Now that both of my teams are out of the playoffs, the Titans never even made it to the playoffs and the Cardnials lost this wekend I am now onboard the Brett farve bandwagon and I hope to see a Vikings and Jets Super Bowl this year. My good friend Dale is sending me a Vikings hat to wear and I will be large and loud in my support of the Minnesota Vikings.

It seems that I am the last human that has not joined Face Book. I have resisted this fad as long as I can, I need help to keep myself busy and not get involved with mafia crap and farm this and guess that. I have just embraced the internet and really do not want my life as an open book to all of my “friends” that have added me on face book. I will not join it this week and I hope to have the urge under control for the rest of my life, but I may need a help group to get me past the urge to join.

While at work today I saw the very first sign for the many pumpkin farms in this area, and I can not wait to take David to let him pick out his pumpkin for our porch jack-o-lantern. It has become a family trip and party to pick the correct pumpkin and to get it carved and set up on the porch, just right. I like to pick one smaller pumpkin to make us some pies and we will get this done on this trip too. I love this time of year, the weather has cooled off and we have so much to do this time of year.

The biggest question that I have been asked this week is do you feel old now that you have turned 50? The most correct response is YES. I do not really feel any different than I did on Saturday, but when you hit a  milestone in your life you are bound to be a little different, and I guess that makes me feel a little old. I do not see a huge change in my life at this stage but I am open to all possibilities at this point. Now I have set my sights on the second half of my life and look out world, here comes Abby!

Yesterday would of been my sisters 49th birthday, and she is in my thoughts today. Well she is always in the back of my mind but today she is in the front, and I miss her a lot. We could always talk and I miss that a lot. She was the rock who made my life much easier to take. Being the oldest is a tough job and my two little sisters made that a whole lot easier for me to deal with. Happy birthday Robin I know that you atre still watching over me.
