Im a bit o' the mutt...

People often ask me what my nationality is and being that my last name is French, they choose that one right away. Well folks, let me break it down for you:
From my dad i get: French, German, Welsh, Native American Chippewa
From my mom i get: German, Irish, Scottish and Welsh

So I can celebrate many holidays, including Bastille Day and St. Patrick's Day. I can eat sour kraut with the best of them, wear killer kilts and I pull off feathers pretty well too!

You could adopt a Native American baby, unlike much of the rest of us!

Heather... Kelly is right! You pass the bland skandahoovian test if you can eat spicy.
Buddy is not really adopted.

I just busted up! "Buddy is not really adopted." I was following the humor, but thank you for the clarification. CAN'T WAIT FOR TONIGHT!!! I'm watching the clock so I can watch Kelly watch Ben.

When Buddy was born the doctors called him a Mongoloid, because at that point they weren't using the term Down's Syndrome yet. So it is a HUGE inside joke that we adopted Buddy from Mongolia!

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
