Those items include computer cord, laptop, child’s toothbrush, black leather bag and belt, dinnerware knife, plastic hangers, blue crate, Dora the Explorer backpack, toy doll and various papers and binder. These were items that had been in the car. Cindy said that when she got in the car, there was a strong, unidentifiable odor. It was evident in the papers and the backpack. Regarding the dinnerware knife, Cindy said it appeared to be unused but had been washed since they found it. See page 180-182 http://www.orlandosentinel.com/media/acrobat/2008-08/41844520.pdf Conducted interviews of Tony Lazaro, Jeffrey Dale Hopkins II, Amy Huizenga, and Ricardo Morales.
Birch, Simon – Facility manager of the wrecking yard (Johnson’s Wrecker East) where Casey’s car was towed on June 30, 2008. After the car had been there a couple of weeks, he approached it and began to smell a foul odor. At the time, he did not pay further attention to the white Pontiac. On July 15, 2008, Birch was approached by Nicole Lett, who worked in the office, was dealing with two upset customers, George and Cindy Anthony. Cindy Anthony was trying to negotiate a discount for the towing fees; George agreed to pay the fees and provided the title and his driver license. As they walked, George Anthony mentioned that his daughter had been missing and that she would not allow him to see his granddaughter and has told several lies. When George opened the door of the car, a very foul odor came from inside. Mr. Birch recognized it as the same odor as had been in a car in which a man had committed suicide (his body had been in the car for about 5 days). When Mr. Birch said, “That’s rotten,” George did not reply. They opened the trunk in order to locate the source of the odor (flies flew out) and found a garbage bag, which Mr. Birch opened. Papers, a pizza box and maggots were in the bag. Mr. Birch threw the bag over a fence into the tow lot’s dumpster. George noticed the fuel gauge read empty and said he had a gas can in his car. He retrieved the gas can, apologized for his wife being upset, poured gas into the Pontiac and drove away.

Brown, Troy – Friend of Casey’s. Amy’s former roommate. Former boyfriend of Lauren Coppel. Troy met Casey for first time on his birthday (June 5, 2007) and became friends with her when she started dating Ricardo Morales. During discussion with sister about how much she got paid babysitting (he felt it was a low number), he said they should ask Casey since she had a nanny. Casey never gave him a straight answer. He never heard her refer to the nanny by name, nor did he see her make or take a call from the nanny.
Burner, Brian – Met with Appling Wells in parking lot of H&B Trading (his place of employment). Said he would be driving maroon Ford Taurus). Told her Casey borrowed a shovel possibly on July 16, 2008. He was doing yard work when Casey approached him and asked to borrow shovel to dig up bamboo root. She walked into Anthony garage (her car was in there which was unusual). When he was finished with his yard work, he went back to the front to see if Casey was finished. Her car was in the garage; nobody else seemed to be home (no other cars). She returned the shovel about an hour after borrowing.

England, Melissa – Friend of Troy Brown’s from Virginia. Visited Troy July 2 through July 5 (but still there on July 23 or back to give testimony?). Because Troy had to work July 3, she spent the day with Casey the day she got her tattoo (possibly). The first thing Casey had said to her upon meeting her July 2 was “We should get a tattoo” to which Melissa responded “You’re crazy. I’m not getting another tattoo.” During the time they were together, there was no mention of Caylee, which was a disappointment to Melissa since she was in a relationship with a man who had a baby, and she was looking forward to talking to Casey about kids.

Cindy mentioned Jesse as the person who had taken Casey to the hospital earlier in the year for a seizure. He contacted LE before they called him. He said that Casey was a habitual liar. On June 24, he had received a call from Casey. She was trying to cheer him up after a recent job loss, and wanted to get together that weekend because Caylee was with the nanny, and they had gone to the beach for the weekend. After learning that Caylee was missing, he called LE to give statement because it contradicted what Casey had been telling everyone.

Huizenga, Amy – Told Cindy where Casey could be found on July 15. She claims Casey picked her up at the airport around 1430 hours (2:30 p.m.) on July 15 in her (Amy’s) car. Amy had loaned Casey her car for the week she was gone. Amy claims Casey stole some checks and approximately $700. Amy lives with Ricardo Morales at 232 Glendwood Drive.

He says that the name Casey would refer to as the nanny was a caucasian name like Krista or Kristen (Noway Note: Lauren Gibbs was Casey’s babysitter until April 2006), but never a hispanic name like Zanaida.

After Caylee went missing, Ryan found out that Casey had told her mother that she and Ryan worked together at Sports Authority; however, Casey never worked there.
Plesea, Alex and Shirley – Cindy Anthony’s father and mother, Casey Anthony’s grandparents, Caylee’s great-grandparents. There is a picture of Alex and Caylee taken together on June 15, 2008, at Avante at Mount Dora Nursing and Rehab Center, where Alex lives. This shows that Caylee is alive as of June 15, 2008; Casey stated that she had not seen Caylee since June 9, 2008. Shirley stated that after visting Alex, they returned to her home and had dinner together. Cindy and Caylee left after that.

Don’t worry about her.”

On June 27, 2008, at 7 a.m., she observed the car parked next to the dumpster but took no action until the next day when she notified the Amscot corporate office. The corporate office instructed her to contact LE to ensure it was not stolen, and if not stolen, to wait another day and have it towed. She called the Orange County Sheriff’s office and was advised it was not stolen. On June 30, when she saw the car was still there, she called Johnson’s Wrecker, and a driver did tow the car.

On July 16, she received text message from Casey: Caylee is missing. She has been missing for the last 32 days …” She corresponded with Casey regarding this message and Casey told her to keep an eye out for “a silver Ford Focus, 4-door. Ms. Scheiber still had the emails and copied them into a Word file. She agreed to come to the station so that the text messages could be downloaded by computer forensics.
Segreaves, Michael – OCSO. Along with Tom Manderville, OCSO, met with Barbara J. Carey, supervisor at the U.S. post office at 501 North Semoran Boulevard.

This story was not believed to be related to her pregnancy with Caylee.
Strickland, Stan Judge: Signed court order to get Anthony Lazaro’s cell phone records. He is also the judge to whom Casey appeared in front of.

