Someday, I want to be THIS GOOD with Shadow Puppets!

Most of you have probably seen this before, so this is for the 3 of you that haven't!! :) I could watch this over and over.... come to think about it.. I pretty much have which is why I'm adding it to my Blog. This way I have it forever and can watch it nonstop! :) What a talent! His name is Raymond Crowe. Who knew shadow puppets could look so real! :) I'm gonna be practicing and developing my shadow skills.. and when I'm GOOD, I'll post my OWN video. :)

Happy Heart Day! Be Mine!!

"My Funny Valentine" by Butterscotch!! This is my favorite rendition! She is the voice, the percussion and the piano all in 1. AMAZING!!!! :) This is kinda funny cause the sound and video are slightly off so it kinda has that foreign film feel to it!! It's the BEST! LOL!
Happy Love Day Everyone! :)

I LOVE YOU! :) Ohh quit it.... I do too!!

Enjoy!

I digress #1 - Marbles Champion!

Okay, so I've been shuffling through some old memories of mine and now I want to journal them and add them to my Blog. Just silly old stuff.. nothing really that will benefit anyone but ME! But this is memory number 1!! :)

I won the “Marbles” Championship when I was in 5^th grade. I was awarded a trophy with this awesome glass boulder on top! Do you remember playing marbles when you were in grade school? If you don’t, then either your school was seriously lacking in the REAL academics area or I am MUCH older than you. We had the transparent marbles, the cat-eye marbles, the white non-transparent calico marbles, the peawee’s, the steely’s, the boulders.. etc. Marbles were a HOT commodity and we would trade with people on a daily basis. “I’ll trade you one of my big boulders for 2 of your steely’s.” haha.. wow, the memories. I still have that little wooden trophy somewhere, although.. for some reason the boulder is missing on top!! I must have needed it for an important game or something. Haha!

Stay tuned for "I digress #2" :)

My early morning commute PAYOFFS!!

As much as I REALLY DISLIKE getting up at 5:30 every morning and facing an hour of rush hour.. it does have a couple payoffs for me. :) I get to see the most AMAZING SUNRISES!! They are breathtaking at times and I find myself being very distracted by them. (and taking lots of pictures) :) I allow myself to gaze at them in wonderment while I'm driving because most of the time in rush hour, I'm NOT driving.. just sitting there wishing I was!

Another payoff for waking up so early is that I get to see all the birds flying over the freeway when I'm driving through the Reservation. I LOVE IT and I am captivated any time I see a huge flock. Mostly I see geese flying in the V formation. It's so fascinating to me. Why do they do that? It's so odd, yet amazing to me. I love it!

Also, I'm a big fan of rain, clouds and wind. :) I suppose you could say that I love the ELEMENTS!!! (well, the AZ elements...) One of my FAVORITE things about a really really REALLY windy day of driving on the 101 through the REZ is when the dry tumbleweeds are ripped from the earth and with FURY they get blown onto the freeway which starts a fun game of tumbleweed dodge-ball with all the cars!! hahaha! I find myself laughing so hard watching the cars try to slow down or speed up so they don't get hit! Once the large dry tumbleweed slams into a car it explodes and resembles a handful of pixie sticks being tossed in the air and blown away in the wind. It is my favorite thing EVER!!! LOL. I've lost the game a few times and have been hit myself with some tumbleweeds but it makes me laugh that much harder! :) Okay, so maybe I have to find things on my commute that ENTERTAIN ME!! :) LOVE ME!
