Dancing With the Stars...again!!

Yes, Amanda, I am back to watching "Dancing with the Stars." I love this show! I had so much fun watching everyone dance. Jason Taylor (NFL player for Miami) was fantastic and fun to watch. Kristi Yamaguchi was near perfect and Shannon Elizabeth was so graceful. But, my favorite performance to watch was that of Marlee Matlin. Wow. For those of you who don't watch the show, she's deaf. Yeah, it's pretty cool. She's a fabulous dancer and even the judges talked about how she had good "musicality."

My in-laws are deaf, so it's even more special to watch her dance. (Actually, this is my mother-in-law's favorite TV show!) I have been incredibly impressed and hope that she goes far. I tried to vote last night, but my email was super slow and by the time I decided to text message (couldn't remember the numbers, so had to go online to get them), it was too late.

On the other side, as sweet as she is, Monica Seles is by far the worst of the female dancers and for the men, both Penn Jillette and Adam Corolla need to go soon.

I've noticed that the judges are harder this year. Although I think Kristi should have gotten at least one 10 last night (they all told her that her performance was perfect and couldn't find anything wrong), the judges had definitely gotten a little too generous the last time I watched it. Two seasons ago, it seemed like they were constantly giving away 9s and 10s.

Oh yeah, and Priscilla Presley has had WAY too much botox. Her face doesn't even more. The sad thing is that I would really like to see how she would look without the botox. She's the kind of person who will always look beautiful as she ages. It's too bad she's let the botox "deform" her face. :( I'm not trying to be critical, it just really saddened me... (the funny thing is, everyone knows she was married to Elvis Presley, so we all know her approximate age -- the botox isn't fooling anyone!).

Anyways, one male and one female are eliminated tonight -- they changed it up this year! Can't wait to find out!

I agree with everything you just said!!
I love the women this year but Priscilla Presley is SCARY! I think it's definitely botched plastic surgery that she had to have fixed. Yikes!!

Forgiven and Free

I've come to the revelation that I don't love people (other than my family, which I love fiercely). I'm not trying to be funny and I'm not being mean. I care for people and I genuinely show love and care, but deep down in my sinful, deprived soul, I don't truly love people. Let me explain... I've been hurt a lot by friendships. Numerous times I have let my guard down and tried to be real, just to have those people walk away from me for no reason. So I've put up walls and guarded my heart. I'll share only what is safe, but I struggle to be vulnerable and real. Years ago I went to counseling to help me with being more vulnerable (and my perfectionist nature). I grew a lot and after about a year, I connected with my future husband and allowed my walls to come down. I praise the Lord for him and allowing me to be real. My husband is a gift from God, but I still struggle with my female friendships. Guy friendships always seem to be easier to me. Maybe it ...

Honestly...

I've been thinking a lot about honesty lately, specifically in relationships. For the most part, I consider myself an honest person. When I worked in retail, my customers appreciated that I would give them honest feedback and let them know if something worked for them, instead of just trying to make a sale. I joke around that if you give me a just a little alcohol, you will be sure to know my opinions about any and everything. ;) However, when it comes to people who are close to me, I have a harder time being honest. I can be honest when it doesn't matter -- even when it is with people I consider my friends. I think because there isn't as much at stake -- if they judge me, get mad, or walk away, it doesn't really matter. I know that I was honest and I can move on in my life.  However, with those closest to me, I'm careful to keep things close to me and compartmentalize instead to sharing how I honestly feel. There's way more at stake. Yes, I know that the people...

Simple and Sweet

So, Saturday I found and bought my wedding dress (no, I am not posting any pictures). Monday, I found my bridesmaids' dresses. Yea! It's all coming together. I still don't have any pictures to post. I tried to post one, but it didn't work. So, I have to find a different picture. I'll try to do it soon. Sorry!
