Hey Guys,
Well that weekend was fun. DeAnn has been up in arms about getting a dining room table. We never eat at the kitchen table so I just don't understand why we would add another seldom used table to our portfolio. Friday night we were back in Dothan and stopped by to see the Dothan crowd where I am beginning to see a pattern. Uncle John was gracious enough to let us lift his Sam's card to go check out a table DeAnn has been eyeing.
She liked the table and I called Uncle John and he was coming to Elba on Saturday and said he would bring it. He ended up having to use his work van for the 5 boxes.
We went to the wedding(Congrats Judson and Katie) and knew the table was waiting on us. It took help from both sides of the family and 2 days but the tables and chairs are all assembled. Whew. I will try to post a picture.
Saturday night we went to see a local band play and had a great time and we were in bed by 12. Lent sure is nice.

Well, Bama won last night to continue their postseason run. They looked pretty good and rarely put a full game together. I am feeling much better and think I may live after all. It was touch and go for a while.
This weekend we have our last wedding for a week or two. It has been a run, I tell ya that.
I have really been hitting the gym a lot lately. I haven't lost weight, but I do feel alot better and maybe I'm toning up a bit. My goal was to drop SEVERAL pounds by Memorial Day, that isn't gonna happen.
Talk later.

Hey Guys,
I'm still sick, but I went to the doctor this morning. Having sinus issues and not wanting to be outside left me with 1 thing to do....watch the basketball tournament. I have watched more basketball in the last 4 days than in the last 4 years. I watched 4 whole games yesterday.
Saturday we went to see my good friend Kerri Lawford get married. I didn't attend the reception because I looked bad and felt worse. DeAnn said it was very nice though. Congrats K and Chris.
Friday night although I didn't need to go we had supper with Ryan and Emily. It was great catching up as we haven't seen them in a while. Afterwards, we stopped by Bert and Kitty's, they all made fun of me about my voice. The great thing about it is I really don't value too many opinions over there except for Aunt Ninny and Kitty's. They rest are just bullies for the most part. They still to kick a man while he's down. We had a good time nonetheless.

I'm a little under the weather at the moment. More than one person thinks its because I want to watch the tournament, but if you have heard me you would know that's not entirely true. Speaking of basketball, look at all the upsets yesterday. The first few games all went to the wire. I really thought St Johns would make a run, but it seems the Big East is over-rated.
That's really all I have I guess I just felt like blogging.

By the way, I have been listening to Buffett and I have a bad case of cabin fever. I'm ready to go to the beach!

March Madness
Hey Guys,
I hope everyone is playing nice. I'm pretty sure that nobody reads this thing anymore. I may need to start texting the people that do want to hear from me. That may be easier.
Today is the opening round of the NCAA basketball tourney. Since my wreck everytime I think of this I smile. In 2008 I had been awake for a little over a week. I didn't have double vision anymore and was already tired of regular TV programming. The first game started at 11 or 12 and I had a game to watch for the next 12 hours because of the West Coast. I would take a nap, watch a little, take a nap and so on. It was as close to heavan as I had been in the last couple of weeks. I got pretty close to testing that theory a few weeks before and I hope I was going up and not down. I don't think March Madness would have been as important down stairs.
We are still in wedding season with 2 coming up in as many weeks. We are meeting one of DeAnn's college friends for supper Friday night and might make an appearance at the "Playhouse". This weather sure is nice. Later.

Hey Guys,
I know it has been almost two weeks since I have posted and I apologize. I got scolded about talking about weddings/parties, but that is about all we have been doing. The weather has been absolutely amazing except for a few days.
The time changed over the weekend and it was rough getting up this morning. Maybe after a week it will be a littke better. I hope everyone has a great week.

Hey Guys,
I hope everyone had a great weekend. We sure did, we were in Birmingham for a wedding. Congrats Taylor and Kim we had a great time. Also, Happy belated Birthday Aunt Ninny. She turned 39 again yesterday.
Most of you may remember that Saturday(26th) was the 3 year anniversary of my wreck. It has been a long journey and physically I'm still recovering. Emotionally I might be as strong as ever. I don't see how you could go through that and not come out a changed person. Personally, I think I changed for the better. I enjoy all the same things as before but I take in the sounds and smells so much more. My time on the beach with family and friends is something I absolutely cherish. I sent an email on Saturday to all my docs and nurses and got really nice responses. I will never be able to thank them enough.
As I sit here typing this I can't stop thinking of my Dad. Today is the 32nd anniversary of my granddad's death. I can't imagine what he was going through 3 years ago. Sitting in the waiting room at Baptist thinking of his dad and hoping I would pull through must have been excruciating. I hope that the situation with my grandads killer will be resolved and my family can have the peace all victims deserve.
