Who Says White Boys Can't Jump?

I was just going through the online galleries for our school and found these pix of Bubba. I had to laugh... maybe I should put a brick on his head? :)

3rd Track Meet...

Man - this boy is doing GREAT! At this meet he finally got all four GOLD METALS! YAY! :D He got a gold in the 75 meter hurdles, the 200 meter hurdles, the 100 meter dash and the 4x400 relay! I keep telling him not to expect to do so well at every meet - there are kids out there faster than him! But, if he keeps doing this good I may have to eat my words! x) LOL

I love my water bottles! :)

I just bought myself a new water bottle from reusablebags.com and I LOVE it! :) Here is the one I got -

I actually have the purple "Rise Above Plastic" one. :)

The ones I have had before were more like sports bottle tops - this one is a screw off and I really like that better. Bubba likes the sports bottle ones to take fishing - so he can have my old ones. I did buy him a couple of new ones too - but these had better not go fishing!! Here they are -

Funny thing is - in this image they look really short and fat... really they are tall and just a little bigger around than a pop can.

Also - to further help our bottled water drinking family go a little more green - I have bought a water filtration pitcher. I really like it. And I've already noticed I drink more water now - and I'm not purchasing as many bottled waters since I can just take my filtered water with me! YAY!

Good News Is....

We have water again... Bad news is - we can't drink it! I need to find out if one of those purify pitchers would make it OK to drink... but I don't think that is what those are really made for... Oh well! At least I can take a bath again!! :)

No Water?

One of the MAIN water mains broke up town today! The ENTIRE town is out of water! They have to bring someone in to fix it... this could really suck...

Second Track Meet

Well - yesterday was the second track meet of the season. Bubba did pretty good again. :) He got a gold in the 75 meter hurdles, a silver in the 100 meter dash, a silver in the 200 meter dash and a silver in the 4x400 relay... again - not too bad! It was a pretty big meet too - 11 schools.

PLEASE DO THIS 'FREE' GOOD DEED - Animal Rescue

Hi, all you animal lovers/supporters: This is pretty simple... Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Animal Rescue Site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it's website daily to meet their quota of getting free food donated every day to abused and neglected animals.

It takes less than a minute (How about 20 seconds) to go to their site and click on the purple box 'fund food for animals' for free. This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate food to abandoned/neglected animals in exchange for advertising.
Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know.

Me? An Old Fashion Hooker?

I guess you could say that I am! I have been convinced to be a saloon girl at the next several Opera House plays and at the Chisholm Trail Festival held here in town! I still need to put my dress together - but at least I have my dress! I think it will be fun... or - I hope it will be! :) It is not often you can wear a short puffy dress with lots of big lace, fish net hose, and feathers in your hair and get away with it! HA! I will post a pic of me in my dress as soon as I have it done... :D

Mock Wreck...

I helped with a mock wreck to show the effects of drunk driving on Thursday... I think it turned out really well! The fire dept actually cut our "death" out of the car. Hopefully we made an impact with at least ONE kid... Here some pix of them cutting him out...

First Track Meet

Well - Bubba did pretty good at the first track meet of the year. A gold in the hurdles, a gold in the 100 meter dash, a gold in the 4x400 relay and a silver in the 200 meter dash. Hopefully he can keep this up! :)
