Not so much the crop-dusting for those gals, but for us? Entertainment in its purest form. <br /><br />That note is beyond fantastic, as is the fact that Colorado is FINALLY getting a Trader Joe&#39;s.

I love the idea of sending your hubby&#39;s parents a Thank-You note! Happy Birthday to your main squeeze!

Happy Birthday to your Hubs!<br />2. My daughter accused me of farting really loudly in the library. Heads turned. I had to tell her that I didn&#39;t not fart but it only made me look guilty. I will take the blame for my own farts but not those of others!<br />3. I love Dolvett. I love how he is calm one minute and then drill sargent the next. I almost want to get fat enough to go on the show so he can train me.Jess's Journey to the Land Of Skinnyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06852165956620787698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-85782085551404215882012-01-20T09:13:45.208-08:002012-01-20T09:13:45.208-08:00Happy Birthday Ken adn I am sorry for your loss also that anonymous note was amazing :) people are so great arent they :)Ali Mchttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09825324100108230608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-73295600235878514742012-01-20T08:54:01.119-08:002012-01-20T08:54:01.119-08:00Hi Beth,<br />My little bit of fantastic is being able to read Shut Up &amp; Run (And of course my husband and kids)About a year ago I had sent you an email telling you a little about me and thanking you for your inspirational and funny words...It was a tough year as I battled breast cancer - IT&#39;S OVER - Now I just need to get my ass back into shape...Sherry is in our prayers daily...God Bless!jomac27http://www.blogger.com/profile/02376299607523833196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-40391130963412459822012-01-20T08:35:08.211-08:002012-01-20T08:35:08.211-08:00You are right life does go on, you deal with the ups and downs of a loss as they come.

She lost her husband--the father of her two young kids--in a most tragic way 2 months ago. But we had dinner last night and we talked and laughed a little and enjoyed each other&#39;s company, while our kids talked and laughed and enjoyed each other&#39;s company. The sadness was there, but the life was there too. I am thankful to have her as a friend...friends are fantastic!!Elizabethhttp://www.elizathon.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-85205671312809306062012-01-20T08:19:25.144-08:002012-01-20T08:19:25.144-08:00Happy birthday, Ken!

Keep searching for it and farting along the way! ;-)<br /><br />I am getting to take a friend of mine, who is blind, to talk to my daughter&#39;s first grade class today about all that is POSSIBLE even with a disability! Mr. Chuck is an awesome man and will show the kids today that there is NEVER a time to give up!

I was grossed out and amused at the same time - note to self, never get a leather couch. EVER. <br /><br />Hope that makes you smile.
