Vacation

I am on vacation this week, so I will be absent from Blogger unless something really cool happens.

See y'all later!

Better Day

Thanks for the prayers. PTL, I feel much better today. Hopefully today will go by super-fast. It's my late day, so I don't leave work until 6, then I have to drive out to the country to pick up Caleb at Karen's house, so I don't usually get home on Wed until after 8. Come to think of it, that's not really different than any other day when Caleb has football, so I have no clue why I am complaining.

Enough with the rambling.

Anger

I am so angry right now. My doctor has done something - uuhh! I can't even tell you how angry I am at him! He hardly ever upsets me but this takes the cake. I am never this mad. I don't even know what to do with this feeling. I went to my charge nurse and vented in the hope that it would alleviate my anger but I am just so ticked! I just want to scream!

I need to pray. Y'all pray, too. I do not like feeling this way.

Sunday

I slept so late today. I never get to do that, so it was nice.

Caleb's football team had their fifth consecutive shutout yesterday! It was awesome! Bordeaux was, by far, the toughest team we have played yet. We were only up by 7 at halftime, but we ended up winning 19-0. Our toughest games are coming up, Mt. Juliet, Smyrna, and Franklin. Go Mustangs!

Check out the video of the Mustangs Victory Tunnel - Caleb is #22.

I had to take my mom to the ER last night. I thought she was having a heart attack. PTL - she's fine! They said it was musculo-skeletal (or skeletor, as I kept trying to say last night). Karen and I are very blessed to work in the medical field. She called the cardiologist she works for on the way to the ER and he was on standby just in case. We were in and out within 2 hours, and because Karen knew the ER clerk, Earl, he made everyone aware that she is Dr. Ripley's personal assistant, so I think they were extra-efficient. The ER doctor took the time to call Dr. Ripley to let him know that she thought mom was OK to go, and he agreed. Thank you, Lord!

See y'all later!

My Neck Hurts

So I woke up Saturday morning and my neck hurt so badly that I could hardly turn my head. I don't know what I was doing in my sleep, but my neck was killing me. It's Tuesday now and it still is not completely resolved. Now it's not so much painful as annoying.

Caleb's football team beat the Old Hickory Bulldogs on Saturday 31-0. Another shutout! In the second half the refs asked us not to run to the outside, just up the middle, and they told us they were not going to stop the clock because they just wanted to get the game finished. Caleb had four or five good tackles. The other team almost scored on us twice, and our defense held them on the 2 yard line to keep them from scoring. I felt a little sorry for the Bulldogs, but we have a record to uphold. We have outscored our opponents 120-0 in the last four games. Go Mustangs! If only my Vols could do that... or the Titans. I have a sunburn on my left side from sitting out and watching the Titans blow it against the Colts.

So I told Caleb that if he did well, I would buy him some Heelys. He has been begging for them for over a year, but they are $80 and I am just not going to pay that for shoes even if they do have wheels, but when we went to Dick's the night before the game, the sales guy told us they were going to be on sale for $29.99 on Saturday. So Caleb got Heelys. He has almost busted his face several times, but he is getting the hang of it.

I took Caleb to see WWE Raw live last night. It was a good show. We got to sit on the floor level, but Caleb had trouble seeing because people were standing up and holding up signs so I ended up holding him up most of the night. John Cena and Triple H were there, so he was excited.

Nothing much going on today. See y'all later.

Sorry, It's been a while...

Ok, so Caleb's football team is 3-0 and no one has even scored on us yet. Our defense is so solid. We played Brentwood this weekend and they were sore losers! Their coach took them off the field with 2:00 left to play in the game because he was upset that he got two personal fouls and the refs told him he had to leave. He was being really ugly to the officials and after two warnings he was told to leave and didn't, so they tossed him, only he didn't want to leave, so he forfeited. That's a great lesson to teach your kids, huh? What a jerk. Just because you are losing 25-0 doesn't mean you shouldn't stick it out. Then their coach taunted our coach saying that we should come to Brentwood and play, because their field is greener and wider. Our coach told him that a wider field would just give our running backs more room to move! I hope we get to play them again at their field in the playoffs. We'll whoop them then, too.

I went to church on Saturday night this past weekend. I really liked it. Pastor says that if we come to church on Saturday night, he will give us a yard sign that says, "I go to Saturday night service at World Outreach," so peole don't think we are pagans when we are seen washing our cars and such on Sunday morning.

I think my cousin Amy is moving in this week. She's fun and she will be cool to have around. Also, she may be getting a job at Kirkland's, so yay for the discount. Sara recently quit her job at the Pomegranate (did I spell it right, Say?), so no more discount Vera Bradley. I am a VB junkie. I just love her bags! I am currently in love with her new red and white checked saddle bag matching newsie hat. I am going to go to the Peddler and see if they have it. It will be so cute for fall.

Gotta run, chickies!
