So You Think You Can Dance

I really enjoy dancing and even love watching dancing, any type of dance, it’s all good. So it’s so cool that there are so many TV shows featuring dance. Tonight’s “So You Think You Can Dance” was spectacular. There is so much great talent out there that are getting a rare opportunity to show it off.

Let The Games Begin

I just heard that the Redskins are gearing up for tomorrow which will be their first pre-season game of this up and coming professional football season. I can’t believe that football season is so close to starting all ready. Next thing you know it will be Thanksgiving and then of course Christmas will be consuming us all in no time. Really the only good thing about fall and winter is football, I’m glad that I have subscribed to the sunday ticket with my satellite provider, Direct TV. I always enjoy having friends over on Sunday’s for a good game and a good time with plenty of munchies and loads of cold beer. I have a good sized flat screen TV that makes watching the games a much better experience then it was before I invested in a big screen like I did.

My good friend, Donna from work also enjoys football, she has the Cox cable sports package and she likes to have people over on Monday for the Monday games, so it works out real well for everyone involved. We have a lot in common, other than just working at the same place and we have become pretty darn good friends these past couple of years.

So which ever is the most convenient – be it cable sports or satellite sports between the two of us we’ve got it covered. I hope the Redskins start the year with a major win over the Buffalo Bills, guess we will find out tomorrow, let the games begin!

Time For Exercise

With the weather getting better and better with each passing day, I find myself anxious to spend more and more time outside lately. I had promised that I would start going for more walks when the weather broke so it looks like I’ve got some walking to do. I do want to go online and find a good pair of Shoes that would be good to walk in. I’m sure that I could find a good deal if I just took a little bit of time and did some searching some evening on my handy dandy laptop.

I have a pair of Sneakers that are still in good shape, but I’m not sure if I would be doing any justice to my feet, legs, back, etc buy wearing them that much. I might as well look for a good pair of Running Shoes while I’m at it. I don’t intend to keep walking for very long. I really want to start running again, but I have to start some where.

Buying shoe online doesn’t have to be a hassle. I found a great buying guide and plenty of tips for shoes online that I found to help set my mind at ease about ordering footwear via the Internet. I’m pretty good at finding good deals with reputable companies online. I’ll keep you posted………

Tee Time at Myrtle Beach Come June

My sister just called and has invited me to go with her and her husband to spend a nice relaxing long week end at one of the best Oceanfront Myrtle Beach Resorts come the end of June. They just got their tax return in the mail and have decided to live it up for a change. Things have been so depressing with the economy and the extreme winter weather that we all need a nice break before we all lose our minds. Wasn’t that so cool of her to include me in on the fun in the sun at the Myrtle Beach Resort that she has made reservations at come summer!

She went online and did a quick research and found a great Oceanfront Myrtle Beach Resort that has some great golf packages to offer. We all enjoy a good game of golf now and then. Our parents got us into golfing at very early ages and it has always been a great family activity that we try and partake in as much as possible. So golfing at one of the great golf courses that Myrtle Beach is so well known for sounds wonderful!

Knowing my sister as well as I do I can imagine that she has found one of the better Myrtle Beach Resorts that they have there and we are all in for a great treat. It has been a rough couple of weeks for me at work and this is just what I need to keep me going. Thanks sis!

Way Cool!

Years ago my sister and I used to go to several Rodeos a year. We really got into the whole Rodeo scene. We had our cute little western outfits, with girly cowboy hats, boots and even a bandanna once in a while. I run across parts of and pieces of our outfits here and there around the house, in the back of a drawer or in a box downstairs and it always puts a big smile on my face. We even made a cool scrapbook that my sister keeps at her place, from all the pictures that we had taken back then. I’ve got to see if she can take a moment and dig it out next time I go over to see her. It would be fun to see them again with her.

A good friend of mine just went online at work and purchased Tickets to the National Finals Rodeo that is being held in Las Vegas this December. Man what I would give to be able to go with her. Attending the National Finals Rodeo is cool enough, but to attend it in Las Vegas, way cool! Oh well, there is still time to purchase tickets, who knows maybe I’ll win the lottery, or the major football pool at the office by then! The tickets to the Rodeo aren’t the pricey issue, it would be the transportation and lodging that would be a pain. Looks like I need to start picking some lottery numbers, you can’t win if you don’t play.
