I Always Remember...

I always remember it was a Tuesday.  I don't know why.  Maybe it was because Kristin was in preschool and I was getting her ready.  Maybe it was because at the time, my husband was stationed at A school in Northern CA, and he mostly worked M-F and hardly no weekends as he was an instructor.  Maybe it was because I had the news on as I always did during the week.  I don't know why, but I always remember it was a Tuesday.  You can google it to test me.  I did, because I thought:  that is weird.  That can't be right.  It is.  I remember it, because it is etched not only in my brain and on my heart, but it is forever in my soul.

Today I posted this on my FB:

As we are scrambling today, to get from place to place, let us pause for a moment and remember those who scrambled for their very lives. And for the brave men and women who sacrificed their own lives as they came together as one united front to end the destruction that was this awful day. Remember all of them.

And I changed my profile pic for the day....to

Because he stands for "Truth, justice and the American Way."  And we need that symbol today and everyday.

I'll vouch for you that it was a Tuesday. I didn't have class until 11am that morning. It was a Agriculture Leadership class. I almost didn't go but I pulled myself away from the tv long enough to go. We talked about it. In fact I think we may have even written a paper. I'll have to look for that paper.

I did not remember it was a Tuesday, but yes I don't think any of us will forget that day. I just wish people remembered the pride and unity that we all felt after it.

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

Image
That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters. Why do they give such ch
