Congrats to My Sister!!

I would like to publically congratulate my sister for her work with Cal Aquatics. This summer Holly has been shadowing under the world's top sprint coach, Mike Bottom, helping Cal's men's swimming team gear up for the World Championships--and the guys are stroking to high placings, including golds and silvers. Woo hoo! She's a great helper and is learning a lot. Love you, girl--and good job!

The Bread with a Bite

While unloading groceries this afternoon into the freezer, I read the label on one of the loafs of bread: "Great-White Bread." Boy, better off keeping that one in the freezer--yikes! Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun, dun, dun, DUUUUUUN!

Hangin' Out In the Freezer

You know summer weather has finally hit when people start campin' out in their freezer. Chatting with my sister in the kitchen earlier this week, her head all of a sudden disappeared, like an ostrich into the sand, when she stuck it right into the freezer. Same thing happened when I was talking to my mom yesterday ... I've even done it. (We don't have AC, just fans.) Thank the Lord He has answered my prayers, tho: this summer has not really been hot with the exception of this week. But, I believe it's just a hot spell that will pass ... Fhew! For, as refreshingly cold as the freezer is, it's just not that ... comfortable ... ;)

With plenty of ice to go around-- O.J. =:-D

You Can Now Post a Comment

I set my blog up so that annonymous readers could post comments to my threads, but for some reason it changed. I have now set it back so that annonymous users can post comments again. Sorry! All better now ... :)

Dumb Blonde in A Red Car

Since I was little I've always been one to lock car doors, in bad areas, in safe areas, in covered cars and ... in convertables? Force of habit. Running an errand for my parents on Saturday I stopped at ACE to pick up a flag holder. Stepping out of the red convertable I let the airy feeling reign and left the top down. About to push the heavy door closed, I flicked the automatic lock and began strolling toward the store.

An elderly gentleman then called out, "Miss!"
I turned to look at him, "Yes?"
Smiling, walked up to me. "Do you find it helpful to lock your convertable door when the top is down?" Still smiling good naturedly.
"Oh! Force of habit ..." I giggled embarrassed that he caught me.

What I didn't tell him was that I had quickly realized what I'd done (however, I usually don't notice and usually have to unlock the converable, chiding myself...) and switched it back to unlock. When I got back to the topless, however, I realized it was still locked ... hehe I guess I am just a dumb blonde! (at least I have an excuse ...)
