For those of you following this blogathon, I make an appeal. Our purpose here is to raise money for the American Cancer Society, and Starz Above has been diligently working at this, so I’d hate to see her efforts wasted. My great-grandmother died of cancer not too long ago, stealing the little time I had…

Hey there, Nicci here
Hello everybody. It’s me, your friendly neighborhood….blogger? Well, actually, since I don’t blog THAT often, I suppose I’m a ‘blooger’. Now, on to randomness. Horses: My fave animal #1 Why NOT love horses? They’re stong, beautiful, BIG, and gentle. They are a mere symbol of beauty. And riding one ain’t too bad either. Not like…
Shower and hand off to Nicci
I am in need of a shower – well, for the typical reasons, and also to hopefully wake me up! So, I put you in the capable hands of the authoress Nicci. She’d love a comment or two!
Hook – funny and not
Not funny – when Peter (“Robin Williams”:http://imdb.com/name/nm0000245/ ) refers to Tinker Bell as the “firefly from he##”. Funny – when Tinker Bell (“Julia Roberts”:http://imdb.com/name/nm0000210/ ) whips the tar out of Peter with the rolled up newspaper that he used in his attempt to squish her. “Hook”:http://imdb.com/title/tt0102057/ _update:_ “Dustin Hoffman”:http://imdb.com/name/nm0000163/ as Captain Hook?! Oh my!

I can still see her and hear her and smell her. She fought the good fight, but didn’t have to suffer long, thank Goodness. She was diagnosed with Lung Cancer that had…
Random Ramblings at 10:30 a.m. on July 29th, 2006
In the kitchen – burnt sausage – ugh! Found while channel surfing – _I wanna be a soap star_ – ummmmmmkay. Biting my hair – Charlie Brown the cat, who is obviously looking for some love and attention. My favorite place in the world – I have a hard time picking a _one and only_…

Life in Late July 2006
Yesterday Angel had a horrible headache most of the day. The other girls went home with Mom/Gramma, so it was pretty quiet and she finally slept awhile. The headache was still there when she woke up, so we tried my sinus meds. The headache disappeared, so it looks like it was a sinus headache. Bummer.…
