Last night we watched American Idol as we do every Tuesday and Wednesday night. There are only 8 contestants left. The guys are stronger than the girls this year so as of now there are 6 guys and 2 girls with someone leaving tonight. My predictions on who will be in the bottom 3 tonight are: Kris Allen, Scott MacIntyre and Lil Rounds. I am hoping it is Lil Rounds who leaves tonight. She has a good voice but has not done anything spectacular with any of her song choices like the rest have done. So she needs to go. I am afraid it could be Scott tonight if not tonight I think he will go next week. He just can't keep up with the rest of the guys.


In the end I think it will be between Adam Lament and Danny Gokey. Everyone else has been in the bottom three except for these two.Adam may not sing my style of songs but he has an amazing range and is an artist. I can see him writing music as well as a recording artist. It will be interesting to see how far Allison will go. She is pretty amazing and is only 16 years old. She has been in the bottom 3 twice. I don't think she belonged there. We will see how America voted tonight.





Well, the weather is back to cold and gloomy. Guess it is a good day to get groceries and plan menus for the week. I found some grocery lists online that you can print. I'm hoping it will make my shopping list more organized. It seems like I always have to go back for an item or two and/or forget something on my list no matter how carefully I read over it. We'll see how it goes today.

My First Post

After enjoying so many other blogs I have finally braved the blogging world and started my own. It wasn't so scary after all, in fact I'm pretty excited to have my own. Of course I still have things I want to change and add so don't be surprised if my blog changes each time you visit for a while.

There are several reasons I have started my own blog: 1) to keep a daily log of what happens in our life. 2)so family and friends can keep up with us 4)share and swap recipes and 3)to share my scrapbook pages, cards I create and any crafty ideas I come across.

Now I am off to enjoy another wonderful spring day!
