Keep Putting One Flip-Flop In Front Of Another~~

My saying for the month of May..."keep putting one flip-flop in front of the other!"

The first two weeks of May have included finishing up my subsitute teaching duties for Coweta Public Schools, booking over 50 children in my private swimming lessons classes, getting all announcements out, and formulating a graduation celebration for my baby boy, Forrest's high school graduation, planning my daughter Skylar's beautiful, chic barn wedding, (which included making by hand most every decoration and centerpeice, and physically helping to clean and de-winterize my sister's ranch)continuing my duties as babysitter for my three precious grandchildren which are all under the age of 5, and last but not least, launching my book, Red Dirt Rocker!

Like I said...my mantra for springtime, "one flip-flop in front of the other!!"  I cannot wait for our vacation in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado come the end of July.  Hot springs soaking and mindless staring at gorgeous mountain scenery is much needed for this mama/ga-ga/sub-teacher/swim instructor/party planner/author.

Keep on keepin' on all!

Jody

  2. I just wanted to say I love your blog and I can't wait to share ideas this summer. I want to thank you again for the book and the signatures. I've noticed areas of the pages where they we're creased. Do you know why? I like it, it's got so much personality from the Lake, to the pencil mark's inside and more! I loved the book, it made me laugh, tear up and more. I talked to the kids after reading it and explained how close you are with your children. I bet it's a lot of work. I'd like some pointers =) Anyhow, I'll let you know when I'm finished with the review.

    God Bless