Casey called Chris later that night around 11:30 p.m. from jail, but he hung up without taking the call. He called his parents back and asked what he should do; they said not to take the call.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Today's question:
What are you most thankful for? Be honest!
To get things going, I'll go first.
I am thankful for my family. My daughters, my pets, and their health. I am thankful that despite, my cancer has returned, and is metastasis, at the moment, I am stable. I am so glad I got to have my cancer treatment last week, instead of this week. I am thankful my immediate family is together for dinner at home.
I am thankful for all the many wonderful people I have met through my blog, as well as others, and their beautiful prayers and caring. I know they are genuine and I could feel them last week during my treatment. People whom I have never met, taking time to pray for me and to have thoughts for me for my speedy recovery is just totally overpowering and good.
Would love for you to share what you are thankful for. I love reading about the readers. After cooking, or eating, take a break, and let me know!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your families and most of all.

An Old Fashioned Birthday
My youngest daughter, SpoiledChild 2, turned 12 a few weeks ago.
This was the first year I did not do the whole "let's see who can have the biggest birthday party" thing. A birthday party is a birthday party. And I finally realized, after all of those fancy parties, I was missing out on the most important thing: the birthDAY. After all the planning, organizing, setting up, etc., I was too exhausted to enjoy it.
My daughter called this an "Old Fashioned Birthday Party". Sometimes it's nice to just be simple. We had the most wonderful time together baking and decorating her cake. So what if it wasn't the bakery cake from years gone by. It tasted delicious. It was the one she wanted, Funfetti with vanilla icing and sprinkles. (okay, so I made the icing) The day was just so stress free and relaxed. Afterwards, we ordered pizza, at her request. And all was good.
She wanted the "good old fashioned homemade by mom" birthday cake!!
*With sqiggly candles!*
**********************************
Make a Wish!!!
***********************************
Cheezin' with Sister and Friend
***********************************
Oh Yeah! She got her wish......
Now my beautiful, manicured, backyard that I worked so lovingly on this summer is a dirt track. But I look at it as a sign of happy times. It can be re-manicured next spring.
Life is too short to worry about grass.

Casey Anthony's Favorite Song...Could it Hold Clues??
It has been reported that Casey Anthony listened to this song repeatedly over the months leading up to and after the disappearance of Caylee. The video is the song with lyrics only. I find it very haunting, chilling and telling.
In one verse of the song, it mentions about life being like a roller coaster. On their Today show interview, when asked how this ordeal has affected him and Cindy, George replies, "it is like a roller coaster". At the time I thought, what an odd response. What could possibly be any "highs" you would have from knowing your granddaughter is possibly dead.
Coincidence? Maybe. My opinion, yes. You decide.
"The Past" by SevenDust w/ Chris Daughtry courtesy YouTube
Florida TV station WFTV-Channel 9 reported Thursday, November 20, 2008, that SEVENDUST’s song “The Past” was played repeatedly by Casey Anthony — who has been charged with first-degree murder in the disappearance of her daughter, Caylee — while she was out on bond. The SEVENDUST track carries this lyric: “Beneath the water that’s falling from my eyes, Lays a soul I’ve left behind.” The song was also apparently a topic of discussion on “Nancy Grace”, a nightly current affairs show on CNN’s Headline News hosted by Nancy Ann Grace, an American legal commentator, television host, and former prosecutor.
SEVENDUST has issued the following statement regarding the matter:
“After hearing the news that our song ‘The Past’ was a topic of discussion on the Nancy Grace show yesterday, we would like to elaborate. The song was written as a song of hope. A song with positive message. To look back on your life and reflect and to feel good about getting through the rough times that everyone goes through, the roller coaster of life, so to speak.
“We regret that we’ve been linked to the horrible subject involving the disappearance of little Caylee Anthony. Most of us have children and have been saddened by the story from the beginning.
“We pray for the safe return of this beautiful young child and wish her family strength.”

PHOTO OF POSSIBLE CAYLEE ANTHONY SIGHTING
Could this be Caylee Anthony?
This photo was released by the Anthony's on Thursday, November 20, 2008. It is a cell phone photo taken by two women who were at an undisclosed location in Orlando. These women did not send the photo to Orange County Sheriff's Office, nor to the Anthony's. Instead, they took the time to "research" the Anthony's Private Investigative firm, D & A Investigations. It was from there the photo was made available to the Anthony's, who then set up an interview with Channel 13 in Orlando to release the photo.
This photo was taken on Sunday, November 16, 2008. After a turn around of almost 5 full days, the photo was released to the public.
Notice in the picture that the child speculated to be Caylee is touching part of the play area equipment. After this time lapse, one would think all hopes of fingerprints would be gone. These areas are maintained and cleaned daily, not to mention the number of other children who would have touched that same area. I realize that with today's high tech forensic equipment, partial fingerprints can be obtained. I just don't believe in the likely hood of that happening. Today is another day going by that no one is testing. Where is the Anthony's PI? Why is he not testing for prints?
There is no date on the photo. How do we not know this is a photo from an earlier time in Caylee's life, if it is even Caylee. I see similarities. My heart would love for this to be her. However, my mind and my following of the case tell me otherwise. If Caylee were to walk through Cindy and George's front door right now, who was decomposing in the trunk of Casey's car?
When given one last opportunity to make a statement to whomever may have Caylee, George Anthony did not address the kidnappers. I do not now of one time that the Anthony's have ever addressed the "kidnappers". George's statement was that "..anyone who thinks they have seen Caylee, call us, call KidFinders, call D & A Investigations. And if you still feel secure in contacting the authorities, call them..." As George made this remark, Cindy, who sat with her head down during the entire interview, shook her head and said, "No, call us."
George also stated that he would go above heads and the authority to bring Caylee home. He had lost all trust in the authorities since day two of this ordeal. He also re-issued Lee Anthony's statement from the last vigil for Caylee, that "....the authorities are supposed to protect and serve. Who is protecting Caylee?"
My answer to your comment, Lee, is your sister, Casey, was supposed to be protecting and serving Caylee. She failed at both. Miserably.

