Thursday Thirteen

1. I have been very lazy about writing lately, which bothers me. Hopefully doing the Thurs13 will inspire me to be more consistent with writing. Therapy, I tell you!

2. It isn't Thursday any more where I am right now. Thursday left 30 minutes ago. Now, taking that into consideration, I have three Thursdays left as a Texan.

3. I am contemplating not leaving Texas until July 17. Travis is competing in the Army Ten-Miler Fort Jackson Qualifier on the morning of the 18th. If I leave on the 16th, he will be up late on the night of the 17th waiting for us to get there. I want him to do well because he wants to do well. I would rather not keep him up that night.

4. We went to see "Angels and Demons" at the theater on-post tonight/last night (depending on how you look at it). It was good. It wont change the world, but it was good and I loved the cinematography. Way cool.

5. Tomorrow and Saturday are our last sporting events in Texas. Whew.

6. I did laundry today, pretty much all day, and I still have more to do.

7. Swamp coolers and humidity= cranky Stacie. 'Nuff said.

8. I had coupons for free coffee thingies at McDonald's so I took the kids there after track for a caffiene fix. I hate coffee, but they both like it. The lady at the window who took my order, who I always joke with, stamped the card four times. She rocks.

9. I made great BBQ pork sandwiches tonight using cheapie country-style ribs. I did a dry rub, crock-potted them, trimmed them up and shredded them, sauced them, and then we had them on whole-wheat buns. They rocked! Sadly, no BBQ remains.

10. Tomorrow is another fun-filled errand day before noon, then prep-mode for the track meet, then the 1st session of the track meet.

11. Dear Lord, Please help it not be scorching-hot at the UTEP track stadium tomorrow. Amen.

12. Dear Lord, Please help it not be scorching-hot at the UTEP track stadium Saturday. Amen.

13. Surprisingly, with as much as I have to say, I barely could come up with 13 different points to mention. Something must be wrong wtih me.

I've not been writing much lately either ... focused more on photos more than anything else these days. Hope your prayers are answered and it's not too hot at the stadium. Luv the 'vacation' photo of your feet in the sidebar ;--)

I've played on all three blogs this week ... just because. Links to my T-13s at:
