Talking Last Holiday Movie

Hi everyone. Just wanted to comment on a movie i watched with my daughter last night. Last Holiday with Queen Latifa. I wanted to see it when it was in the movies last year but never got around to it. I have to say it was really a good movie. Not only funny but one that left you thinking at the end. Basically if you never heard of it , there is a woman who has all these dreams she puts in a scrapbook called "possibilities". Its pics of places she dreams of going, people she dreams of meeting and a man she dreams of being with. Anyway she is very conservative, saves all her money , works hard and dont spend on herself. She bumps her head and is told they found some virus and tumor in her head and she has about 3 weeks left to live. With this news she takes out her book , cashes in her IRA, all her savings and goes to the place she dreams of going. She stays in a beautfiul hotel, spends thousands on a presidential suite and just spends and spends and does all these things she always wanted to, snowboarding, spa treatments etc. She enjoyes her self so much .....then at the end finds out that the cat scan machine was faulty and she isnt going to die at all.......The man she has feelings for gets together with her and she does her last dream and opens up a resturaunt and from then on enjoyes her life as if EVERY DAY WAS HER LAST DAY.

It just really makes you think about life and how we only have one chance to live it to its fullest. Are you living your life the way you always dreamed? I know that if i was told today that i had 3 weeks to live i would not be ok with that because there is so much out there that i still want to do. DOnt get me wrong i am very greatful for my family and what i do have however there is so much more outside of my comfort zone that i want to experience and hope that one day i will get the courage to do so.....

Anyway just wanted to share that before i head out the door to work.

Love ya

LittleLisaMarie

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I saw the movie and the movie is a very good movie. That show does make a person think, what if it was our last days what would we do. I feel like you do, I am not ready becasue there is so much I want to do and I want to see my grandkids grow up and get married and have kids of their own. But the show had a very good point and I like how she helped other people come to terms with themselves. At the end I was so happy that she was ok and went on with her dreams. I am a person who crys when I watch some movies. My kids use to make fun of me when I did that. My husband does not know what to say when he see me cry when some movies are on, most of the time I try to hide my crying, I guess I am an emotional person.

Lisa and Kitty - thats a lesson we all need to put into practice. I have lost a few people I was close to at a young age and it really hits home how we cant take eachother for granted and how we should love like we'll never get another chance - I think about this when I'm ready to kill one of my kids for some silly trick they've pulled - LOL - seriously, its a great lesson, and I believe that some day we'll look back and not regret the extra things we've done and time we've spent with those important to us. Here's to you two - May you have an opportunity to fulfill a wish soon! Happy Christmas
