Song of the Day

"Chasing Cars"
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?



I love everything about this song. :)

more useless information

Okay this Animal Crossing video is for Joshua. The game allows you to design your own pattern to have for clothes etc. I've never done this before but I remember that the old Animal Crossing game guidebook had a couple of designs you could copy.

I won't designing anything as elaborate as this but the concept is simple. I do have knitting patterns that I could transfer because that is composed on graph paper. Hmmm...I can make the griffindor pattern..I'll have to see if it'll fit. Stay tuned.

Saria's Song

Such a pretty tune from the Legend of Zelda. I had part of this tune on the original Animal Crossing for my town's tune. I'll need to try and add this so I can enjoy it all the time in the new game.

It Fits!!


Yippee...the little sweater that I made for a friend's baby fits perfectly. I can't remember baby sizes so I was hoping that everything would turn out all right. Isn't she adorable in her sweater?
I've been obsessed with Animal Crossing even more now that I have Wi-Fi and WiiSpeak. I can visit other people's towns and talk to them. No more pointing the Wiimote at a keyboard and trying to type a letter at a time.
I've met people in Philadelphia, North Carolina and Oklahoma. All the women ooh and ahh over everyone's clothes and accessories so exchange them briefly so it'll register on their catalogs which they can buy from at their own town. Too funny. Hector was talking on the phone to his friend saying that I and some other women were undressing which caused some confusion. Yeah, get your mind out of the gutter....
Josh's birthday party was really fun. About 15 kids showed up and they all were well behaved. It was an observation that about 4 of kids were brought by their dads which is a strong turnout. The kids loved the super humongous pizza, the puppet show, bounce house and pinata. Hector and I were pretty busy so I didn't take very many pictures. I did take some video of the puppet show, pinata and birthday cake. Josh was so happy that he had his very own birthday party.
I was so exhausted that I decided not to go to the hockey game last night. He and Yan-Ro went and had a good time. I watched the game on TV and relaxed.
Today was much more relaxing. I feel that I'm on the verge of a cold and I don't want it to ruin my Vegas trip. Think positive thoughts.

on the loose

This morning I was taking the trash to the bin off to the side of our yard when I heard dogs barking. Our neighbors have a dog that kept getting into our yard a few months ago but we fixed it so end of problem. Um, no. As I was throwing the trash in the bin I saw the dog, a young retriever mix. So I walk toward the back of the yard hoping to see where the dog got in. I got closer to the fence and saw another dog poke is head out through the boards then retreat back into his yard. So there are 2 dogs living next door. The first dog is skittish and barking at me so there was no way he could get back through to his side or let me near him. I started back toward the gate when the 2nd dog bursts through to our yard and the 2 dogs go bonkers running around when I realize the gate it open but I'm too late. The dogs take off into the street and I'm thinking great....I need to get the kids ready for school and hopefully catch these stupid dogs. Yeah right. I walk next door and see the dogs running around the cud de sac then turn the corner to who knows where. Great. I ring the doorbell and the lady answers the door but she doesn't speak English and no one else is home who does. Argh. She comes back with a notepad where I write what happened and she figures out her dogs are loose.

I had to get back to the kids but I hope they can find their dogs safe and sound. I think they had tags. Bummer.

cute to what?




I came across this on youtube..I like this song although it's something I normally listen to so by the time I hear it, it's probably several months or years old. But I like the simple animation.

Then youtube links other postings that are similar. So here is a crazy person doing the video moves in Alaska wearing only a swimsuit leotard thing dancing in the snow. Oh and it's a dude! There really is nothing to do up there. :)
