TWILIGHT

I can finally remove the countdown from my sidebar. YES, the movie finally has arrived. I saw it Friday afternoon with my BFF Jen. Jen bought the tickets in advance and we picked them up 2 hours ahead of time to avoid the crowd. We really didn't know what to expect. When we entered the theater a half hour ahead of the movie start there were a handful of school girls, tweens. But by the movie start, it was packed and the energy in the room was incredible. Everytime they squealed I tried my best to contain myself b/c I wanted to squeal too! The movie was great, much too fast and understandably condensed since the book was 500 pages. I wouldn't have minded it being a mini-series to capture all of those moments between Edward and Bella. BUT at least it looks like there will be another movie!!! I can't wait to put a new counter on my blog.
OK, so why are women over 25 embarrassed to admit that they like Twilight?? Really, what's not to like? Seriously, it's well written, easy to read, and it's a LOVE story. Why not admit that although we may love our husbands/boyfriends, we all envy the deep passion shared by Edward and Bella. She is his life. Wouldn't we all like to be put on the pedestal at least for a little while? It's also very sweet and innocent and reminiscent of of new love, that butterfly feeling. I know I relived those moments as I read.
So, come on, join in with me here, you can do it, "I - LOVE - THE - TWILIGHT - SERIES!!"
(don't you feel better now?)

Who's who, do you ask?

Hi Ladies,

It's been so long since I've posted anything crafty. I hope to get some work done over the holidays to share. I'm still slowly working on my children's first year album, which I think will have several volumes, lol. Perhaps I can post some of those pages soon.

On a serious note, in these tough economic times my company, Marquis Who's Who, is trying to promote their new website as much as possible exploring various venues to get the word out. So I thought, why not post an announcement on my blog? Please, if you have a moment, visit this awesome site and pass the word along. This site offers a wide variety of information such as Food and Wine, Health Travel and most importantly, Who's Who in America, interviews with doctors, designers, chefs, the list could go on. Here is the link: www.whoswhoinamerica.com.

Thanks so very much for lending a hand.