NeJame Quits As Attorney for Anthony Family
Prominent Orlando attorney Mark NeJame told WESH 2 News Thursday that he is withdrawing as attorney for George and Cindy Anthony, whose daughter is charged with murdering their granddaughter.
In an interview with WESH 2 News reporter Bob Kealing, NeJame said he was frustrated with the direction the Anthonys have taken, especially that they continue to contend that Caylee Anthony is alive.
NeJame said, in a news release, that the family's belief limited his ability to represent them. "What is the sense of having an adviser, if you are not going to follow his advice."
"If I'm going to serve as an adviser, then you have to follow my advice," Nejame said of his relationship with the Anthonys.
NeJame was at George Anthony’s side when Anthony was a key witness in the grand jury proceedings that led to an indictment of Casey Anthony on first-degree murder and other charges.
Casey Anthony is being held in Orange County Jail on no bond awaiting trial that is scheduled to start in January.
The Anthony family issued a statement late Thursday, which said:
"We respect Mr. NeJame's decision to resign as our representative, as we agree that he can no longer benefit us in our quest to find our missing granddaughter, Caylee Marie."

NeJame Press Release
NeJame's News Release:
Unfortunately, I have made the decision that it is best not to continue my representation of George and Cindy Anthony.
George and Cindy have a belief that their beloved granddaughter, Caylee, is still alive. Tips and leads continue to come in. I believe strongly that they should have every right to maintain their hope and faith that one of these "sightings" will miraculously be the one that brings Caylee home to them. What parent or grandparent would surrender such hope? Who is one person to tell another parent or grandparent when it is time for them to abandon their faith? When does a stranger have the right to judge another who has endured such a loss? The attacks made against them by some are deplorable. Let them be to do what they feel they must to find their beloved granddaughter, Caylee. Knowing this case as well as probably anyone on earth, there is no doubt that they do not know where Caylee is. Allow them to walk their own path.
I only agreed to represent George and Cindy Anthony, so long as there were no restrictions placed on me whatsoever as to finding Caylee, regardless of where this might lead. Quite simply, this meant that I could do whatever I needed to find Caylee whether she was alive or not. It impressed me that George and Cindy, both believing that Caylee was still with us, had an overriding and primary concern in finding Caylee, even if the result was not as they would hope. The other condition I required was that I would have absolutely nothing to do with representing Casey or assisting in her legal defense.
Abundant efforts have been made towards finding Caylee. I have worked with so many involved in this matter towards the goal of finding this dear, missing child who has captured the hearts of so many. Some ignorant and judgmental members of the public though have made hateful and inaccurate accusations against me and others, when they had no idea whatsoever what was really going on. As my new, good friend, Tim Miller from Equusearch, tells me "everybody associated with this case gets body slammed." However, like Tim, when you know in your heart that you're doing the right thing, you just move forward knowing that right will ultimately win out. Some have falsely accused me and some others of being in this for the money. If they only knew how utterly wrong and misguided they are.
I had come to a personal opinion and theory for quite some time whether Caylee was still with us or not. However, my opinion was only one like any other…an opinion. The only person without an opinion though is Casey Anthony as only she knows the truth. I believe that the singular person out of the 6 billion people in the world who holds the key to finding Caylee is her mother, Casey Anthony. Although I was quite successful in resolving a multitude of matters, I am unable to go further to help George and Cindy find Caylee in my current role. I can only provide my best advice and must respect any client's prerogative to do what they deem is best, whether they choose to follow my guidance or not. However, there is little value or use I can provide to any client if they choose to act and comment at will.
As someone who has learned and knows the inner workings and details of the case and its various characters intimately, the rampant sensationalism and unfounded accusations must stop. Allow Cindy and George Anthony the respect and decency of dealing with their hope and efforts to find their missing and beloved Caylee as they need to. Allow those with differing opinions on finding and searching for Caylee, whether she is with us or not, to do their jobs without interruption. Finally, the judicial system is in play and justice will be best served by mindless meddlers staying out of something they know little of. There are many wonderful people involved in efforts to find Caylee and there are, unfortunately, many who are exploiting this child. Sadly, most in the public are clueless about who is doing what and what is really going on. The negative actions of some are only counterproductive and hurtful to the cause of those many good people who are doing so much to do something positive with this most sad and tragic situation. There should only be one goal and that is to find Caylee Marie Anthony.

Cindy Anthony Craves the Spotlight
Cindy loves the media spotlight.
courtesy USA Today
I am anxiously awaiting the Anthony Family's presser regarding their "hard evidence" they have that beautiful Caylee Anthony is alive. It is supposed to take place "sometime this week".
If there is "hard evidence" this family has their mitts on, why in the hell have they not turned it over to Orange County's finest? Why is Caylee not at home already? It's Thursday already. Only two more days left in this week. How much longer can they wait?
Cindy contradicts herself each time she opens her mouth. From the first 911 calls, she stated Caylee was gone. She also stated that Casey had been missing as well, if you recall. Problem is Cindy, you knew Casey wasn't "missing", you just didn't know where she was. Cindy stated the car smelled like "a body in the damn car". Now, the smell is contributed to pizza, squirrels, other road kill, etc. Hell, renowned forensic scientist Henry Lee is stating now that the car was literally filled with garbage. (wondering if that little tidbit was a "leak" on Baez's behalf) Dr. Lee states there was "meat, cheese, frozen dinners, and a case of soda". Dr. Lee, famous forensic scientist, also known for the infamous O J Simpson trial, now on the Casey Anthony defense team, believes that lunchmeat, and frozen dinners are the cause of the decomposition smell in the car. Which, if you haven't heard, is still pungent after 4 and a half months. Who drives around with frozen dinners in their car? Oh, this is Casey Anthony I am speaking of, I forgot.
Cindy's other contradictions are that the family's focus has been on an "alive" Caylee from day one. Why the freak out over the decomp smell? Is your daughter in the habit of driving around with decomposing bodies in her car? No Cindy, you are in the medical profession, George is a former homicide detective, turned used car salesman, turned security officer. You both should know what decomposition smells like. I am in the medical field and I do. It is something you do not ever wish to smell. Once you do, you do not forget it.
Cindy stated two days ago "that until something concrete comes in from the "authorities", and not just speculation from someone else, this is what our focus is on." With focus meaning an "alive" Caylee. What are the "sightings" you are reporting each time a search is held? Have they been concrete? No. Just speculation. None of these sighting has proven any knowledge that Caylee is out there. So I wonder, what is the difference between your speculation and everyone related to the case and law enforcement's speculation?
Casey Anthony is NOT a victim. Stop saying she is, Cindy. Caylee is the only victim in this case. Cindy and George Anthony have been victimized by the acts their daughter, Casey, has committed.
Anyone find this picture as eerie as I? Who smiles while awaiting a first appearance in court, much less a bond hearing? I guess she liked the pink handcuffs. Makes me wonder what is really going on in that "mind" of Casey.
Something tells me this will be "the shot" for the movie preview. Please do not let there be a movie.
Amy Huizenga is a victim of Casey, as well. How soon you forget, Cindy, the day you called Amy in a frantic frenzy wanting to know the whereabouts of Casey. If not for Amy, who knows how long this saga would have went on before law enforcement was called. Cindy's version of this story doesn't sit well with me either. Cindy claims she found Amy's phone number on a piece of paper in the car after it was brought home from the tow-in lot. Casey made hundreds of text messages a day. Why would she have Amy's phone number on a piece of paper in her car when she would text her multiple times every single day. Hell, it was just that day, that Casey picked up Amy from the airport in Amy's car. Not being able to fit everyone returning with Amy from Puerto Rico in the car, Amy drove Casey back to Tony's apartment. She then returned to pick up the other friends from the airport. How convenient, on this day of days, Cindy contacts Amy within, at the most, 2 hours of her returning to Orlando and dropping Casey off at Tony's. Cindy admits she spoke to Casey on the phone during the 31 days. Cindy has said Casey was on a vacation, or at a conference for her bogus employer. But yet, again, on the 911 call, Cindy states Casey had been missing as well. The truth, we know now is Cindy had spoken to Casey, but had not known her whereabouts until the day of the 911 call, when Amy took Cindy to Tony's.

