1. My TT is going to be random…so hold on to your knickers!

2. Do you wear knickers?

3. Seriously now…I have spent the last week fighting a bout with diverticulitis. It’s been rough and not something I’d wish on my worse enemy! All I have to say is thank heaven for pain pills and nausea meds!

4. Since I have had some down time I have watched some good movies! If you haven’t seen, “Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day“ I highly suggest it! Very good movie and the clothes of that era are amazing!

5. Another good movie was “The Matchmaker” starring Janeane Garofalo and David O’Hara. This is not a newer release, but it’s a great movie and it was filmed in Ireland so the scenery…beautiful!

6. I also watched “Waking Ned Devine” (this and the previous mentioned were recommended by an old friend) which I found hilarious! Need a laugh and don’t mind heavy Irish brogues this movie is so worth it!

7. I finally watched the ”Sex and the City” movie….it was good…kind of what I expected though. If you liked the series, you need to see the movie, just because.

8. My favorite niece turned thirteen this week and I found the coolest gifts for her via Etsy! Seeing that she is a Twilight fanatic, I was looking for something that was Twilight related…well I found it!

Sweet, huh?

9. We talked about Twilight so much at family gatherings we even got my mom to read the books! How cool is that?

10. Ok now I’m going to be a little selfish here…see I would really like to win some tickets to a concert that Shellie over at This Eclectic Life is having so I’m going to “advertise” here….(oh, and you can enter too )!

11. If you click here you get all the details on how to enter to win two tickets to see Celtic Thunder. Plus to make it easy here are the dates and show times to see if they are playing near you!

12. Want to check out Celtic Thunder, then click here to check out their MySpace for some great videos and information! They are really good!

13. And last but certainly not least, want another reason to see Celtic Thunder besides their wonderful voices and music……Men in kilts!!!!

This photo was taken in a field of Texas Bluebonnets, which bloom every April. You know Spring has arrived when you are driving down Texas roads and see patches of blue along the sides of the road. It’s a very common sight to see families pulled over on the sides of roads posing for pictures among the Bluebonnets. This grand beauty is also the state flower of Texas and just one of the many things I love about Texas and Spring!
