Or, in other words, the night of “Phantom of the Opera.” I loved this show. I have been looking forward to ever since last week’s results show. And though a strange choice of mentor for a self-proclaimed “pop” show, I thought it was a smart move, considering the Idol finalists who’ve had great success on… Continue reading AI Predictions: The music of Sir Andrew Lloyd Weber
DWTS Predictions
I’m getting this in just under the wire! I managed to nail the bottom two last week – let’s see if I can do it again! Safe: I wasn’t wowed by Cristian’s performance like the judges. I thought his footwork was a little off, his frame seemed small, and he didn’t hold his posture as… Continue reading DWTS Predictions
Thanks for the warning…
SUMMARY OF THE PAST YEAR ON MY COMPUTER ! I must send my thanks to whoever sent me the one about rat poop in the glue on envelopes because I now use a wet towel on every envelope that needs sealing. Also, now I scrub the top of every can I open for the same… Continue reading Thanks for the warning…

I’ve got just one word for you…

Where is your cell phone? purse 2. Your significant other? work 3. Your hair? bedhead 4. Your mother? alive 5. Your father?… Continue reading I’ve got just one word for you…
AI Predictions: Mariah Carey
It was a night of contradictions. Obviously the producers don’t listen to the judges. For seven seasons, we’ve had it beaten through our heads by our three favorite Coke-cup wielding music-industry experts that there are certain undeniable, indisputable, irrefutable, unwritten “rules” regarding creating a performance that will WOW the masses: 1) be unique, yet true… Continue reading AI Predictions: Mariah Carey
DWTS: The night of skimpy costumes
Yeah, like the professionals wear non-skimpy costumes. I’ll make it quick. Not haiku-quick, mind you. That would actually take more time. Last night: Rumba. Samba. Good: Meh: In danger: I fear Priscilla will be leaving us tonight.
Lessons from a Paper Wasp
This week in my Beth Moore Bible study, A Woman’s Heart, God’s Dwelling Place, we reached the point where the tabernacle was completed. The curtains were ready to be hung. The lampstand was ready to be lit. The altar of incense and the table of showbread were ready to be placed in their proper locations.… Continue reading Lessons from a Paper Wasp

March Mudness
Well the Big Dance is over – for another year at least. Though it was an exciting finish, and I can take great consolation in knowing that Matt’s pick did not win it all, things were over well before tonight’s finals. Our children, despite valiant efforts and loyalty to Dad’s alma mater, were out of… Continue reading March Mudness
