Blame It On The Moon

(click on image to enlarge)

As you can see, I'm still having some problems with my blog. I did finally get the columns back, but now I can't get my banner to work :( If anyone can help me & tell me where to put my banner code in my template, I would be forever grateful! Right now, I have my banner downloaded on photobucket, but I'm wondering if I should download it to a different site? I love my banner & don't want to lose it :(

The other night, Jim & I were sitting outside on our front porch & some people were walking through the neighborhood commenting about how big the moon was. So, being the scrapbooker that I am, I ran inside to get my camera & went in search of the moon. Wow, they were right.....the moon was gorgeous! I love the way this picture turned out & you can even see some clouds around the moon.

I've been in a really weird mood lately. Somewhat depressed because the anniversary of the day we lost Karen & Jimmy is fast approaching. Hard to believe that it will be 2 years on the 29th of this month :( Then at other times, I'm trying to have fun & be more active. Jim & I have been going golfing, shopping, going to movies & just enjoying time together. But sometimes, I still feel guilty for enjoying life. Weird, I know, but I don't know how else to explain it. I know in my heart that Karen would want me to continue to live & have fun because that's just the type of person she was. But at the same time, I still cry everyday when I think of her!

One thing I have been doing for the past 2 weeks is exercising on my treadmill & boy, does that feel good! I've noticed that I even have more energy now, which is something I really need! I'm determined to stick with it this time. I know I can! And I will!

This week, Jim, Cassie & I went to see the movie Talladega Nights. Hilarious movie! Being the Nascar fans that Jim & I are, we both just loved it! But I would NOT recommend this movie for kids under the age of, say, 14 as there is some strong language in it. Would you believe that Jeff Gordon turned down an offer to be in this movie? Personally, I'm glad he wasn't in it, lol, but then again, I didn't care for Dale Jr. being in it, either. Kasey would have done a much better job ;)

I read Lorrie's blog today & noticed that she tagged whoever read it, so here's my responses:

NOW, if you're reading this, consider yourself TAGGED. Copy & paste the questions into your blog and tag three friends! :)

I was going to post some more pictures of my cool scrapbooking finds, but of course, blogger isn't cooperating & I'm too tired to keep trying to get them to load, so they'll have to wait until next time.

Until then,
Benita
