Rest in Peace, George Osmond

I've truly enjoyed Dancing with the Stars this season. There has been so much drama. I was sorry to see that Marie Osmond's dad, George, passed away Tuesday morning. I thought it was a nice touch that when they announced it at the beginning of Tuesday's show, they said right away that Marie and Jonathan were safe for another week!

As a long-time Osmond fan (I still remember most of their birthdays and ages!), I always found their family history interesting. And poor Marie - can you imagine being the only girl, and having EIGHT brothers? I have 2 sisters and 2 brothers, and that was bad enough (HA!). Anyway, my sympathies go out to Alan, Wayne, Merrill, Jay, Donny, Marie, Jimmy, and the 2 older non-performing brothers, Virl and Tom. May George rest in peace!

Fun times with Lenore

While Lenore and Daniel were here, she had a library book panel at the Johnson County Library in Overland Park. So, on Tuesday afternoon, November 27th, Lenore, her friend Rachelle and I took off for KC. We had a great time visiting on the way up and back, and I didn't get tired at all driving! We stopped for a quick bite to eat at Arby's and filled up with gas at QT before heading to the library. It was an interesting panel featuring Bethany Hagen, author of Landry Park, which comes out next year; Gennifer Albin, author of Crewel, which was released a few months ago; and Lenore, whose book will be released on January 15. Here's the panel: Me & Lenore: Lenore & Rachelle: Gennifer, Bethany and Lenore

K-STATE WINS!

K-STATE beat KU! AWESOME! It was a tense game. Corby is a huge KU fan, and even having a son at K-State hasn't changed that. I am happy when any Kansas team does well; but I had to root for K-State tonight. If the Jayhawks had to lose, I'm glad it was to K-State. Michael Beasley is a great player, and my only concern is that he will leave after his freshman year and go pro. WAY TO GO CATS!
