I have to be honest. I was dreading today. Not that kind of dread that is scary just the dread of getting going after, for me, two weeks. We did great this morning. I was awake before the TV came on. (I can just do that). Grayce hopped right up when I told her to and even Cydney was ready early. James Brian hopped up when I asked him to wake up. He is so sweet and so proud that he likes to put his own toothpaste on his brush now. We left before 7:30 so we went to CFA for breakfast. We even got to school before 8:00. There wasn't much traffic I suppose because the public school is out this week.
I went to Kohls to spend my Kohls cash my mom had gotten over Easter and then to Target. I tried on bathing suits! That was fun! I didn't get one yet. White skin is still white skin no matter how much or little of it there is and tan skin is soooo much prettier!
I picked up James Brian and we went to the car lot to visit for a few minutes. The only thing happening around there is pollen! Well actually they were a little busy and we have been blessed, the gas prices haven't affected us too much. I think with our life style today we are going to pay whatever it takes to keep going. You can buy a diesel pretty cheap these days!
Cyd and G had a good day at school. They won't admit it but I think they are probably a little tired. They are both in their rooms playing on the computer listening to music. I think Cydney enjoys her space. I know at 14 I would have loved to have space. But, thanks to my sister, who I love dearly, there wasn't much space! (another issue, huh!) Just teasing Lissy, I love you!
I picked up ribs for supper at Harveys. Mine were pretty good. Messy! So I am sure Brian won't want to eat them because they will be too messy. Cydney ending up eating some kind of noodles she had a craving for and I am sure G will eat ravoli. James Brian is playing with Jacob so he isn't hungry yet!
Well I was right about the pace picking up in a few days. We have 2 ball practices tomorrow, one on Wednesday, a practice game Thursday and a regular practice and then a practice game on Saturday. I wouldn't want to get bored!
I am looking forward to bedtime. All new Animal Cops-Houston. That is my favorite!
Someone left me a comment about Carl Edwards driving a Toyota. Well he was probably just questioning why the Toyota team was stealing from him! The funny thing is when he does good you don't hear a thing but when he doesn't it gets everyone talking. Even with Dale, Jr. Except it is the opposite, when he does good thats all you hear but when he doesn't no one brings him up. Drives me crazy. What about Carl running out of gas on the last lap. It a good thing he could coast to the line. I wondered why he wasn't racing too much at the end and then I realized he was probably close on fuel. Oh well he is still my favorite driver. I did deceide yesterday that Martin Truex, Jr was pretty easy on the eyes! I know you want to hear that Uncle Bobby!
Until next time.....

Crazy Weather--Only in Georgia
Where else in the world can it be 83 one day and 24 hours later it is 53? That is exactly what is happening here. It drives me crazy. I don't know how to dress. I don't know how to dress my children and I don't even know how to help Brian dress. Besides that everything is covered in yellow. The bradford pear trees are beautiful and the azaelas are blooming. It really is pretty out even though you don't know what to wear.
We went to church and Sunday school and then the children and I went to Waffle House for lunch. $12.00! We know how to live it up don't we. Brian didn't want to go. He does eat out all the time at work so he is happy just to have a sandwich.
Cydney is on her way home. It sure is quiet without the extra child but I am not willing to trade it for anything. I miss her and she might not admit it but she has missed us too! G had ball practice today. Brian took her and James Brian and I went for a minute but now we are at home where it is warm. By the way I had the air on yesterday and now I have the heat on. What is that about?
Nobody slept too good last night so hopefully tonight we can get settled early and sleep good. I noticed earlier it is a whole night of Animal Cops-Miami. Yoo, Hoo. I can watch TV all night. James Brian likes Family Guy and it also comes on tonight so I can coax him in bed with that!
We have to get ready for school in the morning. Yuck. I enjoy not having to get up so early!
That is about all for today. I am sure things will pick up next week or at least as far as activities with the children go. I put us on the list for Wednesday night supper so I am already looking forward to not cooking! We will pick up supper but not go to church because we have ball practice. Well we won't skip church to go to ball we just don't have preaching on Wed and my children don't enjoy the Wednesday after school program.
Don't think for a minute we are missing the race it is on every TV in the house! Go CARL!
Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars....

