Gee...that would have been a hard one for me to vote on. I think they are all nice and you arranged ea so nicely too. I guess white makes a statement with it's classic look which is always lovely. Good luck on your blog..I hope you post here too when you can. I'm always forgetting to look! lol jane

Oh,Jan, I never noticed your follow-up post! So sorry :D That song is an oldie for real! And it IS Loretta Lynn, along with Conway Twitty, it's called "You're The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly",lolol! My husband is a musician....and when asked what KIND of music he plays, he says "both kinds...country AND western"....we both have a really twisted sense of humor and not everyone always "gets it" but it makes us giggle :D I just wanted to post that Daisy got her blog give away package and photos are on my blog :D Here is a link that might be useful: Kudzu's Blog

Luckily, I was able to keep myself in denial and figured I'd cross that bridge when I got there. I was telling myself that chances are it is not that far back. The me of a few years ago would have have slept and would have panicked myself into a tizzy. I am trying to be more mature about things and stress only when I have to. Since we could not know the answer for a while, I had told myself no need to get a jump on worrying. I can always worry when we have a precise answer. Dh had a major health problem a few years ago and we got through a lot since then, so I have learned the hard way to be careful how I stress myself since it put things into perspective. The brother I spoke to (not the joker) said they don't imagine it being more than $600 and maybe much less. They said that our bsmt will be less damp after it is fixed and that if we had waited years longer to find it, the damage could have been much worse since it was not visible from anywhere. They said it was only a matter of time until we had carpenter ants feasting on the wet wood!

Doesn't the 4th place winner get $50,000 anyway? I wonder if they just made that public or is she getting an extra $50K? I'm glad though, I think the school where she works will get enough bad publicity from this and be forced to give her her old job back. Surely the "fame" that is causing her problems will die off now. When the jury was asking their questions, Amanda blew it and Todd soared into the lead. I looked at Woody and said "Todd's going to win this" and he agreed. "Doe-eyes" was right, Amanda didn't work it to win in the jury's eyes, she would have done better to take Denise to the final three with her, she MIGHT have gotten more than 1 vote. Todd played the better game, he is a slippery little sucker. I just hate his hair, though. And the long sideburns, ugh. He's like a cheap Elvis impersonater. lol Amazing what eye makeup can do for Courtney. I barely recognized her. She really wasn't pretending to be anything she wasn't though, she was rude on the show every Thursday and she was REALLY rude last night. Did you see her flip Jeff off when he took her to task for saying such rude things about Denise? She had her fingers to her mouth and dropped all of them but the middle one. Man, I can't believe they showed that, he'll be PO'd when he watches that rerun! Actually, though- I think she amuses him, he'll probably laugh.
