- I had the fullest week EVER last week, with Kristin and the kids and the zoo and Fossil Rim and dinner at the Meskin restaurant and lunch at the Big Cup. I haven ‘t had that much fun during a work week in a long time.
- I have discovered that I have an uncanny talent at picking who Ms. Universe is going to be…second year in a row I picked the winner right off the bat. Ms. Venezuela won it…and I called it the second i saw her pretty yellow evening gown.
- I also picked this season’s American Idol wayyyyyy early in the contest.
- Furthermore, I will go on record to say that I am watching Nashville Star (shut up it’s a slow summer TV season and i am a slut for reality TV) and from the very first show I chose Gabe Garcia, Coffey, and my girl from Danworthington Gardens, TX, Melissa. I will say that it will come down to Melissa and Gabe and at this point, I can’t call it…they are both from Texas and they are both crazy talented.
- I discovered today that if I say “I’m going to mow,” it will rain a downpour.
- I have discovered that I have become very attached to one of the bloggers I read every day, even if she doesn’t post every day and I am concerned for her and pray for her. I have found, we are a lot alike and I feel what she is going through to my core…
- I realized today that school is going to start in…about a month. I will go on record that i am not really ready for my youngest daughter to be a senior in high school…that the Boy will be a 4th grader doesn’t worry me so much…but I won’t be sending him off to college at 17 either…
- the teacher is looking for an apartment and that is exciting…she also has started a little blog of her own at msdoe.wordpress.com. Read her…it is a little chronicle of what is it to be 23 and the one who is going to educate future Americans. she is ready for the daunting task. I am excited to see what she does with this gig. She’s ready, I think…and as the time comes closer, I think she will get more ready and stop thinking of herself as “the sub” and start thinking of herself as ‘the teacher.’ I couldn’t be more proud of her.
Okay, that’s enough for me for the night…I’ve had a full week…and tomorrow starts just another work week…and i should consider going to sleep instead of watching the rest of David Letterman and Craig Ferguson…but I’ll stay up….
