Medium in 3D

I wonder how many people bought the TV Guide this week to get the 3D glasses for 'Medium' tonight? I think it's a cool concept, but maybe I was too far away to really appreciate or see the whole effect of it. I should have been sitting like 2 feet in front of the tv. I am near-sighted and I could never get those books that were popular a few years ago, also 3D or you were suppose to see the design moving. I usually felt half sick trying not to blink.

I went out in the rain to food shop. I really didn't want to go. I was hoping it wouldn't be too crowded and it wasn't at all. I had a coupon for $18 off if you spend $180. With Thanksgiving looming and it being over a week since I shopped, I had no problem spending that. I even treated myself to some flowers for the dinner table. I figured they were free.

When I got home I made a batch of chili in about 20 minutes, took care of laundry and getting the flowers in a vase so I could see Oprah's holiday giveaway show. I am so glad that the audience all helped in the Katrina relief effort. They got some awesome things like a video Ipod and a desktop computer. And a diamond watch.

My house doesn't look like it is ready for company. It's just going to be Brian's dad and my mom, though the guys are squawking at having to go get her that day. She really isn't able to drive herself 45 minutes. I was even thinking of us eating and then taking mom and Jim dinner and having dessert with them. Brian thinks I will be too tired. He may be right, I know what time of the month it is (perfect timing) and I haven't felt great all week. Wish me luck because I need it!

My friend Vikki from Philly sent me some lovely things for my birthday today. She handmade me a silver beaded bracelet with teal beads (can you tell I like that color?) She also sent me a scissor fob made from beads and homemade beads. I'll have to take a photo of them. I appreciate getting a sharp pair of scissors too. I can't forget the little Uncle Sam button she also made that will go on something Patriotic. Thanks VG! We've chatted a few times on the phone lately which is nice, but my father-in-law keeps interrupting us-every time!

Gonna go watch Jimmy Carter on the Tonight Show, one of my favorite ex-prez and all around human. I wrote a paper about the election back in 1976 and got an 'A' on it, so I've admired him that long!
