So last night was a night of a reality show junkies DREAM... Biggest Loser finale, DWTS Finale, American Idol "almost" finale, and last but not least the Jesse James interview on Nightline... Heaven I tell you!
AMERICAN IDOL - Let's start with Idol since we don't know the results yet.... Crystal BLEW Lee away last night. Don't get me wrong - after last week when Lee sang Hallelujah - I was hooked on him. But Crystal's final song last night was amazing and out of his league. We will see what happens... Who do you think it will be?
DWTS - Really - Kate Gosslin looked WORSE on last nights show than she did while performing in earlier shows... Improvement, I think not! She is like a board - with a chip on it's shoulder. SOOOO over her - and WHY does she need 2 new reality shows? Gah... As far as the winner, Nicole deserved it! She rocked that stage every single week and I loved her!!! Erin was my second favorite... All the voted off cast members back last night had pretty decent performances (besides Buzz and Kate of course)... I really like Neicy! She just seems like she is so much fun! And Pamela Anderson - ok look - I get it, she is fake and she is not much more than a "sex" symbol to most, but every single time she was on that stage, she brought her best game. She completely got into every character and did her best. I would have liked to have seen her go further.
Biggest Loser - I am PRETTY SURE that my heart was stopping every time those contestants walked out on stage... The transformation that those people make in 7 months is breathtaking! Mike looked AMAZING and I am so happy he won!!! Koli - yeah - he might have had the highest total percentage, cut he is so cocky! I am glad he didn't win the grand prize... Everyone looked great.
Nightline/Jesse James - Are you kidding me? He is a smug CHEATER who deserves to lose his wife. He said he couldn't put a number to the number of affairs he had!!! WTH? Ugh - Sandra Bullock has handled all of this with as much dignity and grace a possible. TEAM SANDRA!!!
Ok, so that is my rant and a taste of my addictions... Have a great day!

One of those mornings... but not for long!
Morning all... Woke up today feeling crappy - well not really crappy - more like sorry for myslef because I have to get up, get dressed, go to work, deal with issues, yada yada yada... But then I realized - I am not the only one!!! Needless to say, I got up and got my day started (being a grown up sucks sometimes!!!!) and I am determined to make it a good one!
Been stressing about so many things over the last week but I got some decent news yesterday afternoon so that helped a little. Well, didn't really help, but just took a little pressure off!
I missed the premier of the Bachelorette last night - dang it! Gonna have to find it online and watch it there I guess. Alli was one of my fav's from last season so I really hope she finds love! :) I was sooooo dissapointed when Jake didn't bring her back - but he is pretty much a total DWEEB (who can't dance) so I am happy about it now! And speaking of dancing - if Nicole doesn't win DWTS tonight - it's RIGGED!!!!!!!!
As far as Idol - Lee DeWyze should be the winner... I have been a Bowersox fan most of the season, but he has just slid right past her and is in it to win it!!! GO LEE!!!
Biggest Loser Finale is on tonight!!!! This is my FAVORITE show on TV!!! I am hoping that Mike or Ashley wins... They are both the biggest contestants and had the most weight to lose so I just hope they have met thier goals!! Can't wait to see who it will be!!!
If you have read the last three paragraphs, you know that I watch WAAAAY too much reality TV! lol
Anyway - Jason's baseball game last night was pretty exciting... They pulled out a win - but it was PURE luck! Those boys just weren't in the game last night - I can't say that I blame them because it was SOOOO freaking hot! The humidity was so thick and ugh - I am just glad I wasn't out there! But you know, they have comitted to being part of a team and that is just part of it. Like I said, they pulled out a win, but they need to "bring it" this Friday at the next game!
Well folks, I think I have ranted enough for the day - maybe - you never know - I might be back! lol This whole blogging thing is kinda fun! (even if no one reads it - I still get to ramble!)
Have a fantastic day and remember to spay and nueter your pets! HA!

