This is Cool !

A week from this Sunday, at three minutes and four seconds after 2:00 a.m. , the date and time will be 02:03:04;05/06/07. According to people who sit around and figure those things out, that will never happen again. I believe them because I am certainly not going to go to the trouble of trying to prove them wrong !

Beautiful Smile !

This is my granddaughter without her braces ! She just got them off today. It was a happy day for her !

Just Doesn't Get Much Better !

Here are some things that happened to me this weekend :

My son, son-in-law, and granddaughter went to the A Day game in Tuscaloosa (along with about 93,000 others) to see their beloved TIDE and they had a blast !

My daughter and son-in-law traveled to Kentucky to visit friends and went to their first horse race. They also had a blast !

My granddaughter participated in a music competition at Chadek Music Conservatory in Chattanooga and did extremely well. She is also getting her braces off today.

My grandson came and spent over three hours at our house just visiting . His high school golf team played in three tournaments this week and came in 1st, 1st, and 2nd.

I took a meal to an extended family member who was recovering from surgery and took another extended family member on an outing to DeSoto State Park.

I had dinner with some favorite in-laws from Heflin, Alabama.

The weather was extremely beautiful and I sat in the yard for a while and watched the birds.

Thank Goodness !!!

Sanjaya is gone !! We won't have to be subjected to his talentless attempt at singing anymore on AI. Since I picked Lakisha to win, I'm pretty sure I won't be taking home the pot of money because she is not measuring up to the high standard she set the first week when she sang the Jennifer Hudson song from "Dreamgirls" which prompted Simon to tell the other contestants to book their tickets home.

It's strange how things change on the show. I was totally surprised that Blake was in the bottom three. I guess the unpredictability of it is what keeps millions of us tuning in each week to see what happens.

This is Gross !

A zoo keeper had his arm bitten off by a crocodile. Fortunately, the arm was reattached but not before a photographer snapped this prize pic !

Extraordinary Snow Ball Bush

I took this picture yesterday. This is located in downtown Fort Payne close to the court house. I believe it is the most beautiful bush I have ever seen.

The picture doesn't begin to do it justice. Did I mention in an earlier post how much I love Spring ?
