Butt Crack

This is a totally random thought blog post and probably isn't worth your reading.

Last night, as I was drying off after a shower, I noticed something that I don't think I had noticed before. I was looking for a wild hair that sometimes grows on my lower back. I hadn't seen it in a while so I was looking to see if it was growing or not. Wild hairs are weird. Why does a hair just grow super long in a day some places? Or do they grow slowly but we just don't notice them?

I couldn't find the wild hair. I had talked before about hanging a bead on that one hair and celebrating it. It would probably pull the hair out though, since the wild hairs are usually pretty thin. If I had three hairs all together, I would braid them. I would like to see how long I can grow one someday.

But getting back to last night and my discovery. As I cranked my head around to see my back I realized that I could see my own butt crack (sorry Mom and Dad). Why did I never realize this before? Or is it because I have been doing P90X and the stretching is helping me to turn my head farther? I think I will give P90X the credit for this one. Or maybe I should thank my parents for the genes. I'm sure they would appreciate the credit. Or maybe everyone can see their own crack and we just don't talk about it. I have been told I talk about things that others know not to talk about in public, so this is possible.

So the next time you take a shower and are drying off, check to see how far your head can turn. And tell someone!

You are so random. I'm glad I checked AGAIN for your blog. We were talking tonight about when little girls stop giggling about the word "poopoo" and as I read your blog we wonder if they ever do.

I laughed so hard and read this to my little sister. I used to have a wild hair on my arm; it was long and blonde so I named it Galadriel. Then one day it was gone and I was pretty sad.

Hot town!

Of course you have heard me complain about the heat lately. This will be a regular thing for the next couple of months. I looked on CNN weather page to see just how hot it was and it said at midnight that it was "99 and dreary". So true. We are thankful for electricity and air conditioners. When I do aerobics I turn the a/c on and it makes it bearable. You would think that the fat would just melt off. The problem is that ice cream is so cold and refreshing. Then there are mango shakes. yum.

Redeemed

Psalm 49:7-8 “No man can by any means redeem his brother.  Or give to God a ransom for him.  For the redemption of his soul is costly.” It is an amazing thing when someone comes to faith in God.  Last night I got to witness my brother in-law give his life to Jesus.  His life was redeemed.  The ransom for his soul was paid by Jesus long ago, but yesterday he was set free. My brother in-law was in darkness.  He knows his life was full of darkness and demonic presence.  He has been hearing about Jesus for years and knew that if he ever decided to become a follower that he would do it completely, not half heartedly.  He finally saw that he needed Jesus.  So yesterday he prayed a beautiful prayer acknowledging his need to get rid of the darkness in his life and knowing he can’t do it on his own.  Jesus filled his life.  My brother in-law said he felt something leave.  It was the darkness.  Jesus has filled his life...

The Party

Last night I went to Allison's (sis in-law) batchlorette party. It was at a mexican restaurant/bar. It was a very crowded place so we weren't able to get a big table all together. Allison and her girl friends were at one table and the old folks (me and others) were at our own table (feeling awkward). Allison showed up at the place drunk already, from a bit too many drinks in the limo. I thought it would be embarrassing to be around your mother in-law to-be and your grandmother in-law to-be, but she didn't seem too worried about it. Allison wasn't a bad drunk really. She was a little loud, but not obnoxious. I felt old. I had a new dress on, but I ended up looking like an old lady instead of a young thing. I had some nice shoes on too. But my purse, which looked fine at home, turned into an old lady purse. It was also cold out, so I had a shawl. I'm glad I had it but it just added to the old lady look. I don't drink for two reasons. First, I am che...
