Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Cave Dwelling

.
On Saturdays I morph into a cave dweller.

A Football Cave dweller.

I snuggle into my Badger Comforter - - - thank you Janell, Kevin, and Kyle!

Beside me are places to prop my snacks and my all important Football Pick 'Em "bookie" book.

And in my hand, the remote control.

In the football cave, I am in sole possession of the remote control.

Perfect place to see my Badgers run the ball right down the throats of their opponents!!

Maggie said...: You call it a cave I'd call it my nest either way looks like a grand place to be whilst watching the game.
Hope the Badgers won?

Jojo said...: I call it my cocoon and nothing feels better to me that to snuggle in for the weekend. Work has been so hectic lately and the activities have carried over into the weekend so I've missed being able to "shut down." For me it's movie time and I do my best to watch movies all weekend long. Have a cave - that is something to be thankful for!; November 21, 2010 at 6:09 AM
Theresa said...: You look like you are comfy and happy! Love it... ENJOY! Hugs!; November 21, 2010 at 7:30 AM
Ann in the UP said...: Yup! That definitely looks like the command center from which all good Wisconsin mojo is generated!

You and that remote! I'm consumed with envy. The ONLY time I have the remote is when GG is in absentia. That's a little bit west of Beaver Dam.; November 21, 2010 at 8:03 AM
Anonymous said...: Hubby did the cave dweller thing around here yesterday. I've just never succumbed to sporting events, and I don't like that he gets grumpy when watching them as if the entire world is supposed to shut up while he takes in the gnashing sound of football helmets... BE GONE SPORTS! Be gone from my house!; November 21, 2010 at 8:24 AM
kyooty said...: What are you doing in the MANCAVE? And where are your flipflops?; November 21, 2010 at 10:58 AM
Kristin - The Goat said...: It looks like the new place has a perfect spot for you to watch the games. I'm especially happy to see that your dear Badgers whooped those Wolverines! Good Job :)

Pam said...: Did FH agree to take these pics of you? You look cozy in your GLR command center. I don't see TF on the AC that shows up in these FBC pics. I really need reassurance that TF is content in his new WI home.; November 21, 2010 at 1:40 PM
nancygrayce said...: Sunday afternoons, I morph into nap woman.; November 21, 2010 at 2:12 PM
grammy said...: Now that you are not teaching young people, would you consider starting a class for grown and older women on how to gain control of the remote?

I would drive all the way from Florida to Wisconsin to attend class....please, pretty please?????; November 21, 2010 at 2:36 PM
Angie said...: I can't believe how quckly you've got settled there. Does FH have another telly he can watch or is he as football crazy as you are?; November 21, 2010 at 5:54 PM
Debby@Just Breathe said...: Sounds like your perfect dream. You look so comfy and cozy.; November 21, 2010 at 5:55 PM
42N said...: WI rolls, Iowa can't get it done against Ohio State. Come on - on 4th and ten and we can't shut them down? Oh well at least we are bowl elgible. Hope you guys win it all!; November 21, 2010 at 8:20 PM
Tonja said...: Love it! And, may I say that you are looking mighty comfortable there? Enjoy!; November 22, 2010 at 6:34 AM
