Happy Birthday to the Joplin side of the family!

March is a big birthday month for our family. First off - on March 15 - is the twins birthday. I've already noted they turned 17 last Saturday. Then on the 17th - we have our sister-in-law's - or is that sister's-in-law? - Sandy, my brother Terry's wife, and Debbie, Corby's brother Doug's wife. On the 19th we have Doug's birthday (Happy Birthday Doug!) and this Friday the 21st is our niece Megan's 22nd birthday! Happy Birthday Megan! We also have our nephew Cory's 18th birthday on the 25th! Now you see why I call it a big birthday month? I have several friend's birthdays this month too - so all in all - March is not only St. Patrick's Day month for us, but "wild birthday" month!

Are you all ready for the NCAA Tournament? Today we pressed the NCAA Big Dance section that is going to be in the paper on Thursday. I was pretty darn thrilled that the front page was a big photo of Michael Beasley with a purple headline! GO K-STATE! I have to be realistic though. I imagine KU will go much further than K-State, but one can always dream!

I haven't done a quote of the day in a while so here goes: "The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today." -- Franklin D. Roosevelt

Isn't This Gross?

Corby lets Muffin drink out of his milk glass. Isn't that disgusting? I love animals, but I sure don't share my drinks with them. YUCK! Brandon will be home tomorrow - on his 19th birthday! His last final is at 12:30. Corby & Kaleb are headed up to help him bring his stuff home. I was planning on going, but because Hope is out on medical leave, I can't take off. That's okay - I really wasn't looking forward to carrying his stuff down 7 flights of stairs! YIPPEE - MY BABY IS COMING HOME FOR THE SUMMER! Does anyone else out there love "House Hunters" - the show on HGTV? For some reason, that show grabs me. I like to see the 3 houses the couples (sometimes singles) choose from. Of course, most of them have a lot more money than we do! Saw one last night that was a young couple in Chicago - lived in the inner city, but with 2 kids decided to move to the suburbs. Their goal was to find a house for under $1,000,000. That a million dollars folks! How can peop...

Terrible Day

I'm not going to go into a lot of detail here, but suffice it to say that I had a TERRIBLE day at work! I made a huge mistake costing the company some revenue, and I feel awful! I certainly didn't need anyone to get on my butt, because I was kicking myself for the better part of the day. I know, I know, I'm human, but this was a BIG human mistake! I hate to admit that I'm human! HATE TO MAKE MISTAKES - ESPECIALLY BIG ONES! Okay, that's it. I'm having a margarita and trying to relax now. I'm done with being human for a while!
