Welcome to the 2011 Ultimate Blog Party: Look for the $25 CVS gift card I submitted as a prize for the party

I am so happy you decided to join me for the party. Kick back and stay a while. I will be serving food and drinks and adding more prizes on my blog.

Don't forget to look for the $25 gift card I submitted on the prize list at the 2011 Ultimate Blog Party.

'Grey's Anatomy' musical episode rocked the night, didn't disappoint

Following in the footsteps of Glee success, 'Grey's Anatomy' musical episode rocked the night. I was definitely entertained.

This week I think American Idol voters almost got it right. I am glad they sent Naima Adedapo home - finally. However, instead of Thia Megia, I would have preferred Casey Abrams being sent home since he was voted off last week.

At least all the best are still in the game.

Our family is having a rough time and needs your prayers. My niece, Dana, has been involved in a tragic auto accident.

Please, continue praying. Our family needs her.

There are two other people who were in the accident, the driver and another passenger who are in serious condition, and they could use some prayers, too.
