Hey everyone!!! Long time no see!!! Missed all of you, so thought I'd catch you all up on goings-on at my house.

Things are not really going all that great at the moment. My husband keeps getting laid off every month because the company he works for (a supplier for Ford) keeps laying off their employees. And it seems that he may not have a job for too much longer because they are saying the company may not be in operation for much longer. At the outset, probably he has a year till he's unemployed permanently . In the meantime he is looking for another job. Hopefully he will find one soon.

I have taken a job working for Cedar Point. For those of you unfamiliar with this company, it is an amusement park in Sandusky Ohio. I work at one of their hotels taking care of the linens. Unfortunately it is a seasonal job, so I have to look for another more permanent job so I can be employed once the season is done.


On a positive note, both boys have made it to the next grade. My oldes padawan is to be in the ninth grade, while the other is to be in the fourth grade. Wow, does time fly!! And our daughter is keeping us busy in the meantime. Next March or April I will have to sign her up for kindergarten!!

Does the chewing gum lose it's flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Ain't gotta clue. I don't chew gum much, and don't let it sit after use.

Do you read the EU, and if so, who is your fave character and why?
No I don't get into the EU much. Maybe you could help me out with some good series??

Do you think it would have been better for the galaxy if 1. Qui-gon discovered Anakin and everything went as it goes/ 2. Qui-gon didn't discover Anakin?
Hmmm.................Sometimes I wonder that too. Would it have been better if Anakin had not been discovered?? Who's to say. Fortunately he made the right choice in the end.

What would be your stand-out favourite scene from any SW movie?
I'd have to say Episode V--- the revelation that Darth Vader is Luke Skywalker's father. I was like OMG!! when I saw that scene for the first time.

Do you think Owen thought of having Anakin for a stepbrother?
Hmm........I don't think he was very comfortable knowing he had a Jedi in the family. And when Anakin became Darth Vader, it was made even worse!
(but we don't know for sure if Owen knew Anakin and Vader were the same person)
