Just a few random thoughts. I may add to this later, Im not sure yet.

*Dont stick a bunch of Jelly Bellies in your mouth unless they are all the same color! EW

*English teachers are wonderful human beings. I never liked English in school. I never liked my English teachers. I like one now. Im still trying to figure out after 25+ years......Why did you make us chop up sentences and figure out what the nouns, pronouns and verbs were? All those arrows, slashes and circles around the sentence making a mess of things. I dont use that in everyday life. Im sure my blogs show why I was supposed to learn it, but...

*Toledo, OH has a free Art Museum. I will tell you about it on Monday.

*Car insurance is too damn expensive!!! My kids wonder why they dont have their license yet and I dont let them drive my car! Perhaps if they had to pay it, they would understand. I dont think Im a bad mom for not letting them drive around town. They are just starting life. They have a lot to learn and plenty of time to drive.

*I have come to the conclusion that my Gram will never remember who I am. Yesterday, I was Martha. Who the hell is Martha?? Then she laughs at me like shes pulled a funny. God, I hope she knows who I am. She does look good and she got the catheter. For almost 2 hours, she said she had to pee. lol

*I miss my cat George. Im not getting another one. Im not getting another one. Im not getting anot.....

*Birds like to shit on dark red cars! I know, its like a big target. Even more points if they make it in the sunroof. That hasnt happened to me.....YET.

*I have a 5 day vacation coming up in a few weeks. My Dale Jr is going to be in town for the race at Chicagoland Speedway. Yeah, did I mention that I have all access pit passes?? OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!! IM GONNA SEE DALE JR UP CLOSE!!! HOLY SHIT!!!! Im ok now. This feeling comes and goes. Ask Eric. Hes witnessed it.

*If you see a guy walking or hitching a ride with a black lab puppy, please let me know. Ive lost my brother and his dog Snowflake. He will really appreciate a ride to, um, where ever hes going.

*Plants die if you dont water them. DOH!

*Lynette is....my rock! A shiny, bright, brilliant, faceted Diamond. I love her with all my heart.

*My Blog writings are NOT crap. They are meaningful thoughts and feelings. Im sorry I said that yesterday.

Peace Out.....

Ok.....Im back for a quick second. Something amazing to me happened today after I posted. I have to share.....

I finally got off the computer and went to take a shower. Of course, just before I step in, the doorbell rings. My dog is barking and Im trying to get dressed to shut her up. Wondering who is at the door. Nobody visits me during the day.....hell anytime for that matter. I open the door and theres nobody there. What the hell. I look down and there is a large box in front of my door. My first thought, it was a head. lol. You never know! The box said perishable, and well, a head would perish.

I picked up the box thinking now it was a box of fruit. I dont know. I put it on the counter and opened it up. Inside the box was a styrofoam cooler. I take the lid off and there was bubble wrap. I move the bubble wrap and there are 48 candy bars and a large envelope.

The candy bars are Big Mo bars. Dale Earnhardt Jrs candy bar that came out earlier this year. Of course I had to buy them when they came out. I love him. I actually bought 4. Two to put away and two to open. They had a contest going on that I had to try to win. Grand Prize was a weekend in North Carolina with Dale Jr and going to some races. Pretty exciting.

I didnt win the Grand Prize, but I won 2nd. 100 lucky people in the U.S. won the candy bars. I was so close to winning the Grand Prize. Maybe next time.

Its a bunch of damn candy bars, but I think its cool. I never win anything and to be such a fan of his and win something was pretty awesome. My kids like the prize. They all dug in. Teenagers!

Im now done with my blog for the day....

Peace Out.......