Almost Back to Normal!
Life is almost back to normal.
Cydney, Elizabeth and Margarett are still at the beach. It isn't as exciting yet as Cydney had hoped for. Too cold.
Grayce and James Brian both have a friend over. I have been doing as much around the house today as I feel safe. I don't like having to wait on someone to carry something around for me or vacuum or take out the trash. My sister had a point. It isn't the surgery that has been painful it is the recovery.
Last night we had ball practice and then went to dinner with the coach and his family. We always have fun with them. I am missing David and Ellie though.
I think daddy is coming over for dinner since he is so pitiful and can't fix him self anything to eat.
I think the children are probably ready for school to start back. I am not. I enjoy them being home but I know they get bored. But the sooner they go back to school the sooner they are out for the summer and then that is just another grade level gone. Children grow up too fast. It will be nice to get back into a routine. I noticed I really need to do something about the laundry room, which is our catch all, but I can't do anything about it unless I am by myself. James Brian thinks we need everything. I have to hide things in the trash or he will pull it back out. Today he made me get magazines back out because he was using them to do some kind of stunt with his trucks. Silly boy.
We have church in the morning. I really enjoy my Sunday School class. Then we have ball practice. Brian will go but I have to go for a minute and handle my secretarial duties. Then the race will be on. I am looking forward to that since there wasn't one last weekend. Nascar is really a family sport. They still pray before the race and don't race on Easter or Mothers Day.
Well until next time.....

I am Still Alive!
Well, I made it thru! I cannot believe I put my self thru such torture just to look better. I know in a few months I will be glad I did everything but I am just about to the feel sorry for myself point. I hate moving slow and I hate not been able to feel like I am in control of everything. Right now that is just how I am slow and out of control!
Brian is the best husband in the world. He doesn't care one way or the other what I do. Well I suppose if I wore my pajamas to the ball field with bedroom shoes and no makeup he might really have something to say.
The good thing that happened is my mom came down and took care of me for a few days. I hate that I had to have surgery to have her but under the circumstances I loved her being with me. You know your mom is really the only one who can help you do some things and it not be akward. Thanks mom, I love you.
The children have been wonderful and a ton of help. For a week I have sat in the recliner and not be able to do anything. I said I will never sit in that chair again. I still have to wear tape under my eyes and this wrap around my head that makes me look like I have a toothache. I wear it most of the time until I get to town and then I take if off! I don't mind wearing it at the ball field because those people know whats being going on.
This week has been spring break so we have just enjoyed doing nothing. Cydney, Elizabeth and Grandmomma are going to the beach in the AM. James Brian, Grayce and I are going to a birthday party and then maybe to the movies. I hate that I haven't taken the kids any where for spring break but I will make it up to them and I don't think they really care.
Ball practice is still going strong. The coach told me his missed his secretary. Only because I do all the busy work and it saves him from having to do it! We have a scrimmage game tonight. I will stay as long as I can. It is important to G that I be there and I want to but I don't know how long I can sit. Plus I have friends I need to show my new assets to.
Our friends the Johnsons have gone to St. Simons without us. The Orrs are leaving Panama City in the morning, so keep those families in your prayers for their safe return home.
Until next time....

Peaches to Beaches
Well we did it! The children and I had a yard sale this weekend. Along with everyone else in the State of Georgia I think. I have been saving pretty much every thing my children have ever had-toys, clothes, books, more toys. After 15 years that all adds up! I had started selling it on ebay but when this thing came up I decided we would try a yard sale. Well the only time I ever had a yard sale was before Cydney was born and I earned back $65.00 which was enough to buy myself a Mickey Mouse watch. This time I sold 5 times that much! Brian and I figure we got back about 10% on the dollar. Daddy thinks not that much. It was a little tough to let some things go but it also felt good knowing I was cleaning up. I was also going to buy myself something but I can never do that Brian and I will divide the money between the children and put it in there savings. It was after all there stuff to begin with. I know one thing it will be a long time before I do it again! Oh by the way I didn't have it saved at my house. It was all stored at the warehouse. These people that have yard sales every weekend, yuk, my time is too important for that.
That lasted all day Friday and today. Shannon, my friend from the dealership, sold with us today. She didn't sell as much as we did but she also didn't have as much as us. I did enjoy spending the day with her. We haven't gotten to do that in along time.
Cydney goofed off with Emily, Shannons daughter. Sam, Shannons son entertained James Brian. Grayce pushed Finn, Shannons baby 20 miles in the stroller. We all got sunburned. The wind blew like crazy and tipped our tent over. By the end of the day we had made some new friends, collected a good bit on money, caught up with some old friends and gotten rid of a bunch of junk!
Then we had dinner with the Johnsons at Cracker Barrell. I have lost my voice so I had to write everything down. Ellie can't read as fast as I write so that was sort of funny! It is impossible to yell at the children this minute so I just have to write BIG! Before Uncle Bobby or Uncle Steve has a rude comment, yes I am sure Brian is enjoying me having to be quiet.
I cannot believe how late it is already and we are just starting to watch home movies. There is a storm on the way so good faithful Brian will probably stay up all night and watch the weather. If he has his way all three children will be on a palet in the floor in our room.
I just want to finish the book I started 30 days ago.
I didn't have time to post Thursday and Friday but nothing exciting happened.
So until next time. Stay safe.....

