Day 139- August 7, 2010- Russell and Hop Band

Once upon a time I was in high school.....
A long, long time ago! LOL

Actually I graduated from a class of about
300 but it was a neighborhood type school and
you knew people ahead of you or below you
in school, esp. if you had an older and a younger
brother.

My school no longer exist. It was turned
into a middle school and the high school
classes were bused here or there. That was
many years ago but thanks to one dedicated
man we have a really awesome website for
all people who attended my school from the beginning
till the closing. But...then facebook came into our life, and
from that the reconnection with people I attended
school with has grown.

With that said a lot of us have come back together
and we go out from time to time for drinks,
parties, someone in need or to support a
up and coming band.

I attended school with Curtis, lead singer of
The Russell and Hop band. He graduated the
year before me and even though I have not
seen Curtis since school thanks to facebook
and friends via facebook we have reconnected.

The band was playing at the marina down
the road from me last night. I have seen
them play a couple of times before, they put
on a really great show. It brings old classmates
out to enjoy friends, music and good times.

Thanks for a great time and great music Russell
and Hop.

Way to go, gf! When I saw Curtis' plea for high def pics for the paper, I knew you were the person to do it for him. And there is gonna be a time when I FINALLY make it ... to The Black Pearl or wherever.. to see him in person and par-tay with all of you!
To anyone else who might read the comments... I hope you have been able to use Facebook to "find your friends" from high school the way we have. We have a blast, commenting back and forth, even though we stretch from Tennessee to Georgia to Texas and beyond. I love my high school friends... especially THIS lady. I know her as P1, because we share the same first name and I am P2. Can't put a price on friends who go back to your childhood....

Seasonal Changes with Lily, Moods, Snuggle Bunny, Blue Tail Skink gets out Alive

Image
 Seasonal changes are coming,  moving in slowly as always,  but coming.  Leaves are falling, not since fall is close but cause we  are so freak'n dry. Got a little rain shower on Wed. but, it did not even register in my rain gauge.    Spider webs are thick, grass is  crunchy, flowers are giving up  the fight, and Lily is doing her seasonal behavior as fall moves in. What would that be? She has started the curling up  behind my knee sort of  thing again and  wanting to be close. Not on me,  not in my lap, but close to me. This starts taking place every year around this time. Not only has that started, I think  she knows that time changes at some point. This week, she started waking me at 4. What she don't understand, it is not bouncing forward, so 4 will not be 5.... LILY, get with the program! haha.. Actually, I think the early rise has to do with me.  You see, with me having been  suffering the last 2.5 mon...

The Rest of Today

Image
After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after h...
