You gals have simply blown me away with your attention to my title dilemma. Your excitement over this project has lit a little fire in me to really get moving on this project. I'm praying through each of your posts and suggestions... and yes I've read through them all several times. I really want to get this title right.
I'll post the winner of the coffee gift certificate tomorrow... as long as I have Internet service. I'm taking my girls on a fun little last minute get away this weekend. If you don't see a post from me tomorrow, just know that I will be back on Sunday. Hopefully with a cure to my pasty white winter skin. Smiles!
And while I am excited about catching a few rays... that's not the real reason we're headed somewhere sunny. We're doing this get away because Ashley had to scratch from her big Regional Gymnastics meet this weekend.
Scratching from the biggest meet of the season was a hard decision that we let her make. Her shoulder still does not have full range of motion. Watching her handle the ups and downs of this competition season with such maturity has made me realize you don't have to win to be a champion.
Though she tried with all her might to come back this time, the continued pain in her shoulder made her realize the realities of that catchy rock song, "You can't always get what you want... no you can't always get what you waaaant."
Who sang that? Was it Mick Jagger? Cindy Lauper? Barry Manelow? Obviously, I'm no music expert. I don't even think I spelled their names right. But I don't want to use google right now because those little shiny things scare me. What are those?
Anyhow, speaking of music experts I have two words from this week's American Idol, "Um Paula?" I'm not going to jump into a diatribe about the whats and the whys I just had to say those two words.
And I must say I'm sad to see Brooke White go.
Brooke, if you read this, have your people call us. I have a little girl named Ashley who has a great perspective on carrying on after you've been scratched. We still love you in our house. And I would totally buy your record... or CD... or download... or whatever cool people do these days with music.
Happy Thursday Everybody!