Cindy speaks of Casey's "mis-truths". That is sorta like being "kinda pregnant", either you are or you are not. You either tell the truth or you lie. A lie is a lie is a lie. You have done a fine job of raising liars. But hey, what can you expect, they learned from the best. And yes, Cindy, lying can be against the law. Your daughter is proof of it. There is also that little thing call perjury..remember that when you are on the stand.
So back to waiting for the press conference. I'm sure it will be cancelled as was the interview with Nancy Grace last Friday night, along with the first conference promised at the beginning of the week.
If you do have evidence, Cindy, why wait? Why wouldn't you want Caylee home with you. How sad your Christmas will be without her. I go through holidays without a close loved one of mine. It doesn't get easier and the first holidays alone are the worst. I suppose you can ease your pain by holding more press junkets.

I realize you want to hold on to every ounce of hope that Caylee is alive. I get it. I really do. I have had one foot in your shoes. Not with a child, but with an adult. My mind raced day and night. As much as I wanted to hope for "life", I couldn't help but let my mind think of "death". I scanned each news broadcast every night just to see if an unknown body had been found. No, I didn't have media covering me, reporters nor microphones in my face 24/7. I had my city and county law enforcement working with me and my family. That was all. There are small similarities, but yes, my story is majorly different. However, anyone who is missing a family member, a loved one, shows some kind of emotion. Mostly a heart heavy pleading for information, a breaking down of emotions. Not rude insults to those who care and want to help. I have yet to hear you plead to anyone, someone, even if it were Zenaida, to bring Caylee home. Only a "She's out there." "She's alive." If you are really having people watched, and know who they are and where Caylee is, why in the living hell you are in, have you not brought that baby home? I would give my life if I were in your shoes if it meant my child would be back home with family and live a full life.
I pray for Caylee every night. I feel she is already with the angels. I also pray for your Cindy and George. My prayers for Casey is that she will learn to tell the truth. That Casey will tell the location of little Caylee's remains so that they may rest in peace.
This beautiful little girl will always be forever young and live in many of our hearts for a long time to come. A unique tight knit group of people who have taken Caylee in as our own. We want closure for this as well.
Casey, you have affected more people than you intended. You did a selfish act by taking that precious girls life. What you are probably unaware of though, is you have also made thousands of people hurt, cry, and join together in the name of Caylee. You are the loser in all of this. How do you not see that?
I am all for the death penalty, but in your case, I am undecided. I believe death for you is an easy way out. I can only imagine what Caylee went through. I think your punishment should be life in prison, without parole. That would give you each day of the remainder of your miserable life to remember what you have done.
But something tells me you are still only thinking of yourself.

If you thought for a half a second that I or either of my parents would not have taken down whatever you had put up in reference to something untrue as to my neice, you are being played for a fool by "law enforcement" and anyone else of their ilk. Tim Miller is disgusting for reasons that will be addressed at a later time. Don't even get me started on the bounty hunter.On behalf of Caylee's entire family, show her some respect and put your attention or any efforts on how you can spread the word to help find her because she is alive and missing. If you can't come to terms with that, then she, nor anyone else, doesn't need your help!Don't get me wrong, I have tons of respect for people's kind hearts and wanting to do what they feel. However, to believe something with no basis in reality is just foolish in my opinion. Of course, you can enjoy your opinion as well.

Pictures of Toys Found in Caylee Anthony Search Dive
Casey wearing "shamrock" pendant that was reportedly found in bag with toys during this weeks dive in Blanchard Park.
Green toy unidentified at this time, pulled from bag at search.
Toy in bag from dive at Blanchard Park during dive for Caylee.
****************************
video link below
Click on link below to hear Cindy Anthony spew more shit about the case and how "no one is helping Caylee." She objected to the prayer service and to Leonard Padilla's own efforts to search Little Econ River at Blanchard Park, a park where Caylee loved to visit. This is also the park that Casey claims she left Caylee with Zenaida after her "Sawgrass Apartment" story fell through.
Thories also floating are that Casey claims she left Caylee at "Sawgrass Apartments". While there is such an apartment complex, the Little Econ River is highly overgrown with "sawgrass", common in Florida.
Over the past weekend, beads were found that match a cross with beads similar to the arts and crafts beads found in Casey's bedroom. The cross necklace with beading was found by a TES searcher in August and a picture was taken. More beads were unearthed under the same tree by Padilla's searchers this past weekend under the same tree.
Cindy Anthony wants to deny anthing that has to do with Caylee's "body". She is under the impression this child is alive. Although it is her opinion, there is enough evidence to more than speculate that this child is no longer alive. Cindy has an agenda to bash everyone that attempts to help her search, while she has not been seen searching. Although it is speculated she "lurks" in blogs and message boards related to the case.
I would be more than thankful to anyone that would help in anyway to find my child if they were missing. Live search or recovery. This family needs closure. I feel as long as there is no body, she does not really believe Caylee is alive, she knows there will be media on her and her daughter Casey. Cindy is a media whore and ungrateful. It is not hard to see the apple did not fall far from the tree.
Everytime there is new information on the searches, Cindy comes out with a "Caylee sighting".
There have been 2 "sightings" in the last 5 days. On Saturday, a sighting in Gainesville, that turnout futile. Also, Thursday, after the find at Blanchard Park, Cindy released a second sighting tip that she did not even respond to in person. The authorities there said it was not Caylee.

