Stuff

On American Idol: Adam Lambert got my vote. Kris was good. No disrespect, yet that other final spot shoulda been Danny Gokey. My say: Adam wins tomorrow.

Waiting now for the winner of Dancing With the Stars: I hope Gilles. At the senior center I now am a member of, has ballroom lessons. I'm gonna give that a twirl.

And today, a woman I use to be pen pals with, starting in 1974, found me on Facebook! We lost touch about 2003, when I quit my other job. We'd e-mailed pretty regularly, after we found each other again. Never met. Were Osmonds fans, when she sent me that first letter. She lived in Hawaii and me in Iowa. We wrote for a long time and lost and found and lost and found and lost--yet found again. I hope for awhile this time. In 1974, stamps, I think, were 8 cents.

On top of all that
One more day closer to Friday.
Gotta love THAT!
I do.

Some 70's Feeling...

I venture to Donny.com a few times a week. I admit it. I was there during the Osmond Hey Day of the '70's. I admit I saw 26 Osmond concerts before I saw any other performer. I feared that performer wouldn't EVER be as good as the Osmonds....That next performer was...The Bee Gees, at the peak of Saturday Night Live---and to think I was scared....


Back to the Donny. com--there's a thread that some of their old LP's will be relased. My heart skipped a beat. My favorite Osmond lp--stay with me here--is Phase III. It was their 3rd album. Still way before Donny and Marie. Listen to this album. They rocked on "Business" and "My Drum" --it wasn't your tween years "One Bad Apple."

I will always wonder how the Osmonds would have been, if Donny & Marie hadn't happened. Don't get me wrong, I like D & M--yet, I just wonder....what if.....

Thoughts of Past Loves

The Holidays are pretty much right here. Yep.  Especially since three Christmas movies, in the last three days, between Lifetime and Ha...
