Secretariat
I recently saw the movie Secretariat with my children.
It was wonderful.
Magical.
I highly recommend it.
There is a chance I cried for the entire length of the movie.
I neither confirm nor deny whether or not I did or did not.
(aren't you glad election season is over and we don't have to listen to or watch those ridiculous commercials any more?? gee zoo...)
Now listen, I know I have a special affinity for horses so I am sure that played into my love for the movie, but it really was wonderful. I aint lyin' people.
You are rooting for the owner (a woman in a man's world); you are rooting for the horse; you are rooting for the trainer; you are rooting for the jockey. It's just a feel-good movie.
Although, it made me thankful that I was not a housewife in the 70's.
But, enough about that.
Get thee to the cinema!

US & OZ: October 25, 2010
Sorry for the lateness of this post, but I am a bit under the weather (a terrible place to be) and have been dozing on the sofa.
Here is the photo from OZ:
and the photo from US:
Kate has said that the month of October is making her homesick so I thought I would take a photo of home. These are the delicious deciduous trees by Kate's house.
Don't they look stunning?
One thing I love about fall on the east coast is the color. Even driving down the highway is more enjoyable when you can admire all the gorgeous coordinating colors of the leaves.
As I was snapping away I thought, I hope this doesn't make her more homesick. My intentions were pure, I assure you!!

Here is the photo from OZ:
Well it started pouring again so I went with this picture.
I've been wanting to show off the butterfly stickers on my window. :)
I think they have been there since the first au pair.

My One True Love
and no, it's not my no good lousy husband...
it's this guy:
isn't he handsome?
He sees me and starts walking towards me
That's just how happy he is to see me
He stands there and lets me take goofy pictures of him
and I didn't even have any treats for the handsome fella
His friend comes up and wonders if there are any treats for him
But, my man says back off, she's mine!
Who doesn't want a partner like that?
My lover boy
His name is Slick
