Orange is the Color

Hey, guess what?

The other day, before life began to end as we know it. I put my name into the hat (so to speak) for a "Bloggy Giveaway". I won and now, Oda Mae is expecting THIS in the mail in a few days.

Now, the reason we chose Tennessee was not because they are the best team or we really like them or anything like that. We chose them because their uniforms were the most orange. Like all good cheerleaders, we are mostly concerned with fashion and how we look. :) Oda Mae looks good in orange.

We'll take pictures when it comes in.

BTW: you should definitely go over to "Bloggy Giveaway" and post comments to win stuff. No shipping or anything!

Uh, ohhhh....

Oda Momma was in a car accident this morning on the way to work. Some fool was not paying attention to what he was doing and ran a red light. (This is not uncommon in downtown Fort Worth.)

The good thing is that Oda Momma is okay. She has some soreness in her neck/shoulder and hand, but hopefully will be fine.

The car (1997 Toyota Corolla w/ nearly 200,000 miles) that was completely payed off was not so fine...

Currently, we're going through the whole "Insurance" process, but I don't have a good feeling. Looks like we may be car shopping next week.

Yep.... "Repairs to 97 TOYOTA COROLLA Details: Vehicle has been deemed a total loss"

Oda Mae's first day of school...

Yes, it came and went. Monday was Oda Mae's first day of "school". Last week you'll remember we visited a local church to check out their parent's day out program. Everything looked good and Oda Mae seemed to enjoy being there, so we signed her up.

Monday morning I packed her lunch...

PB&J, Goldfish Crackers, Apple Slices, Animal Crackers, and Juice.

After a little photo shoot, we said goodbye to Oda Momma and headed out the door. Oda Mae was very excited. When we got there I signed her in and off she went to her class. When she went in she was off into her own little world. I tried to get her to come back and give me a hug and kiss, but she said, "Daaaaaad, GO! You're crampin' my style." I gave her a hug and kiss anyway and told her I'd be back after nite, nite.

All morning I kept waiting for the PDO Director to call me to come get her. Nothing happened. I did however get the house cleaned up and managed to watch a photography video. 1:45 came waaaay too fast. I had to go pick her up.

When I got there she was going potty. When she came out she ran up and gave me a big ol' hug. That was one of the best hugs I've ever had! Her teacher said that she did very well. She didn't cry except while she was asleep. ?????????????????? And she didn't really talk. After her teacher gave her some sweet tarts, I told her to tell her teacher thank you. When she did her teacher said, "That's the first thing she's said all day!" They were also surprised that she is already potty trained. Kudos to us!

All-in-all the first day was a success!

PHOTOHUNTER: PLASTIC

I have a new project that I'm going to start working on. It's called "Photohunter". tnchick.com started the project and apparently it's taking off pretty well. It's an interesting group of people who "hunt" for a different type of photo opportunity every week. My first photo begins this week with PLASTIC.