Time Change is Working Out After All!
I guess having a better attitude about something you can't do anything about helps! Except that one clock on the VCR keeps messing me up.
James Brian and I went to Macon this afternoon. I picked him up early at school. That is such a treat for him. We ate lunch at steak-n-shake. For the last year or so I have tried not to drink too much coke or eat too many hamburgers. Today I crashed. I had the best coke and Double Cheeseburger I have ever had. I wanted to take my shoes off and get in the plate. I didn't even feel guilty later!
G had practice tonight. I stayed. Brian was going to stay but he agreed to take duty tomorrow since it starts at 7:15! So he and James Brian went back to the dealership to hang out!
Cydney stayed home but she didn't cook supper tonight! I didn't expect her to and I didn't ask her either. She did get her homework finished so that was a better surprise than cooking!
We are going to watch a few home movies before bed and then we will be ready to rock n roll tomorrow.

It was 1980 Something!
James Brian and I worked at the warehouse all day getting ready for the yard sale. I have filled a 20 foot trailer and a pull car trailer. Brian is about to have a break down afraid I am getting rid of something good. It has been packed up for years, if I needed it I couldn't find it anyway!
When we were at the building we found the old box of VCR tapes. I knew where they were but we just hadn't made a point of getting them. Now we are watching old movies. That is so fun. Everyone is so skinny and has so much dark hair! They were all in the late eighties and 90's. Brian flips thru the whole box, of about 100, and the one he pulled out first was the building of the dealership. He is such a romantic. He did pull our wedding out second so at least I am second in line to the dealership!
James Brian and Grayce both had ball practice. It was fine but I walked my self silly going back and forth trying to watch both children. Brian did make it to practice and walked back and forth for a minute and then he got to talking to his buddies and that was it for him.
Cydney had supper cooked when we got home! It was good, too! It was a real treat not to have to cook and even better to have it waiting on me when I walked in. Thanks again, baby.
Not much exciting today. Maybe something good tomorrow! Until then.....

I Have A Better Attitude, Today!
Please note that I said my attitude was better today. This could just be temporary!
At least I am trying. This morning Brian kept looking at the clock wondering why I was fussing for him to get up and then he realized as we were walking out the door that the time hadn't been changed yet! That was kind of funny. Mr. Never, Ever be late to work. He still made it on time.
Everyone was happy today because they got to have breakfast a CFA. We weren't even late to school. Not that we ever are, but I did think the time change would throw a kink in things.
I did the normal Monday morning stuff. After play school James Brian and I with daddy, Margarett and Brian had lunch at the Mexican place. I had chinese. I can only take so much mexican.
We picked up the girls and are going to try to get settled down early. James Brian looks like he is walking in his sleep. Brian has had a headache for two days so maybe I can talk him into getting some rest.
Cydney is going to a soccer game at the high school with her friend Katie. I told her she had at be home at 8:30. Then she ask could they go eat I told her if she ate before the game. The she asked how about 9:00. I said how about you just stay home. When I was 14 I would have never ever, ever been able to go with a friend like that. Kids these days. GRRRR!!
Well after my grocery trip to Walmart this morning there isn't anything to eat. Why is that? We don't have any activities this evening so it will be nice to do nothing! I am going to be forced to balance my checkbook sure as the world!
The day was beautiful today. Hopefully the rest of the week will be nice especially for my yard sale.
Oh, after the seatbelt thing it was my friend who left me an ugly comment. If I would have known it was Dana I would have just told her to stick it in her ear. I told her the reason I wrote it was because I thought some dummy with nothing to do was giving me a hard time. I love ya, girl.
Anyone who wants to comment on any post can do so by clicking on comments under the post. I have it set so you don't have to be a member just make sure you put your name says so I know who it is. Also remember anyone can read your comment. Also, please don't be mean to me it hurts my feelings. Well, not really I don't care. I will just post some rude comment about you!
One more thing I remembered. Brian didn't really make me have supper at the waffle house for our anniversary. We went to Mexican with our friends and G's coach, Robert and Pam and their children. Isn't that funny. One day the children will be gone and we can have a nice romantic dinner at the waffle house!
Why is the word abbreviation so long?
Until next time.....

