FF Someday My Frags Will Come

And the frags are here!! I was inspired by Keetha over at The Eclectic Company to begin the fun FF intro challenge. Hers are very clever. We even did the same exact intro once ;-)

Have you every noticed just how many FF Mrs. 4444 has hosted? She has had to create witty Friday Fragment posts for 233 Friday's now. That is a lot of creativity!

"Mrs. 4444, have you ever had to double up on your creative intro? Have you ever had writer's block concerning the intro?" Wow, that is my first online interview :-)

I am so tired today. I am going to do my best to swing through every entry in the FF link again this Friday. However, last night hubby was having some pretty serious muscle issues, which means we were up last night with the thumper massaging his calf muscles. The poor guy was in so much pain!!! He very rarely wakes me up at night, but around 3am I heard "Honey? Hey, please wake up and help me, I am hurting so bad."

I have always enjoyed the clean comedy of Sinbad. He came through both military bases in Alaska offering a free show for the service members and their families. It was hilarious!! He was doing pictures and autographs after, but my kids and I were just starving and the line was crazy. But oh my goodness, it was hilarious.

I meant to blog about that this week. I meant to blog about a lot of things... yea, didn't get to any of them :-(

I received a very sweet and humbling comment this week. A reader was genuinely thankful for me. No kidding! It was very humbling. Thank you Angi for making my day. I need to get those posts out of 'draft' and post the ones about our History Hunting :-)

Oorah, Marine, Oorah! I just read an article about an Alaskan marine who assisted in stopping a bank robbery. He was calm and cool headed, and he didn't run away from a situation. It may not seem like much, but not everyone would assist in stopping a bank robbery up here.

I am seeing 'code' in my sleep again. This time I had to brush off the dust off my CSS knowledge because Hubby is beginning his own website through a self-hosted WP deal. Wow, that is so different from the Blogger stuff. It may seem like a small thing, but my brain is having such a hard time between code that uses the shift+keys as opposed to the standard keys. Much frustration with my brain not shifting :-(

Once upon a post, long, long ago... I have mentioned before that my two closest cousins/best friends and I have a daily email correspondence going. Some days the humor just hurts my core muscles while I laugh. This week was no exception:

(Layni)  Yay for Levi, who used Bonnie’s potty chair for the first time yesterday!  He got chocolate ice cream for a treat last night.

(Sam) Hey I'll use Bonnies potty chair for chocolate ice cream :)

(Sam) So I decide to do one of my computer classes today (it was garassned and discrimination). I take the pretest get 100% still have to go through the glass and take the post test and it was the same bloody test
(Layni) And yet you still came up with “garassned.”

(Me) Just a classic Sam-ism
(Sam) stupid non auto correct
(Me) Danged if it does, danged if it doesn't!!

Mrs. 4444 shared some adorable videos of teaching her puppies to walk on a treadmill. I thought they were a lot of fun to watch! But it made me think about the first time I got on a treadmill. I didn't know how to run the stupid thing, I chose some setting that apparently changed speed during the workout, and I eventually got launched off the back of it. And NO OF COURSE NOT, I was not alone in the gym. Some very nice young men came to help me up off the floor. So very, very embarrassing. To visualize my story, this polar bear has about the same luck with a treadmill that I did!!


Oh hey, there is only one day left on my Starbucks gift card giveaway. I have 3 gift cards, each worth $5 bucks. Any and all of my readers have a shot at it!!
