Sorry I've been pretty much MIA this week. That's what happens when you start a new job and suddenly realize that you have a gazillion things to do before school starts up again. Gah! It's crazy stuff, but I'm loving it.

Awesome Dance Scenes #1

Photobucket


Just some of my all time favorite movie dance scenes. There is no way I could feature every dance scene that I love in just one post but I'll start with a few that are at the top of my list. We may have to do this again some time, just so I can share more of my list. Enjoy and I hope it makes your Monday a little less 'Monday.'


Singing In The Rain



White Nights



She's All That



Pee Wee's Big Adventure



Beetlejuice



Love Actually-One of my favorite movies- This scene is just way too short.



Newsies- Another movie that I can never get enough of. That's why you're getting more than one video from this movie.





Center Stage





Get Smart



Hitch



A couple from Shirley Temple





Okay, I'll stop now.

What's in my Reader? Let's Share Favorites.

Currently I subscribe to 163 blogs. I try to keep it on the light side, you know, and only subscribe to the blogs that I actually read and comment on. Yes, I do actually read and comment on all 163 of those blogs.

Not every day, mind you, but I do try to visit each blog no less than once per week but typically check in on each of them two to three times per week. So essentially, I'm scrolling through my Google Reader every day.

How do I find the time? I don't know. I just do. When you enjoy something, you find time for it. And I enjoy reading....reading blogs.

How organized do you think my Google Reader is? If you know me at all, then you know it's immaculate. Every blog is safely tucked into a folder based on the type of content on the blog.

Currently I have 9 folders in which to arrange the blogs I read. They are as follows:

Archives: 6 blogs
Librarians: 23 blogs
Fashion: 6 blogs

Finance: 32 blogs
Food: 1 blog (guess I need to beef that one up)
Design: 16 blogs
Checking It Out (blogs that I'm new to): 8 blogs
Personal Blogs: 8 blogs
Wedding Blogs: 22 blogs


Yes, I'm a nerd. I like reading finance blogs. Oh, you thought the librarian blogs made me a nerd? Nah. Just the finance blogs. This list doesn't include the blogs I 'follow' either. Now I don't think that's too many and I'm always on the lookout for other interesting reads.

I thought it was high time I shared a couple of my favorites with you:

Design:
Style Files

Wedding:
Inspired By This

Fashion:
My Daily Style

Personal:
Coffee Jitters

Finance: Girl With The Red Balloon

So there's just a few of my favorite reads. I'd love to hear what your favorite reads are!

What I discovered today...

...in the yard...

Side note: For those of you on Facebook who think my status means I'm pregnant, I'm very sorry to disapoint, but I'm not. I know. I know. I can be such a let down.

Anyway, on to my discoveries that have nothing to do with a discovery that I'm pregnant-cause I'm not. Just had to clarify one more time.

Discoveries: While digging around in one of my flower beds, I found a very large rock. Then I dug some more and realized that the 'rock' was actually part of Ashland's bone. Remember
this nose? I think we can safely put two and two together here.

Just after discovering the bone, I looked over to realize that we had our first gladiola!! I've never had a gladiola before. We bought some bulbs in bulk this year and it came with gladiola's, so I was excited to see them come up.

However, I was not so excited to see that it had been trampled. It now has to be held up with this little holdy uppy doo-hicky thing I got at Lowe's. Poor 'lil guy.

Photobucket


Then I checked on the garden and found peppers!!

Bell Peppers

Banana Peppers

And Anaheim Peppers

I also think that after today's inspection it may be safe to assume that we're about to have tomatoes coming out of our ears.

But we're please as punch to discover that our corn is now twice as tall as our neighbors corn. He he. It's taller than Andy!

Photobucket


Please ignore my sweatiness. I had just had my butt kicked at Body Pump class.

Photobucket


And finally I'm happy to report that my sunflowers are officially out of control. Remember how tall they were three weeks ago?

Photobucket


Even Andy can't reach the top!

Photobucket


This one's got issues- Leaning Tower of Sunflower:

Photobucket


I'm kinda lovin it. One thing I'm not lovin is the extra shovelling up I've had to do this week due to our massive visitor. I will not tell you where or how I discovered his latest drop.
