The next time I sit in the football stadium stands watching a Celina football game, Chelsey and Colby will be Seniors. My heart skips a beat to type that..... Watching all those guys walk out of the locker room with tears rolling last night, was really sad. The good news is, all have good heads on their shoulders, and will now start looking at the next chapter of their life.... Just so I remember Lovejoy 17 Celina 0.
Colby's text as Chelsey and I drove home last night? "just one more year for me Mom". My reply? "I can't see to drive if I am crying son...". Chelsey cried crocodile tears as Dallas walked off the field. Good grief, what a sad night for us all
Today, I think I shall do a little Christmas shopping. Danny had to be at work at 4am this morning and will likely not get off until midnight tonight. He'll get comp time for it....so in the end, it's worth it to him! Also...he passed his test yesterday!!!!! The one that was about to kick his tail. Knew you could do it babe! I must say that we have finally settled into a groove with him working. He's so much happier to have something to fill his time during the day. Happy is a good thing at the Fenter Funny Farm!
Off to shower and see what I can find to go under the tree this year...

.....
No title for tonights post.....let's review the past 24 hours.
Yesterday afternoon, while sitting at the longest light in Frisco, I decide to check my friends Facebook status....the first one I see is:
Dallas Russell: Colby you dumb a$$
I ponder that post a minute and then decide to text Colby
Me: What happened?
Colby: we'll talk about it when you get home...please don't yell at me
Me: spill it son, I'm not waiting.....
Long pause...
Me: NOW son....
Colby: I was reversing out of the drive way and didn't know Dallas was here. I hit the Land Rover. Please don't yell and cuss at me in text.
Long long long pause....
I get home to find his passenger side tail light busted out, a dent in the bumper and Colby along with Chelsey NOT home. Danny is here.... Seems they went to the basketball games, which I think was the destination Colby had in mind earlier.
Sooooooo.......today Ashley (thank you girly) takes his truck to get an estimate....$1500. On my way home I chat with Dallas' Mom, and let her know how sorry I am and that we will pay for the dented door on the Land Rover.
Colby texts me asking what the verdict is on his truck. I reply and he sends a note back "please do not take away my weekends". I reply....son, you'd better be worried about something other than your weekends..... This is where we stand. He has straightened his room, not ran the washer, and hid in the spare bedroom for the past 2 hours....
On the flip side (anyone notice just how many times I type that?).....I am sitting in my chair, watching tv, Lily in my lap, and a Physics test is right beside me on the table. Chelsey was the only one in the class to make 100!!!!!!! I think Colby had her put the test on the table, so I would forget about his weekends...
Least they are not both bad at the same time. I might raise the roof yelling! And cussing according to Coly....although, i really do not think I do that very often....must be Mama Bear. Not ME.
Have a good one...

Highlight of our Sunday...
The highlight of our Sunday? Brookshires trip....that's about all we accomplished today. Oh and I painted my first pair of shoes and scarf today. Not too bad. Think I'll wear them to work tomorrow. I got the idea from this web site monapaints.com
Dallas/Chelsey update...we BLAST home last night, so he can come over and hang out....at 11:15pm, I had listened to their fighting for as long as I could stand. I burst into the room and say ENOUGH...you two have been at this for 2 weeks now, and I am TIRED of it. Didn't take long for him to be blazing down the drive way. Again, beware of Mama Bear.
Colby and Kevin went to the movies. He watched a ittle tv afterward and then we cut his hair. He's now cashed out in my bed. Danny is snoring and I am tired too. It felt like 10pm, at 7:30! Hate the time change....
Now...to all the other bloggers, Marla, I love the pics of Grace and Parker, so cute! Megan, congrats on moving in again. Can't wait to see the new house. Carla....next time, I visit alone, so not to rush home...
Hope everyone has a good week. Can't believe it's 10 days until thanksgiving!

197.6 miles round trip
Winnsboro is just under 200 miles round trip....made it there and back today. Great to see Paul, Carla, Morgan and Dylan. Enjoyed a great day of shopping...wish Chelsey and I could have stayed longer, BUT heaven forbid that we miss Dallas coming over. He better arrive in the next few minutes...or I shall go looking for him.
Thanks for a great day Carla, love u! Pam
P.S. Mom and Dad, Chelsey was ready to come home and I was a little nervous about hitting a deer, so we came home thru Sulphur Springs....we'll catch you one day soon!

I should be sleeping, but...
Not sure what the deal is tonight...wide awake here at 11pm. Not a good thing for my staff tomorrow....cranky by end of day I am sure.
Colby and I went to Taco Bell in Anna tonight, while Danny and Chelsey had dinner with Ashley and family. She cooked! I believe all enjoyed.....Ashley, thanks for the text....can't wait to cook with you again for Thanksgiving. Nothing like cooking and drinking vodka half the night. It's a tradition that we both really enjoy!
Lily is snoring, the dryer is roaring and I should be snoozing....lights out! G'night all..PK

Catching up from the weekend...
Friday night...Celina 58 Commerce 0. District champs! Playoffs begin Friday night in Denton. Game on....
Saturday, ran around with Chelsey for a bit. Home and then to dinner with Danny. Stopped at Roadhouse - too many people waiting, off to Saltgrass - one hour wait (I don't think so!). Finally wound up at Rockfish... Was told 30 minute wait, but actually only took about 10. Stopped by and visited with Ashley and Taz....neither grandson was home. Maybe one night we'll catch them both at home!
Sunday...cooked....then off to the Gaylord Texan with some guys and gals from work....2 of which had just flown in from Green Bay...yes, they grinned (and cheered, and strutted, and rubbed in every score) thru the entire Cowboys game....home at midnight, then up and to work today. Needless to say, I am a bit tired tonight.
And to Carla....you are correct, you almost killed me with a baton...not a bat, how could I have forgotten! Glad you had a great birthday...your present is on the counter here...will either mail it or save for when we see each other again.
Off to watch tv and bed soon...this time change stinks......I think it got dark at 4pm...I'll not be seeing daylight until spring!
Night night...
Pam
Ohhhhh, and for those wondering, I think it's over with D and Chelsey.... She WAY better with it this week than last, thank goodness.
