Red Rock Canyon



Ladies and Gentlemen,  the fountain show will begin in the next 5 minutes.  "Luck be a Lady Tonight."  Let's just say, I felt like quite the Lucky Lady.









This is Ned and I inside the Garden at the Bellagio.  4th of July theme still going on.  It was fantastic.







This is on our Red Rock Canyon Adventure hike.  We found a little shaded ledge to sit on, since the weather was well above 100 degrees.






Brunch at Cheesecake Factory.  No room for cheesecake :(


Ava's feet had a cramp about 200 yards into the hike and to dramatically stop and rest.










Ava was quite the hiker after she got the hang of it.  I may buy her special shoes so she can start repelling next week.











Just chillin some more on the ledge, throwing some rocks.  They were made of sandstone, so they smashed into pieces quite easily.

Life

The only purpose of any "even" in our lives is to reveal our true selves. Each of us, personally, must examine the depth of understanding, compassion, charity and gratitude we possess.

In our "course" of life; events serve no other purpose.

Any deviation, from the intent of this purpose; any focus on "events" outside ourselves, or in any other person's life, will frustrate the realization of this purpose.

It's almost 2 a.m. There is some chance I may edit this tomorrow.

Fallen Angels Phoenix '08





















Who says 1 year and 3 months is too long to post something new to my blog?

Ok, it's been quite awhile, but my computer was ghetto and now I am blessed with a brand spankin' new MacBook! I must say, I don't quite know where to begin. All I have to say is, let it begin.

Did you say "Pre-Cervical Cancer!"

Yes, that's what I said. I haven't so much ever really heard of pre-cancer, I assumed it was either cancer or not, apparently there is a "pre" stage. Technically it's called mild dysplasia. When it gets to moderate or severe that's when you really worry and it can turn into real cancer. Remember, I only have/had the mild type, so I'm good.

When did I find out about this "pre-cancerous" stage you ask? Well I actually found out in October after finally getting a pap smear, ladies don't ever forget or delay getting this one, followed by an actual biopsy and then the news that I would need to get it Cryogenically frozen off! I had been diverted with other concerns such as school, raising a 4 yr old, whose father by the way was taking me to court accusing me of ridiculous things,and to top it off being sued by her former babysitter didn't help at all trying to take care of my self.

It had been diagnosed as a low-grade type, so the urgency by the nurse was minimal and the availability of a Gynocologyst at the student health center was also not very often. I also was notified that the brand new "gun" that they use to direct the freezing, sub zero temperature to my cervix, was missing in action and at another location. So it wasn't until just last Thursday, April 19th, that I had the procedure done. No worries, it didn't hurt a bit, you can't even tell what's going on aside from the hissing noise the tank of CO2 makes.

So it's Monday now, and I got an infection attributed to the procedure stated above. I am definitely ok for the meantime, and I'll find out if its completely ok in about 3 more months. No worries, I was scared at first but I believe I have much more to accomplish to let the thought of actual cancer get in my way.

oh boy do I have some beef!

To whom do I have beef with you ask? Rosie O'Donnell that who. I am all for free speech and especially on a television show that I used to respect called "The View," but now I believe she has lost it. I'm even sick that I give her name any attention. I'm just sick of the nonsense that comes out of her mouth. I mean I feel so much for Elisabeth Hasselbeck, she should have her own show!. That's all about all I have to say about that, let me know if you have any opinions.

Jim Gaffigan Part 3

This is so funny, I have to post it so I'll know exactly where it is when I'm having a not so good day!

Purple and Brown

This is funnneeeee!

It never fails!

Every morning when I eat from my box of mini powdered donuts, I get just a tiny bit of powered sugar in the crease of my mouth. And wouldn't you know it, before I can remember to lick my lips, one of my co-workers say "you've got something white in the crease of your mouth?" Now could it get any more embarassing? Well it hasn't thus far. I thought about it, I was going to post a picture of it, but decided the visual was good enough for ya.

Anyhow, I know that comedy is the best medicine so in my blogs you will enjoy certain clips from various comedians. Today I will feature Carlos Mencia. He has his own show on Comedy Central called Mind of Mencia. He's insanely funny.
