It's no surprise that our economy is in a major recession, but when I see messages of big retail stores closing their doors, some before the holiday season even ends, it's frustrating to think about the many people out there who will be unemployed and searching for work throughout the holidays, just so they can pay their bills. Before our new President-elect takes on any more significant issues, I think the first plan of action is to figure out how to rescue the US from this major economic ...
18 Days and Counting…
Yes, it's true friends... only 18 more days until my favorite artist of all time releases her new cleverly-titled CD "Circus"... since her personal life has been somewhat of a circus itself these past 2 years, I think the name says it all. An earlier post I wrote features Britney's new "Womanizer" video, but thanks to the folks at 103.5 KTU- New York, loyal fans can hear a remix of 6 of Britney's new songs including:WomanizerCircusOut From UnderKill the LightsIf You See AmyUnusual YouWhen I saw ...
Happy, Happy Birthday
Today marks 2 special birthdays... my friend Ryan Mullins is turning 25 so welcome to the club Big Boy! Trust me, it's not as bad as you think and you can still claim to be part of the "young 20's club" which I don't plan on leaving anytime soon. I met Ryan through my boyfriend and he has become a very close friend of mine. Always fun to be around, very amusing, with a genuine personality, he plays professional baseball as a pitcher and it VERY talented (I'll brag on him since he never does so ...
Hollywood Comes to Nashville
When I get down in the dumps about how Nashville is always typecast as a "small, country, hicktown," it always makes me happy when an exciting event comes to town and blows everyone away with our Southern Hospitality. Last night marked the 42nd Annual Country Music Association Awards, which was broadcast from our very own Sommet Center downtown. Hosted by Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood, I tuned in and actually watched the entire show (which is hard for me to do because award shows usually ...
We Can All Do Our Part
Growing up, my parents always taught me that you should help those that are less fortunate than yourself, and that lesson has stuck with me to this day. Even though I can't donate lots of money or make a huge difference, I like to think I do what I can, and though it may be small, it does help someone out there. As the seasons change and the temperatures drop, I can't help but think of those who are homeless, those who are cold, those who are hungry, and how we can each do our part to help. Here ...
What A Week Its Been…
Never in all my years has so much happened in one week... some changes I am not happy about, but I have to admit this has been a roller-coaster emotion kind of week for me, and others I am sure are right there with me.Monday, November 2nd - in an official press conference from the University of Tennessee, Phillip Fulmer announced this would be his final season as head coach. You could see by all the emotion he had this wasn't his decision. As a loyal and dedicated fan to the VOLS, I have seen ...