Did I Mention I HATE TIME CHANGE??
Maybe I should have a better attitude, huh? I have tried. I have reset almost all the clocks in the house, I used to not even do that for a couple of days. I didn't sleep good thinking I was going to have to get up early. Well guess what... I overslept. So we all, well not Brian, but the children and I are heathens again this week. That makes three Sundays in a row that we have missed church. I don't think I have missed three Sundays in a row my whole entire life. Not that I believe going to church gets you into heaven but I do know I need to be fed!
G had practice today. Brian took her. I went just for a minute to handle secretarial duties. Cydney rode the 4 wheeler awhile and James Brian played with Jacob in between watching the race. Carl didn't win today.
Yesterday we worked in the house all day. Well this morning when I got up I realized we didn't do as much as I remembered doing. I hate that. So tomorrow when everyone goes off to school I will be cleaning house I guess. Great.
No time for anything else. Brian says he is working in the yard Thursday. Well he doesn't know it yet but he will have to help me load the stuff in the trailer for the yard sale because I haven't gotten to it yet.
Until next time.....

I Hate Time Change
I wonder if I mention that every single day anything will change. Probably Not.
It snowed for a minute in Perry today. I wasn't sure that is what it was it kind of looked like styrofoam. I had to call someone to see if I was hallucinating!
Grayce and I went to Target early this morning to get things for James Brian's Easter Party. I am not one to wait until the last minute. If I have something to do I want to be prepared! After Target they helped me clean house. Everything around here looks really good and smells good too! Only it won't stay that way.
Then my Aunt Judy and Uncle Mickey from Athens came to test drive a car. We got to eat supper with them and spend some quality time. That was nice. I miss them and should see them more often. When I was a little girl I spent a lot of time with them. We talked about that some tonight. I was their only niece so they spoiled me. I love you Judy and Mickey.
After supper they had to go home and the girls and I went to the mall. We mostly bought shoes, another issue I have. We stayed until the mall closed which is unusual because the girls aren't usually at the mall together! We had fun and everyone was real sweet. The mall is really crowded on Saturday night. I will remember that when Cydney wants to go with her friends.
Brian and James Brian went to the race in Atlanta. They had some much fun. They were in a suite so they were warm and had plenty of food all day. James Brian eats all the time these days. Brian didn't know when I said he eats all the time that I meant he ate all the time! They got to see Jason and all his buddies. All the spotters tried to quiz James Brian on his NASCAR knowledge. He is too smart for that! He knew just about everything. He even said his favorite driver was Carl Edwards, good answer, since Carls spotter was asking the questions.
Now it is time for bed with the dread hanging over my head that time is changing tonight. Did I mention I hate that!
He who laughs last, thinks slowest.

Seatbelt Update!
Thank you to everyone who has emailed me or commented on my selfishness to let my sleepy five year old lay down in the back seat unbuckled.
I personally didn't and still don't think it was "selfish" a little irresponsible yes but selfish no.
I do make my children wear their seatbelt 99.9% of the time. I am not obsessive about. My sister is and always has been. That is a subject we have agreed to disagree on.
Occasionally I let them nap in the back seat without a seat belt. Not that big of a deal. I also let the 10 year old and 14 year old drive the car. We also eat raw hotdogs and cookie dough and lick the spoon with raw cake batter on it! Ohhhhh! I even let them ride the 4 wheeler down the street, with a helmet, to their friends house.
I don't intend to get into a screaming match with someone I don't even know. I care about my sisters opinion but that is just what is it, an opinion. The persons advice I do listen to is my husbands and that is the only thought I care to hear.
So, I am not 100% perfect. There is one thing I am damn sure of and that is I am a GREAT mom first, a Great friend second!

