Sleepy Day

May 25, 2008 by Amy Leave a Comment

I ended up going just to Sunday School this morning, took a trip to CVS and came home and took a FIVE HOUR nap while the kids were at the zoo.  I completely missed choir and church this evening.  But ya’ll, it was NICE.  I can’t even remember the last time I had a Sunday afternoon nap.  The kids had a great day today and Lexi said she saw a “monkey with a pink hiney”.  Emma was excited to have seen the elephant and zebra.

Scott and I are both off tomorrow although Scott has to work tomorrow evening.  He’s doing much much better now although he has spent most of the day sleeping and went to bed early tonight as well.  I’m not sure if he’ll be up for a 12 hour night shift.

I think we might take the kids over to my sister’s neighborhood pool.  Besides that the only thing I need to do is clean the floors.

So Scott’s plane didn’t come in until about 9pm last night.  Much later than originally thought.  And bad news…Scott developed traveler’s diarrhea while he was there.  He was MISERABLE on all his flights and has been MISERABLE since coming home.  He went to the doctor this morning and got 3 prescriptions and they seemed to have helped but he is LOOPY and TIRED now.  I’m just glad he can finally get some rest.

I’m still in a bit of pain.  Today is better than yesterday but I still can’t walk or stand for very long.  Once I’m seated, I’m good.  

Today was a very easy going day mainly consisting of straightening up and taking care of everyone this morning.  This afternoon the IL’s took the kids, Scott finally napped and I snuck off to Mom’s to watch more of One Tree Hill Season 2.  

This evening we’ve just been around here.  The kids played outside a bit and I’ve been on the computer for hours now.  My OTH Blog went down yesterday because of some mail issue that can’t be fixed until Tuesday they tell me so I’m just taking the leap to move it to a bigger server since I’ve been wanting to do that anyway.  Everything is copying now so I’m hoping by tomorrow it will be back and functional.  This move will cut into my income every month but it’s better to be up during peak times..I either lose money when I’m down or be up and pay it upfront anyway.  If I pay it upfront, I don’t look such a loser site being down every week after the show.  All this work getting it moved will be worth it.  I just wasn’t really expecting to do it now.

Early tomorrow the IL’s are all going to the zoo and taking the kids.  I’m going to go to Sunday School and possibly stay for service.  Depends on how I feel.  Scott will obviously be staying home.  Should be another easy going day tomorrow.

SYTYCD

Thanks, Jaynee for reminding me to blog about So You Think You Can Dance premiere!   The video she has posted of Robert Muraine definitely was the highlight of the night.  He was just awesome.  I think I’ve watched him 3 or 4 times now and I still am in amazement.

I have to say though, parts of last night were NOT family-friendly.  I had to turn it off once the underpants man came out.  Lexi yells in to Emma, “Emma, there’s a boy with no clothes on!”  I quickly turn the tv off and Emma begs me to see it!  There were a couple other clips that were a little too much for the preschoolers.

Wasn’t Dominique funny watching the soccer player?  I love seeing him and Travis and all the “graduates”.  I hope some of them come on the show and do some dances.

Jonathan Anzalone the Italian was extremely entertaining and extremely good-looking and extremely cocky.  And not so good at “dancing”.  Mia’s freudian slip was HILARIOUS.

Phillip Chbeeb who was there for a second time was just awesome as well.

Should be a great season!

Grey’s Anatomy Finale

May 23, 2008 by Amy 3 Comments

I can not even begin to express how much I LOVED Grey’s last night.  The end I would say ranks up there with one of the top TV moments ever.  Seriously.  It was a beautifully, romantic moment that we’ve been waiting for really since the beginning of the show.  It was so wonderful to actually see that moment in the finale and not just an awful cliffhanger. Yes, there was part of a cliffhanger there but it was enough.  More than enough.  It was so wonderfully wonderful. And it wasn’t just the last few moments that was wonderful.  It was wonderful watching Meredith work through her mommy issues.  The moment Rebecca’s story was intertwined with Meredith’s with her once again mopping up blood on the floor of the exact same kitchen, well it was just divine writing right there.  And then the story of the two patients.  How cute were Mer/Der outside of the room protecting them?  And Derek’s anger of disappointing Meredith over and over.  His anger was actually awesome to watch.  And for Rose to hear it and realize what he was saying.  Derek’s fairytale was being crushed and it was heartbreaking to watch.  But the payoff was worth it.  Meredith got whole and healed and it was just wonderful.

The Callie/Hahn thing was completely unnecessary.  I do have to say I liked the writing of that though…the patient not wanting to show her love because she would be made fun of and how they both in the end went for it.  I don’t like that it was Callie and Hahn but it was well written.

George…poor guy it was 1 point.  But I liked he realized he IS great and now he gets to take the exams again!  Yay!

Chief demanding to come home…I agree with Adele…it’s about time he stood up for her!

And poor Alex.  My mouth hung open after he called Izzie a you-know-what.  What a jerk.  He ruined any good vibes I had from him taking care of Rebecca.  But in the end, broken Alex broke down and Izzie was there.  Izzie’s always there.  I love them together so it was great to see the kiss but it was for all the wrong reasons.  Maybe someday.  Maybe after he goes and visits Meredith’s shrink.

Yang was so funny this episode and LOVED how she told off Hahn.   Good to see a not whiny, dark Yang.

And maybe I could write another page on this episode.  Because it was just that wonderful.  Definitely one for the books.
