My sign hasn't made it to me yet and it was no more obvious than tonight that I needed to wear it. I decide to help Wayne get some work around the house done since he can't and so I climbed the ladder to clean out the gutters. I was going a long just great, when I noticed a slight bend in the one leg of the aluminum ladder. I climbed to the top and down I came. I am sure it was graceful as I slid my face along the grass. I laid there for a second...the only thing I could think of was...THAT WAS STUPID. I mean I am sure I exceeded the weight limit for aluminum. I mean no one this big stands on a pop can and expects it to hold them so why I thought I could climb 6 feet in the air on it, I have no idea. Needless to say...I am fine. I finished working on the backyard and played in the sprinkler with Sam. I only have a small cut on my finger to show for my fall, but this only happened a couple of hours ago, ask me tomorrow...I may be hurting a little more by then.
I have had a lot of requests to my to update my blog and many wondering if they will make it in the blog. So I tell them stories I was GOING to put in the blog and then I don't feel like including them because they lose the humor if I tell them more than once. But here are a few.

On Friday night after Wayne's surgery, I did what any other wife would do after their husbands gets home...I left. I went to a Point of Grace Concert in Columbus. I rode there and arrived there...only BY THE GRACE OF GOD! I rode with a person who I feared was driving "high on life" or "Drunk on Jesus juice" or something. I have since been told that until recently she would only right turns into traffic so that she didn't have to cross over in front of cars. This information would have came in handy BEFORE we decided who was driving. The first clue should have came as to how the trip was going to go when she mowed down the reflector at the end of our driveway. The fact that I was the front passenger in a minivan, that has no front end, and we were traveling 60 mph until about 50 feet from the stopped cars and then the brakes would be hit and I felt like I could touch the trunk in front of us, didn't help my peace of mind. AND that was just the trip down. On the way back as we are leaving the concert she mentioned she didn't think the brakes were working right...GREAT I thought I am going to sitting in back seat of someone's car as we rear end them on the way home. BUT WE HAD A GREAT TIME...no really we did. The concert was great and I couldn't get over the fact that Point of Grace looked so old but they were good. Thanks to the girls that went with me. And sorry to that driver who will probably read this. (Actually I told her I was going to write about it).

My next little entry has to be about one of my dear friends who decided to play a little prank on me as I was standing in her living room. I had my knees locked looking at pictures on her TV stand when she came up behind me and tried to buckle my knee...now most people remain standing it just makes them off balance. NOT ME. I went down like a ton of bricks on the floor. Now you would think that she would ask if I was OK...she may have but I couldn't tell over her laughing. WELL...TODAY WAS PAYBACK. I didn't even have to do anything. We were all over at a playdate when this hilarious friend got up to get on of her kids as they fell outside and BAM!!! she ran right into the screen door. Love ya, Sarah!

I have made some realization about this blogging. As much as I would like for it to be a outlet for all of my thoughts and problems, a person just can't write about it all without making someone mad. So if I don't write for a few days it is because I am trying to sort out everything going on in my life at that moment and decide what is blogging material and what isn't. Plus I can be a little lazy like my cousin Holly has been with her blog...you said it Holly not me.

ALSO...HI to all of you secret readers...Brenda, Beth, etc...etc. And please read some of my friends and family's blogs...see the links on the right, they are funny and some very insightful.
