Oh, My Gosh! My heart is still pounding!


You're not going to believe this, but Doug took me to the movies tonight to see Vantage Point, and Oh, my gosh! My heart is STILL pounding.


It is one of the best action pictures I've seen in a long time. If you're up for a lot of intense action, that's your movie!!

I don't know if this is going to work, but the link below is a voice message from Ben and Mia on my birthday. It was so cute I thought I'd share it with you all. After you click the link, you just have to click the voice message red 260.7 k link and it will play. It's really short, but so sweet!

Lookee! Lookee! Lookee!

I never dreamed it would be possible, but I've DONE it!! I knitted one whole pair of socks!! And they fit!! It's too bad you can't feel them. They are exceedlingly soft and a little furry. So comfy!

I just LOVE knitting. Someone asked me the other day about making a quilt, and I said, "I CAN'T! I'm knitting these days!" Robin gave me FOUR knitting books chock full of patterns for socks. I can hardly wait to start the next pair!

Look at My Stash!

My birthday this year is almost as good as Christmas! Robin has outdone herself! Below are pictures of the birthday box and the contents she sent me for my incredible 59th birthday! I can't believe I'm almost 60 years old!!!


What fun it was to get such a FUN collection of gifts! Thanks, Dear Sister!

A couple of days before I got the box from Robin, I received a special gift from a sister in the Lord. The Bible study group that I attended last year has been studying the following study. My dear sister, Annette, sent me a copy of it to share with me what they had been studying. What a special gift!


I just had to show you a picture of the card the office staff gave me. Isn't it great?! I think it's perfect, especially since my favorite color is red!


And this is all BEFORE my birthday! There might even be another gift or two to come!

Unbelievable!

You'll never believe what I did last night!!!


I like the program Survivor on TV, but we don't get it down here in Mexico. So, my sister logged on to MSN Live Messenger, set up her camera and microphone facing the TV and we watched the program together through the internet!!!!! It had a good picture and excellent streaming!! What fun! The only sad thing was that it was on the same time as Lost. That's one of my Most favorite programs! We'll have to work something out about that.
