Besides serving as an easy-to-remember code for less-creative computer users, "password" is often used as the default password for many web sites and programs, making it extremely common and not at all secure. In other words, "password" is a bad password.

Other perennial favorites include "God," "sex," "money," and "love." Passwords based on the names or birthdays of partners, children, or pets are also quite common. Here's a pretty lengthy list of common passwords. Make sure to scan it and look for yours. If yours made the list, it's probably a good idea to change it.

It's been a busy and fun filled weekend.

Yesterday was a celebration for my Father inlaw's 75th birthday!  It was held at a lovely park.  We took baby girl with us, she put all the little boys to shame on the monkey bars!  She is one strong athletic little girl.  It took me half an hour in the tub to get her clean from all the sand and dirt that was smeared on her face, feet and all the folds on her chubby little body.  She's like a little boy rolled up in a beautiful little girl :)

After her bath, she sat snuggled up with me on couch with her blankey.  I love snuggle time with her.

This morning she and Papaw flew her Dora kite.  Then of course we had to have scrambled eggs and toast!  "Eggs and toast, eggs and toast" this has become her mantra on the mornings spent with Mimi and Papaw. 

After breakfast we danced to Hips don't lie by Shakira.  I think I freaked Papaw out with my loose hips! hahaha!  Little does he know I've been practicing! ;)  At 12:20 PM, my pedometer is already showing 2286 steps.  I think some of those are shimmys!

Our little sugar lump is on her way home now to see Mommy and Daddy.  I love her to bits but, I'm always ready for some down time when she leaves.

Here are some pics I snapped yesterday and today.

 

Last night my husband and I lit a big bonfire and while we were standing around the fire, the neighbor's horse, Jupiter came sauntering up to the fence with a rooster perched on his back.  I thought it was a great photo op so, off I ran to get my camera.

After I had run several yards, KERSPLAT! Down I went on my knees first then my face!  Right in the mud.  Misty our golden retriever thought this was a wonderful opportunity to play with me.  The 80 lb. fur ball came pouncing toward me while my husband was yelling for her to stop.  I held up my foot to detour her.  Luckily she didn't pounce on me.  I was fine, no broken bones, just muddy knees and hands.

After I changed clothes, hubby and I went to get something for dinner.  I ran into a deli for a salad while he went into the chinese place next door for take-out.  I was standing in line to pay for my food when the man behind me gently tapped me on the shoulder.  I turned around to find a tall thin man with a bandana on his head and cigarette behind his ear.  He said "you have a leaf in your hair" then he very softly plucked the leaf from my hair and handed it to me.  (I'm still not sure why he thought I wanted the leaf)

I explained to him that I'd just had a roll in the yard.  I fibbed and told him the dog tripped me  He went on to tell me how pretty my hair was!  That was nice but it felt a bit odd to hear that standing in the check out lane or anywhere really.  I'm not sure why?  He seemed to take a little too much pleasure in touching my hair.  I probably read way too much into it.

I think had it been the other way around, I would have said nothing and probably just wondered in silence why the leaf was there.

After I had paid and was walking away, I thanked him.  He yelled very loudly...much louder than necessary, "You have a wonderful evening"  Nice guy but, as I said....it all felt odd.

What's that they say about Tuesday child being full of GRACE?  I'm sure I was meant to be born on Thursday!

The End

Hello Everyone :)

It's been a week since I've made an entry.  I find it hard to come up with things to write about that anyone would find worthy of reading but, that's never stopped me before.

Recently wedding plans have filled my mind.  Even though I'm not completely thrilled that my daughters are getting married, I've tried to just resign myself to the fact that they are and throw myself head on into the planning of the weddings.

I ordered my dress for my oldest daughter's wedding online and received it today.  It's too big but, my SIL is a wonderful seamstress so I'm hoping she can help me out.  My youngest daughter was able to see it in an email I sent to her and her response to me was, "It's very pretty Mom but I think you could sex it up a bit more"  HELLO!  I'm the Mother of the Bride, not the girl who jumps out of the cake at the bachelor party!  haha, she's a hoot!

As soon as I find the picture of her wedding dress, I'll post a picture of it too.  She's beautiful in it.  I think I even saw a tear in her Dad's eye when she stepped out of the dressing room.  I think he caught a glimpse of the price tag!

Be honest, should I "sex it up it up a bit more"?   Of course I'm kidding...(it's hard to tell from the picture but, the top is beaded)

My Dress

The past two weeks have been heavenly.  It's been hovering in the upper 70's, low 80's, with wall to wall sunshine.  To sum it up, the weather has been PERFECT!  Yesterday we were under severe thunder storm warnings and tornado watches all day.  The sun kept playing hide and seek.  One minute it was sunny then the next the sun would duck behind a cloud.  I kept thinking it was going to ran any minute but to my surprise it held out most of the day.

When my husband got home we were out in the yard piddling around when the wind picked up.  I knew then it was inevitible..it was going to rain and ruin our perfect run of beautiful weather.  I walked around to the side door of the garage when I felt a VERY cold burst of air!  One second I was actually considering going in to change into shorts because it was so warm and the next, I had goosebumps on my arms.  I thought the garage had been blocking the wind until I said to my husband that he should feel how cold it was, he replied with, yeah, it feels like the temp just dropped 20 degrees.  That's the kind of weather tornados are made of.  I've never in my life seen such a drastic change in the temperature.  (I know, I'm easily amused)

The rest of the week calls for rain and the temps dropping to sub freezing! GRRR!

How dare Mother Nature tease me with such beautiful weather, let the little plants poke their heads out of the ground, then BAM!  20 degrees?  

I know, patience grasshopper, Summer will be here in due time.  At least the kids had a lovely Spring Break.  Probably the best I remember since my children have been in school.  

If I were a bear, I'd be really pissed right now!

I just returned a bit ago from dropping my poor little Honda Accord off at the body shop for repairs. When I arrived there was supposed to be a rental car waiting for me but, it seems someone goofed up the scheduling and they had me down for tomorrow. No biggie, one phone call and twenty minutes later, I had a car to drive.

I really think when your car goes in for repairs, they should give you a corvette convertible to drive. It may be the one and only chance you get to drive such a car. Not that my life will be any less full without it but, what fun that would be for a week! Especially right now! The weather is gorgeous and all the trees are blooming. It would be great to drive around with the top down.
I guess I'll have to settle for my moon roof when I get my car back.

We had an unscheduled visitor this weekend. My husband's daughter called us at about 7 PM on Saturday evening to say that Lexy was crying when they tried to leave her with her "Aunt Tongy" and she wanted her Mimi. So off we go to Kentucky to pick up the tad spoiled toddler. As soon as she saw us, she said, Mimi, will you take me to Chuckie Cheese? UGH! "How about Walmart?" Which is what we did. We've taken Lexy and Kaden to CC twice and although it's fun for them, it's something I have to prepare my mind for in advance. Sort of like going in for a root canal.

Spring break is over and my son is back in school. Finally! Not that I don't enjoy time with my son, I do but, it really messes with my schedule to have him home all day everyday for a week.

So it's back to the regularly scheduled programming. Hopefully I'll make it to the gym today, do a bit of house work and cook a meal. We ate out every meal this weekend with the exception of one lunch. We've got to stop doing that! I wish we had all the money we've spent on eating out.

I hope everyone has a lovely week.

BE SAFE!

OH, I nearly forgot! (which is a good thing) Yesterday was my 8 year anniversary of being diagnosed with MS. Yep, it was on April Fool's Day! I'm still waiting for someone to tell me it was all a big joke. :-)~
