I kept on waiting for her to "start up", you know, come alive and start really dancing. Especially when he wound her up with the key, I thought the routine would really start. It was the oddest thing.

We love Dance Dance Revolution
even my DH who doen't like to dance. It is a lot of fun and we get some exercise in as well. Would love to try Guitar Hero!
THANK YOU MARIE!!!
I spoke on this a few weeks back when some 36 year old guy went on a rant with his parents (a topic posted by someone here, can't recall who)..this guy was whining about his life and it was his parent's fault, etc...I too was brought up in the time when as a child if you did something wrong - you were punished for it, and believe me, I received my fair share of spanikngs, etc. It didn't kill me but one thing it did teach me - that there ARE LIMITS and if you cross the boundary established by your parents - you had understand that there are CONSEQUENCES; which sadly many kids this day and age do not have. I am a believer in the scripture 'spare the rod and spoil the child' and unfortunately it has come to pass with the fact that you cannot discipline your children as you deem appropriate for fear of running afoul of the law, and these kids are smart enough to know this and use it at times against their parents because they don't want to listen. I had written a few weeks ago about a good friend of mine who had a twelve year old daughter who went to school and lied on her mom; said her mom beat her, etc. My friend was arrested at work, had to go to court, the kid was taken by CPS - it was awful. My friend did spank her daughter but did NOT BEAT her, no marks on her at all. This kid did this to her mom because her mother would not allow her to 'hang out' with older kids (16/17 year olds), so this kid makes up this story because she didn't get her way and do what she wanted. The parents were separated, so the kid was sent to live with her dad and she tried the same stunt on him but it didn't work. It's sad that we live in fear of our own children in this day and age.

Marie Osmond
Dancing with the stars! Yep, she did. Did you see her pass out? I could not believe what I was seeing. Live TV, you just never know what is going to happen. She was not real chipper and bubbly like normal afterward. Glad it turned out OK.
Hey Marie - I don't know where to get the icons
They do make the post much more fun to read. I always see people putting little funny icons in but I don't know where to find them.
You are right on about the hicks. There are just a few things in this life I don't understand.
1. Why aren't people considerate of their neighbors.
2. Why don't people love their pets like we love ours and take care of them the truly decent way.
3. Why there are so many criminals. I just want to scream "hello out there - you need to wake up and live like the rest of us - making an honest life for yourself. If it's not yours don't take it.
Okay, the list could go on and on but am too tired right now. Thanks for the funny little smiley things.
Marie, your post says it all about you.
And where your values lie. Watch out where you point that finger, you have 3 pointing back at you.
So You Think You Can Dance
My absolutely favorite TV show of all time is back on. So you think you can dance. I love that show. DH loves it too. I miss it all year til it comes on every May. Anyone else watch it?
Sounds like Marie on Everybody Loves Raymond. nm
Marie is probably a lot nicer though.
Marie - I was ROFL reading your post
Sorry I know its not funny especially for you. That is totally disgusting. They sound like the nieghbors we had in Reno, but they didn't have pets - it was their stinking food and stuff they left all over. Why do people live like such nasty ho's. Well we may not have the dog poo but they did do something with their back yard and fertilizer and it really stinks and now we are infested with flies here. I won't call Animal control because they really are not cruel to their dog, they just let it bark all the time then it goes inside once it gets dark out. They do play with their dog too (its constantly getting loose and they are running up and down the street yelling for it - dog comes back). None of our neighbors have their dogs tied up, they just let them roam free. I like the solution that Jim Carey did in a movie called Me, Myself and Irene when he kept telling his neighbor to stop letting the dog poo on his lawn. He went over to his neighbors lawn and took a dump on it in broad daylight while the neighbor watched. I thought that was hysterical. Well sounds like you needed to vent more than I did. I'll count myself lucky reading about you. Four years probably seems like forever to you too. Wish you best.
they volunteer to dance; not where do they get...nm

