Flaming June's Love

Riding in the car today and had a hankering for a lil bit o'country. (That NEVER HAPPENS) I heard this tune pop on. and man I bawled my eyes out for a good ten minutes. I think sometimes life just turns a few degrees to one side or the other and it just never gets back on track. I think my Dads death just set me off my track and I have never gotten back on. Remember as a kid the cars that ran on tracks with a remote and it could go faster or slower with your controller? If the car was off just a lil bit it would run but, rattle, skip and sputter along the track like it just wasnt wanting to go anywhere? well I feel like that sometimes. I used this analogy before but it is so appropriate, A stripped screw. I dig in I push hard and just never seem to catch anything solid. Had some news today from Andys work and it looks like he wont be with this company past July. Economy is hitting and I guess this house is about to feel that crunch too. I for some reason am not too wor...

Pushin the buttons tonight and Andy says to check back another channel. There he was in his sweaty glory. Loudin Swain. Matthew Modine. The hottest wrestler in HS History I didnt have a vcr back in the day so seeing movie after the theater was unheard of. The music the memories of HS. The memories of my brothers wrestlin in our living room. The whole thing. If you havent partaken in a long time give Loudin Swain another visit.

One day a week or so ago Allie and I were riding bikes with Jack along the dike and I commented on how beautiful our lil town was. There is a cozy feel to the place we live and everyone seems... sooo.... happy, normal, unaffected. We were riding along the river with kids playin soccer in the new fields, parents cooking hotdogs and snacks under tents in the parking lot. Kids rolling in grass and bicycles, rollerskates and all americanism. As we rode along we chatted about the cematary below us and people walking along The Avenue. We have built the only new constructioni in this little town in many years. If I talk to anyone they want to know where you live in town. I tell them the new blue house and EVERYONE KNOWS OF IT>. This is not to brag just to convey the smallness of the town. Strangers love the windows, the flowers out front, etc. Jack and I went tot he opening of the twon pool yesterday. Yup a town pool, small sweet and in the middle of the park. I took pics from our...

OK herer is the week in a nut shell. Andy had his cath done on Friday and he is fine. No blockages and a healthy heart. Now that is Good in THE REAL WORLD!!!! BUT not here in Suziland. Why ytou may ask well that was something that I was hoping would keep him out of Iraq. Blockages a few bypasses I can handle. Iraq for 18 months I am not feeling!!!! But really I would be able to handle Iraq but I really dont want to. So my huSbands heart is in perfect working order and has a few pounds to lose and heart anyway is great. AWESOME. Allie is now in MEXICO, YUP MEXICO. Her friend Danielle had an extra ticket on her family vacation and her fam asked Allie to come along, Happy... beyond words. MOM jealous, envious and did her best to fit in the bag. Worried not really I dont know why but I feel safe about it. I would have a bad feeling I think. She called this am to let me know they were heading for some awesome coffee then straight to the [pool. They are at a resort so not reall...
