There's another auction! Check it out.

If the link doesn't work, you can probably get there the same way I mentioned in my last blog. Just go there soon, because it's only on for the next 6 days!

I put it 5 bids myself, but I'm planning on just giving each of the kids a choice. I don't think I'm creative enoughto come up with a great name myself.

my wonderful nephew

See the one at the bottom? The one who's having trouble smiling because his brothers are quite heavy and his little sister is swaying back and forth to make them all fall over?

That's Craig. He's the oldest of them all. This week, he decided to help his mom get the cow she's been wanting forever (stop your snickering...I know she's a little bit country...And stop singing the song!)

ANYWAY...he decided to sell some of his stuff on eBay. If the link doesn't work, just go to eBay.com and write "my mom have a cow" in the search. Craig's auction will be the first one that pops up.

People just keep coming to this site! And supposedly (or is it supposably?) someone has notified our local news and the both late show hosts (David Letterman & Jay Leno) to try and get more publicity for this. Who knows what will happen with that, but I just think it's great what Craig's doing.

He and his friends were talking about some girl who made a lot of money for Katrina, and they started thinking of what they could try to raise money for. And he wrote all this himself! I'm so proud of him.

Take a look, click on the "Watch this item" link, or make a bid even! No pressure, of course!

Praise the Lord

Hallelujah! My car insurance bill has dropped $100 a month! My 2 car wrecks - a month apart - FINALLY came off my record! How incredibly fantastic is that?!?!

look what I found

If you know me from high school, you'll know that one of my favorite bands was Five Iron Frenzy. In fact, at one of their concerts, Reese (the lead vocalist) stuck the mic in my face and I got to sing some of their lyrics! They have some great songs, some political and some just fun.

Anyway, a friend let me borrow her brave Saint Saturn CD, and I couldn't figure out why...until I put it in my radio...IT WAS REESE! I was so glad to hear his voice again.

When I went to fiveironfrenzy.com, I found out that the members of FIF have actually started several bands since their days together. I'm excited! They've moved away from ska music (thank the Lord), but it sounds like they're still policial, still fun, and very contemplative, yet upbeat.

Check 'em out!
