Britt Nicole-The Lost Get Found

Another good song!

More Beautiful You-Johnny Diaz

I like this song, because of it's lyrics -- basically, you're just fine the way you are.

More Beautiful You

Little girl fourteen flipping through a magazine
Says she wants to look that way
But her hair isn’t straight her body isn’t fake
And she’s always felt overweight

Well little girl fourteen I wish that you could see
That beauty is within your heart
And you were made with such care your skin your body and your hair
Are perfect just the way they are

There could never be a more beautiful you
Don’t buy the lies disguises and hoops they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you

Little girl twenty-one the things that you’ve already done
Anything to get ahead
And you say you’ve got a man but he’s got another plan
Only wants what you will do instead

Well little girl twenty-one you never thought that this would come
You starve yourself to play the part
But I can promise you there’s a man whose love is true
And he’ll treat you like the jewel you are

So turn around you’re not too far
To back away be who you are
To change your path go another way
It’s not too late you can be saved
If you feel depressed with past regrets
The shameful nights hope to forget
Can disappear they can all be washed away
By the one who’s strong can right your wrongs
Can rid your fears dry all your tears
And change the way you look at this big world
He will take your dark distorted view
And with His light He will show you truth
And again you’ll see through the eyes of a little girl

Hmmm.....

I've been so busy helping my sister and family with their move into their new "home" - 4 old apartments renovated into one 6-bedroom/2-bath apartment -- that I haven't had time to do any 'fun' stuff. But i'm not sure what kind of fun stuff i would have done this summer anyway. I enjoy spending time with my sister and her family, so even though it's been hard work, and painful at times, i'd rather be here than most places. i would've liked for them to come down to California to visit our relatives there for a while, so, maybe next year. Comic Con anyone??? Bruce might be there!!!!

Been Busy!

Haven't posted lately because been busy with stuff -- nurses' alumni, FANHS, Spokane move, etc.

here's my nephew, the Boxhead!

Shaun Groves-After the Music Fades

When I'm procrastinating at home, I listen to the music I have on my 'puter and look up music videos and lyrics - and sometimes I feel like posting what I find. So here's one I like!

Dead Bird at Chukchansi

While I was walking back from parking my car in the casino parking lot, this bird dropped dead right in front of me! Dropped right down from the sky and struck the sidewalk - almost like someone threw it at me! I wasn't sure what kind of omen this was. But, I won after that, so I guess it was a good omen!

I told the valet dude about it and he went out to clean it up - said the heat has been so bad, that that might have been what had happened to it. I don't know, the other birds were busy flying all over the place and didn't seem to be affected by the heat. Oh well.....

Red Lobster= Eating for Free!

Tonight we got to eat an early dinner at Red Lobster, for almost free! We get "free" gift cards for it by doing mypoints.com and using the rewards bonuses from Discover card.

I like to maximize my rewards, so instead of getting the cash back from Discover, i turn them into gift cards and gain an extra five bucks!

and using mypoints.com takes an extra 5 minutes a day to click on advertisements, (and a lot of extra junk email), but when the points add up, i get free gift cards to several different places - but i usually go with Red Lobster and Pizza Hut and Burger King! we used to choose Chili's, but since they might close down, we'll stick with Red Lobster - which also can be used at Olive Garden and other places.

I like eating for free! or almost free! yum!
