Don't let the cutesy faces and fluffy feather tails fool you, they WILL try to destroy you if you enter their territory when we are not around. We had to post the sign a few years back as they tend to corner unsuspecting gate crashers with a great show of bared teeth, deep throaty barking, and a killer stare. When we come out to see what the fuss is all about, they immediately turn into fluffy marshmallow cutesy puppies who are the friendliest things going. Tibbies are very territorial...that's why the Tibetans kept them to guard their palaces...no one gets by a Tibbie without permission. No one. So, go ahead and laugh at the sign...just try to come on in...everyone laughs the first time. Everyone.
READING: Indianapolis Monthly magazine as I need to go to the library today and get a new run of books...don't hold your breath, I'm fairly certain it won't be anything you will be rushing out to find for yourselves.
LISTENING TO: The soundtrack to Grease...this is why you should never fully trust my taste in anything...occasionally I just listen to things that will leave you gaping with horror. (Oh, and I was dancing to it, too, so really...you should probably just lock me up and toss the key.)
FAV NEW FIND; Jan reminded me of the importance of this favorite thing this week. At the Mass for Kelly on Tuesday, all the high school CSC swimmers sat together in a couple of rows of pews. Most of them were in suit and tie and lovely girly type dresses and all of them were there because CSC is like a family and we had lost a dear and treasured member. After nine years with this club, and Jan has been with it for ten years with Johnny, these are the people we see almost each and every day throughout the entire year. The church was packed with swim families. During the Our Father, the swimmers all reached out and held hands, and as a parent, there are just some moments you know you will treasure forever. Seeing all the kids we have known and loved all these years joined thusly, was one of those times. So, while I have always known we are a tight-knit bunch, my favorite new find is just how strong the bonds are among us all through our children.
FAV THING TODAY; GUERIN IS OUT FOR THE SUMMER AT 11:30 A.M. YAHOOOOOO!!!!! CHS gets out tomorrow at noon! Let the summer begin! I am so ready for it!
SCRAPBOOK PAGES THIS WEEK; None...but tomorrow is a workshop, so hopefully I can do a few then.
GOING TO: CSC swim picnic on Friday afternoon, and the rest I will need to post on Monday because I am clueless at this point...something special, I know that much...it's going to be some sort of surprise, that's all I know. (Hint: Our 30th Anniversary is Monday.)
PRAYING FOR: Continued prayers for Kelly, Donna, Scott, Sarah, and Katie...please join me.