Larry Garrison, Anthony Spokesperson, Fired
A spokesman for Cindy and George Anthony was fired after the family discovered he was making money by licensing family photos, an attorney said Wednesday afternoon.
Mark NeJame said the Anthonys let their California spokesman, Larry Garrison, go after finding out he got $6,500 as a licensing fee for family photographs that were used on NBC.
Garrison, however, said he resigned “due to the erratic behavior” of the Anthony family.
The Anthonys’ daughter, Casey, is in Orange County Jail awaiting trial on first-degree murder and other charges. Prosecutors say Casey Anthony killed Caylee, who has not been seen since June.
NeJame said Cindy and George Anthony were not aware of the payments, which NBC confirmed to the family after someone tipped NeJame to their existence. He said the family was shocked and devastated.
In an e-mail to WESH 2 News, NBC News said it "paid a nominal fee to license photos, which is standard practice."
"It turned out that we had information that Mr. Garrison had in fact been paid secretly behind George and Cindy Anthony's back," NeJame said.
Meanwhile, bounty hunter Leonard Padilla said he will return to Blanchard Park at 8 a.m. Thursday with diver to search for Caylee. A search on Monday came up empty.
Statement From Larry Garrison
"Due to the erratic behavior over the last several months exhibited by The Anthony family, Larry Garrison is resigning as their spokesperson. It is my opinion that others have manipulated them into situations, that would not dignify the family. I can no longer be part of that behavior. I wish them all the peace and resolution they so deserve. The truth always comes out in the end, and in this case "The truth is better than the spin."
Mark NeJame said the Anthonys let their California spokesman, Larry Garrison, go after finding out he got $6,500 as a licensing fee for family photographs that were used on NBC.
Garrison, however, said he resigned “due to the erratic behavior” of the Anthony family.
The Anthonys’ daughter, Casey, is in Orange County Jail awaiting trial on first-degree murder and other charges. Prosecutors say Casey Anthony killed Caylee, who has not been seen since June.
NeJame said Cindy and George Anthony were not aware of the payments, which NBC confirmed to the family after someone tipped NeJame to their existence. He said the family was shocked and devastated.
In an e-mail to WESH 2 News, NBC News said it "paid a nominal fee to license photos, which is standard practice."
"It turned out that we had information that Mr. Garrison had in fact been paid secretly behind George and Cindy Anthony's back," NeJame said.
Meanwhile, bounty hunter Leonard Padilla said he will return to Blanchard Park at 8 a.m. Thursday with diver to search for Caylee. A search on Monday came up empty.
Statement From Larry Garrison
"Due to the erratic behavior over the last several months exhibited by The Anthony family, Larry Garrison is resigning as their spokesperson. It is my opinion that others have manipulated them into situations, that would not dignify the family. I can no longer be part of that behavior. I wish them all the peace and resolution they so deserve. The truth always comes out in the end, and in this case "The truth is better than the spin."
Larry Garrison's Invoice to Dateline NBC
Copy of Larry Garrison's Invoice To Dateline NBC
Garrison sent this faxed invoice to Katherine Chan at Dateline NBC for fees (license) in the amount of $6,500. This invoice is for Dateline's use of pictures of Caylee and Casey Anthony and/or Anthony family members in the October 22, 2008, interview of the Anthony family.
Cindy and George Anthony fired Garrison after knowledge of this email went public. The Anthony's claim they have never been paid for any interview nor a license fee for photographs.

Thrifty Tuesday
Website of the day:
Printable Grocery Lists
Excellent site to organize your grocery lists as well as other shopping lists.
Also great for planning all your Christmas gift shopping.
Can be used for dinner menu planning as you can combine recipe and grocery lists.
Plan your Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner menus then add grocery list. Print out and have on hand while at the supermarket.
I enjoy using these weekly. I have found many uses for them. I love the custom made lists. The possibilities are endless. I love the pantry list, I print one out and post on the inside of my pantry door. Whenever I, or another member of the family finds there is something running low, it is added to the list.
I also have a "wish list" for snacks and such for the week that my girls can write their wants on.
Enjoy! Let me know what you think, and if you have any other ideas for use!

Public or Private?
There has been a lot of debate lately regarding quality of education as well as safety issues in our public school system.
My children have had the opportunity to experience each, public and private.
My oldest daughter was enrolled in private school starting with preschool until end of 1st grade. My youngest daughter, private school from preschool until beginning of Kindergarten. Both of my daughters had between 3 to 4 years each at the private school.
They are both now enrolled in public school . My oldest daughter is now in 8th grade. My youngest in 6th grade.
We are fortunate that our town offers both choices to our community. The only private school in the county is located in our town and is less than 3 miles from our home. The public junior high school for our district is located less than 2 miles from our home.
I have good experiences with each school. My youngest daughter does not recall much about her experience with the private school. My oldest daughter has a few memories, and has been recently reacquainted with some of her friends who are now in public school, as well.
Money for tuition would not afford me to be a stay at home mom, as I am now. However, if given the option, I would choose to have my daughters back in the private sector.
In regard to our public school, our district’s schools are / have been ranked in the top 100 of the nation. There are some families who drive a great distance to have their children attend our school. Therefore, the school zoning was put into place and enforced to control and prevent overcrowding. Our town is what is called a "sleeper" town, and is booming, due to location, and mostly, schools. Not only for choice of sector, but also for reputation and national/state scores.
I have been hearing of recent, an increase in homeschooling. No percentage yet, but I have found a relative amount of children being home schooled, as well as home schooled children being re-entered into public sector. I know there are a lot of determining factors, I feel however, the economy is the major factor at the moment, at least for my family.
Due to our public sector having such high accolades, I feel confident with my children’s education at this time. My choices for a re-enrollment into private school at this time would be faith based.
How do you feel about this topic. If money were not an option, would you prefer private, public, or home school?

