Anne of Avonlea-Theme Song

I LOVE this music from Anne of Avonlea. I have already listened to it a few times. It really helps to relax me. It immediately takes me back to the movie. I often say to Anthony about things I'd take with me to Heaven if I could, and this song is definitely something I would if I could. It really inspires me, and makes me happy.

A Short Love Story

I saw this on another blog. I LOVE this! A cute little story, and I like the art form as well. I'll post a link of the "making of" on below the video.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow

Because I was singing this out of the blue yesterday, and just heard it on t.v. this morning:



Lyrics | - SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW lyrics

UP

I laughed when I saw the preview, and thought, would be a good movie to see. Then Anthony said later that he heard on the radio that it has a good review-I think he was listening to KPRZ (Christian station) on the radio. For some reason, we didn't go that day. Then today, I read on one of the scrappy blogs I read how it was a great movie to see. So I search and decide to "surprise" Anthony with it. I thought it was a GREAT movie, and really enjoyed it. Anthony said it was cheesy, but liked the movie. RUN and see this movie. If you see it in 3D, we didn't, let me know how it was. To me, this is definitely a hidden gem, one that I don't think got a lot of positive buzz. This is a GOOD movie. I would probably put this on my top movie list. For movies that we've seen this year, I would probably give this movie a slight number one edge over Star Trek, which I also LOVED!

Go watch it NOW.

Here's a link for a sneak peek.

New Moon

Hopefully, I can read the second book BEFORE the movie comes out, and while it is still playing in the theaters, unlike the first book.

Update...What's Up With Me?

I got over having a high, up to 103 degree fever-thank the Lord. Fever and body aches, no sore throat, stuffy nose or anything. I did develop a dry cough towards the end, it is mostly, 99% gone.

Except for time off to get well, teaching, and getting ready my students ready for State Testing.

Walking. I started two weeks or so ago, until I got sick. I hope to get back to it when I feel totally well again. Ant and I went on a short walk a few days ago in Seaport Village-first time for me, fun.

Watching movies. Those who know me/us know I/we LOVE movies. Most recently, we've seen, Termintator, I liked it, Anthony didn't. Star Trek, I LOVED it, it would probably be in my top 20, 100, whatever, Anthony thought it was okay. Before that, we did see the Fighting movie, I think we both thought it was better than we thought it would be. It was okay. We also saw the Fast and Furious movie. We liked it, we thought it was "fun!" The best of all to me was the Star Trek movie. I seriously LOVED IT. Probably my favorite movie this year.

Caught up on some other movies at home such as, Bride Wars-didn't think Ant would want to see that, I liked it. I also, por fin, saw Twilight. Yeah, I know I am late, but I REALLY wanted to read the book first, which usually I don't do. So when I went to visit my Dad, I finished the book, and as a treat, watched the movie on dvd. I thought it was okay. Don't flame me or anything. I REALLY enjoyed the book however. I started the second book, so hopefully I will finish that one before the second movie comes out.

I watched Legacy during the Memorial Day weekend. This was one of those one season shows that was on UPN, I think. I LOVED this show. Long story short, I was able to buy the masters, on VHS-I need to get the episodes transferred. Anyway, I enjoyed watching the episodes. I watched them ALL. I didn't remember them all, or even watching them on VHS, so it was a real treat to watch.

Not scrappin really. I did take a class at a local scrapbook store a month and a half ago or so. I shopped during the National Scrapbooking Day weekend, I think, and finally got my Bind It All-it was a preorder deal. I did watch the dvd that came with it, and binded a little book to try it out. I do WANT to scrap, but being ill, teaching, busy, tired, etc., not being organized, it is a lot to get started. Hopefully, soon, and definitely during summer break.

So that, is pretty much what's been up with me.

New Movies Coming Out

For me, its been a slow movie year. Anyway, as I was checking out the times for the new Fast and Furious movie, I saw an ad for "Fighting Movie" that I would want to see.
Fighting Movie

I also saw an ad for a new Transformers movie. WOW! Not so much as in I was blown away with the preview, but that these movies, for me, have been under the radar. I checked the Moviefone website, as well as the Internet Database of Movies, and I did not see this as upcoming. I figured it was just going to be a not so great year of movies. I guess there are always surprises.

Charlie Brown CD

Here is one of my favorite actors, from one of my favorite shows at the Paley Center in Beverly Hills, responding apparently to a question of his best/memorable gift. It's extra special to me too, because it's one of those things that makes me happy.

Merry Christmas

I hope you and your family and friends had a happy and blessed Christmas. Below is a clip from my FAVORITE Christmas movie.

10 Essentials I am Blessed to Have

The next few days I am going to post some lists of different things about me. I saw this on another blog, who saw it on one of the bios of one of the teachers. It seems like there are several bios, of not all that have the lists that I will TRY to do for the next several days.

Here is the first one: 10 Essentials that I am Blessed to Have-with everything occurring right now, I was thinking of NOT posting this, instead I will say these are "things" that I am blessed to have...in no particular order they are:

1. Sprite-this is on the original list I have. However, I just had my first Sprite, I believe, Sierra Mist before that, from not having it for about 50-60 days. So, although I LOVE Sprite still, I have been without it. So I'll put cell phone as a "replacement" for this one.
2. Television
3. Internet
4. Jamba Juice-Carribean Passion with Immunity Boost is my FAVORITE
5. Magazines-US Weekly, Woman's World, Scrapping magazines, Sunset
6. Zig Black Memory Pen-used for scrapbooking
7. Scratch paper-for my to do lists, ideas, quotes, etc.
8. CNN-I never thought I would be so tuned in, mostly due to the election this year, CSPAN is another favorite although I do not watch as much, it is tied with CNN
9. Movies
10. Talk and Christian Radio

Harry Potter

I learned that there was a new Harry Potter trailer yesterday. It WAS good. Here is a link to watch it.
