I know that "safer" products are more inexpensive but it's totally worth it to me to spend more on products I can feel good about putting on my body. I've switched to the yes to carrots/tomatos line and love it! I still also make my own cleaning products!

Deliverance and The Graduate

I saw some 2 movies I've wanted to see for sometime now...deliverace and the graduate. Loved the Graduate and deliverance was good but not great. I was personally expecting a little more backwards hillbilly action but with the one scene I guess I should be ok with it and not be a wierdo. I was pleasantly surprised with how good looking Burt Reynolds and Jon Voight were back in the day!

Capitalism: A love Story

Many people love to hate Michael Moore because he is so one sided and is so obviously giving his audience just a small part of the story. I have watched all his films and I guess love getting a kick out of this and love screaming at him through my television screen. Many people are kinda amazed when I tell them I watch the Michael Moore movies and here is why I do. I don't want to be one of "those" people who say I hate him and have never watched a clip of what he has to say. Yes I know I'm going to dislike him but now I have grounds in a conversation to say why he is wrong=) It's the same with all the liberals who bash Glenn Beck or Bill O' Reilly and have never watched an episode of either of them. What I find funny about this is, many liberals would probably agree with Bill because he is so neutral and is just giving us stories not bashing just one party but both for the idiotic things they both do. I've heard him bash Bush MANY times and Glenn Beck does the same... although I will admit he does lean more right than Bill. Yes, Hannity is our Michael Moore whom is completley one-sided and plainly hates the liberal ideas.
So enough about my rant but I did think that he does point out a lot of sad things going on in our nation that are not right and should be fixed BUT, for example the airline pilots making so little...I've never heard of the company they work for let alone never heard of a pilot making less than around 200,000....this is having a dad as an accountant by the way. Why didn't he pinpoint an airline that the general public probably has heard of? I did agree with the company sit in and was so happy that bank of america finally paid them what they had coming.
I do like capitalism and the idea of working your way up and getting what you put into it, but as Grant and I talked about, don't like the idea of the 1% making billions while the little cashier under them doing their work makes 7.00.
The forclosed homes that are happening in this day and age are yes due to some people losing their jobs and it is sad. But for the most part it seems people have gotten themselves into trouble with credit and buying more than they could afford. Yes the banks maybe shouldn't have given people so much but when making such a big purchase shouldn't you be responsible as well for knowing what you can afford? Plus many of these people live in such an instant gratification world and end up getting themselves into trouble...should I really feel bad for these people? I do a little, it's just human to do so but we all have to learn from lessons eh' Grant and I went through a period when living in the cities where we spent way more than what we made but learned our lesson and are back on track. I don't expect anyone to feel bad for us and give us handouts...we learned our lesson and moved on. Yes Grant makes good money but he worked himself up from making only 8.00 an hour to where he is now by hard work and dedication! THere were many other things in the film I could argue but am running out of time and probably lost a few viewers by now=D

Mothers Day 10'

Grant and I went to Eagle Bend for the big day. Saturday was my Mother in Laws annual church mother daughter brunch/program. This year was the first year that I've actually been sad and I'll admit it, a little bitter about not being blessed with a child like others are. Don't get me wrong, I'm so happy for all the woman who are blessed to be mothers, just a little sad for myself and others like me who aren't as blessed. I don't know if it's the fail in fertility this past year or just the more of the want to be a mom as time goes by and my biological clock is ticking.
I'm going to focus on having my 2 neices and nephew with me this summer and know that God has his plan for me.

More movies I have on the rent out for my time at home

Today on the way home Grant and I rented quite a few movies. Here is the list...
Coraline
Capitalism: a love story
The Ugly Truth
Good Dick
Seven Pounds
Yesterday we watched 2012 and I thought that was a good flick as well. Not my typical movie but I'd suggest it.
I'm currently half way through There will be Blood. And Netflix just sent me my first movie from my friends must see list; Rainman. I plan on catching up with scrapbooking as I'm watching these so I'm not a complete couch potato=)

whip it

Grant and I watched the movie whip it today and I loved it! I really want to go and see a real roller derby now! I know Ellen Page won't be there, and how do I love her, but I still think it could be a rather fun outing!

Today I went to the big town of Appleton to do some shopping and to get out of the house for awhile. I stopped at Atlanta Bread to have a sandwich and as I'm sitting there, there is this lady (yes, lady, mid 30's maybe pushing 40) with stilletos (did I even spell that right?) on. To me she looked so ridiculous first of all for wearing, them beings I'm all about comfort, and trying to walk in them. It looked like to much work to try and keep herself up. There was probably a time when I cared about what I looked like than if I was comfortable or not. I'm happy to report comfort wins and I can walk a straight line no problem=)
