A few sites that are fun to surf:

(I need to add them to my links...)

http://www.etsy.com/index.php

1. Etsy is handmade art, jewelry, pottery--you name it. Some of it is wierd and some of it is amazing. Very artsy-fartsy.

2. I can spend hours reading insightful articles by women at Who Is Isabella.

3. Need a recipe quick? I go to My Recipes.

4. Ok--this one's not "fun" but if you want to delve into Activism, NRDC Action Fund is great--they make it so easy for a politcally challenged person like myself to voice my opinion to our representatives.

5. Even when I don't NEED party supplies, I go to Plum Party to look at all the cute stuff I could use...someday.

6. My love of photography is indulged at Flickr. You can post your pics to share or just browse thru tons of intriging photos from around the world.

7. CafePress is a collection of creative merchandise ranging from clothing, home and office accessories, to prints, posters and cards.

I need to spend less time surfing the web! It's one of the few mindless, quiet things I can do after Mason goes to bed and I'm tired. And it's quite inspiring, too. Later.

Horray for Mika!!!!!

You've got to watch this video clip--she rocks!!!

I so admire this newscaster for REFUSING to do a lead story on Paris Hilton over the war in Iraq. We need more people--especially in the media-- to stand up and fight to get stupid celeb fluff stories out of the main headlines and show the real world issues!!!

Mason is Walking!!

I can't believe my little baby Mason will be ONE YEAR OLD in two weeks!!! It feels like he was just a newborn. Some exciting news--He just started walking this week! He just took off and got confident and now he's walking everywhere (and falling down a lot.) He says so many things also--hi, dog, bird, mama, dada, gigi (his great grandma) and also uh and oh, but not together!!

I have his birthday party planned--we only invited our families as to not overwhelm him (and me). I hope his cake turns out. I was so disappointed in Rick's because I called and ordered his cake and then they told me they couldn't do it b/c they would be closed the entire week of his birthday for the holiday!! I guess we'll encounter this problem every year since it's so close to the 4th. The lady at Rick's told me to just go ahead and order it and freeze it---uh, I don't think so!!! anyway, I know Harp's does a great job. My family and my work has used them many times. So I went to Price Cutter in Rogers. (same as Harp's) They seemed like they knew what they were doing, but I guess we'll see. It's just like me to worry about what a cake will look like ! It better be perfect for my baby's first birthday!!! (heehee)

Thought this was too funny...

John Mayer Concert

Since I posted The Eagles concert pics, it reminded me that I've never posted the John Mayer concert pics from my 30th b-day in February! He is my fav singer and it was a great concert! We had good seats down low, but on the side as you can see...

The Eagles Concert

I was so excited to be able to see one of the best bands EVER!!!!!!!!! The Eagles were in town for the Wal-Mart Shareholder's meeting concerts. They were so good! They played easily 20 to 25 songs--and they sounded just like the CD (which is what I like) To name a few:
Take it Easy
Witchy Woman
I Can't Tell You Why
The Long Run (my personal Fav!)
Heartache Tonight
Life's Been Good (to me so far)
Lyin' Eyes
Dirty Laundry
Peaceful Easy Feeling
Tequila Sunrise
and they saved
Hotel California and
Desperado for the encore!
Here's some pictures I took...
