Super Sara

This . . .
My son Nathan was home this weekend for his ten year class reunion, along with Amy, Eli, and Lucy. The activity around the house increased a notch or two for sure. Grandma was busy cooking this and that, and the rest of us were busy eating this and that, and keeping up with Lucy and Eli.
At one point my mom said, "Lucy is faster than I am!"
Everyone else knew that already.
Eli and Lucy were forever trying to catch up with our cats,
Putcat and Jasper.
In frustration Eli proclaimed, "The kitty is NOT in my hands!"
Eli sleeps in my room on the floor. He woke up at about 7:00 Sunday morning and just sat and looked at me til he woke me up with his gaze. I opened my eyes and he said, "Are you awake Grandpa?"
Lucy doesn't snuggle very well when she is going to sleep, but when she first wakes up, the snuggle is on!"
Fun week-end.

That . . .
I thought Sara Palin's appearance on SNL was a bad idea. Kind of like hangin' with the enemy.
I think I could have improved the skit quite a bit, here's how . . .
.
This is That . . .
It was all good up to the point where everyone was singing and dancing with Sara sitting and dancing off to the side. At that point, Sara should have secretly signaled for Tina Fey to come sit in for her unknown to the others. Then Sara would slip in to a phone booth and come out as Super Sara. With a side kick to the head, she would take out that stupid singing girl, and then deck the others with consecutive blows. Alec Baldwin would make an attempt to save the day, but he would slip on a moose hide and tumble into a hockey ring where he would be pelted by hockey moms. This would leave Tina Fey quitely doing her Palin dance routine at the desk, and Sara would walk up behind her with this big cream pie and place it firmly in her face. Then the camera would cut away to a shot of Sara, her husband and all their kids laughing hysterically because . . .
that's funny.
