More like:

Q: How do you lose a 24 point lead?
A: Tony Romo.

Yeah, I saw him shrug off Jerry as well...Probably not the best move for someone in his position....

Pssh....We were leading 27-3 at half time...I believe Romo then proceeded to throw 3 INT's, and we completely blew it...They still didn't get us til the very end, though..Ended up being 34-30-.Interesting game, 4-sure....

Side note: Wonder why the Monday blog isn't up yet....12:30am here...Teacher must've fallen asleep on the job....Weird, I thought the students were the ones that did that...lol

The Monday blog isn't up yet so I will post here. It doesn't look like anybody had a really good Sunday. Me included.
Amy I am sorry you are not feeling well. I hope you are better soon.
Megan I hope your dog gets better and then remembers not to chase sticks.

I got up at 9:30 this morning to get my Duster 340 in Ocala. I needed to take the rear tires off my 66 Dart to fit on the Duster for the ride home. The cars that I got in this deal are project cars. I will start a thread to tell about how this came about. Anyway I put my floor jack under the Dart and jacked it up. It went up and then came back down and it would not jack again. I think one of the seals in the cylinder went bad. So next I went and got a scissor jack and jacked up the left side. The car moved and the jack fell. I then went and got another scissor jack and jacked up the right side and got the right rear tire off. I went back to the left side and tried to jack it again. The car moved again and it fell of both jacks. I have them in the back yard and the ground isn't perfectly level. I am hoping to get a large garage built in 2012. It should stop this lunacy. I then open the trunk and found the bumper jack. I was going to use that but I didn't have the jack base. Fortunately there was another type of jack in the trunk so I used that and got the tire off. I loaded the tires into the 06 Town & Country. I loaded the tow dolly onto it as well. I get Alexis and Abby up and load them into the van and we leave. I get about five miles from the house and the guy I bought the cars from sends me a text asking if I grabbed the tires and if I could bring lug nuts. I turn around and go back home to get two different size nuts off the cars plus left and right threads because I am not sure what the Duster has. I leave the house again. The car is 120 miles north of Lakeland. I am about 3/4 of the way there and the dolly seems to be noisier than usual. I am five miles from the guys house and notice that one of the dolly tires threw the tread. I ended up leaving the dolly in Ocala with the Duster and brought home the tire and wheel. Basically drove up there for nothing. My day wasn't horrible because I spent it with my girls but it could have been better.

Damn, mouse...that sounds like quite the day..I would've traded a day-long drive for a 13 hour shift here, any day! Especially if it meant spending the day with my daughter!!!!!

Well everyone, it's about 5 til 2, so I gotta shut down the pc. Get things ready to go. Off tomorrow, thank god! I'll see ya's in the morning!!!

Considering that Alexis turns three in January and Abby turns Two two weeks later they took it well until the last half hour. By then they had had enough of riding in the van. It is a good thing a brought a few packages of pop tarts and milk. I enjoyed the girls and they love their daddy. I forgot to mention the Nav system and the DVD player make a huge difference.
