popping in again.....it is rainy here, and the famous Detroit riverfront fireworks are tonight.....and the only one that seems to have taken a nap today was Marissa. so she will get to watch the fireworks if she is still awake!

SuzieQ~ that picture of you and Gaby is very cute!

Francie~ That is so exciting about the homecoming! And that dress is very pretty! I have that site saved on my computer and I keep forgetting to look at it, so when I have more time later, I will go and look at it.

Hello ladies...

Just a quickie for now...will be back tomorrow morning to catch up. I've had Chase here since Friday evening trying to keep him entertained, that and had the yard sale. He just went home at 5'ish so I am free! Lol

Hoping everyone is having a great day! See ya tomorrow OH...SUSAN...love the avatar!

Glory Be....I was starting to wonder what Chase did to you Cristina. You were gone so long! lol

I bought Gaby some water guns, BIG mistake!! I don't even like guns but Beck was buying one to play w/ her teen girlfriends. Anyway, now we are all wet. I guess by the weekend and the 90 degree weather we are suppose to get ..........wet will be a good thing . blah - blah....

I am glad you survived Chase!

Mindee- Enjoy the fireworks!!

Gaby had a great day of school and now I need to dry her off and wind her down. Looking forward to The Bachelorette tonight! Go Jesse!
Dinner was chicken stew again, it is good but honest I am TIRED of veggies. I bought some 0 calorie water (raspberry flavor) and it is a nice change, I didn't see much sugar in it either.

Sue - You ok?? Miss hearing from you.

Night everyone!

we had a great time watching the fireworks here at home.......I was right.....the only one that was still awake to watch them was Marissa. She had more fun playing with me and her favorite ball, then the fireworks. But if somebody would clap on tv, she would clap.

Well..I didnt buy that dress. I just bought a top and some shoes. We're gonna be standing pretty close to the water..and its usually cold in that area. So better to be safe than sorry.


About the Bachelorette. I cant believe DeAnna didnt know what the Space Needle was. Omg..I get more and more disappointed in her after each episode. That was so sad when Jason said goodbye to his son, that just broke my heart. And when Jeremy read out of his journal..omg, I was bawling!!! Jesse's dad was pretty cool. Grahm had some nice parents too. And a really pretty house!! I kinda figured he'd be going home. He needs to work on his issues before he gets into a serious relantionship. I wonder what the letter said.

Anyways..Fonzo kept calling me all day, lol. It was nice being able to talk to him a lot. But pretty soon..he'll be back in my arms. Yay! LoL!! I hurt my back pretty bad tonight. Just everything went totally numb..ugh, I was dying on the couch. Then my effin bladder kicked in and I had to force myself to get up. But ya..it doesnt hurt so much right now. But I'm gonna gonna go lay down in bed right now. I am so tired.

Nighty nite all!!!

The Bachelorette- I agree Francie. How can DeAnna not know the space needle?? Of course if you noticed she didn't know Graham's last name either when he gave her a basketball jersey to wear w/ his last name on it.
I don't know how she thinks he was the one she was falling in love with out of the 4 remaining, when he doesn't "open up". I think she was in lust and not in love. ((I watch Dr.Phil)).

I am glad Graham was sent packing! Cut and pasting his "letter" that he gave to DeAnna, I thought it was funny.

Deanna,

I don't know where to start. I wish I could have expressed myself more with you, but as you know I can't help but internalize things. I think you are a very special woman and if I am not given a rose tonight I will always regret not letting you know how I feel. I wore a red sweater tonight to symbolize how I feel for you. I know I am still not telling you how I feel but it is very hard for me to do (because I internalize things). I just want you to know that I will show up at the rose ceremony with a big smile on my face because I am happy with what I feel for you, even though I cannot express what that is. Even as I write this letter I am having second thoughts about what I am writing. I know that after knowing you for more than 4 weeks which is a really, really long time that I still have feelings for you and wish you knew how I felt. But I shouldn't really have to explain because I internalize things. I hope this clears up any questions you have about me.
Good luck and take care,
Graham
p.s. Thanks for the "SMOKIN' HOT!" comment! That is one thing I am sure about.

Jesse had a very nice family. People say he is immature for his age but actually he seems the most mature in wanting a friendship first w/ DeAnna. When he kissed her though I couldn't look, it looked sloppy and it was like watching my brother make out. ewwww.

Jeremy was wierd((ok, I just don't like him!!-lol)). I wanted to reach out and tear off those notes off his wall in his living room. Why are they still up there?? It must mean he is a perv. lol
His brothers were jerky. Sweet that he shared his note w/ Deanna though.

Jesse - (edited for correction,)Jason- What is w/ the leap frog thing?? I never have seen a family do that and his father was odd in his affection for DeAnna. I like Jesse though and it was kind of cute he jumped up and down when he saw DeAnna....he really needs to get out more and not hang out w/ a 3 year old so much.

anyway - I have no idea who she is going to pick. I think Jesse has the least hang ups and baggage. I also like his family the best, I cried when his parents where telling DeAnna about him.

k- my review, like anyone cares. lol

bbl

First of all..where did you find that letter at?? LoL!! Graham sorta repeats himself a few times. We get the effin point. Him & DeAnna would've been perfect for each other. And ya..why didnt she know his last name?? Maybe they dont do last names?? And I think you ment Jason for the last one..not Jesse. Oh ya..Jeremy's brothers were jerky. God, I'm lucky I have nice BILS..of course, I have evil SILS, so I guess it evens out, lol.

