Fellow blogger Prosperous Snow believes the future is bright. I strongly agree. Do you?

Based on an entry by Prosperous Snow celebrating

Answer #16. One last humorous thought: 'stressed is desserts spelled back words.'

Yes, I want my desserts now, have been stressed enough.
No opinion.
Nope. I love my stress. Don't want no nasty desserts.
Is it chocolate? Is it gooood chocolate?
Hey, this isn't funny ...
Great! Send Snow a Chocolate Badge!
Yeah ... and God spelled backwards is Dog.

Which answer do you like best?
OMG!! I'm drowning in lack of Christmas time management skills...............

And to boot - the Hubby joined Weight Watchers!! In the MIDDLE of DECEMBER! Sigh..... I couldn't tell him no so now I'm on Weight Watchers, too.

Off to wrap gifts. Oh, I need more See's Chocolate and Gift cards. Sigh....

This is probably blasphemy coming from someone who works for Disney, but I've always loved Universal Studios Hollywood. The studio tour and the Waterworld stunt show (f.k.a. Miami Vice Action Spectacular) have always been real highlights for me. I actually haven't been since Wizarding World opened and I really want to check it out!

Roseland Amusement Park at Canandaigua Lake, NY back in the 60's when I was about ten. The roller coaster went out over the lake with a turn that felt like I was going to fly into the lake.

OMG, it was scary gooooood! I went on that ride over and over.

Sharing one of my FAVORITE Christmas tunes.

What's yours?

I'm not really one for Christmas stuff, but this oldie is a decent effort.



The only male in the line-up - Bobby Farrell - was a dancer and apparently couldn't sing for toffee, so the group's manager dubbed his lines. If you've ever wondered why he sounded German, now you know.
The Chimney Song by Bob Rivers
I've always been a sucker for Silent Night, especially this version:

Guys - I'm little late with my updates as real life has dominated by time! I hope to update the Bee Hive within the next 24-72 hours.

Thanks for your patience!

Your 'peeps' know that life happens, and history shows us you'll take care of us. We'll be here as you catch up, Miss Steph. Sometimes you need a breather after "life happens".

At your convenience....
JACE Author Icon - Thanks Jace! Off to sleep before work, but I'm going to try to catch up tomorrow afternoon! Sigh...

My hubby and I love the Stephanie Plum books. The incorrigible grandmother is a great character.
I too am a big fan of the Stepanie Blum novels.
SandraLynnSprinkles Slingin' Author IconMail Icon JCosmos Author IconMail Icon I really do enjoy reading the stories. They are highly entertaining and I feel like all the characters are friends. I haven't read all the books, but I'm looking forward to the next one!
