Hey, y'all! Hope you havent forgotten about me!!! I've been light on the blog updates, but once again, didnt really have much to report.
I did enjoy the Olympics last week. The swimming and gymnastics are my favorites, and I loved getting caught up in it. Michael Phelps was unbelievable. I was also rooting for Darra Torres Saturday night and was sad she didnt get an individual gold medal. It's amazing that a 41 y/o can still hang with the "young'ins" and only miss the gold by 1/100th of a second. Keep your fingers crossed we can see her do it at 45!!!
Other than that, we had a fun weekend. We were low key Friday night but had some things to do Saturday. We (and a few other people) helped a friend paint. I'll admit, I've probably painted once in the last 15 years (it's Hal's job), but I gave it a good shot. I told Hal not to get any ideas on it being a regular thing around our house.
After the painting, we zipped over to Opry Mills for a thing for Hal's office. We went bowling & played some arcade type games at Dave & Busters. As usual, I was one of the worst bowlers in my lane, but I'm used to that. I did do very well at a trivia game later and won a lot of tickets (that we gave to little kids of Hal's coworkers). I still enjoy bowling no matter how good/bad I am.
We had a mostly relaxing Sunday. We enjoyed some lunch on the patio at SATCO before coming home for some yard work. I'm ashamed to admit I was a little sore in the "gluts" after bowling and yardwork. Sigh.
I'm excited this week to find out who Obama will select as his VP.
I hope you all have a great rest of the week. Thanks for checking in on my blog!

I love bowling too. I never do it anymore. I used to be on a league when I was about 16. It's always fun. I've got a pretty strong arm.
Opry Mills looks like a nice place. Next time I'm in Nashville I'll have to stop in. I still want to see the Athena inside the Parthenon.
Hey, Gurl! That title is all wrong - you're always clever!
Sounds like you guys had a fun weekend. It was so nice of you to help your friend paint. Just think, she'll always look at her walls and think, "My goodness, a diva painted these."
P.S. I'm looking forward to the VP pick as well. I really hope it's not some boring, old, white, man. Come on Obama - be bold!!!
