Eat em up tigers, eat em up!

Hey guys!! It's been a while since I have posted anything. I have been

really busy with things....you know....with life :)

Last night I went to the Tigers game. They were playing the Mariners.

They are from Seattle in case you didn't know that. I didn't until someone

informed me of this yesterday.

The organization I work for gave me free tickets as long as I promised to donate

my time May 1st and go walk for their organization. Seems too easy. I kinda feel bad though.

I didn't realize that May 1st is a Sunday....so I won't be able to do the walk because I have to

work at my church. Still got the free tickets though.....SCORE!

Here I am, enjoying the game. Yes.....WAY UP THERE! And to think I would have

walked a million miles for these tickets. I PROMISE I'm not selfish....just lazy.

This is my coworker Niki and I. Ok, I claim her as a friend as well. She also

pledged to walk the miles for these free tickets.


I brought my friend Steve. And that is his little brother...as in Big Brothers
Big Sisters. Steve volunteers with them and that is the little guy they gave him.
He kept us pretty entertained throughout the night. He told me he's been dating his
girlfriend for 2 years.....so of course I'm curious how this ten year old met his girlfriend.
He then states that they had known each other for a few years and then started hooking up.
HOOKING UP???? Please explain to me why a ten year old is using the phrase hooking up?
He also told us how he loves his girlfriend because she has blond hair. He also told me how he
would like to turn the Tigers bat he bought into a canibal weapon. This things kids say.

Just a view of downtown detroit. We were supposed to get severe storms that night,
but luckily we stayed dry. It only rained for a matter of twenty seconds. PTL=Praise
The Lord!

I then came home to eat half the bag of this lovely. It's a mixture of dried

cranberries, dark chocolate, almonds, and raisins. It's my new love!

Survey

Hey y'all....I'm having a dilemma....and since I'm horrible at making decisions....I figured I would get everyones advice. 1. New car.....but have a car payment and full coverage insurance for years. 2. Save and get a used car and have no payment for years to come. Please help me figure out this dilemma!!!

Three Things Thursday

1. I am no longer sick - Most of you probably hadn't noticed that I had not had a new post in a while....and I forgive those of you that didn't even notice. But I just returned from my long trek from hell. The past week I have been extremely sick. Well, what I consider extremely sick. A minor runny nose to you is death to me. I never get sick so I don't know how to deal with the smallest illness. And it really put a damper on my running as well. Since I'm a newbie at running I've never experienced trying to run when you can't breath out of your nose. It feels like someone is suffocating you and your legs feel like elephant stumps. But alas, all is well now and I'm back into blog world. For now at least :) And I also have been back to running for the last few days.....I'm back up to 1.3 miles. Will I ever run further????

2. I lost something very close to me today -

Yes I exaggerate everything, but just agree with me. Today I wanted to wear my Orioles tshirt and I couldn't find it anywhere. Then I realized I gave it to a friend a while ago and I never got it back. Somehow I forgot that I had spoke to him about this already before and he said he doesn't know where it is. It's like I had to live the pain all over again. You know that moment you have when you don't use something for a very long time and then you realize you've lost it or given it away and then all of a sudden it's like that's the only thing that matters in the world to you? I really need to get my priorities in order.

3. Qi Zuo - I would like to introduce you to my new sponsor child. His name is Qi Zuo and he is six years old. For $30 bucks a month I am able to help provide basic needs for him and help make it possible for him to have a secure, stable environment that offers love and care. I have come to the conclusion that if I am going to support pro life then I must be willing to help take care of the children that come into this world because of it. You can visit http://www.holtinternational.org/ for more information on sponsoring a child of your very own.
