Scaredy cat...errr I mean dog

So we finally got some much needed rain this morning. It was accompanied by some nice spring thunderstorms. I was sleeping right through it which is pretty unusual for me. Well sleeping until Kaylee woke me up. Kaylee is my 90lb chocolate lab. She was pacing the floor. So I call her up on the bed with me. She proceeds to jump up and lay on my pillow. I'm like oh no your not that is my pillow and i'm going to take advantage of Hannah sleeping and get some more shut eye. Yeah right! So I move the dog and she's practically laying on top of me. By now the storm is going pretty good. We are getting some good lightening strikes too! Well Kaylee starts shaking and panting. She did this through the whole thing. My other dog Chase slept throught it. So did my little girl!

2 faced baby in India

I just read an aritcle about a girl in India with two faces. Apparantly they believe she is the reincarnation of a hindu goddess. This is such a sad story. I can't imagine what people would think of this child in our country. They would see her as disgusting or as strange or odd. But, the people in india are worshiping her. It's amazing how two different countries can have two different views on how things are viewed. I know in our country lots of things are viewed as taboo. We even see our disabled people as abnormal and strange. This is sad especially when a lot of these are normal in the mind but just are different physically. I can only imagine the shame and ridicule this child would experience if she was in the US. It's very very sad. People should stop discriminating against physical abnormalities and look at the inner person. The inner person may be someone you really like and can get along with. You might just meet people with an amazing inner strength. I know I have. I have 2 parents who are disabled and many friends who are disabled. Let me tell you some of them see things in a much different perspective than what an average person would see things. It's kind of nice to see this other view through other people. These are my thoughts for today...

Nascar isn't what it used to be

I used to love watching nascar. I've even attended a couple of races. I've always supported the chevy drivers. I usually root for Gordon or Johnson. Now I just can't seem to even watch a race. It's the same thing every race. No crashes, no fighting, just around and around we go usually with some toyota winning the race. I just can't watch it. It's boring. What happened to nascar? It seems like the winners are easily predicted and everything. I would much rather go to a local track now a days and watch a local racing series. Hmmm.
