Letter I
Idol
I love watching American Idol on TV each year. My girls and I began watching it the year that Fantasia won. We weren't watching because of her, but because we knew (sort-of) Diana DiGarmo who was the runner-up to Fantasia! Diana went to the same church that we went to when we lived in Atlanta. She was in Ashley's Sunday School class and was involved in a lot of the same activities. She and Ashley were never really friends, but Ashley remembers her. We have a few pictures and videos where we "think" we see Diana, but can not prove it. Anyway.... this year's Idol show is very good!! My favorites are Scotty & Lauren, but everyone that is on the show is so extremely talented!! Any one of them could win!
Idiot
This is the word that I use to call someone when they do something stupid. It normally is never anyone that I actually "know". It is usually someone that I see on TV or when I am driving. There are so many stupid drivers out there doing some really dumb (and dangerous!) things! So, when I see them... I say... "What an idiot!" or... "You, idiot!". Of course, they can not hear me! Thankfully!
Insects
Most of these little "buggy" creatures don't bother me. There are only a few that do, such as spiders!!!! I don't mind the little tiny ones.... but.... Ew!! I do NOT like the big ones!!! I will scream and pitch a fit if one is in my house!! I have been known to crawl up on my kitchen counter if there is one in my house and scream for someone to come and kill it! What is NOT fun is when I am home alone and one of these creepy creatures goes hurrying across my floor!! I have had to be brave and kill them myself. BLECH!!!!
Island
I love, love, love the beach!! So, escaping to an island would be WONDERFUL and has been wonderful the few times that I have been to one! Nothing beats that tropical breeze, the sun and the crystal clear, aqua blue waters!! Of course, I have to have some shade, tho! Can't handle too much sun!
Ikea
While David and I were in Atlanta this past weekend, we went to the Ikea store that is there. WOW!! What a store!! We actually got lost just trying to get inside the store!! It was very crowded, too! I think people came from all over to go shopping that day! The store has a little bit of everything. From furniture to lighting fixtures. From dishes to appliances. We had a fun time checking it out!