Daughter's 7th grade dance
My 13-year-old daughter is having her 7th grade dance in a few weeks, and yes, they definitely go overboard. A friend's daughter went last year and she said the girls looked like they were going to a wedding. The sad thing was she was dressed very casually (they were told it was a Hawaiian theme if they didn't want to get all dressed up. When she got there she saw all the girls dressed to the nines and she started crying and didn't want to go in for fear of what the others would say. I thought that was just awful. There is a no limo rule, but there were some that broke that rule and the school did nothing about it. My daughter is getting a new dress, but she knows it's going to be a simple dress, one that she can wear more than just this one time. We're definitely not made of money and she knows it. She may not always like it, but she knows it.
Father-Daughter and First Dance
Father-Daughter dance - Unforgettable, Nat Cole
First dance - At last, Etta James
Next dance - I've Got Friends in Low Places, Garth Brooks
Lots of Nat Cole songs are good and really meaningful. I cried when my daughter and husband danced that dance to that song. It was like letting her know she was cherished and not to be forgotten, just moving on to another time in her life.
They were on the View today, did exactly same dance sm
with the slap included. She wasn't outraged, she was acting/dancing.
Singles' Dance - No message
: )
Too many people felt sorry for Jane & Marie and gave them votes ..
so they wouldn't be eliminated, figuring the other dancers were too good to be eliminated. I agree it's too much of a popularity contest and not a dancing competition. On "Skating with the Stars" I think it was Kristy Swanson who fell in love with her teacher/partner, and he left his wife for her and now the two have a baby together.
Baby Alive doll
Here's a tip if you bought your daughter a Baby Alive doll for Christmas. Go to Wal-mart and buy the White Cloud newborn size diapers, 40 to a pack -- they fit better than the Baby Alive doll diapers and they don't leak! Much cheaper way to go if your little one feeds her new baby as much as mine dones.
Baby Alive Doll
I am so pleased you were able to find one! My daughter told her grandparents that is what she wanted and they waited until the last minute and of course the dolls were sold out. I went to Wal-Mart on Christmas Eve of all days and they had gotten a small shipment in. There were only a few dolls on the shelf and I was able to get one. People were taking them off the shelf as I was standing there looking for the least damaged box. I had a Baby Alive as a child, my oldest had the one from the 90s and now my youngest has one. It seems to have become a tradition around here. LOL
Does anyone own an American Girl Doll?
I'm working on a bedding set for ebay and I need the measurement of the drop from the top of the mattress to the floor for the bedskirt. This could be Felicity's, Abby's or Samantha's bed, I think they all measure the same. I have a doll bed but it's not American Girl and I think the drop is different. Thanks.
LOL, the chicken dance? That was banned from my wedding.
No way, no how. Nor the *hokey pokey* or *hands up*. LOL! I opted for *electric slide*, *shout*, *let's twist again*, *we are family*, *celebration*, *gloria*, *i will survive*, *shake your booty*, *YMCA*, *play that funky music*. We had such a blast!
I think Shep's a doll ;) watch him everyday

Your baby girl is a little doll - thanks for sharing. nm

I have a barberry - thorns and china doll and boy
holly under my window where I work. I won't be aware anything is going on until I hear a huge ruckus of twittering birds in those bushes and look out and there sits Cooper. He has gotten mourning doves and when I was walking I saw him with a baby something this summer. I love my birds but that hawk is gorgeous and I have been told by bird feeding stores that the hawk doesn't eat much. It takes him many attempts to come up with a meal.
American Girl Doll Products
I know this is general gab, but does anyone have any American Girl stuff to sell. I am trying to put together a collection for Christmas but can't afford anything but second-hand prices. E-Bay is way expensive too. Thanks! 
American Girl Doll things
I posted this before and a very kind MT responded with American Girl dolls for sale for Christmas. I am still searching for Samantha, Kit and Nellie and I am also looking for extra American Girl outfits. Any suggestions where else to look? I have watched Craig's List but not much going on there. If any MT would like to sell American Girl doll things, please let me know. You can reach me by e-mail through this site. Thanks for any offers or advice on getting second-hand AG dolls for Christmas gifts.
It's a comic book. What's next, a barbie doll?

father-daughter dance - old Italian song...
Aw, we loved it (except for the scary part! LOL). Great dance music! nm

I am 40 and I still have my Baby Alive doll - packed away in my attic. Love her! sm
Gave her to my daughter when she was little and she loved her - now all her dolls and mine are stored away in the attic for the next generation. I can't get rid of them....don't know why... too many memories I guess. I love dolls.
If the lady had this doll at a yard sale, apparently it didn't mean that much to her. sm
and maybe the mom said to her daughter that anything at the yard sale is for sale at any price - she just wants to get rid of it. You shouldn't judge unless you know all the facts.
Check eBay. I am a doll collector and restorer on the side sm
I am also into reborning, though I have yet to have any to ebay. I tend to do very personalized custom dolls. I also sew doll clothing, but I chose not to do that this year because I have not had the right kind of time.
Save my email address because I will start to have some doll clothing next year when I am no longer on hiatus. I had to take the time off because I am landscape painting this fall, now I feel badly I can't help you!
Another dead
They just reported on CNN that an 18-year-old girl died from the VT shooting.

Fruitcake lLady dead. SM.
The fruitcake lady died this month. Here are some clips, get ready to laugh:

I could not put this under comedy, even though it is. There are some 4-letter words in these clips, nothing terrible.
fox news is saying that anna is dead. i think it's very sad too. nm

CNN says she's dead - died at the hospital....
found unconscious in a hotel room. So sad that she had such a wasted life.
Maybe we should not beat a dead hourse (sm)
Hopefully we can all agree that what works in one marriage may not in another?