HAPPY ANNIVERSAY!
Today makes 21 years we have been married! My sister reminded me I have been a Bearden as long as I was a Morris. Brian just ask me did I want to go to the Waffle House for our anniversary, isn't that romantic!
We are on our way to ball practice. Just like I said earlier in the week. It is raining on my night!
Our school has grandparents day. It is the production where the K-4 thru 4th grade put on a big show for the grandparents. I have waited years to have a year off from that thing. I love to watch my children but I hate to watch other peoples and this is the first year I haven't had a child in 8 years. Well dad gummit if they didn't ask me to volunteer to work at the book fair during grandparents day so I was at school all day! A girl cannot get a break!
Cyd had lunch with her friends and G had lunch with hers. I had to take JB to Red Lobster so he could see the strabs (crabs=lobster), I had a gift card.
Back last summer we were in a drought. This month we are in the middle of a monsoon. Hopefully it will be pretty tomorrow.
Well it sounds like a boring day today. Maybe there will be some excitement tomorrow........
Shut up voices or I will poke you with a Q-Tip again!

I am the Favorite Granddaughter, Again!
It has taken awhile to earn it back but I think I did today! Brian, on his day off, had to go to the car sale at Red Oak, south of Atlanta. James Brian and I rode with him, dropped him off and then went to my grandmothers. She has been sick and in the hospital so my mom has been having daughter duty. She has been staying with granddaddy at night and cooking for him. Today I went. I picked a great day to go because my mom and aunts had already cleaned the house and did the laundry. I timed it just perfect! I did get to buy her lunch and also picked up a bucket of chicken for supper. So I earned enough brownie points to put me at the top of the list. Or at least until my sister goes this weekend and knocks me right off again!
Brian didn't sell any cars so he had a ride back. Right in the middle of Atlanta I decided to have a panic attack which I partly brought on myself. I usually drive in the HOV lane. I usually have passengers with me. Well today I had James Brian and he was asleep in the back seat, unbuckled. So I panicked thinking I was going to get pulled over for only being one person and then they would see he didn't have on a seat belt. After I passed all the slow cars I did get back in the next lane. I was driving an Edge, which is a great car, but not as big as my Expedition and traffic was terrible and James Brian was still asleep in the back seat unbuckled. (Boy am I gonna hear it from my sister) and I just knew that big truck was going to slam us. I only slammed on the brakes once and he rolled in the floor and didn't even wake up! He just got back up in the seat. Then I was laughing so hard I couldn't drive. I got thru it and hopefully will never have to drive anything besides a military issued tank thru downtown Atlanta again!
Uncle Michael picked the girls up at school in the Roush Mustang. Apparently that is the new cool car. Whatever, I still want that tank.
Just so everyone knows. I HATE TIME CHANGE! I have real issues with swapping back and forth. I don't know why someone can't just make a decision and leave it. If you are a farmer adjust. If you work construction, work around it. It makes me crazy.
Well after typing all this and rereading it, it sounds like I have a few issues doesn't it. Well maybe I do.
I hear Grayce and James Brian in the kitchen. Come to think of it that is another issue. I hope they are not making a mess. Cydney is her room listening to some terrible music, another issue. The worst I ever listened to was Prince, which daddy took away, could be an issue. Maybe I can sign my self into one of those counseling things at some fancy spa somewhere!
Brian and James Brian are going to the race Saturday. The girls and I are going to load the trailer for the Peaches to Beaches yard sale. Some Yard sale on the Golden Isle Parkway that stretches all the way across Georgia. Hopefully I can get rid of all the stuff in the storage building and have a good down payment for the plastic surgery I want to have.
Oh, in case anyone ever wonders. The encyclopedia does say Humpty Dumpty was an egg. Thanks to Brians Uncle Steve who I suggested get a job!
I remembered something else. I drove by the airport today. I watched airplanes takeoff and fly and not one time did I wonder why you don't love me anymore! It was a good day!
No matter how much you wiggle and dance you still get tee tee on your underpants!