Orange is your color, Casey ***UPDATED**10/15/08
UPDATED Wednesday, 10/15/08, in bold.
An impromptu post this evening.
Today has been somewhat of a bittersweet day for me. Illness and an entire day of legal goings on. Save for the illness. It would have been a great day.
Yesterday, it was leaked that searchers had found a Mickey Mouse dress that is supposedly like one that Caylee had worn. It is a size six. People over the Internet have been scouring photos looking for it.
By happenstance, I have found the pictures below, located on a local Orlando news website. Although it is Mickey Mouse dress, Caylee appears to be between 12-24 months old. It is hard to tell without an actual date. I am only going by my own knowledge of pictures of my children at that age. My youngest, during her first years, resembled Caylee somewhat.

Hauntingly eerie.
*************************************************
UPDATE:
On Wednesday, October 15, 2008, during a live interview with Meredith Vieira, Cindy Anthony presented, as evidence, the Mickey Mouse dress that appears in the photos above. The dress Cindy offered was clearly not a size 6. It was more of a toddler size. Such as the one in the pictures. I, myself, do believe the dress in the pictures and the one Cindy provided in the interview are one and the same.
From the pictures above, you can clearly tell that Caylee would not be of age to wear a children's size 6. Tim Miller, of Texas Equusearch, was dismayed and troubled that this evidence regarding the dress find was even leaked to the public. He did state however, that the dress was turned over to authorities and is being tested for DNA. He began to state his own theories regarding his doubt about the size and it belonging to Caylee. I believe Tim Miller is knowledgeable and has spent countless hours and his own money and resources to aid in finding missing persons. He is a victim himself, as his daughter, Laura, was abducted and killed in 1986. Her body was found 17 months later in a wooded area, along with 3 other women. To this day, Laura's abductor has not been identified.
If Cindy Anthony does not believe a dress of Caylee's was found, why not bring charges of defamation; false statements, as her own daughter was charged for; or tampering with an ongoing investigation and or evidence.
As far as the size of the dress, I am not positive that Caylee would wear a size 6. During my children's' 3 year old days, I know they wore clothes that ranged in size from 2T-4T, depending on height and weight. My youngest, which most resembled Caylee at this age, wore a 5T well into Kindergarten, due to her build and weight. This Mickey Mouse dress could have been a gift to Caylee. We all know how clothes given as gifts never fit right. They are either too small or too big. If the dress that was found does belong to Caylee, Caylee could have worn the dress as a nightgown, if it was a little large or roomy.
*********************************************************
The Grand Jury has returned a true bill on indictments for Casey Anthony. It took place at around 4pm, EST. The findings were sealed until the "person indicted was arrested". How much more mystery and circus atmosphere can this one family provide. At one point, Cindy Anthony, who was driving her monster daughter, Casey, home from Jose Baez's attorney's office, stopped underneath a freeway overpass, and Casey switched cars, entering a gray SUV, belonging to her "bail bondsman". We later learned undercover sheriff deputies were on Cindy's tail. Cindy claimed she was letting Casey turn herself into authorities at this strange location. The sheriff's department Cindy's statements. Aerial law enforcement lost track of the Anthony's SUV at one point during the travels. Undercover sheriff's deputies caught up to the gray SUV as it neared the Orlando International Airport. This is the location that searchers are centering on during their latest search. Was this Casey's last attempt to obstruct evidence? We may never know.
What I don't understand, why did Casey need to return home before turning herself into authorities? Was it not just Friday, Baez argued that Casey wanted out of her "home confinement", or at least have it lax, to "search for Caylee"? Maybe Casey needed a one last look at her home, one of the things she so took for granted the last year or so. My bets are on the evidence theory. Either way, it is just another chapter in this unending circus of tragedy.
One of my blogging friends suggested she sell those ridiculous white, oversize sunglasses on eBay to pay for her attorney.
Jose Baez, the attorney who does not have the 5 years experience, or any experience for that matter, to partake in a criminal case.
You can't make this stuff up.
The video surveillance of Casey's shopping sprees at Target are comparative to bad comedy. The video shows all of her purchases, including lingerie, a beret (I have yet to figure this one out), the infamous white, oversize sunglasses, and the most prized item of all, the blue "82" hoodie that she fashions in her first mug shot.
One or more items are missing, however. Not one thing for 3 year old Caylee. Can any mother say they have went shopping and not bought something for their child? Whether it a piece of gum, a book, something.
Can anyone be any more brazen? Yes, Casey can. She purchases all of her new wardrobe with her "best friend" Amy's check, and signs HER OWN NAME. Maybe at the time she was worried about forgery. It only took one time, though. Again, everything was so easy for Casey. No questions asked. At the other sprees, she began to forge Amy's signature. If you are going to do it, do it big. Seems to be Casey's motto.
Casey seems to have a lifetime of sociopathic behavior. Maybe if someone had just once questioned Casey's actions early on, instead of allowing her have her way, none of this would have happened.
During my blogging hiatus, while I had moved on to bigger and better things such as chemotherapy and radiation, I began to follow missing persons reports. I am sure you all know about precious Caylee Anthony.
The beautiful, 3 year old, little girl that went missing from her home, or I should say, the last time her grandparents saw her, was June 15, 2008. Father's Day for many. Little Caylee did not have a father that she knew of. Her grandfather, George Anthony, also known as "Pop-Pop", was supposedly the last known person to see her alive on August 16, 2008. This was a Monday afternoon, around 12:50pm est. I have my own theories about his testimony surrounding this day. On the same token, I believe George Anthony is the most "sane" of the Anthony clan. However, I do not take everything he says at face value. It is one thing to want to save your daughter, but what if your daughter is the callous monster that killed your granddaughter.
I know a lot of you know all the details by this time. I have an entire journal devoted just to this case and plan on publishing some of my theories and stories and thoughts from other bloggers I have met across the country.
Before my nursing career, my mother-in-law wanted to send me to law school. She wanted a lawyer in the family. I have always had a fascination with law and crime. You can imagine my favorite tv shows. I have two TiVos and they are full of Nancy Grace and anything pertaining to Caylee; TruTv Forensic Files, Dr. G.; Dateline; TruCrimes, etc.; and I love the new Discovery ID channel.
How do you feel about the Anthony case? Any theories or thoughts?
I would love to strike up good conversation/debate regarding the case.
Now back to the main reason for the post:
Let's take the time tonight, to reflect on sweet Caylee. That precious little girl who won our hearts. My her soul rest in peace. I pray her Casey wises up to the fact that her lies have run out and the law enforcement is and has done everything they can to put an end to her charade. Bless the law enforcement's family, I know it has been a strain on their families due to law enforcement family members working long, dedicated hours on this case all in the name of Caylee.
Thank you, Orlando Police Department and Orlando Sheriff's Department, Florida State Prosecutor's Office, Tim Miller of Texas Equusearch, and others that have worked so diligently on this case for nothing other than justice.
Everyone, please hug your children and loved ones close tonight, and once more for Caylee.
I hope you look good in orange, Casey, it's going to be your color.

