285: movie stuff

tonight we watched " Who Killed the Electric Car". i watched it last week while i was home alone but fell asleep about 2/3 through. it wasn't boring. i was just tired. the movie made me angry . very angry. sad too. why are humans so... human? it sounds funny but in some cases it's horrendous . i can understand that we might want to hit back when hit or hurt back when hurt. but why are we greedy ? and mean for no reason? why do we get so ugly when we don't have to be? and on such a large scale ? i was reminded of why for sooooo many years i said i never wanted to have children .

284: still among the 'live and kicking

hey y'all! Happy New Year to all my blog sistas and brothas. i can't believe it's been so long since i posted . i almost couldn't remember how to log into my blog. :-( i've been super busy on my end. what have y'all been doing? i guess i have to make the rounds , to catch up on all i've missed. :-) right before Christmas, time seemed to go hyper-speed and i just didn't have enough hours in the day to do all i wanted or needed. then before i knew it, mr. bliss was leaving to go visit his mom back home and baby bliss was heading off with her dad to her stepmom's parents' home. and for the first time in a looooooooooooong time, i was home alone! i really did intend to use some of that time for blogging. but i was sleepy. so i slept. i also got some reading done and a little crocheting too. i also think i spent a lot of time playing Bejeweled 2. but my memory on that is a little foggy. which might be a sign of my budding addiction because it's...

282: something i was 'sposed to blog about...

hey y'all. there was something i was supposed to blog about but now i've forgotten it. not that there's not other stuff i want to blog about. but this was something i really wanted to blog about. now it's a faded memory. it's right in the outer limits of my periphery but i can't see that far without my SuperDuperWonderWomanBadMamaBliss glasses. and i loaned those out to a friend who never gave them back so i'm stuck with seeing as plain ole Bliss, for the duration... any way, if it comes back into view, i'll post it. later y'all.

281: ALERT - identity theft

hey y'all. i got two disturbing e-mails today about identity theft. i'm gonna share them with y'all cuz it would be a sin and a shame not to. * * * Subject: FW: Identity theft...watch this video Identity theft This is exactly why I lock my doors when pumping gas. This video is well worth your time to watch. This is a 3 1/2 minute video produced by the Broward County, FL Sheriff's Office. Identity thieves are at it again, this time targeting people at gas stations. This sort of crime never occurred to me, especially since many of us never leave the side of our car when pumping gas anymore.That has apparently not improved our safety, especially for women who carry purses. The footage of the actual crime being committed is shocking in how easy it is to pull off. Please take heed and pass it along to friends, families and coworkers.

280: just chillin'

hey y'all! what's been shaking 'round these parts? i feel like i've been gone for ages. i miss y'all when i'm not here. Aly, what's going on in your neck of the woods? we saw that some parts of your state had floods. baby bliss and i were worried girl. i gotta get over to your place to see what's happening with ya. there are a bunch of others i need to drop in on too. but it probably won't be today. you see, i've been taking a much-needed chill . the holiday bazaar weekend was busy busy busy at church. i went on friday night to help set up and write up the silent auction items. baby bliss and i were there for a few hours. saturday we were there bright and early too. baby bliss helped work the kids' tables and i mostly wo-manned the silent auction items . i placed several items in the silent auction and two of them were snapped up (one of my crocheted doggy leashes and a fun yarn-and-wire, free-form, body-wear thingy i made.) su...
