Well yesterday was quite a day. Mainly because it was a Monday. And I had to go the grocery store because, while we had plenty of snack-type foods, we were sorely lacking in actual things that make up a real meal. Like Honey Nut Cheerios and pretzel sticks and vegetables.
So today is just going to be a quick list of things that I want to share with the group. You may think I am totally worthless for posting some kind of list when it’s only a Tuesday and that I should be more creative. And to that I say YOU ARE TOTALLY RIGHT.
But it was 112 degrees here yesterday so don’t hassle me. I’m local.
1. Speaking of the heat, I got in my car to pick up Caroline from school and the digital thermometer read 127 degrees. And then it exploded.
Not really. But that would have been an awesome story.
2. About a month or so ago, Angie Smith wrote a beautiful post called Honeysuckle and Fireflies about her neighbor who loves to play baseball.
It made me cry and I cried all over again yesterday when I read this post about Norris the Atlanta Brave. God is so good.
3. My whole week was made when I saw that Sophie is going to be hosting a DipTacular this Wednesday just in time for the start of college football season. You can read all the details right here.
For those of you not familiar with a DipTacular, it’s simply the greatest way to discover all manner of new things to dip your chips in.
4. Did someone say college football? Listen. SEC or no SEC. Whatever. (Not really whatever because I really want the SEC thing to happen, but I’m being coy.)
The bottom line is the Aggies start their season in just a few short days. Gig’em.
It really is the most wonderful time of the year.
5. And while we’re on the topic of wonderful, did any of y’all see Adele on the VMA awards? If you missed it you can watch it here.
In a world of people hatching out of eggs to make a statement, I believe this makes it obvious what talent really looks like. Amazing.
That’s it for today.
Stay classy.
