Prop 8

I normally do not go crazy over politics. I hate discussing them with people as it is alway a difference of opinion between people. The prop 8 commercials are driving me insane. We saw the one yesterday where the little girl brings home a book from school and tells her mother that she learned that 2 princes can marry each other and so she can marry another girl (this happened in Massachusetts where they do not have the same laws that we have). So basically the people for prop 8 are telling me that if it passes our kids will learn all about gay marriage in school. Well Calfornia has a law that kids learning about health and marriage has to have a signed permission slip from their parents in order to stay in the class. I read the story about the teacher who got married in San Francisco and her first grade students where there. One of the mothers of the students came up with the idea of the kids going and 2 students did not go because their parents did not approve. So to me that says that yes parents do have a choice. I know people will say, you don't have any kids yet so what does it matter. Well some of you don't know that I do have a gay step brother and if he was to decide that he wanted to get married I would support him 100%.

Here is the link to the story that I read

Read it if you want to or don't read it. I know that everyone will be voting the way they feel. Now I have shared my opinion on the subject and I really don't want to talk about it much longer. I am now just counting down the days until those commercials are no longer on tv.

Bath and Body Works

I went to Bath and Body works today because I got an email that said their really good 3 wick candles were on sale, once I got there I found out that the sale was over, so no new candle for me. I did get another surprise though, Twisted Pepperment is back out for sale!!!! My favorite winter scent, the lotion is cooling and really helps with dry skin. Sincee the foaming hand soap was on sale I got some peppermint hand soap and boy does it smell good. Last year I bought the peppermint room fragence oil for my oil burner and I have managed to save some but I know that it will be gone soon. I am going to have to get some more. So if anyone is wondering if I need anything from Christmas, yes I know it is going to be a cheap Christmas this year, I will take anything Peppermint from Bath and Body Works.

CSI

Did anyone else watch CSI last night???? I normally love this show and just can not get enough of it, but boy was I ticked off last night. I still can not believe that they killed of Warrick. The episode was very sad with them trying to find his killer and plan his funeral. Of course it was nothing like ER last week when Dr. Pratt died and was such a tear jerker episode that I will never watch that episode again (kind of the same way I was when Dr. Greene died like 8 years ago). But CSI will not be the same again without Warrick and Grisom is leaving the show too.

On a happier note this weekend is the Highland games at the fairgrounds. That means lots of men in skirts, lots of drinking and hopefully a lot of fun.

Cinderella Update

I have spent a lot of time today searching for a blue dress that will fit Jeremy and have not found anything. I did get a pattern for the dress so I am going to make one. The pattern is small so I will have to enlarge it in order to make a bigger dress. The funny thing is when I would go into a store and say what I needed most people laughed and thought it was a great costume idea. To bad that no one cares men's dresses!

Updated Music

So I thought that I would add some Halloween music to my playlist. In searching for songs I came across Chucky Cheese Hell, which I have never heard before and I laughed the whole way through it. I apologize now if it insults anyone who likes chucky cheese but I had to share it with you all. I also added Barbie Girl because it is another dumb and funny song. Just trying to make everyone smile!!!

Jeremy

Jeremy has started a blog!! I have added a link to his blg on my list. check it out, maybe he will even update it once in a while!!!

Halloween is coming!!!!!

Today I decided to clean up the house and put up some Halloween decorations. I went outside to the shed to get my Halloween box and man it is freaking hot outside. We do not have air conditioning in the house and it is starting to get hot inside too. So what am I going to do now? Well I am going to still clean but make it going through boxes of junk that need to be gotten rid of and trying to stay cool. It's October it is not supposed to be hot like this.

Jeremy and I are going to try to go to Walmart tonight to look for stuff for his Cinderella costume. I know why go to that bad store...it's cheap and I don't want to spend a lot of money on this. Maybe we can find an adult Cinderella costume and just make some adjustments to it so it will fit him. Jeremy called me from work yesterday to let me know that Cinderella wears a choker necklace, I told him the same thing about 4 days ago. I guess he was looking at Cinderella online and found that out. Maybe I should get him to write his own post about Cinderella.