Missing You
It has been six long years today since you left. Silently, in sleep. No warning. No prethought. After years of after-thoughts, if only's, what ifs, and "if I had...", it has taken me almost this long to realize and understand that no matter how many scenarios I replay in my mind, the outcome would have been the same.
Your girls are growing into beautiful young women. I do the absolute best I can. Albeit, I know I have done a wonderful job thus far. We are going through, middle school, new friends, boyfriends, band, soccer, and next year, High School.
You would be proud of them. Straight A's for both. Jr. Beta, Jr. Civitan, and other school clubs. They are well liked by their peers and their teachers. They are very good students and get along well with others. They strive for perfection, almost too much. They get that from the both of us.
They are finally handling your death a little better. I believe they have found a sense of peace. We know we will see you again at some time. We feel your love everyday and know you are around us. You are missed just as much today as the day you passed. I love you dearly and miss our talks and time spent together. I would be lying if I said it has gotten easier. Time does heal, but it does not take away the pain completely.
I am undergoing chemo again. Each treatment, I remember you and all the things you would do for me. Sit by my bedside, get my blankets, take off the blankets, get the pail and hold my hair back when I was sick. With family still hours away, most times I am only accompanied by the nurse on treatment days. My mother doesn't have much time anymore to make the appointments with me. I have become very independent, but sometimes, I long for someone to take care of me, as you did.
On this day, we send our love and hope you continue to watch over our lives and smile.
All our love,
Your wife and daughters

Menu Mondays
The ever changing and at times, scary, economy is affecting families across the nation. Mine included. In an attempt to restart the blog, I would like to hear how you are dealing with rising gas prices, rising food costs, and overall inflation.
I would love to encourage interactivity with the readers by implementing a few new daily topics.
The first of which, we will start today. I'd like to call it Menu Monday.
I hope to dedicate Mondays to getting feedback from readers on their favorite recipes and to help, if no one but myself, create weekly or nightly dinner menus. I will be posting along as well, my recipes and/or menu for the week.
Other daily topics I would like to set up would be budgeting, i.e.: grocery costs, how you implement your budget and what tricks you use to stay on track.
I will post upcoming topics and look forward to the feedback and interaction.

Changing Seasons
Hello again. A small update. Four months of intensive chemotherapy and radiation, I feel like writing again. Let me correct myself. I feel like blogging again. I have been writing the past few months. I have had my laptop with me during chemo, but I just haven't felt like blogging. I didn't want to share the pain, but at the same time, I was aching everyday for someone to share it with. Anyone. Someone. Save for a few fellow patients, family, and a handful of friends, I have not shared feelings with many people. Loneliness is dark. Pain is even darker. Self-pity is the darkest, and thankfully, I did not visit. My thoughts and feelings are tucked away in journals, on my hard drive, and a written back up.
Autumn is my favorite time of year. The changing of the leaves and the landscape. I love the magical beauty that precedes the death of the leaves. A bright orange pumpkin, fresh from the patch, carved into a spooky face or a child's vision of art, the flickering glow of a lighted candle inside. Hardy mums in shades of crimson, maze, and aubergine, just before the first frost sends them into despair. All of the beautiful colors of the season, at their peak, before they fade away, once again.
This season reminds me of my life at the moment. I feel as if my color faded a few months too early. However, now I can rest. Refresh and rebuild until the next change of season.

