I am not one to criticize one's choice of haircuts, but I haven't quite figured out what Katie Holmes was thinking. This new do of hers is not flattering at all, well that is just my opinion. I think it makes her look older. Quite honestly, I feel like I could pull it off her head, like a wig. It looks like a wig!! Maybe it is because I have been so used to seeing her with her long hair but his hair cut is killing me!!
Katie's New Do
Shrek The Third
One of my all time favorite movies is Shrek. I loved the first two and have them both on DVD. Last night I rented Shrek The Third. Just as I expected, I loved it. I have to give it to who ever came up with idea to make all the fairy tale characters, dysfunctional. To take the personality of each one as we know them in the fairy tales and add a bit of neurotic behavior that fits each one. This movie is filled with the same great, yet suddle adult humor as the other two.
This movie's plot is based on finding the "right king" for that great piece of luxury real estate known as Never, Never Land after King Harold dies. Of course that snotty and disliked Prince Charming thinks he should be the king of Never, Never Land and rallies with the all the fairy tale villains to take over the palace and kingdom.
How the movies ends....you must watch it!
Who Said Learning Can't Be Fun
Not to long ago I received a box from UPS, well two boxes. Inside these two boxes were two games and a bucket of gears. These educational toys were sent to me by Learning Resources. I have to admit that they were a lot of fun. Now I am a big kid at heart so this one was easy.
My favorite one by far, well, the bucket of gears. This set let of gears allowed my imagination run wild. The gears were all different colors, sizes and shapes and the pieces were big and defiantly would be easy for even the smallest of hands to handle.
The gears came with a sheet of stickers to put on some of them. Some of those stickers were glow in the dark! I would have to say that my favorite thing was the motor and the lights. The motor allowed my creation to “come to life” and the lights sure made it more exciting. You defiantly learn how to make all pieces work together.
If you know a child who loves to build things, I would recommend this set! I know I had a lot of fun with it.
December 1st
I can not believe that it is already December. Where did the time go?? A lot has happened this year, some good, some not so good.
I haven't talked much about Z, but he is doing wonderfully. The program director for the S.T.R.I.V.E program he is in at school, has decided that he can start going back to main stream classes this month. I am so excited!! He is too, but a bit nervous, which is completely understandable. Originally he was supposed to start classes after the new year. He has been so consistent with his behavior and homework that they decided he could start now!! I am still waiting for a start date, hopefully next week.
