It's Thursday

The best part of Thursday is waiting for Friday to come along. I sure could use a long weekend I am feeling woren down . It has been a week of absolute craziness of running here and there; which is just what I will do more of today. I am so ready to stretch out and relax in nature, breath in fresh [allergy ridden] air, play Yahtzee and Catch Phrase, listen to birds sing and crickets chip while living in--for the weekend--a box with my family. Oh ya, this family is going camping! We heart our camper. We'll make campfires and sing Spice Girl songs, maybe even a little Dionne Warwick (to drive King Ralph mad). We'll roast marshmallows and smash them between graham crackers. But...not till after our first football game Friday night.

Friday night football games mean going from work right to the high school were I stand bunning hair and passing out eyeshadow all in the name of Color Guard. I eat a dinner of nacho chips and cheese lard--cause everyone knows nacho cheese at a concession stand is the farthest thing from cheese. I'll be sporting my Flyer's spirit wear with my blue jeans while taking in the half time show. I'll cheer for a winning game for my alma mater. It's "Friday Night Lights".

But before I even dream of Friday I need to pack lunches, get my [expired] driver's license renewed and come up with something to cook for Thursday dinner.

Hurry up and get here Friday!

Oh, the lives we lead! Yours sounds like mine, and perhaps the only difference is the school colors we wear. Ours is orange and brown--kill me now. Nobody looks good in orange.

Have a great weekend with the family, Jodi!! I hope it doesn't rain on your camper. :) Breathe deep, pally. Tuesday is coming up fast.

Lin- Yes, the school color are different -- green and gold for us. However, Maddi keeps asking me to show her Em's parade guard uniforms...she loves them. I ahve to say so do I. Love the silver hair scarf.

Oh...I look great in orange, seriously. It just doesn't look good on the Flyers side.

Have a great long weekend.