Casey Anthony Saga: 600+ Documents Released
Documents released today by the State Attorney's Office show Casey Anthony's conversations and text messages on the weeks prior to her arrest and the disappearance of her daughter, Caylee Marie.
The nearly 600 pages of interviews between detectives, family and friends, as well as hundreds of text messages from Anthony's cell phone, show that Anthony spent lots of time discussing relationship woes and planning parties -- with little mention of Caylee Marie -- as well as admitting to a family member that she was an unfit mother.
The file also shows the lies Anthony told friends and family about the smell of decomposition coming from her car and talk of jealousy stemming from her mother's affection toward Caylee.
Smell in the car
* Her friend Amy Huizenga said Cindy Anthony was worried when the tow company contacted her about the car that was hauled away from Amscot. The smell from the trunk was overpowering -- like something had died. The parents initially couldn't get it open because they didn't have the keys. When they did open it, Cindy Anthony feared the worse. " They were terrified it was either Casey or Caylee," Huizenga said. "Because they had not talked to either of them. Because of the smell."
* In late June, Anthony talked to Huizenga about the "horrible smell" in her car and she couldn't figure out the source. She said it smelled like something had died and the odor was coming from the engine. She told her friend that she thought her dad may have hit an animal when he borrowed her car. Days later, she told Huizenga that she found an animal "plastered" to the frame of her car.
* Anthony told her brother Lee Anthony that the smell came from a couple of squirrels that had crawled into the engine and died.
Jealousy between Casey Anthony and her mother, Cindy
* Anthony's friend, Brittany Schieber, told detectives there were jealousy issues between the mother and daughter. "Cindy ... told me that her and Casey were having issues because Casey was having a jealousy issue about the relationship between Caylee and her grandmother and she didn't like it."
Questions about Anthony's car and Caylee's room
* Schieber said Cindy told her about Casey's car being towed from the Amscot. Cindy said Caylee's baby doll was in her car seat and there was a bag of diapers in the back. That was odd because Caylee never leaves without her baby doll, Schieber said.
* Cindy also told Schieber that items were missing from Casey's room, but nothing of Caylee's was gone. "And Caylee's stuff was never moved. No shoes, no pajamas, no clothes, no dolls, no anything."
* Schieber said Cindy also said Casey was stealing from her.
Text messages
*Casey Anthony sent a text message to her friend Amy Huizenga on June 6 that read "proud momma." She sent it after telling Huizenga that Caylee Marie had used the bathroom for the first time.
*As the news of Caylee's disappearance and Casey Anthony's lies became public, her friends' text messages changed from friendly banter to feeling of betrayal. "Dude, don't lie or lose your kid and pretend it didn't happen. I have a lot in common with her too," Huizenga texted a friend. "We were really close for months. She fooled us all. You aren't crazy, she is."
*Anthony sent Huizenga dozens of messages about her relationship troubles, planning parties and nights out at bar, with little mention of Caylee Marie, except for a text message dated June 6, in which she tells her friend "Sorry. Proud momma" after her daughter, Caylee uses the bathroom for the first time.
Detectives interview Casey's most recent boyfriend Anthony Lazzaro.
* After July 5, Anthony stayed at Lazzaro's apartment full-time. On several occasions, in the middle of the night, Anthony would have cold sweats. "And I would ask her uh, why and she said that she would have nightmares... she was having a nightmare or something "
* One night in June, Anthony, Lazzaro and their friends went to a club. Afterward, they all went back to Lazzaro's, but he said Anthony had to leave because her mom wouldn't allow her to stay over.
* Lazzaro once took Anthony to her parents' home so she could pick up a gas can because she ran out of gas.
* Lazzaro picked Anthony up from the Amscot on Goldenrod Road, where she abandoned her vehicle. Anthony told him she ran out of gas and would take care of it later.
* On July 15, when Cindy Anthony and Amy Huizenga came to Lazzaro's apartment to find Casey, Lazzaro said there was a knock at the door and he said "Come in." "And there was Amy just standing there with a miserable face and we were, we were both confused," he said.
Anthony went outside, and about a half-hour later, she and Cindy came to the door, Casey stormed in and looked like she was in tears.
"Uhm, and her mom said, 'Get your things. Let, you're, you're coming with me.' And Casey said, 'No, I'm coming back.'"
Lazzaro said he had never met Casey's mother until that point, and so he said hello. Cindy Anthony responded " 'I hope you're rich because Casey's going to take all your money and leave you high and dry.'"
Investigators question one of Casey's ex-boyfriends Ricardo Morales.
* Morales told detectives about an online message Anthony sent him, possibly in April or May: " Casey was just uh, I guess kind of venting on how she could, she didn't feel that she can participate uhm, fully, or uhm, with her friends because she was a mother."
* Morales said he never met the nanny nor could he remember an occasion where Casey actually spoke to the nanny on the phone. He said Anthony said the nanny was named Zani, and said her actual name was Zenita.
* Morales told detectives about one night when Caylee and Casey were at his house and they all fell asleep in the same bed. When he woke up in the morning, Caylee was gone. "Casey told me that uhm, her mom had called during the night and wanted her to bring Caylee home."

Also, Casey is not accepting visits from her family because they are being recorded then obtained by the media who then in turn, airs the videos to the public. This is legal, however, under the Florida Sunshine Act.

In a police report filed by George Anthony on June 24, he said two gas cans were stolen from a shed on the side of their house, but Tuesday night he admitted to Fox News that he found out his had daughter stolen them on the same day.
above: copy of police report of stolen gas cans reported by George Anthony.

The following is the transcript from Greta Van Sustren's in-home interview with George and Cindy: (you can see the entire video, listed in the side bar of the blog)
George Anthony:
...That’s when I saw my daughter. I was getting ready to go to work, and the garage door goes open and my daughter comes in. This is about 2:25, 2:30 in the afternoon on the 24th. As she comes in the house, and I said, Hey, how’re you doing? And she says, Fine, Dad. I says, Well, what’s going on? And she says, Oh, I’m just stopping home for about 10 minutes, get some clothes. I go to go back to work. Where’s Caylee? She’s with Zanny. And I said, OK, when are you guys coming home? She says, Oh, we’ll be back home maybe late tonight or the next day.
I said, OK. Have you been talking to Mom? Oh, yes, I talk to Mom every day. I said, I know, but did you talk to Mom today? She sort of hesitated for a moment and she says, Yes. And she says, Oh, by the way, it’s a shame what happened in the shed. And I said…
CINDY ANTHONY: Yes, because (INAUDIBLE) ( I think Cindy says, 'because she called and told her about it' ..or something to that affect.)
GEORGE ANTHONY: And I said, Really? She says, yes. I said, Interesting. And I just said, Hey, by the way, I said, I’m getting ready to rotate your mom’s tires on her car. There’s a little metal wedge that fits underneath your tires so your car doesn't rock back and forth. And I said, Well, I’d like to have it, so in case you’re not here over the weekend, I’d like to be able to do it.
She was hesitant about letting me get in the car. And I said, Well, listen, I got an extra key. I’ll just go get it. Well, she was adamant about — about that.
VAN SUSTEREN: What, not letting you into the car?
GEORGE ANTHONY: Yes, didn’t want me to get into the car to get the stuff out. Dad, I’ll get it for you. Dad, I’ll get it out. I said, It’s no problem. I know where it’s at. I’ll get it, get it out and be done with it.
So as we’re walking out through the garage, she’s still telling me, Dad, I’ll get it. Give me a minute, I’ll get it. I said, Casey, I’m capable of reaching inside your car, and I got it. So — and she opened up the trunk of the car…
CINDY ANTHONY: The gas cans were there.
GEORGE ANTHONY: (INAUDIBLE) The gas cans there. She’s the one that took the gas cans.

- George reported the gas cans stolen to the police.
- George told Cindy about it .
- Cindy spoke with Casey, and told her about it.
- Casey went by the house -- Casey had began staying with Tony at this time, unbeknown to George and Cindy. They were under the assumption that she was in Tampa for a convention for her "job". Also, just prior to this date, Casey told Cindy that Zenaida had a car accident and had been admitted to Tampa General Hospital.
- Casey brought up the gas cans to George. Casey told George that she needed the gas cans because she had been travelling to and from Tampa General Hospital (to see Zanny) and needed the gas cans for the gas. George thought this ridiculous but brushed it off.
- George needed something out of the trunk of Casey’s car to fix a tire on Cindy’s car
- George found the gas cans in Casey’s trunk. According to released documents, Casey gave George the gas cans, saying "Here's your f'n gas cans." George stated this in his FBI Interview.
