Whoooo-hooooo! This is one of my all-time, favorite movies! How could you not love it?? I must say that I am trilled to be this kiss. I think this is one of the most romantic, passionate kisses ever!! *sigh* Every time I watch this movie I get butterflies at this scene!

Take the test and let me know in the comments what kiss you are. Steamy? Sweet? Spontaneous? Don't be shy!

What Type of Writer Should You Be?

People have been commenting that I should write. Write what? I think to myself. So, when I saw this test I just had to take it. I'm a little surprised at the results!

You Should Be a Film Writer

You don't just create compelling stories, you see them as clearly as a movie in your mind. You have a knack for details and dialogue. You can really make a character come to life. Chances are, you enjoy creating all types of stories. The joy is in the storytelling. And nothing would please you more than millions of people seeing your story on the big screen!

What Kind of Chocolate Are You?

You are Milk Chocolate

A total dreamer, you spend most of your time with your head in the clouds. You often think of the future, and you are always working toward your ideal life. Also nostalgic, you rarely forget a meaningful moment... even those from long ago.

I'M OFF TO PLAY!!

The temperature here is supposed to reach 33 degrees Celsius (not sure what that is in Fahrenheit) and that means it's the perfect day to spend cooling off in the pool! So, we're off to spend some time relaxing and swimming. I'm hopeful this day will go smoother than my last attempt. LOL!

Have a great day, all!

He's a Big Kid Now!

We've entered a new phase of life. My three-and-a-half year old has now officially gained "big boy" status. And I'm not talking potty trained.

The other day, he realized he was finally tall enough to climb the door jambs. He puts his hands and feet spread-eagle and then slowly inches his way up the frame. This is a huge accomplishment! Last year he was jealous of his older brother, but now figures he's a big boy too!

And I have hands and feet prints UP my doorways! You know what I see in the future? I see them getting big enough to climb the walls in the hallway! LOL!

Inside the heart of a man...

...lives unending love and loyalty to *insert sport of choice here*. For my DH it's hockey and, more specifically, the Edmonton Oilers. I have never seen such deep devotion and pride. It's humbling really.

This past week began the start of hockey trades. I don't understand a thing about it except that it keeps my husband glued to the computer for hours on end. And when he's not on the computer, he's watching TSN or Sportsnet....while listening to live feed on the Internet! I have had to chuckle at hubby running to the computer every few minutes for the most recent news. And it's updated every 2 to 3 minutes!

He has lived and breathed hockey for the last week. I find it amusing that it has so consumed his mind. We'll be in the van driving somewhere and he starts to mumble about deadlines, possible trades, caps etc. He turns to me and blurts out stats and numbers like I should understand this strange language he's speaking.

For the most part I've managed to subdue the laughter and I try to appear interested. But there have been times when the humour has gotten the best of me. It's just too funny! You would think the love of his life was coming to town he's that excited. But of course, I live with him. LOL! Oh, what passion!

But, I'm hardly one to talk. Nothing is more exciting to me than the release of a long awaited book by a most beloved author! :-) Okay, okay...and chocolate and coffee! I guess everyone has their weaknesses!

The Next Picasso

I’m a proud mother today! Well, I’m a proud mother everyday, but today I would like to display for you my son’s artwork.

He drew this the other day on his Doodle Pro and, since I can’t hang it on the fridge, I’m going to hang it here. On my blog. Cyberspace is my virtual “fridge.”

He’s five years old and I think this is genius for his age. Perhaps because it is better than I could do. LOL!

I'll explain the picture for those who may not be up on their Veggie Tales. This is a picture of Larry Boy - notice the super-suction ears. My son drew this picture from memory...he watches a lot of Larry Boy. For those of you who frequent this blog, you know my son's obsession with superheroes. It is no surprise that he drew a hero.

What is surprising is the detail that he included. There's the pointy thing on the top of his head, the mask, the super-suction ears, the mouth with one tooth, the jacket with it's ties and the belt. I think this is pretty impressive for a five year old. 'Course, I also thought those first scribbles were worthy of display. LOL!

Okay, have I bragged enough??
