Surprise Halloween

For me, I think the best prank that I can remember is when I was a child. We lived a few states away from my grandparents and one halloween my parents and us kids drove to my grandparents house. My grandparents had no idea we were coming for a visit! This was going to be a total surprise for them!

When we were nearly there, my dad stopped the car and we dressed up in our halloween costumes with masks and all. I believe I was a little princess. Remember those plastic masks? Anyway, my dad pulled over about 50 yards from their house. The plan was my brother and I were going to not say who we were when my granny opened the door. She wouldn't know with us wearing our masks. We would only reveal who we were at the very end when she gave us the candy.

It was evening and we ran up to the door and rang the door bell. I was so excited to be fooling my granny. My grandmother answered the door and I said, "Trick or Treat Granny!".

Sleepless In Seattle?

ABC's  The Bachelor, wimp or man?

Personally, now what is it about the bachelor that makes him so intriguing?  Is it his smile?  Or those  intense and romantic brown eyes?

I totally think Jason M. is a real man. However, he does border ever so closely to a wimpy kinda guy.  I like it when a man can show his emotions, when he can really show how he feels when it comes to love, and being in love.  Jason is kind, loving, fun and is capable of showing his love which a lot more than most men out there.  He had a hard choice.  I don't know why he went with the first one to begin with.  "You chose the wrong one!" I'd shout, if only he could hear me.  The chemistry between the two, him and Molly was undeniably there.  The one main reason that he should have noticed but was too much in the thick of things to realize is that he cried hard when he let her go.  Molly was right on when she's said, "you've made a big mistake."  I agreed.

Have you ever said that to a guy you were dating and broke things off with you?

I don't think most women want a man who cries at the drop of a hat.  That's going too far.  But when it comes to affairs of the heart, it's tough.  He'd been divorced and for those of us who have been through one, you might second guess yourself when a love decision comes around again.  You just might force yourself to go with the "other" one just simply because you think you might be attracting the same type again.  Oooh so confusing love is sometimes!

Reality.  We need to be realistic when it comes to love.  Too many of us, man or woman, get caught up in the romance. Should romance last a lifetime?  Does it fade, but the real love stay over the years?  

All in all, Jason made the right moves.  He not only thought about himself, but did think about those involved.  Love hurts sometimes, but if you have the right balance of heart and mind and consider those involved, you'll make the right choice.

No more sleepless nights in Seattle for Jason!  Or, at least, no more heartbreaking sleepless nights in Seattle, thanks to Molly.  I wish them the very best and I believe they're going to make it!

I ask you, what is your definition of love?
