June 29th, 2009 · 1 Comment

I think we’re approaching ( approached?) mid-year, so it’s time to review those New Year’s resolutions. Mine, reading to Katherine every day, has been fairly well accomplished. I can’t say it has happened every day, but I’ve done a better job of making it a priority and that’s what counts, I think. Also, I’ve been […]

Just Sayin’

June 22nd, 2009 · No Comments

How much booty shaking should be going on in a five year old’s cheer camp? Little to none, I say. But the girls that run cheer camp? They think that cheering is all about the booty.

June 21st, 2009 · No Comments

Since my daughter announced that she is going to spend cheer camp cheering for the Gamecocks (GROSS) I’ve been trying to indoctrinate her in the proper team to cheer for- the Clemson Tigers.

A motivational link

I really love this challenge idea from “The Anti-Jared.” and I enjoy his blog as well. 
Check out his before and after shots and his very cool contest. I’m considering entering it, and the only thing holding me back is something truly ridiculous: the “before” picture. The very idea of getting a full-length, side or […]