Nothing to Report Today
This is probably as of boring day as we have had in a while.
No softball. No Commercials. No Nothing.
Cydney is babysitting. Dropped her off after school. She sits for the same lady every week. It gives her enough money to buy songs for her ipod. Whatever. I used my babysitting money to buy Prince pins to put on my jacket!
Grayce has a field trip tomorrow so she doesn't have to finish her homework tonight. She is going to the Georgia Aquarium to some learning center and they didn't need adult chaperones. That is fine with me. I hate a field trip.
Supper is ready and I am just sitting here. I dropped my book in the bathtub so now I have to wait for it to dry out before I can read it!
Brian had been supenaed, I can't spell it from the public defender over that stolen car. First, I am angry that the tax payers are paying a public defender to try and help these stupid people out when everyone knows they stole the car. Second, I tried to get him out of it. Usually I am pretty good at getting myself and others out of stuff but in this case they said if we didn't go the case would be dismissed. So Brian went and then the detective on the case had a car wreck yesterday and they ended up postponing the hearing. AIN'T that some crap!
James Brian is having a friend over tomorrow. Man, I don't have to play cars all day, shucks!
Brian is at work trying to show someone how to work the DVD player in an Expedition. I don't know. I told him I would put James Brian on the line.
I guess I had more to tell than I remembered. Hmmmm.
Why isn't the number 11 pronounce onetyone?

Me and My Blog
At least that is what Cydney says. "You and Your Blog"...
Well I got another email that says they are enjoying it so I will just keep blogging. Or until I find something better to do. Thanks Uncle Steve!
I found the picture of G from the monster jam. I didn't think I left her out!
The girls did a TV commercial after school today. They pretend to hate it until they hear themselves on the tv and go running! We still can't get James Brian to say anything. But we will just keep asking him.
I found the den floor again this morning. That is always nice. I feel like calling Brian and saying come home quick to see the den clean because by the time he gets home it has bookbags and homework scattered all over again.
Ball practice tonight. Brian gets the duty. I will have to take duty another night this week. Mine will end up on the night it is or has been raining. How does he do that?
Where is the nursery rhyme does he says humpty dumpty is an egg?

SOFTBALL, Here We Go!
Softball is going in full swing! Did I say I missed it? Brian is a big help. We both went to practice because I am the "team mom" and I had secretarial duties to take care of! Brian and JB pitched a while and then when he was ready we went home. Brian and G came home 3 1/2 hours later. I asked him was he already practicing for the All Stars! Grayce wanted to pitch and hit a little extra. 2 hours extra. I don't think I ever liked anything that much. She has practice tomorrow at 7:15 but as bad as it sounds I will take her and Brian will come when he gets off work. I am sure Cydney will stay at home with James Brian.
We were heathens today. The children and I skipped church. Brian went, as always but I was lazy. That is the only way to explain it. Plain ole lazy! The worst part is my sister has the flu and she managed to get to church. I should be ashamed of myself.
Cydney got her room clean. I was surprised to find she has carpet in her room! I swear in the mornings she pulls every piece of clothing out and tries it on. I am glad I am passed that stage in life.
It is race day! We are loving track pass. I posted a picture of James Brian watching and listening. I guess I am too old to fuss with him over who gets to listen to their favorite driver!
Why are softballs hard?

THURSDAY, FRIDAY AND SATURDAY
Good Grief time flies when you are having fun! And we are!
Thursday-James Brian finally had baseball practice. He did really good. He was able to hit a coach pitch ball and run the bases. He loved it. He can run really fast with his new baseball man shoes! Grayce finally has confirmation of her team. The team we practiced with the night before got split up again. But we will have a good team and we do have fun! I get to be team mom, which is a good name for coach's secretary and lost glove finder. It is funny how you develop a love for most of those girls.
Friday-Grayce had batting practice with her new team. It wasn't as cold. I had to go to a memorial service for someones mom at the car lot so I had to push all my children off on someone else. I did make it in time to get G from practice. Cydney was sweet and kept James Brian. She got to order a domino's pizza by herself. Well her friend Elizabeth spent the night. I like Elizabeth. She isn't wild and doesn't like to try new things. That is something good to have in a daughters friend. Plus her mom would kill her!
Saturday--Grayce, James Brian our friend Caroline and me went to the MONSTER JAM in Macon. Brian is saving his Saturday off for next week to go to the race in Atlanta. It was fun but loud and smoky. I worried about JB's asthma but I knew 911 was only a call away. We actually were close to the door so we could have gotten out quick. Bigfoot wasn't there. James Brian ask for little foot or small foot. I don't know that they have those. I will have to check that out! Brian is working late. He caught a customer at closing time. It makes him feel good to work a deal all the way thru. He is the best at what he does and I am proud of him. G stayed with him to finish up her spanish project. I will be glad when that is over. I finally got all the cleats swapped and the others returned. They ended up with Under Armour. That is supposed to be THE new shoe.....
I bought a new Janet Evanovich book today so I am going to read.
If the professor on Gilligans Island can make a clock out of a coconut, why couldn't he fix the hole in the boat??
