St.John's mighty Saints

Today is catchup day....now for the life of Whitney...which keeps us on our toes and in our cars....practice everyday from 4:30-7:30...1-2 games/week and the last 2 weekends had tournament games both Friday nites and Saturday mornings......out of town...........

These Lady Saints are awesome...lots of Seniors graduating last year so the team is made up of Whitney (the Libero in yellow) and her buddies....5 Jr's, 1 Sr. and 2 Freshmen...a new group that plays together like a well oiled machine!! We're looking forward to a great season!!

Adah has a new home

GrandMarc Tallahasse...."welcome home"

Adrianne moved to FSU in August...she told us allllllllllllllllll Summer...no roomate for me please...now, just 3 weeks into the Semester...you guessed....she has a roomate...."Jessica"...a local girl from Ocala...yay!She moved on Tuesday into a more spacious 2 bedroom which...costs less...hooray!

Of course it has seashell dishes, and palm tree glasses....and drapes the color of sand and water...

Her little apt. is cute and cozy and calm....everything opposite of last year...well, except for the cute...last year's was cute ...just wild...not calm! These pics are from the first apt....much smaller...more pics to follow later...

and a painted wall mural (that she did herself)

We are thrilled she is now content in her new School...with a new major (communication), making new friends, and enjoying a new kind of independence....minus one man in her life.....and, has already attended her first football game there (FSU lost but was a great game) GO NOLES!!

Baby Beemer getting all cleaned up....by someone who WANTS to clean it!! Baby Beemer washed and waxed..mmmm!

Ok, lots of catching up to do....but for now, I will start with today....I am at Ocala's Infamous Cactus Carwash...ask anyone in town...they will tell you...best place to go for your money...they do EVERYTHING!! (and provide use of their internet while you wait)

I'm driving home from Tallahassee last nite (takes 3 hours) and I'm listening to late nite Christian Talk Radio....they are asking the question: "If someone off the street up and gives you $100 what would you do with it?" I knew immediately...buy shoes! But as I listened for about an hour no one ever said that. No one ever said they would spend it on themselves...NO ONE...then I thought maybe people were just trying to "out be good" everyone else. All the answers were: I would give it to charity, my Sister, my Brother, the church, the radio station....really? I'm a Christian. I love the Lord....but I wanted new shoes and a carwash...like today at Cactus Carwash.

I'm actually having a good time sitting in here..sipping on a Slush Puppy, that they make for you right here...I could have a brownie if I wanted or a muffin...but I'm not hungry. It's air-conditioned and has nice leather chairs (made to look like Indians made them...stretched leather, wood tomahawk legs.....) Yep, I would spend the $100 on shoes and a carwash...I would give my 10% to the church...on that note I did agree with the others...probably even take my buddy, Gatorflame, the Pastor out to eat too!
