TODAY, Wednesday February 23,2011 - Pink Shirt Day join my family, my friends and myself in a fight against BULLYING.
Wear something pink to show your support. Stand up against bullying and let the bullies know that we as a group stand united and we won’t tolerate bullying ANYWHERE.
It's time for Monday's Music Moves Me . Last week due life happening around me and going skiing with my youngest one (that's where I am this Monday again) I missed music Monday.
I had stuff ready for you...really cool stuff too and then I totally forgot. That's happening a lot to me lately especially since I am also doing 31 Days to Better Blog challenge with an awesome group of ladies over at SITS Girls.
As you can tell lack of posting I am not doing the challenge using this blog. I don't think I could handle better all of my blogs at the same time....that would be a blogging suicide.
Never mind the fact that my kids would probably kick me out of the house and stage a protest due to lack of nourishment and clean underwear.
I noticed last week the dog was giving me the evil eye just one so far and he's usually the most loyal and loving one I am the hand that feeds in the bunch.
Anyway for the month of February Monday Music theme is: Love Songs
Here is what to do if you would like to join this rockin' party:
First step: Run over to You Tube, (or wherever), and lock & load! Get your pick for the theme of the week. Upcoming themes are over to you left.
Second Step: Grab our "Monday's Music Moves Me" button (over to our right, right under mine)
Third step: SIGN THE LINKY - Dance (follow) your host/hostesses, and grab their buttons.
Final step: Start lookin' for a partner and boogie on down to her/his blog, and say hello, and tag (follow) her/him, and leave a nice comment. If you've been tagged (followed) be hip, and get on over there, and tag (follow) her back and leave a comment.
I told you that I had lots of good stuff ready since last week, but I decided to take a different route this Monday.
Since Average Joe couldn't spend the Valentine's Day at home I made him little photo montage of all the moments he missed and some moments he didn't.
Song included in this montage is LUCKY by Jason Mraz. One of my all time favorite songs. Song that describes exactly how I feel.
On a serious note, please visit me over at Daily Organized Chaos and read my post BULLYING STOPS HERE and learn how YOU can get involved and support Pink Shirt Day campaign.

Lets Play.....
I love a good love song, don't you? Something to make me cry happy tears and remember how blessed I am. Not everybody finds true love and I am one of those who did.
I will start this Monday with my and AJ's love song - our first dance song.
Ladies and gentlemen.....The Carpenter's and We've Only Just Begun.......
....and Dr. Hook's Years From Now...song that I play everytime I miss AJ (a lot).
It's Friday and I am still trying to catch up on this week.
Hubs came home for his 36 hours on Monday and since I haven't seen him for a week I skipped all of my chores and blogging to hang with him. I was worth it......, but ........
.....I forgot to tell you that Monday I WAS FEATURED blogger on The Knit Wit By Shair. Go check out my interview.
Shair is a fellow Canadian blogger I recently met through Canadian blog hop. She's a busy mom of 3 boys with love for knitting and of course blogging.

Tomorrow (Saturday) I am starting a new feature called SATURDAY SPARKLE on my Daily Organized Chaos blog. Every Saturday I will feature a guest post from blogger I love and admire....bloggers who add sparkle to my life.
Hormone Boy is doing much better. Thank you for all your caring comments and emails.
He is still an obnoxious teenager with ranging hormones, but at least he's stepping up (little bit)and taking care of his diabetes better.
Monday he started a new semester and one of his classes is Home Economics. Not sure if the reason behind choosing Home Ec is to meet girls or to actually learn how to cook.
Whatever the reason is last night he made an AWESOME Chocolate Cake....all by himself.
Of course as a baker I was questioning his techniques, but I stood back and the result was delicious.
HB was so proud of his skills and Little Peanut the lover of all things chocolate suddenly became his BFF.
********************
Speaking of Little Peanut....he came from school yesterday with FANNY PACK around his waist.
Apparently, he did a good job with his school work so he got to choose a prize from prize bucket.
My handsome child chose gray colored old man FANNY PACK. He calls it his SACK and first thing this morning he put it on and wore it to school.
Why? Just in case they do arts & crafts and he needs a place to store his supplies.
The worst part is that his cousin and a classmate is JEALOUS of HB's fanny sack. He wants one in a worst way.
I am many things to many people in my life.
I am mommy...I am honey...I am bestie
...I am big sis...I am Mimi...I am daughter,
but here I am The Queen Of Average.
This is my little place where I am
myself with all the good, the bad and
the ugly that life throws my way.
This is my personal outlet where I
let it all out.
Thank you for visiting my world
and thank you for not judging me.
