survived the storm!!

I spent a little longer in the training room than I wanted to today but wanted to make sure the weather was going to be okay to go home. Turns out I decided it was okay to go home right in the middle of rush hour traffic, smart one Amanda!!! What usually takes me 15 min took 45 today. I usually don't go home at 5 and especially not in the rain. If it sprinkles here it slows down traffic. Seems everyone gets excited and slows down to 4 mph then that causes accidents and the chain of stupidity continues... I've said it before and I'll say it again...People in TN are the worst drivers in the country, I swear they will give anyone a license here...Holy Cow!!!

The rain let up not to long after I got home, so we fed the puppies and they finally decided that it was safe to go outside and play. We knew they would get kinda soggy but felt bad for them for being trapped inside all day. They had a good time out there but then we forgot about them and all of a sudden the skies opened up again.

The poor puppies were trapped outside in the pouring down rain!!! They were waiting patiently by the back door for us to let them in as we rushed to the back door to get them.

At least this time we didn't have to give them baths, it was raining so hard they were already squeeky clean from their "rain shower" all they needed was a toweling off!!!!!

Scary Weather

So I am sitting here in my training room by myself because I don't want to go home and drive through a tornado. We are having some serious scary weather here and for any of you that know me well, you know I DO NOT LIKE TORNADOs!!!!! So far so good, think they are all going to pass around us but they are letting all the kids go home but I want to stay for a little bit. A tornado has already touched down about 5 miles from my house so I am really hoping that my puppies are alright!!!!

Hi Trevor!!!!

I'm Tired!!!

Today has been quite a long day.(long couple of days actually!!) I worked from 7am till 11:00pm yesterday. I had to see patients in the clinic first, then we had a chili lunch so I felt obligated to stay to eat instead of going home for lunch like I usually do on Tuesday and Thursday. Then I went to go get my yearly TB test and then off to the high school. Most of our teams were away yesterday but we had a couple teams practice then a soccer game at 7pm. About 10 minutes left in the second half of the soccer game a kid broke his collar bone!! So off to the ER I went to make sure that the kid was taken care of over there. He got released about 11:00. Got to bed around 11:45 then up early this morning to go back to work. Thought I would be done early today since ALL of my teams are away, right. You wanna know the best part about my job. Realizing there is a Tennis match at 4:30 that I have to stay for when I thought I would be out of here at 5. Now looks like I'm staying till 7. So I went up and told the coaches that I have paper work to do and I am hanging out in the athletic training room until its over. I just can't sit out there today and watch Tennis of all sports!!! Yuck! Sorry tennis lovers! I hope everyone else is having a better day than me.





Here is a picture of me working...its football last fall but I thought I would add a picture today too.


Here's another, see, I can never escape laundry!!!!!!

Lazy Sunday!!!

We started today off slow. I actually fell asleep last night at 8:30. I think it might have had something to do with "Earth Hour". We shut all the lights out to watch TV. Would have gone out to have a fire but it was pretty soggy out there!! I also had to work all day yesterday at a track meet and oh how I love track!!! That pretty much exhausted me and we had some crazy storms here last night. So, after a big dinner, scary storms and a couple beers; I was out!!!

We were up pretty early last this morning and watched the news to see if there was any storm damage and really there wasn't much. We hung out for a little bit then went to church, went and bought us some new running shoes and then grocery shopping. That pretty much wore us out for the rest of the day. We came home and put all the groceries away and I put a pork roast in the crock pot.
Tom studied most of the afternoon.

So, our lives are pretty boring today as far as that goes unless you count watching a round or two of "puppy rumble" which keeps us entertained for a while.

We also got to talk to a lot of family today. We each got to talk to our Mommies today. I was on the phone with Kimmy and also heard from Drew...

We got some good news from Drew...He spent the weekend in California with Kendra and it looks like there will be another wedding coming soon. Drew asked Kendra to marry him on the beach at sunset...How romantic...Congratulations Drew and Kendra!!!