Whew...
First of all - hope you all had a FABULOUS weekend... :)
Mine - yeah - not so much! lol Instead of all the yucky - let's talk about the high points!
Friday night, in the midst of all my craziness, we had dinner with Allison and Jerod... As always, we had a great time and we had PLENTY to talk about... (although we seem to all be "stuck" on a certain topic these days - we will call that subject "Crazy Cooky Random Caca") Cotton Patch was great as always... Missed Avery being there though!!
Saturday was a HARD day, but the good part was that my parents came over for a while and my friend Brandi also... I gave Brandi her cross that I made and she LOVED it!! (sorry the pic is so fuzzy, but my phone is a peice) I hope she enjoys that cross as much as I enjoyed making it for her!
So Saturday afternoon, we stopped by Brandi's for a minute and I say her beautiful bathroom (where she displayed this cross along with her new zebra print shower curtain - LOVE IT!!!) Big John and Linda, Debbie and Mike, and Eric and Cambrynn were there so I got to visit with them for a bit... It was a nice time and the cake that Linda brought - GEEEEZ - It was amazing!!!
We didn't stay long at Brandi's because we had a very special little boy to go visit who was turning 6 years old! Yep - Brodie Mack Hugghins is growing up! He wanted a hot-dog roasting, smore making kind of party and that is just what he got... The smores were yummy! And after the soaking that we all got from the 5 new WATERGUNS that B-Mack got as presents, it was getting a little late and the sleepiness set in!! (Sorry we left so early Kia, but I just couldn't keep my eyes open!)
Sunday - well Sunday is actually a fuzzy blurry mess for me... After doing waaaay too much on Saturday, my back was killing me so I spent the majority of the day on the couch watching Hoarders!! (back to Hoarders in a few minutes - gag) I did however make a yummy pot of Tortilla Soup and MAN was it goooood! It was just what I needed to end a long and stressful weekend. :) Well, the late conversation with Allison made me laugh and got my mind off of my issues for a little while also, so that was good medication for the soul! Thanks Alli!!!
All-in-all, as stressful as the weekend was, it was productive and I still managed to squeeze in time with friends and family - so I couldn't really ask for more!
Thanks to all that have and are helping me!!! And thanks to Wes especially... He never stops, even when he wants to and is so tired... He NEVER stops. I am lucky (99% of the time) haha
So - back to Hoarders - um... REALLY? People live like that? Really?!?!?!?! Ok, I get that SOME of those people have mental issues and that compulsive hoarding is really a disease, but I have concluded (in my expert opinion) that some of them are simply NASTY and LAZY people who don't wanna clean up thier house. I mean, when your house is full of "stuff", that is one thing - But 2 of the 4 episodes that I watched - these people has nothing but TRASH in thier house... (and LOTS of mice) So gross. Makes me wanna throw everything I own out and start over just so I can clean!!!
Off my rant now... Hope everyone has a great Monday! :)
Until next time - be safe and spend time doing things you love with those you love...
Oh yeah - Baseball game tonight! Go Jason and Go Cardinals!!! (Love getting to watch him play)

Whirlwind
Ok, so this has been one of the CRAZIEST weeks I have had in a VERY long time... If you are close to me, you know what is going on... If not - I will tell you soon enough - just trying to get it all sorted out!! (And for those of you who know mine and Wes's history - we are not splitting up! haha)
So anyway - just say a prayer for me that everything "works out" and that SOMETHING good will come out of all this...
And to those of you helping me with everything, you ROCK! I couldn't go through the days without great friends and a wonderful family. It means the world to me.
Now on to more important topics - OMG - did you watch Grey's last night??? WTH? Best episode EVER - by FAR! When he shot Reid in the head (before the first commercial even came on) I jumped so high and then immediately teared up... Pins and needles for 2 hours!!! Can not wait until next season. Who all died? Reid, Charles Percy, a security guard, maybe some other nurses? I can't really remember... And you know - it never really shows Derek at the end... Looks like Kerev is gonna make it and Hunt also. But you would think SOMEONE else is gonna die at the beginning of next season. Who will it be? And will Weber become cheif again? OMG - so much to ponder over the next few months. SO sad that Meridith lost the baby... But Arizona and Calli are gonna have 10 - maybe they could give her one! haha (and I hate to say this - but I wish they would have killed Hunt off - can't STAND HIM!) Sorry - small emotional outburst.. I'm better. :)
On a positive note - it's Friday people!!! Let's do this!
Have a very happy weekend and try to spend it doing something that matters with the people you love the most.

New to the blogging world...
Well folks - I am new to the blogging world and not really sure what I intend to get out of it other than having a place to share my ideas,thoughts, and experiences...
I am 28 years old - 29 in amonth - been married for 10 years - no children - 2 dogs - full of energy and ideas - and I love my family. That is me in a nutshell...
The husband...
Fred Larry Allen
Francis "Frannie" Diane Allen
I have a wonderful mom and dad who love me and support me... One brother Cory, who has 4 boys - Jason (14), Kyle (5), Caden & Caleb (2). They are truly precious and each one unique. My sister Amy is engaged to me married and have a step-daughter Isabella. These are all people that I love very much!
Anyway - enough life history - back to why I created this blog... Guess what?!?!? I have NO idea!!! Guess I will find out though, the more I write. When I was younger I loved to write... I would re-write the story of the 3 Bears using different names, places, anything to make each little story unique, but still the same - make sense? haha
Until my next blog...
Ashley
