I know it's been forever...

It has been a CRAZY month getting back into the real

retail state of mind. Christmas retail in the normal world,

Thomasville did little business this time of year so this

is back to that grind that I have been out of for three years.

And add to that, this guy has me doing his ebay store and

I have no time to sit on my laurels right now.

The kids finished up soccer and football in the last few weeks,

but now basketball season has started. Ally made the "A"

for Springfield and the "B" team for St. Francis. She thought

about not doing the St. Francis team after she did not make

the A team but she had so much playing time on the B team

last year and had a great time so she is doing both.

Last Sunday they scrimmaged against the Media A team

and beat them (thanks to her) 24-20. She had multiple

steals and rebounds and finished with 12 points, 10 of them

in the 4th quarter. What a game!! She got her braces last

week so I am including a picture of that, she looks so old.

Matt finished up flag football, thank God, I could not be at

the field another Saturday at 7:30 am. He is playing

Basketball, also, he started yesterday.

Ally got straight A's on her report card and Megan got

all A's and two B's. Remember Megan has two AP classes

and two Honors classes so I am pleased with those grades.

She is also working at Hallmark since Dairy Queen is closed

and laid her off for the winter.

Ally says its Adam and Eve's fault

So Ally and I were having the Obama and McCain
conversation. She said I don't understand why
Obama is doing so good, I said it's the way of this
country, he speaks well and looks good and that is
the way this country operates now, we like everything
Hollywood even if its not good. She said in total seriousness,
"You know it's Adam and Eve's fault." I just stopped in my tracks.
Makes you think, doesn't it?

Happy Halloween!

That is all I got, Little Miss Ally decided to leave before I even got home

from work and go with her friends and I didn't even get pictures. She

was Supergirl, maybe I will make her put on her costume so I can take

a picture, if she's not too busy that is.
