Total Distance

0.00

After my disappointing knee troubles yesterday, I took a break today. It was different having a Saturday not being spent/scheduled around a run.

In Laws have pulled out of the driveway & are off on their way. It was a nice visit, but I got tired of hearing how "horrible, ugly, unhealthy, hurtful," etc, family is. I love my family; every last crazy sob in the bunch. ;-)

Best part of the day: RED NECK OLYMPICS. Wyatt's b-day party supreme. The cake was a single wide trailer with horses in the yard (mini choc chip poops under them), a rooster on the roof, and a toilet in the front yard with fresh roses in it. We played relay games involving opossum tossing (blindfolded), digging up animals from the pet cemetery with plastic spoons, shooting at plastic police men with a bb gun (aka "pop the po-po"), and duck-hunting rubber ducks. I can't wait for next year's games.

I think I did run a little when it way my turn in the relay race, which somehow makes all of this relevant to this blog!

It was the OLYMPICS! That makes it relevant to the blog :) Oh, I can't wait to see pictures - the cake was awesome (only pic I've seen so far).

I know you love us, but isn't it just so horrible about how nasty and evil all the family is? :)

Oh, speaking of pictures was buccaneer #1 the 'best dressed' at the party? He looked awesome in the outfit he posted on FB today. Just perfect for the Olympics, just perfect...

QP, never met a red neck I didn't like, have not met many, keep my distance. Family, best to stay out of the fray, can't choose your family, find the good ole boy in all them the thar red necks, yee haaaaaaaw. Hope you get better soon.
