This is awesome. I love really crazy wedding videos that surprise the guests (and if it surprises the bride, even better).

I can definitely see my husband doing this with his friends (though probably not with Justin Bieber though).

Would your husband do this? What do you think about his dance?

When you go to have eye surgery done, don’t wear a shirt that you go at a blogging conference. I spend most of my surgery talking about blogging, but that’s cool. Yep, I was awake for the sty removal. It ended up being 5 (yes 5!) stys on my eyelid. However, the surprise was that even though it was actually looking better, it was not. Once he got in there, he ended up removing part of my lower eyelid. What looked like skin was actually a big puss ball. Yummy, I know. They ended up sending the gunk they got off to get tested. Of course, I forgot to ask what they were testing for (it’s not like you get sent to Preparatory School before surgery so you know what to ask).

Now, I know the overriding question is if I’ll need surgery to fix what they took out.  It depends how it heals.  There is a definite divet in my eyelid.  However, I don’t think it is all that noticeable.  I notice it because I know its there.  I’m not too sure if others do or not.  I’ve spent the better part of the last couple days not being able to drive or see.  Bill and Grandma did the honors of taking the kids to their respective independent schools).

At this point, it’s wait and see.  I’ve got a follow up appointment in 2 weeks and I’ll let you all know more then!  (However, I am leaning towards the not getting it fixed if insurance isn’t going to pay to fix it).

I did it! I kept it a surprise from the kids (so far at least!). Bill and I will be taking the kids to Disney on Ice tonight!  We may need some medical Supplies when Madison figures out where we are going!  They are going to be sooooo excited!  All Madison knows at this point is that we have a surprise for her and Will.  My kids are huge fans of Disney on Ice, so I know tonights show will not disappoint (and since it is on ice we don’t have to worry about burn care for any one!).  I’m debating if we should tell them on the way there or wait till we get there or let her figure it out herself.  Decisions, decisions . . . . .

Will you be attending Disney on Ice while they are here?  Are your kids fans of Disney on Ice?  (Side note:  Disney on Ice Toy Story 3 will be coming in January.  We aren’t telling the kids that either.  Will is a huge Toy Story fan, so he will freak when we go to that show!!!!).

Gen. Ann E. Dunwoody
55 years old from Fort Belvoir, Virginia

Call it breaking the brass ceiling. Ann E. Dunwoody, after 33 years in the Army, ascended Friday to a peak never before reached by a woman in the U.S. military: four-star general.

At an emotional promotion ceremony, Dunwoody looked back on her years in uniform, said it was a credit to the Army?and a great surprise to her?that she would make history in a male-dominated military.

“Thirty-three years after I took the oath as a second lieutenant, I have to tell you this is not exactly how I envisioned my life unfolding,” she told a standing-room-only auditorium. “Even as a young kid, all I ever wanted to do was teach physical education and raise a family.

“It was clear to me that my Army experience was just going to be a two-year detour en route to my fitness profession,” she added. “So when asked, `Ann, did you ever think you were going to be a general officer, to say nothing about a four-star?’ I say, `Not in my wildest dreams.’

“There is no one more surprised than I?except, of course, my husband. You know what they say, `Behind every successful woman there is an astonished man.’”

You can read the rest of Gen. Dunwoody’s story here.

These brave men and women sacrifice so much in their lives so that others may enjoy the freedoms we get to enjoy everyday. For that, I am proud to call them Hero.
We Should Not Only Mourn These Men And Women Who Died, We Should Also Thank God That Such People Lived

Ok, if you have this TIVOd or missed watching it, quit reading right now!  If you don’t watch the show, well none of this will make sense.  I have to say that this was one of the best premieres ever!  Seriously, Nick steps back into the mess we like to call the Darling family.  Jeremy is after Nick’s wife who succombs to his kiss when he gets her drunk (though I can’t figure out why it was okay for him to kiss Karen but heaven forbid his wife does the same thing!).  Karen turns down Nick (who saw that coming?) for a kiss or more.  Now, I can’t tell for sure if Karen really fell for Simon or if they are still playing the game.  I also would love to know who he called after Karen left.  That I haven’t figure out yet.  I really don’t get why Patrick didn’t call the police after his wife hit her head?  He didn’t do it, so I don’t know why he had to cover it up.  The end of the show was the biggest surprise ever!  We all thought that they were coming for Patrick.  Instead, they arrested Letitia for Nick’s dad’s murder! Personally, I think she’s being set up.  I think this is a loose thread that the series will always have as a back story.

This is going to be a great season of Dirty Sexy Money!
