Alex is 5!

It’s hard to believe my baby is 5 years old. He’s such a little man!

We had his party at Bounce City this year, one of those indoor inflatable, bouncy house places. The kids had a blast and everyone was thoroughly worn out by the end of the evening.

DVR Failed Me Tonight!

N24WS7HVY9UA (pay no attention to this-it's a confirmation link for signing up on Technorati.com)

I am so pissed tonight!  While getting the kids to bed, I was recording Dancing with the Stars - like I do every Monday night!  I noticed that the red Record light wasn't on, so I checked out my Recorded List, and sure enough it showed that it was recording. But when I came downstairs to watch it, it was gone! I don't know what happened, but now I have to wait until tomorrow (or whenever) to watch the show online from ABC's website. No luck tonight with You Tube or any other sites for that matter. Sorry - just needed to vent!

Hunka Hunka Burnin’...I mean, Raw…Meat?

My First Steak on a Stone Experience

Anyone who knows me knows that I like my steak well-done. Not medium, not medium-well, but WELL DONE, as in no pink, got it? You can imagine my surprise when we attended our niece’s wedding rehearsal dinner at Steak on a Stone and I was informed that I would be served a raw steak!

Transformed

My four-year-old son Alex loves Transformers. He loves everything about them – the movies, the games, the action figures – you name it. If it has Transformers on it, he wants it.

We watch the movies together, we do the puzzles together and, of course, we get down on the floor and play with the action figures together. I have to admit, Daddy is much better at this game than I am. And my son is quick to correct me if I call a Decepticon by an Autobot name or, heaven forbid, forget that Optimus Prime is the leader of the good guys.

Job Search Continues…

I was determined to get back into gear with the job search this week, but I’m so frustrated with the job listings. I’ve been looking through the Plain Dealer classifieds (pitiful) as well as online with Careerbuilder, Monster and Craig’s List. It really is depressing to think that there are so many crappy jobs out there!

Catching Up: American Idol & DWTS

Busy weekend...no time to post...here's my catch-up on my favorites. I'm 2 for 2!!! Shannen Dougherty got the boot on DWTS and Didi Benami was sent packing on Idol. Can't wait to see what this week brings!

Hope you had a Happy Easter!

Break is Over...Back to Reality

Well, Spring Break ends today. Back to the real world tomorrow: school, work (well, in my case look for work), packing lunches, etc. We always think breaks go by too quickly, but I am actually looking forward to getting back into a routine tomorrow.
