Yesterday I was talking to one of my sisters from Tucson and she was telling me that she's planning a trip to New Mexico to visit the home that she lived in as a young child because she feels that she needs some closure. I think if that's what she feels she needs to do, go for it! But for some reason I woke up thinking I want to go too. I was a baby and out of the house when three of my siblings died in a fire there. But she and my other sister were in the house, so it's a nightmare for her.                                                                                               I would like to see the house where they lived and walk through it with her. She also wants to visit the grave site which I did in my 20's, but I'm willing to go again to...

Twenty one years ago I was in Scottsdale giving birth to a baby girl. I still remember when the the nurses would bring her to me they would check our arm bracelets numerous times making sure she was really mine.                                                                      Yes, she was the fairest of them all. It's hard to believe that she's 21 today. It really does seem like it was only yesterday that I was trying to drop her off at preschool as she hung tightly to my leg begging me not to go. She told me that she was never going to leave me and live with me forever - I didn't believe that statement then, but I do today. It's been a fun 21 years  and I can't wait to celebrate 21 more. Saturday we'll go out with family and friends to celebrate - today will just be dinner at home with the family. ...

I know I'm a few days late, but I hope all the mom's had an awesome Mother's Day! I did end up relaxing by the pool while the grand kids played in the pool. Which brings me to share what I read last night. Vicki Gunvalson off of  The Real Housewives of Orange County is expecting her first grandchild .Her daughter Briana is 4 months pregnant. If you watch the show you know that Vicki first had the cancer scare with Briana, the elopement, and now the pregnancy. The way Vicki reacts to everything I would think she's close to being pushed over the edge, but who knows, maybe she ready to be a grandma. Congratulations to each of them! Personally I think Vicki needs to keep her focus on the con man Brooks Ayers that she's dating. Something about that man I do not like or trust... what's your feeling?

The Jersey Shore is phasing out stars is what I just read. I'm not a fan of the reality show, but I've tuned in here and there, and I actually watched the reunion show the other night. According to TMZ  Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino are the ones being phased out due to Snooki's pregnancy and The Situation's current rehab situation. At the end of this article there's a poll asking should a pregnant woman and a recovering addict be a part of what they called "the alcohol- heavy" reality show. I'm a little confused with that question, but haven't watched it enough to witness how much alcohol is involved. But, she isn't the first unwed pregnant girl on a reality show... remember Kourtney Kardashian is pregnant with baby #2 and still not married. And as for The Situation, also not the first to have a stint with rehab. I think it might be nice to see Snooki pregnant and living life differently, and ...
