Friday "fun"

This was my fun for the day. I got on base and got about half way to where I work and I heard a noise followed by "boom boom boom boom boom" as I drove. I pulled over and didn't see what was wrong so I continued on to the office. When I got there I found the problem so after breifly entering the office I took off for the Toyota place since I was due for an oil change anyway. I had a book in the car so I relaxed and read for an hour while they removed the screw in the tire, plugged it up and changed the oil.

Sunday afternoon fun

My Gracie Girl is 'wide open' most of the time! We were having fun with her Sunday afternoon. That cat can jump and she'll run one direction and jump and turn the other direction while in the air. It is a hoot to watch. I did take a video of this but for some reason it won't upload - I keep getting error messages.

I finally did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I finally got my wii fitness age to come down a little. It is now 54 which isn't something to brag on really I guess since I'm 39 but it WAS 73 so I'm making progress. It is kinda hard though because it tests you on picking up spares in bowling, returning balls in tennis, and hitting a home run in baseball. I'm not really in to playing sports. The last time I bowled it was with "A" (who was 8) and she asked me if I wanted her to go tell them to put up the rails for me as well. Yes, it was THAT bad. Pathetic really. Never played baseball/softball/t-ball or tennis.


My wii fit age was 41 the last time I checked it so isn't too bad off.

Thoughtful

Some thoughtful person sent me a Valentine's Day card from the kitties. I am not exactly sure who did it since there was no return address or anything but I have a few suspects! I just wanted to say thanks to whoever thought to do that.

Worth checking out

I'm currently reading "Crazy love" by Francis Chan. I've just read thru the first chapter but I think it is going to be good. There is some info on the book at crazylovebook.com. Check it out and check out the youtube video below. Definitely something to think about.

Is it too much to ask????????????

...........................To be treated with DIGNITY AND RESPECT?????????????????

I must be getting a bit braver in my old age as I have found myself standing up for ME much quicker than I used to.

Are we cute or what???

These were taken in the summer of 1973 so I was probably a few months shy of 4, Janet (my cousin) was several months shy of being 5 and David (my brother)was 18-20 months.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Went to see Chitty Chitty Bang Bang with the girls yesterday. I really enjoyed it except for the periods of time where I was zoned out or not in the room due to a very low blood sugar. I had a granola bar with me but it didn't do any good. My friend had a blow pop with her and I ate that while they went to get me a coke during intermission. Of course the ushers would not let her bring it to me even though I'm sitting there ready to pass out! I got to the door and drank the coke and managed to get downstairs to the bathroom and check it and it was 59 at that time. I got another coke and a reese cup from the concession stand and sat downstairs for awhile until I felt better. Went back to the bathroom and checked it and it was up to 90 so I went back upstairs just as my friend was coming to check on me. That was a rough one. I don't remember feeling so rough in quite a long time as I did with this low. I had checked it before we went in to be seated and it was about 170 so I figured I would be fine thru the show. NOT. My WHOLE MOUTH was numb: tongue, lips, check........... I felt like I couldn't hardly talk because my tongue was numb and felt so thick.

The funny part of this was that my friends went to the bar to get my coke! They were walking in there with my friend's 8 year old and half way in the room it dawned on her that she was taking her child into the bar so she told the other friend to "GET HER OUT OF HERE". Then that friend while standing outside the door saw another friend that we knew was going to be there and told her that B was in there getting a drink!

Then on the way home we had another adventure. We had just dropped A off at her spend the night party and B got a wild hair which shocked S and a word we weren't expecting just slipped right out of her mouth. I think poor S thought we were about to have an accident and B was wondering if S said what she thought she said. You probably really had to be there but it was funny at the time - or at least we thought it was.
