Things I've learned
This morning while finishing off a bowl of cereal (and procrastinating getting ready for work!) I picked up off my bookshelf that 'Live Learn & Pass It On' book. So, I was inspired to list a few things of my own that I've learned this year:
...the more things change the more they stay the same
...that I am a unique person full of qualities that everyone should want to get to know
...that I am strong-willed, stubborn, and these traits were dutifully passed onto me by previous generations
...that there is so much going on in the world that I should never be bored
...it's okay to dream and it's okay for those dreams to be redefined in the course of life
...about justice, freedom, and opportunities created by generations past
...that American culture should take a lesson from European culture concerning stress-free living
...that I can accomplish what I set my mind to do
...that society, rich or poor, shares their wealth in times of need
...that the Bible is really not that old-fashioned and I should seek its knowledge more often
...I can laugh at myself till I cry
Of course, I'll most certainly add to this list as I think of more!

War Damn Eagle!
Hmm...looks like I've been blog slackerific lately. I've been a tad busy, ahem...in England, and there's way too much to tell about that trip to be covered in one huge post!
Speaking of huge, this weekend is a HUGE weekend for SEC football! My boys, #15 Auburn, are playing in the 109th meeting with #9 Univ of Georgia, also known as the Oldest Rivalry of the South. I'm pretty excited about this meeting and nervous since I think UGA's not leaving any room for mistakes from Auburn after the big loss to UF in Jacksonville. Shockley is supposed to QB for UGA, so we'll see how long he lasts coming back from injury. I'll also be keeping tabs on another HUGE game, Bama/LSU since the outcome of that one will likely determine the mood for the Iron Bowl (Bama/Auburn) next weekend!
And HUGE birthday wishes go out to Al today! War Eagle, girl!
Rah Rah Sis Boom Bah!
