He is currently on the hit TV show The Mentalist, but he has also done quite a few movies. If you have not seen the movie “Something New” I would definitely check it out! It’s a great movie and he is ohhhh so yummy!

Poem and Apology! February 9, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — Marta @ 9:44 pm

Well when my best friend who hardly reads my blog (I’m kidding ,you know I love you mama!) points out to me that I haven’t written much lately, I know I’m slacking off! lol

So for the few of you that do read my blog I’m sorry I have been neglecting the blog lately and I promise I will start writing much much more! This past month and a half has been crazy…I am working full time, going to school full time, and then on my “free” time with my 3 boys…my son, a new special someone in my life and his son but I will tell you more about that later since I have to run off to school! But I will leave you with this poem that I saw on my friends blog today, he told me I could post it on my blog, it’s so perfectly fitting for where my life is right now…

Life and Love~
Two things in this life that you just can’t control;
What happens tomorrow, and what you feel in your soul.
You seek to identify the answers within,
That take you steps closer to the place you’ll begin.
By the way of the journey, different questions you ask;
But the path was well worth it at the end of each task.
Why you’re here, what you’re doing, which direction you’ll take;
Who will love you for you at the end of each day.
Certain instances in time will deceive your clear view;
They’ll shake you, they’ll break you, and they’ll shape what you do.
In the end you’ve grown stronger from the hurt you’ve obtained,
They’ve empowered your feelings, but the questions remain.
How can you get over precious moments in time,
That will make you the person someone else will desire?
True love is a gauntlet with no easy way out,
That will always grab hold of inconceivable doubt.
In a sense it’s quite beautiful, and can bring you great joy;
It’s one key in the life of one girl, and one boy.
It can be deceitful; Lord, it can be unjust,
But to live without love is to live without trust.
God designs us with flaws, so we’ll be incomplete;
We struggle and work for what we seek to achieve.
Nothings easy in life, and there will always be pain;
To be human is to fall over and over again.
We pick ourselves up, and we dust ourselves off,
And shine a new light on the path that we walk.
Through the good, and the bad, as our lives do unfold,
As the journey brings hardship, and indignation takes hold;
We must always remember that our purpose for life,
Is to love with great courage, and with all of our might!
You can never anticipate what tomorrow brings forth;
But life without love makes living too short!

So normally my crush of the week is a man but this week I had to pick our new sexy President AND his gorgeous wife/First Lady. They are such a beautiful couple and with their daughters they have a gorgeous family. I love that you can see their love for each other just in the way they look at one another!
