Did you all watch the "American Idol Gives Back" last night? Man I am such a sap and sucker for those kinds of shows. I DVR'd it and then watched it a couple of times. When I see people in need, especially those kids, my heart just breaks. I am then again reminded how lucky and blessed I am to live in this country and that I have a roof over my head, that I am able to feed my family, have health insurance for us and many, many more blessings. I am lucky to have gone through to college and am blessed to know my children can grow up and be anything they want to be! Life is good for us...and I am indeed thankful.
Plus seeing my boyfriend didn't hurt a bit....man do I love that Brad Pitt!
And do you ever watch Oprah's Big Give...that is another show that I never miss. I love the spirit of giving and cry each and every episode. It is incredibly inspiring and I want to be able to give back in any way I can. That show makes me want to be better...watch it if you haven't had the chance to. We can make a change...we can help those in need...try it, it feels so good!

Let me guess...your boyfriend wore that hat just for you. :) Last year we called in and donated. I like to say we saved 25 lives. It's pretty neat.
you know that i am always wary of telling bloggers that i don't watch this as i'm afraid i'll be shunned. i did, however, tivo this last night and haven't had a chance to watch--this weekend.
i love bratt pitt too.
We watched that extraordinary show Wed night too...first time I have seen a conservative Republican on a show with liberal Hollywood! Okay, I also looked at your Florida pics on this blog...I am in one but so is Jim so he's still ahead of me.. Your neglected Mother
mmmm..he is too yummy!! I watched it too, it was pretty good. how did primary's go, i wouldn't know since you never called me back...LOSER
I love both of those shows too. I'm such a sap, Nick was teasing me because I literally had tears streaming down my face for 2 1/2 hours....it's heart breaking and makes you appreciate all we have. Oh- and I love Oprah's show...I never miss it. After the show I stay up hald the night thinking of all the things I would do (as if I need another thing to make me lose sleep), but i love it! How did Primary Children's go? Let's do lunch this week. I'll call you!
PS tell Hannah I hope she feels better. I had mono soo bad in HS I had to get hospitalized (twice actually, so make sure she drinks alot - I was so dehyrated - IV's YUCK!). Hugs!!
