Matt, Lola and I lost our precious Bleu Bear this weekend. It was the worst day of my life so far, and hopefully, ever. He was doing what he loved - running, and fought so hard. It was so shocking and so unreal, like a bad dream you can't wake up from.
I do not think we could have loved him more. We miss him so much. Please keep him and our family in your thoughts and prayers.
You will always be with us, Bleu. Always. Thank you for making us a family.

I'm Back, Baby!
So I ignored my blog for awhile, so sue me. I would explain what has gone on since then, but, frankly I don't want to, so I won't. There is too much happening to go into the past.
For one, Kelly Allen is engaged and I am planning her wedding! I am so excited - both for her and to plan the wedding. I am not sure why I love doing it so much, but I really do. I'm a freak, I know. And Trevor did the ring shopping all on his own. I am both impressed and shocked. That takes courage, Trevor! If you get the chance, check out Kell's newest sparkle addition - its ptetty awesome.
For two, my Mom is coming into town this weekend. I will spare you the details, but I could really use some Mom love right now. You know how sometimes, you just need your mom? I need my Mom. So thats awesome. BUT she is bringing her boyfriend for the first time. I don't know how this is going to go down. I feel like a little kid. I have met him several times and he is a super nice guy and they are like adorable together, but still. I'll keep you posted.
For three, I went to New Kids on the Block on Monday, and it was everything I wanted it to be and more. Screaming ridiculous girls. All the old classics. Some new stuff that Tracy apparently loves (hilarious by the way!). Free beer in a suite. Five middle aged guys who used to be cool taking their newly revived music career WAY too seriously. All and all, it was an awesome experience and totally money well spent. That is one life goal I didn't think I was going to get to check off. Life is full of surprises.
My motto for March (It's a tie this month): What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger AND God wouldn't give you more than He knows you can handle. However, every now and then I think the Big Guy might see a little more strength in me than i really have. Let's just hope He knows what He's doing :)
Happy Spring! (I am just assuming that the warm weather is going to make a quick comeback!).

TV Recap and Reviews
I know that you have all been wondering "what does Rachel watch and what does she think about my show?" I decided to tell you...
Biggest Loser - I am not sure how much I love this season. The 2 people I was originally pulling for, Jerry the old guy and Danny the young SUPER fat guy, are both gone. Who am I supposed to pull for now? And Joelle, she just annoys me. Sometimes I feel bad disliking her because I honestly think she might be retarded.
Desperate Housewives - I fully appreciated that they have embraced how ridiculous they are. Dave the creeper has got to go. And if he gets Porter sent to jail, there will be Hell to pay. Susan is no longer my favorite as she has become more annoying than usual. I now love the gay couple and Lynette the most.
Brothers and Sister - eeh... whatever. And PS, if my husband ever decided to think about running for governor and DIDN'T talk to me first, shit would hit the fan! Also, I don't really need to see Sally Fields hooking up.
Damages - Do you watch it? I recommend that you rent season 1 and get caught up. LOVE IT!
Big Love - I am not sure why I like this show, but I do. I feel it is both entertaining and educational. Not really, but whatever.
Flight of the Concords - sorry guys, just never got into it. They are just so dumb!
How I Met Your Mother - I love Duggie Howser, MD. Again, stupid, but I love it.
Two and a Half Men - Stupid, but love it. PS - how many facelifts has Charlie Sheen had? My vote is atleast 2.
Top Chef - I think I might have a foreigner crush on Fabio. I think he might play it up most of the time, but I love how he gets phrases all messed up. Also, what about the cheating hook ups last week? How awkward is it now that neither of them got kicked off, everyone knows they kissed AND got whatsherface sent home?!

In case you thought it was me, it wasn't
I was getting ready this morning and heard the news anchor say "Tulsa gets it's own reality show" and for a split second, I thought, I'm getting my show finally and this is how they are telling me. Then I came back to reality and realized, "I don't want to be on TLC."
In case you heard this too, and thought it might be me, it isn't. Sorry to disappoint. Even more disappointing: it is the RIDICULOUS Nosak show. In case you aren't familiar with Nosak, they cut down trees. Seriously. They are tree trimmers. Also, they are completely fake and obnoxious. They have a "show" on one of the local channels here, but it isn't a show, its an infomercial. They don't have commercials and they pay for the air time. It is is painful to watch, again, because they cut down trees and are rednecks. On the news this morning, the main person had on a huge, what I am assuming fake, fur hat with a back mullet/mudflap type thing happening.
Just to recap, I still don't have my own show, but now there is a show about tree trimmers in Tulsa. If that doesn't make for good TV, I don't know what does.
