Happy Happy Saturday…

Posted on by

…..is a day when you have no football.

This is because all the games are on Sunday this week. So I have been getting my “geek” on lately because I am LOVING my new laptop. See this is me and psycho kitty watching you,

Me & Crazy Cat

As my friend Iris says, “let me guess it has a video camera!” Heheheh, how can you tell? Ok I promise I will stop boring your with my laptop stories.

I want to share with you the sweetest picture I have seen this week. Not a political statement, but there has been words said about Palin having her child with her on the campaign trail. All I can say is a picture is worth a thousand words. She is a “what you see is what you get” kind of gal.

I Love My Readers Comments and Soon To Be In The Pink

excitedSorry for the lack of posting this week, I think I am anxiously awaiting my new laptop (which should arrive tomorrow).

Regular football season has ended, but there is not much rejoicing yet because we have three bowl games to go.  Why they have “bowl” games for PopWarner escapes this Mom, but what do I know =).  Then after the bowl games, they have a game where we travel to Jacksonville and the boys have the opportunity to meet some of the Jaguar players.  They are very excited about this, I am just waiting for it to be over.  I know I gave up the award for Mom of the Year, years ago.

On a more serious note, I want to thank those who commented on my previous post.  The news article really stuck a cord in me, I think it verified what I suspected to be true.  I just had never seen it as an official statistic.  One thing I know to be true, women between the ages of 40 to 64 are hurting.

These life changes that happen can sometimes be more than a person can bear.  On top of these life changes, we fall in the trap of believing the lies society tells us.  There is a woman I know, who recently lost a lot of weight and got certain enhancements.  The sad thing is, I know it will not replace the longing she has in wanting to be accepted.  I know she has struggled in her marriage, but these external changes are not the answer.  I am not against what she had done, I just know there are deeper issues that are not being dealt with.

I have so many thoughts on this issue but I won’t go into all of it right now, I am still “chewing” on this article.  But I think Debbie hit it on the head in the comment section when she said:

But I think the REAL problem is that many women do not have a personal relationship with God through Jesus. When you realize that you are a child of the Most High God and that He loves you and has a special plan for your life…it changes everything. Then when life doesn’t turn out the way you’d hoped, you know in your heart that this isn’t all there is. After all, this isn’t our home. We’re just passing through until we get to our eternal home.

Well next time I post I should be “in the pink.”  What should I install first?

Football Follies

I spent my Saturday staring at this:

First was my youngest game, which they won!

Some serious discussions

Good game honey.

I love cheerleaders, I believe every team needs them. What I don’t like

is when this is my only view because we are on a field with no stands.

We pause for a Gatorade break.

There much better. Now we have middle son’s game. Which by the way we won. This is him kicking off at the beginning of the game.

Here is middle son looking up at coach.

Sometimes he sits down on the job, just like at home.

Huh? What did you say coach?

We pause for a cool “artsy” picture as my husband calls them.

Oh good middle son back on the attack. Good game honey, you made two more field goals. (he has yet to miss this year =) says proud momma.)

Oh thirsty again? Here is another Gatorade break.

Now we have oldest son. Who won his game also (see a theme here?)

It began to rain, but that did not deter #80.

Yep that would be my baby on the ground.

The sun began to set on the day.

But all ended well, the temperature was BEAUTIFUL, and all three boys won!
