Princes Beatrice has sold her hat that she wore to Will and Kate's wedding for a mere $131,650 all the money has gone to UNICEF. This hat has sure raised a lot of attention with many of us bloggers writing about it and news media commenting about that hat. One thing is for sure she sure got a lot of attention from the hat being called a toilet seat to antlers. Perhaps next time there is a Royal wedding it should be stipulated what type of head gear is allowed. 
As summer comes the sprinklers and slip and slides all come out. The showers are rare and the long summer is here. The wait for the cool breeze of fall seams light years away. In truth life is like this we are often running for that slip and slide not necessarily understanding that we are going to fall flat on our faces if we run to fast it all looks inviting and so we run just to find out that it was not so fun. But then there are those times in life when you have been through a trial or something and just a cool shower of hope makes you feel great. As summer comes really embrace it enjoy the cool breezes when they come make memories along a beach, or when you go for a walk and be thankful for every memory you make. Plant a garden sing in the rain and laugh.
Etiquette to some a thing from the past. But lets be real it is so nice when a man walks on the outside of the path, when a door is open to a woman or an older person. When you see a smiling face at a store. When if you don't have the right change it's not a big deal someone treats you still with respect and politeness. The days when a man would seat his lady where have those days gone. To many they are all but in days of old when the knight killed the dragon and won his fair maiden. I ask you seriously don't you wish that more people were just more polite and men treated women like they were a rose not a coke can ready to go through the crasher to be recycled.
Scotty McCreery was once just a normal teen went to church, did homework and worked in a grocery store. Then he went on American Idol and life changed. He is now a hometown hero but the few people who knew before his fame just view him as a normal teen who loved baseball and his music. God has so put this teen in a position to touch many people for Christ. I think many people get caught up in the stardom of things. Billy Graham has not sung on American Idol but look where he has ended up. Steven Curtis Chapman I wonder where he first began, his testimony and his families testimony is amazing. Corrie ten Boom a woman who was just an ordinary girl yet her life has touched others.
You know it is very rare to see a young man make such a stand like Scotty has. At his homecoming concert he quoted God so much and not just saying it to look good. You could tell that this young man had a true genuine heart. My heart went out to him and his family. As a single mum I truely admire families that stick together and raise amazing children. Not saying that a single parent cannot. But here even through Hollywood this young man stayed close to God. Scotty should dignity and wisdom not caring about popularity but making sure that God got the credit for bringing him this far.
In life there are often open doors open to us to reach a wider audience. As we watch American Idol a young man called Scotty McCreery has realy stood out. I am not a big country fan but this young man could make anyone love country his moral standards of how he beliefs in God shine through. It is not easy to make a stand and making a stand in such a place as Hollywood is no easy feet. I am presently impressed that even when given advice about song choices he has kept to his standards unlike some of the other contestants who seem to allow fame to dictate their choices.
As many were off to the races at the Kentucky Derby. The Duchess of Cambridge (Kate Middleton) was out practising for the olympics for the tandem race with her trolley at a local Waitrose. I loved going around Waitrose in England. Good for her that she is for the moment just being herself. Trolley cart and all. I do have to question I wonder how she paid! I am sure her debit card or cash was readily approved no phone number needed nor identification. Not like here where on a cheque everything is needed. Go for it Kate set the example for the Royals.
Lets face it we all had a dig at some of the hats worn at the Royal wedding. But if you look around and compare some hats it appears that the mad hatter lives in some designers. It appears that the Mad hatter came over to the Kentucky Derby his styles were on not just a lasses head but indeed men included were drawn by the madness. Mad hatter where will you strike next.
I have so much respect for single mum's anyone who has ever walked a mile in a single mum's shoes will see the many tears cried and sweated everything is on their shoulders good bad and ugly.
After finding out that yesterday was National no wear pants day. I decided to look up today. Many a woman will be excited to head off to Michaels stores and your local craft stores to buy yes today is National scrap book day. It amazes me that in a world where the economy is so bad we have all these special days perhaps it is done to encourage us to push our wages into the economy thus miraculously making it better. I am not sure.
Well I have heard it all I was on the internet today and saw yes can you believe it in Denver which I would imagine is a little chiller than the south they Have today as No pants Day. I have never heard of anything so silly. It appears there are days for everything I guess if you put them all on a calendar the calendar would be filled. I mean what a market for the card retailers my friend in England who paints would now have a market to draw more things as well as snow scenes. With pant day I did read that they are asking people to donate their pants. I do hope that on Saturday they get some new ones on. I mean somethings are best not seen. I think that perhaps we should have a no hat day especially for some Royal Brits.
As I reflect on the Royal wedding I thought a little fun was due. 
Mayor Boris gave Will and Kate a tandem bike,
I've heard it all, from tripping policeman making the crowds roar, from Will and Kate on fridge doors, to pearly whites engraved with Will and Kate forever more to adore. It appears the Mad Hatter lent his hats not just one but many at that royal act. With red, white, and blue flags flying high, and many a single lass waiting for Prince Harry to come by. With telly's on ,we watched balloons floating by, filling up the British skies. And joining in, in our English delights, we must not forget to put out our royal gnomes in the garden tonight. Let's not forget our furry friends, and buy them a Will and Kate coat for them to wear around the bend. So as my rhyme comes to an end, we're British royals til the end.
