I read the news this morning and saw something on CNN.com that says Classic toys hot again this Christmas... I have issues with the toys being called Classic!!! I played with some of these toys when I was a kid... guess that makes me classic...wwaaahhhhhh!! Oh, well guess I should start accepting that I am getting old! :o) I have to say that I am excited about some of the come backs though. My girls love to play with the My little pony toys and also with the Care bear toys... and I do not think that Hot Wheels or Legos ever went out of style, nor do I think that they ever will! My hubby STILL loves to play with the legos and hot wheels. Of course he claims it to be boy time with our son, but I think that he does it because he enjoys it too!! And of course I LOVE the leapfrog toys... I have to say they are INCREDIBLE!!! My kiddos have the leappad and they love it. It is a lot of fun for them. My youngest has the activity table and has a blast with it and there are many other things that I would love to get the kids that they make... especially the globe (that may go on the Christmas list for the kids this year) .
Then there is the issue of the Gay marriage thing that is going on in Massachusetts. I am sorry but I do not think that they should be able to get married, be together fine, but why should they get to marry? It is not right, not right at all. I do not mind gays, I have friends and family that are gay, but why should they be allowed to get married and have it seen as legal when it is wrong?? If 2 people are together and they love each other and are gay why do they need to see it recognized? What they are doing is not right so just leave it at that... Granted I am not the one that is going to be judging them in the end, but why make a big deal of it? They should not be given marriage licenses in my opinion. I will not go on and on about it, it is not my lifestyle and I have to say that I have a religious view about it... and I know that I am not going to be the judge in the end... it just irks me.....
I do have something else to say... it is going to be a broad statement and not directed at anyone, just one of those things that I have to say .... PEOPLE need to GROW UP!!!! GET OUT OF THE STUPID HIGH SCHOOL BS!!!!!! YOU CANNOT CONTROL another human being so QUIT trying!!!!! If you have a problem take care of it yourself. It sucks that people are always trying to make themselves feel better by putting someone else down. People like that are life suckers, they suck the life out of other people and try and belittle them, granted some people ignore it and just move on, but for others it can be an issue and it sucks that people try and do that to others, especially people that they call their friends... Friends should be treated with respect, love, and trust... PERIOD! If you take this personally then maybe you should evaluate your friendships if not then I just wasted your time :o) So sorry :o) But I had to get it said and it is something that I have wanted to say but have not. I will say again that this is NOT directed at anyone. I just wanted it said. I love all of my friends dearly and have had some of them for over 20 yrs, I consider myself a good friend to others. I am not the most personable person, nor am I the nicest person, but I am who I am and that is how it goes. I am a picky person when it comes to my friends, trust is a major part of friendship and so is RESPECT if you do not have those you do not have a genuine friendship, in my opinion. You should not have to walk on eggshells around someone because you are afraid of hurting their wittle feewings or upseting them, if you are not able to be yourself around someone you are NOT being true to yourself or to your so-called friend. With that said I will step off my soap box.
Oh and dear sweet friend Jeff... my Blues are still in first place AND first in the WHOLE league.... where are your wings?? What are THEY doing??? :o) Gotta LOVE the bitter sweet rivalry that we have. :o) We will not even get into football since that would be unfair... the Lions have sucked for so long that it is not right to go into that one :o) At least we have hockey to fight over :o)
I know this is old news but I am going to say it anyways, I have to say I am very proud of George W Bush for banning partial birth abortion!! Very brave step for a man to step up and do what is right and do what he believes in!!! I am so very proud of him as a president to do what he believes and not not do it because others are against it. The fact that judges banned it minutes after it was signed is horrible!!! I do not agree with abortion, nor do I agree with this way of aborting a BABY.... it sickens me to no end... a baby is a baby, whether it be in the womb or outside the womb... I have 4 beautiful children and would not trade that for the world. I know that there are different reasonings for having abortions and I know that women have made those decisions for themselves and I do not think less of them for it, I DO think less of women who continue to have abortion after abortion as a way of birth control, that is HORRIBLE and should not be allowed at all!! CLOSE your damn legs or use your damn brain and use birth control!!! I was not planning on going on about such a controversial subject.... oh, well :o)
And lastly, I want to add that my prayers are with all the troops in Iraq, God bless you for all that you do and I am praying for you all. I hate the fact that we have lost so many lives, all you guys/gals are awesome and deserve all the respect and well wishes that there are. Thank you to my sweet cousin who will be coming home in a couple of weeks, I cannot wait to see you and cannot wait to take you out to dinner!!!
