Hoodie Hoo Day

Thurs. Aug. 23 is Southern Hemisphere Hoodie-Hoo Day — Long awaited by our Southern-half friends, this is the day to go outdoors at high noon and yell “Hoodie-Hoo” to chase winter and make ready for spring. Do you do something traditional during a specific season (like spring cleaning for example)? If so, what do you do?

I guess I would have to say that in the spring I do some really serious cleaning. You know, all around the baseboards, windows, corners where all those cobwebs are. Take down items and clean them up, serious dusting. And then I do the same outdoors. Here in Florida things really start growing in March and April, so its time to really do some trimming around the house.

I love Spring!! Hard work, but worth it.

Angel Day

Wednesday Aug 22 is Be an Angel Day. Tell something nice you could do for someone today.

Well I am already an angel, cause my daddy told me so. hehehehe

Anyway, I would be Pat’s (loonyhiker) angel for today and to help her to feel better. Bring her soup, do any chores that she needs done, let her rest, bring her a book, etc.

She is retired and doesn’t have time to be sick

Feel better soon Pat!!

Emailed

Name three people you last e-mailed, and why.

Emailed my dearest friend some funny jokes and pictures we can’t discuss in a G rated forum. ;)

Emailed my neighbor because I am teaching her how to use her new computer and I want her to practice using her email. She is very new beginner to computers and she is catching on pretty well.

Emailed a family member of my DH’s to send pictures of all his grandchildren to her. She hasn’t seen all of them.

Looking over my emails, they are pretty much boring. *whispering* Except for the picture jokes I sent my best friend that I was just passing on

Around my Computer

Name five things lying around your computer.
I did a layout of my computer desk right after I started coming to DSP. I think it was one of the very first challenges I ever did.
As you can see I have my hurricane list of things to have, my bulletin board, picture of hubby and me, dog mug, my glasses, dolphins, Georgia Bulldogs, Miami Dolphins, Dan Marino, friends and family pics and of course, my bowling stuff.
It’s kind of funny now that I look at the page on the computer monitor and that is my old website. It has been updated since then.

ELVIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aug 16 is the 30th anniversary of Elvis Presley’s death. Do you know who Elvis is? If so, what was your favorite movie? Are you a big fan of his? Why or why not?

You ask, do I know Elvis!!!!!!!! I was raised on Elvis music, was born and raised just 3 hours north of Memphis, love Graceland, been to Tupelo and had tickets to see him for the very first time, but he died 2 weeks before we got to go. I cried!!!!!!!!!!!! I didn’t care if he weighed 500 pounds, he was Elvis, he was, “THE KING”!!!!!

To remember him by, I took the voting card to choose which Elvis you wanted for a USPS stamp (fat or skinny Elvis), a few of the stamps that were given out on the 1st day and a stamped postcard from Graceland. All these items are framed and in my guest bathroom. So as you sit on the potty and meditate, you can remember the life of Elvis. aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh

And of course, I can’t pick out my fav Elvis movie. I have them all taped on VHS and watch them now and again. I also have a couple of his live performances on tape also.

I have tons of his music and love to use it in some of my videos I make for the family. Actually, my parents, while they were getting married, the Justice of the Peace forgot to turn off his radio and it was playing Don’t Be Cruel. So that is my parents wedding song.

Elvis has been a big part in my families life and always will be.
