Land of the Lost

My husband, son and I went to see Land of the Lost. I had read a couple of reviews that were not very good. It was neither good nor bad, it was just...feh... I am a Will Ferrell fan and thought he did a good job as he always does. I did not like the character of Chaka and was amazed that in this day and age movie makers still think we need this groping chauvinistic character and that it is entertaining. It's not...it's ridiculous and insulting...and it takes a lot to insult me...

My husband was annoyed at some woman that was laughing loudly throughout the movie. He claims she was not laughing at anything funny but I think it is because she kept waking him up.

I have decided to make my "The Secret" plan is to get paid, and well, for my writing. What this means to me? I need to start writing some more on this blog! We went grocery shopping yesterday and outside of the store they were having a book sale. The first book I laid eyes on was how to get paid for Magazine writing. Now that's a sign! It is dated 1993 but I can still take away some great tips, right? I also found the Hillary Clinton book, I love her, and a Leslie Sansom book on walking for my husband.

My husband is intending on participating in the 5 Mile run with my son and me but he is about 255 so he needs to start slow and only walk at first. If he keeps it up consistently, he could become a runner. Now to keep my son on board...

I am doing a wedding in Westport on July 4th and she wants a more traditional type of ceremony but still short so I need to work on that today and also creating the medication card for my mother-in-law.

I wrote such a huge amount on my other blog, seekermommyrunning, that I have burned myself out for now. I shall be back with more....=O)

I haven't written in a bit

I haven't written in this blog for a couple of days due to focusing on my running blog. If you read that one, I haven't written a bunch either. Sorry to say that this one will be short as I have to take my mother in law to the doctor's.

I'll be back.....

Underworld: Rise of the Lycans and vampire books

Wow! Great movie!! I know I liked it more than the second one and maybe more than the first one? The acting was great, the sets were awesome and it was a darn good story.

I'm have been a bit of a vampire/werewolf fiend reading almost everything I can get my hands on. Although I do have to admit, the stories are drying up or maybe I am getting bored. I know that I could NOT get through the Anita Blake series. I loved the first 3 books and went out and bought the entire series. I am stuck in the book where some Victorian vampire from England is messing with her mind while she is in the back seat of an SUV. I tried, I really really did, to get through that sequence but I just couldn't do it. The author started getting a bit too freaky. I bought all of her other series, of the Fey, and could not get through book one. L.A. Banks' vampire series had me until Book 3 and I own the entire series of that. I am an avid reader but there are just some books that I just cannot get through...Yeesh! I should sell the series on EBay or Amazon. Someone let me know if you want them!

The JD Robb series is fab! Never have been bored with that. I also like anything Nora Roberts has done when it comes to otherworldly stuff. Nora's new book, Vision in White, is terrific. Although it has nothing to do with otherworldly affairs. It's the story of four women who work together and to plan the best weddings for brides, and find love in the process, that will be a 4-part series. I'm an Officiant and was thinking of branching out into wedding planning by studying a few courses when my job no longer wanted me so that went out the window. Nepotism is alive and well at that job! Oh well, at least I got unemployment off of them!

I used to be an avid writer but lost my way in my 20's...stupid, stupid girl. Now all these years later I am deciding to pick it back up. Hmmm....maybe I will read, one day, someone raving (or not) about my book series! =O)
