I love this picture...childhood, dog days of summer,imagination, adventures.

This foto reminds me of a Disney Movie. They were battling boys against the girls, I think Chloe was with them as well...she took the foto. (wouldn't want to leave her out) So, I will take this foto and enlarge it and hang it with all of the other thousands of memories hanging on our walls.

Go to candidcarrie and check out all of the other fabulous fotos!

Two wonderful Women...

I was thinking really hard today...I know it's hard to believe..hahaha seriously, about what to talk about, or share with you and I'm coming up short.

I was supposed to show you pictures of our vacation and the problem with that is, I don't have any really good pictures. :(

I'm not humorous like candidcarrie. The way she describes the most mundane things for example: counting money (in the privacy of her bedroom) or when her kids go back to school singing her song "My Kids Are Gone" song to the lyrics of "My boyfriends back". The list goes on and on. How does she come up with this stuff? She must have a million ideas in that head of hers. And her camping trips, she's brilliant I tell you! I know everyone that comes here has read her blog and if by a slim chance you haven't just click here . You better start from the beginning she's just too funny to miss even one post.

Another blogger who is a fascinating person and a brilliant writer is RBK's Realm. She is Originally from New Delhi, India. She's been in the US for twenty years and she calls it home now. She is a single mom and has a son who is in college.

When I first started reading her blog, I was and still am fascinated with her life. She talks about her arranged marriage, myths about India and so much more! I swear she is a walking encyclopedia. Please, please check her out and read from cover to cover. You won't be disappointed. Click here.

Thanks.

Friday Foto Finish Fiesta!!

30 YEAR CLASS REUNION!


Last weekend August 16, 2008, we had our reunion. I have to tell you I was nervous. I have seen some of my classmates throughout the years and at our 20 year. But, this is 30 years, think about it...most of you out there are around that age or younger! That's a long time ago. Anyway, I was nervous...let me back up and tell you...I leave out a lot of details when I post so, getting here was almost next to impossible. (I'll just leave it at that)

We have a celebrity in our class of 1978, and if you are up on Broadway and directors/choreographers, you'll know exactly who I'm talking about! The Tony Award winning...Jerry Mitchell!! Yes, it's true, I grew up with him...I even went to a movie with him in Middle School! How cool is that!

The reunion was awesome, I had a blast. They were mean and didn't put name tags on us...wanted to see if we could recognize each other or something. Some of the guys...had no clue who they were! Would of walked right on by, had I seen them on the street.

Another classmate had a band back in High School and he was there...jamming to "Smoke On The Water" He played it so much back then, silly me thought he wrote the song! Whatever!





Girlfriend, Bekki, (her husband)Dan and me, dude behind me, not a clue who he is, think he crashed the reunion.






Mary, Jerry, me, Bekki and Gail



We had a lot more people in the other room...when people send me pictures I'll show you some more great shots!



Go to Candid Carrie and see some great fotos!

The Truth and a lie--- The Truths

I ran my first Marathon in 2004 in Detroit...as you can see by the picture the time--my actual time was 3:52:46! Not too bad considering I had many injuries while training...for my age bracket I had to run it by 4 hours!



This is me over there on the horse! In 1977 I was 17 years old and I qualified for the World Championships. I went and got third in the world!

Concerning sky-diving...no way in a million years would I jump out of a plane. On the other hand my parents sky-dived all the time while I was growing up, as did my two brothers.

So unfortunately nobody won my little fun game!
