Oh demaris,  you are so right,  how bad of me not to think of my sister wife,  Of course we can share, 

Well, one week of school holidays still ahead, so I have to get my son to prepare to go back to school again, my daughter just had her 6th birthday, so I have to prepare her Smurfday party and she's starting her last year of kindergarten (the important preschool year) and my youngest will be 3 soon and starts kindergarten then...
soo.... when can I read?? 

Thanks for letting me vent...

Now I'm supposed to read the Hobbit, because my son read it and now started reading Lord of the Rings (he's 11yo) and he wants to talk about it with me... I'm sooo not in the mood for those books, I'm procrastinating by rereading fanfics  (Your Life can change in a Moment by coloradoperson, a pretty good, realistic cancer story)

I LOVE the Smurfs! I loved the cartoons when I was a kid and we watched the second movie on Wednesday for dd's birthday. The first movie they watched with hubs, because I can't see 3D and refuse to go to a 3D movie. But now they prefer to go with me to the normal versions of the movies because I buy more popcorn... 

The Hobbit was a fun little adventure! I hope you like it. Back in 2001, my ex gave it to me as a trial run since I was excited about the LotR films coming out, and I completely fell for Tolkien. Well, not completely. I kind of skimmed a lot of the songs, it was a little too much for me. I read the trilogy as we drove around the Western U.S. for a month that summer. It was wonderful reading about this long journey while I was on one myself. It's great that your son is interested; I hope he likes them too!

The Smurfs and Fraggle Rock were my faves as a kid. Oh, and 3-2-1 Contact! I was a geek even then. 

I don't know - he might start having nightmares of his time with me.  :DWhat do you mean he can't be perfect all the time. 
I've gotta felling I'm gonna have to re-train him. 

I think I'm just gonna let you ladies fight it out between yourselves and I know I shouldn't have favourites but if I had to put money on someone winning this fight it would Astro.

Sorry, but she's been without for a while. 
Love ya really Astro 

I've read the trilogy several years ago and liked them but haven't seen the movies yet. I'll wait till my son has finished reading the books, then we can watch them together (my rule - reading first, watching later  my son learned the truth about that rule watching Harry Potter after reading it)

Shopping in Paris.  And finding a perfect dress.  Couture of course!

NO, NOT the SMURFS!  My son wants to go see the second Smurfs movie.  I refuse.  I'll do Turbo, Despicable Me 2, Monsters' University... but I refuse to subject myself to the SMURFs!

If it helps, Katy Perry is Smurfette....

This is the best thing about having four-legged kids....

Ohhhh Ella faaancccy. Love it! 

I was a big Tolkien fan when I was a teen. Many years ago.  So when the movies came out, I thought, No problem I read this stuff like 20 times each (no exaggeration on that number) I shouldn't have a problem following.  I was so lost in spots.  I knew the gist of it, but things would happen & I'd say, that's not right. My husband, who read them again before the movies came out of course corrected me.

Now Harry Potter?  If you didn't read the books first? You would have no idea what was going on.  They skip around so much trying to cram it all in.  I had to watch them multiple times to follow it.  And I read the books.

It's mostly a dream because I just can't see spending that much money on a dress.  Especially as I keep gaining weight.  Though I have been trying to lose some.  It's just so hard. You can't eat anything.  Well, I can eat anything, I just can't eat very much of anything. 

My hubs refused watching HP movies after the third one, he never read the books and simply wasn't able to follow the plot...
