Please Don't Hate Me...Sincerely 'Fro Me to You

My best friend for most of my life -- Jenny in Utah -- joined a cool online carnival a few weeks ago (maybe more?) called "Sincerely 'Fro Me To You" on the blog We Are THAT Family.

This week she (Jenny) posted dance pictures from high school. Since I was in one of them, I felt compelled to join in and return the, er..."favor".

Love yer guts, Jen! Please don't hate me!


Here are a couple of my dance pictures from high school...although I couldn't find the one I was looking for that corresponds to the comment I left at Jenny's blog...





And, here's my cute friend, Jenny, and me...with a shout-out to her fabulous 'fro' and to those glasses. LOL! Too funny...





And lastly, and homage to some great 'fros from earlier decades!





...including mine (notice the blue eye shadow?)... aargh!



...and a mullet.



Aaaaah -- the 80s!



Check out the carnival at We are THAT Family, for more great "Sincerely 'Fro Me to You" pictures that didn't make the scrapbook...or shouldn't have. :-)


Take care, y'all!

Ketchup (or is it "catch up"?)

So, I substituted at a High School today. I was there for the girl's P.E. coach -- well, one of them. It was fun but not nearly as fun as the other time (at the Jr. High) that I did. Wait...Did I even write about that day yet? Or was that post just in my head? Now I can't remember.

If I didn't write about that one yet, I'm really behind, and getting 'behinder' (no wisecracks about my "assets" now y'all) all the time. :-) I definitely need to put that one in. That was a really funny day!

Anyway, today was pretty good -- but High School girls are just waaaaay too into themselves to be as funny as the younger kids. So, I did this one purely for the $$$ I guess. Not much blog material this time. I have to go back there tomorrow (same teacher, different classes) and I really should try to get some sleep, so this needs to be a short post.

Here's where the ketchup (catch up) comes in. I mentioned about going through 15 totes with my sis, Harley Mama, the other night and how I'd post pics of the "what was I thinking and why am I keeping this" hall of shame items soon.

Well, here's the first one:

Yes, friends...that really is a pair of "peg" (aka: tapered) white jeans tie-dyed with pink, purple, varying shades of blue and...I'm not sure what else. *sigh* I can't believe these ever lived in my possession. I'll never admit to having worn them. Actually, I don't know if I ever did. I have a feeling they may have belonged to Harley Mama at some point in the past. Or, they may have belonged to a dear friend I'll call "toad" (mainly because that's what we called her in grade school/jr. high). If not, I can't explain why seeing them made me think of her. I'll have to think about that one some more...

More to come on the 'wwitawdikt' hall of shame photos. Stay tuned.

Laters! :-)
