‘The Race’

Well, I’m breathing today, so it is another day ahead of me.  Sometimes it’s fun just to see what kind of things I will, uh….forget, or what i’ll do today;  like when I was reading my book the other night, and I looked down and saw a white ‘thing’ on my shirt.  I started wondering what it was.  Was it a part of my shirt? Then I remembered, ‘Oh! That’s my bookmark! Duh!’

That reminds me of when I was young.  How could I forget ‘The Race’? Many years ago, I was racing some neighborhood kids through our yards.  I got a good jump-start and was nearing the end, when I looked back to see how far ahead I was.  I turned around, and the next thing I know, I’m on the ground, bleeding from my split mouth.
Here’s a little proverb: When you race, watch out for clotheslines.  Yes, the clothesline caught me in my mouth! Ouch! I didn’t get stitches, but man, that hurt!

So, that’s basically what these once-a-week blogs will contain: funny things, or a part of my childhood or opinions.  Well, see ya next week.
