Frankly Friday

This is the first entry in a series of Friday entries called "Frankly Friday". It  will be posts about, hmmm, well...nothing in particular and everything in general. There may be only one or two entries per Friday or multiple entries. It all depends on YOU!  So, who's ready for some random cohesiveness???
Football
A big congratulations to the UNC-Tarheels who clinched their first ACC win last night in Blacksburg, VA. They took on the #13 Hokies and brought home what had been an elusive conference win. I have to admit - they had me worried in the first quarter, but they rallied and kept fighting. Special shout outs: #64 - Jonathan Cooper COOOOOP- I saw you putting in work, Baby Boi! Keep holding them back and knocking them down. Much love. #54 Bruce Carter - BRRUUUCCCEEE! That dude thought he was gonna sneak by you, huh? NOT! #8Greg Little - Do you practice those spin moves or do they come naturally? Sorry, I'm not sure of this player's name/number but to the punter who became a linebacker last night - You betta do it, son! You neatly laid that hokie out! Way to hold him! And to #11 Casey Barth - great kicks! When the pressue was on (game tied 17-17) , you stepped up and made sure that an OT session was not necessary.
Good job, gentleman. Enjoy the bye week because on 11/7 you have another task - march on down 15-501 and handle those uprights and own that scoreboard, fellas!

Look before you eat...

Hello folks! This is NOT the Super Bowl party snack post. (check back tomorrow for that one). But it is related to food (smile) This post is a cautionary tale about food - specifically MAKE SURE YOU CHECK YOUR FOOD BEFORE YOU EAT IT! A friend and coworker of mine visited an establishment who was offering FREE bagels today. How wonderful! I really enjoy bagels from this particular restaurant. And who doesn't like. FREE, right?Well, imagine her surprise when she reached into her a bag for delightful wheel of bready goodness and finds a little something extra: The heck is THAT??!?!?!! What do you think this something extra is? (no, I'm not talking about the raisin) Look closely at the top of the bagel. Do you see those tawny colored rope-y looking things? I was hoping it was a piece of the paper bag the company put her FREE bagels in. But honestly, she I both had the same thought - "It looks like strands of WEAVE/BRAID EXTENSIONS!!!" GASP! My buddy was not ...

You Don't Have To be so mean

Someone asked me the other day " hey, don't you ever get tired of being so happy and positive all the time? How can you be so NICE?" I was thrown! Ok maybe not completely since I've heard a little about this before. "You always have a smile on your face...you're so happy...you're so NICE to EVERYBODY...I really like talking to you...thank you for being so kind...-it's rare" Even though I've heard these comments before, it still surprises me a little. Not that people think I'm nice but that so many people experience the opposite - often enough that they are shocked enough to comment. Makes you, ok me, wonder why are so many people not nice? Just plain old mean? How do they get that way? Can't make me believe that people are born that way...hmm course i have a seen pictures of newborn babies with some pretty mean mugs. Looking like they've been here before and experienced all the atrocities of life ALREADY!  But really - why?  ...

Deal Me In

A while back, I posted about being held hostage. See, that article was about...well I don't want to go into too much detail in case you haven't had a chance to read it yet (hint hint). Suffice it to say it was about being in a situation you'd rather not be in. Maybe you've been super fortunate not to have found yourself in a situation like that...until now. And who is your hostage taker? Say hello to COVID-19...UGH!  This virus has spread so rapidly and doesn't discriminate - everyone is a potential victim or carrier/transmitter. The best way to slow down what has become a pandemic is to limit exposure. To what? Well basically PEOPLE! Schools are closed, most businesses are closed - unless they are essential (hospitals, supermarkets, pharmacies...) restaurants are open but only for takeout or delivery. No movie theater, no malls, no parties. WE are basically on restriction! House arrest without the ankle monitors... If you're married/partnered - ok so maybe ...