What are the chances that she'll actually marry the dude she picks? I mean come on..I bet they'll be broken up within weeks after the show is over. Just like everyone else (except for Trista. She knew what she wanted).

Oh ya..and DeAnna mentions Brad way too many times. Maybe she's not over getting dumped!!

Oh, sure. We can share bodily fluid but I can't know your last name. I just think DeAnna was too busy kissing Graham to bother with minor details like that Francie. lol
And, really I think she liked Graham best because it helped keep the J's (Jesse, Jason, and Jeremy) straight in her little *let me know how you feel mind and oh ya.....I don't wanna lead you on like Brad led me on....rambles.
I am glad you thought Jeremy's brothers were jerky, the "we are here for one side and it ain't you..."...something like that. It is like....... whatever.
I thought Jesse's father was the coolest. Oh, the letter came from the abc board for the Bachelorette.

So, did you find a dress???

something is wrong with my back, mid way. It started hurting last night when I breathe. *wah. I took tylenol so hope that helps!

Had lunch of chicken and yellow squash, yum, yum. Doing laundry and waiting to go get my Gaby. That is my day!

Hi Gals...just stopping by for a quick hi...it's vbs week and life is crazy! The more I watch Bachelorette, the less impressed I am with DeAnna. I mean, does she not watch Grey's Anatomy? She seemed to have seen Sleepless in Seattle...soo..um..hello...Space Needle? What a dingbat. I think the thing with Graham was to show him who was boss...she needs it to be all about her and Graham is a person who opens up over time. Bad fit for the show however. So as it stands now, I'm rooting for Jesse...he's loaded, he has a direction, great values, great family, not whoring himself out to get ahead with Deanna. Jeremy's brothers just sunk him I'm afraid, but Deanna could pick him and never have to lift a finger again in her life. I think she'll dump Jason because she will view the kid as competition after awhile. She definitely wants it to be all about her. She will be in for a rude awakening when she has 3 kids by the time she's 30,lol!

Susan- LOVED the letter! Sounded just like him, lol!

Ok- I'm getting booted. My DD gets these cards from VBS with computer game codes and I promised her a chance to play before we go to pick up DS from the afternoon session.

Ciao!

Katy - VBS sounds like fun! I am sure Deanna while driving up to meet Jason would have seen the dang needle hovering in the sky. She could have asked someone else in the car what it was, I mean it isn't like it is hiding. She just sounded dumb.
And didn't Deanna give Ty a golfball for a gift?? Can't a 3 year old swallow that?? Come on Mindee.......help me out here.
anyway - it was fun to watch, I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Rach was even asking if I had been drinking. haha.

k- clothes due for the dryer.

toodles.

Hello ladies...

Sorry for yet another quickie. Spent too much time elsewhere and then remembered I was supposed to pick up a couple of things from the store...almost forgot. Went upstairs and saw something that reminded me, lol. Took forever in the store...geez, some people are so freakin slow! Not that I was in a hurry but come on.

SUSAN...yeppers, i survived the Chase, barely. Char asked me if I thought he had ADD and I said DEFINITELY! I have never seen a kid who cannot be still for 2 minutes and I really do mean that. And he has to be doing something constantly...every minute of every day. She asked if we hooked up his xbox and I told her yes but I limited the time because I don't think a kid should sit in front of those stupid fighting games for hours upons hours...I think she uses it as a babysitter. Anyway...received your card yesterday... I LOVED the pictures! Especially the pooper scooper one, lol...too cute! Anywho...

Hello to everyone else. I will be back later to post some more. Don't miss me while I am gone, lol!

Wait...thats what she gave Ty?? A golfball????? I thought she said a gobstopper. You know those candy things. I was all thinking.."why would you give that to a little kid?!?!" LOL!!! But I do agree..she wont pick Jason, cuz it has to be all about her. She's a little too self centered. Jeremy's life is too perfect. I dunno..I couldnt stand all that perfection. Especially his home. I'd be all paranoid I'd get something dirty. Did anyone notice that he kinda looks like his dog?? Lmao!! She should've kept Sean around..then they could all be about each other and nobody else. I love Jesse..but I dont want him with DeAnna. He's too sweet for her. And she's just...not good enough for him. If that makes any sense.


Susan~I didnt buy a dress..just a top with some cute shoes. I'm gonna wear them with pants.

just popping in while I have a chance.......

oops! chance lost, the boys are beating each other up

Hey Cristina!!! Stop and smell the roses every now & then!!

Francie - I had to go check the bible of the Bachelorette and it says golf ball in a thread...cut & pasted below.......

Jason is a big golfer, and he did say that the first time Ty crawled was on the golf course. And maybe Jason has told her that Ty's favorite color is blue. Who knows.

Odd gift. I liked the star thing better but even Ty was confused about that...."where is the star??".....up in the sky, you can't actually play w/ it. lol

Cristina!! We miss you!

Mindee- Tell the kids you are on the computer doing important stuff.

I better go. I am all confused when I am suppose to pick up Gaby....sheesh.
