Idol live blog

Jennifer Hudson was classic, I really like her. She made me, with her performance in Dream Girls.

bottom three Anoop, Matt and Lil. Glad Anoop is safe

I finally get to see Miley Cyrus sing. I have never seen her before and still do not even understand the whole Hannah Montana thing.

She is a bit nasally.. i really do not understand anything she is saying, get your hair out of your eyes girl!

Matt and Lil, Simon claims there is one he will save. Neither of them have been listening to their advice. Matt keeps trying to sing Rock and Roll and that is not his genre, Lil is told to be more soulful/gospel and the Rose is not a song you can do that to. I love the Rose it had has always been one of my favorite songs.

wow so Matt is going to be sent home, Lil needs to get her act together, or she will go home next week unless someone really messes up.

I hate this song, but they are going to use the save...these people are freaks. I guessed right.

That was a very intense Idol...Paula is on drugs.

Matt's jacket is ugly.

I cannot wait for disco week. Lil can/should do a crazy Donna Summers song.

Well I wanted have a last post in my critique of Michelle Obama's clothes during all the hoopla. The thing is she has a kickin bod and really could wear anything. I think what the issue is that she just does not accessorize well the green gloves and shoes just did not match that dress. I think the other thing she needs to consider is the weather. That dress she wore yesterday morning was just to spring, she would have smoked them had she worn red that is good cold color.

here are some examples of the gloves and shoes that to me just did not go.




here are the shoes:
I was not digging the dress at all. She would have rocked the house with something either with thinner straps or with a halter that one strap thing was a bit to thick and the texture on the dress really was not working, she is tall and thin and that texture really made her look dumpy and a little Gone with the Windish...






They are kinda cute when they flirt with each other.

I could not a picture and was posting this as Aretha was singing, she definitely wins the award...




Here are some guests that are all going for an award for best hat at the inauguration.








Who do you think has the best the hat???

see what I mean

Look at this picture. Laura looks flawless and very put together:

Yikes!

Traci and Kelli told me I should live blog about the inauguration today. Specifically how I think that Michelle Obama needs a major overhaul in her clothing. She is a terrible dresser, I think that she has a good body, but really needs a Rachel Zoe or a what not to wear intervention. This first picture is her going to the church for morning prayer service...

Gold Lama for a church service?



The problem will be that Laura will look very put together and classy.

I will continue to live blog all the fashion on this historic day.

So I was a total bum and missed gratitude month, but I wanted to give a shout out to my family. Probably the best way to describe them is they are nuts, but we have a lot of laughs together. Through the years we have been through a lot, our parents divorce, the death of our brother, I miss Keith every day, cancer. We keep plugging along and wetting our pants, what else can you do. What else should you do?

This picture was taken at the wedding of the first grandchild and the first wedding of the nieces and nephews. That wedding was a blast.

Girls are from Venus, boys are from Mars

So on Saturday my really fun husband said he would go with me to this quilt shop I had seen online. We got in the jeep plugged the address in the GPS and away we went. The place was in Morgantown, PA and we avoided the turnpike and went the back way through Downingtown it was a nice drive and we had a really fun time.

The quilt shop was a really kooky place, it was like a loft around a grocery store. Mick and I had a blast looking down at all the food shoppers and eyeing our purchases, we laughed a lot.

While we were driving home, we were looking at the the different cars on the road and started talking about how GM apologized for making crappy cars. I then made a very huge mistake. I mentioned that I have only owned 1 American car in my lifetime well what happened after that was Mick then proceeded to tell me every car he has ever purchased, how much they were, where he was working when he bought it and how it got wrecked (he very rarely has just gotten tired of a car and bought a new one. After many minutes of this I got completely hysterical laughing because I did not remember asking him his car history, but like a boy he felt the need to tell me. It was a very funny moment and made me really think about how different men and women are.
