My Secret Non Crafty Addiction....Shhhh...don't tell

Anyone, besides me, remember this contestant from last years American Idol? That's right boys and girls. I'm an American Idol addict. I missed the first several years of it. Then we adopted our two kids and the fun began. They, of course, just had to watch it. I, of course, got caught up in it and the rest is history. I will have to pat myself on the back though as I have picked the winner from the beginning three years in a row. It's so sad to think I spend my time this way. When this one was on here, my online friend, Jess, just had to make me this pic. Yep....she's hot alright.

Can you tell my mood has lifted. I had three hours of sleep and now I'm just goofy. I would sew some, but then I'd just have to rip it all out due to lack of concentration skills. Perhaps a nap is in order ... because .... yes.....the new season of "Lost" starts tonight and I want to be upright and paying attention when it does. I think I might have to check out the new show "Eli Stone" too and see if it's worth my Tivo time. Most televison is so lousy that I don't bother, but every once in a while.....something comes along.....
Basement is dry today. I'm just taking it a day at a time. I have most of the paperwork gathered for the adjustor and can mail that in on Monday. I'm waiting a few days to make sure nothing else is wrecked. Tony, my accountant will be here Saturday to do some tax stuff for me. I think I'll invite him for dinner to make up for freaking him out on the phone yesterday. He's such a nice guy, divorced, about 35-38ish, tall, not bad looking either. He needs a good woman because his exwife was nuts. Not run of the mill "goofy". Full fledged, over the edge, lights are on and no one is home....NUTS! Funny story time: We (my company) did some work at his home for him one time and he was also in the middle of doing some dry wall stuff. His wife came home and couldn't find her cat. She called me screaming that we had closed the cat up in the walls. First, we don't do drywall. We do heating and cooling. Second, the cat was not in the walls. She went nuts on me....she was going to sue me, blah blah blah.... I hung up on her and called Tony. He went home and she had knocked down every wall on one floor of their home with a sledgehammer looking for the cat. The cat was upstairs in her bed the whole time. The woman was nuts. Wouldn't he just die if he knew I was telling this stuff? LOL

I'm off now...daughter just got home from school. Mom time now.....then a nap.......

I won't tell! I too, love American Idol! I have been watching since Reuben Studdard won.

Glad your basement is dry, and hope it stays that way.

I love American Idol! But sadly I did not get to watch it last year or so far this year. See, when I say we live in the woods, I really mean it...I don't have tv, well I have a tv but we have to watch DVD's. We did have a satelite a few years ago and then we lost signal and the satelite guys said that signal couldn't be picked back up. And also there is no cable tv anywhere close to where I live. But hopefully I will have satelite this weekend. We are trying to go through a different provider and have to buy special things to pull in signal. It has cost me an arm and a leg to order it, so it better work. I have been watching the tracking info on the computer for the past two days. Now it says it should arrive tomorrow, but I bet it will be Monday!!!!
