Sorry for the lack of posts this week...just having a really good and busy few days!
My week started with the Eclipse premiere at midnight. The line and waiting and seating stunk--second row--I loathe sitting in the front 6 rows. But oh well. Maybe I'm getting to old for this crap. lol I really liked the movie; I think it's the best one so far. The acting, direction, effects, and violence are all deliciously done. Good humor, good abs, good makeout scenes, good stuff. My only complaints are: Carlisle's sudden accent (he didn't have one in movies one or two), I wasn't crazy about Bryce Dallas Howard's version of Victoria, and Bella's engagement ring...uuuugly. But the rest I give two thumbs up.
Yes, I passed my state CNA exam and am already applying for part-time or pool jobs. So if you know any... It's a load off my mind, I tell ya. I'm full of self-doubt when it comes to stuff like this. I'm so glad to have it over with! Danny also did well on his mid-term. He has only a few weeks left of his Math class and Monday he starts Humanities class. Those will overlap for a bit, but once he's done with those, he'll have his AA! Yay Dan! After that, he has 4 or so pre-reqs he has to do for the Nursing Program and then he's on his way as well. Getting things done!
I have a few reviews coming up--the real reason why I haven't posted this week--and I thought they were going live today. Turns out we're still waiting on some clients, but then I'll have more chances for you to enter for $100 gift cards. Just so you know, I've won three of these myself! The odds are really good, so I strongly encourage you to enter, and not only mine, but all the others in the BlogHer loop. Good luck!
This weekend is going to be a fantastic four-day celebration for our family and friends. We have plans each of the four days to spend time together; I love it! For those of you traveling, braving the theme parks, going out of town, staying in, or keeping things quiet, enjoy your Independence Day weekend. Fly a flag if you have one, and take a few moments to remember what it is we're celebrating. :)
I leave you with a gem of a video that has been passed around the internet. It is by far my favorite video available on youtube this year. It is beautiful and gives me goosebumps every single time I watch it. Enjoy, and keep safe this weekend.

Cool video!
Seriously Bella's engagement ring was awful. wolf Jacob gave Bella (that he made himself) didn't look how I pictured it at all.
I disliked Victoria in this movie, not the character (she is a wench of course) but the portrayal, too.
Elise and I plan to try to do the midnight thing for the last movie but honestly I am too darn old ti enjoy that!
By the way, that video makes me cry. Every. single. time.
Congrats on passing your CNAs. Saw Eclipse. Charlie was my favorite in this movie.
What Carlisle accident? I thought Bryce D. Howard, did ok. She wasn't as mean or believable as the first gal that played Victoria, so well I guess I would have to agree but I do like her but not for Victoria.
Yeah to you!!!! Knew you could do it. Best of luck finding a job somewhere. Wish I knew of somewhere to refer to you.
Have a wonderful and safe weekend!
What an interesting video!
