American Idol >

I have been a fan of A.I. since the year 2004, when Fantasia won. So, it's no secret I'm watching it tonight. Today is elimination night. Who will be sent home today? I was hoping Kristy last wk & hope so again. (My i's jumped out when she told Simon Cowell that she would "blow his socks off".) WTF was that? I guess there are 2 ways to interpret that. I also think that the finale will be between Brooke & David Cook; although, the 17y old David A. is a little cutie & has a great voice. Let's see what happenz.
Anyway, today was park day. It was a beautiful day (almost 90 degrees Fahrenheit), but what made it good was the breeze. I got on the swings today while my kids played & I just started reminiscing, I guess. Just thinking about how much we've accomplished so far & what we still need to accomplish.
Thinkin' about people that have passed on (I actually dreamed last night with one of my ex-boyfriends who died in the year 2000)!! The really weird thing is, it's not the 1st dream I have of him. It's freakin me out a bit since we were only a couple for a year & that was back in 1992!
I also thought about "what if" situations. This is a result of a recent death in my husband's family which actually occured 5 mos ago. His sister's husband died from advanced cancer (they used 2 live 5 mins away from us) & he was only 42!! Father of 6( of which 3 kids are with Eggie's sister). She ended up selling the home next to us & had to move back to her old home in Orlando (which they were renting). She's actually doing pretty good, though. Anyway, life is strange sometimes; we never know what's coming & then sometimes, it's 2 late. That's why it's important to:
Remember your family first.......
