris. I will buy both of their CD's. Adam is a natural born entertainer. He is theatrical, yes, but so is Steven Tyler, Elton John, Cher, Britney, etc....he is a performer. That is his style. I'm sure that is why he was paired up with KISS last night. It worked for him. Isn't this America? Do people not have the choice to wear black nail polish and platform shoes and sing what they love? Adam being a little eccentric and theatrical is no different than the age of the boy bands with their over the top synchronized choreography. I saw a few of them in concert, they lip synced the whole time because they had to in order to dance and PERFORM for the audience. No big deal. People still bought the albums and ticket concerts. I think that the outcome worked out for Adam because now, he can go make his style of music. He can sing what he wants to sing, and isn't stuck singing that "Mountain" song for the next six months on the Idol tour.

I guess maybe it's because I like all kinds of music. If you shuffle my Ipod, you will get all kinds of sounds. One song maybe old school country and the next 80's rock, then spanish pop to classical sound. That's just me.

Kris, is so down to earth, and the look of shock on his face when he won was just priceless. Like I said, I loved his performance with Keith Urban (you'll find him on my Ipod too.) It was so him. That is HIS style. I could easily sit at his concert and watch him go from his piano to his acoustic guitar and just stand there and sing. I would expect no different. People would faint if they saw him walk down some foggy stairs with a long trench coat. And that, is why we live in this wonderful country. Because we can all be different and we can like different things.

I hate to think of Kai or Nachito reading some of the horrible things that people are saying about Adam and Kris. Yes, this wonderful country does have a right to free speech, but children are influenced by what they see, and what they hear. I want them to know that they have a choice to like whatever they like, and when they read mean comments, that they take the higher road. And to not join in on all the bashing. To appreciate everyone for who they are, and to be happy with who THEY are. How boring would this world be if we were all the same?
OK, now I''m done with the whole Idol controversy. I've said my peace. I will now look forward to these two making great music and I can't wait to see BOTH of them on tour. Actually, I can't wait to see all of the Top 10 on tour. They all deserve it. They all followed their dreams and that only goes to prove, that if you believe in yourself, anything is possible. I bet that a year ago, those Top 10 were living normal lives like you and me, and now look at them. Dream big or go home.

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them. Hum...maybe because I used my three favorite colors, maybe because I like to make invitations, or maybe it's just because I LOVE to plan parties. Either way, here is a sneak peak. Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

Good things come to those who wait...

I was having one of those bad Mondays. One of those Mondays when everything seems to be going wrong. 1. Our phones at the office are not working. 2. Statements went out over the weekend and angry patients are calling to complain. 3. My coffee got cold and I had to throw it away, and now I have a caffeine headache. 4. My cell phone has been tied up all day because I'm having our calls forwarded to it. (good thing for rollover minutes). 5. My boss has just added two more things to my darker pink "TODO" notebook. And just as I was about to roll up in a ball and hide under my desk, I got this e-mail. Dear Kindle Customer, Today, we introduced Kindle 2, the next generation of our wireless reading device.

Where do I begin???

After a long absence from my blog, I am finally sitting down to post. So much has happened in the past month that I honestly don't know where to begin. December 23, 2009 turned my world upside down. My mom suffered a minor heart attack, and was taken by ambulance to Chandler Regional Hospital. When I arrived, she was in good shape, and she was talking. They ordered a CT Scan of her chest. When she got back to the ER from her test, every thing that could have gone wrong, did. She suffered another heart attack, this one was much worse. She was in-tubated and things were not looking very good for her. The next few days were spent waiting for tests to be run, consulting with Dr.s and praying. A lot of praying. We were finally told that she would need to undergo a quadruple bypass. There was a problem with that, because she was in critical condition. Her kidneys were failing, her blood pressure was to high, as was her blood sugar. And, she was to weak. The surgeon said that we would
