A new day - and a new design!

So, I decided that brilliant poopie green was so not my color ... so today we have a new format here at BSS! I think its an improvement - and rearranging this blog certainly beats cleaning my house!

Saturday mornings - they are the BEST! Its quiet here this morning. Birds chirping, bees buzzing, my cats running and sliding across the floors! Its still that lovely cool before someone turns the furnace up to incinerate!

Our Scout Troop has 3 Eagle Projects in the works today and my hubby has run out to assist with one, my son has gone to another and I'm ummm... cleaning. Yeah... cleaning. Whoop dee doo - that held my attention for about 2 minutes and then I got bored! Try not to act so surprised!

Today we're off to LAX to pick up Mom and her playmate (boyfriend). On the way down we're stopping by Tito's Tacos because we have to! If you're ever in the Culver City area, RUN to Tito's - muy magnifico (2 years of Spanish class - I'm so proud!). Anyway, best tacos and burritos on the planet ... yummmmers! Tito's is for lunch tomorrow. Yup, hubby and I are planning ahead.

Tomorrow is NASCAR. Brickyard 400. We will be glued to the TV as this is one of our favorite races - and well, yes, if its Sunday, its NASCAR at our house! Big supporters of the Hendrick's boys - Jimmie and Jeff, and then we also like Tony Stewart as well. I'm really proud of NASCAR for having a tough policy of expected behavior from their participants - and the drivers that are held to its high standards. Screw up and you're out - its a dream career and for every one driver that screws up the deal, there's 10 more waiting in the wings to fill that spot.

I wish that the NFL, MLB and NBA would have stronger policies and enforce them. It seems there are very few players like Brett Favre and Cal Ripken Jr - players who love the game and remember that they are setting an example for young kids. I guess they are out there, but are overshadowed by the bad boys of the sport which is a real shame.

BTW, is anyone really that excited that Barry Bonds is going to break Hank Aaron's record considering the serious allegations of his steriod use? (No really, you can look just like Mr. Hulk naturally!!! HA!) Will he have an asterisk next to his name in the records book too like Roger Marris? One could only hope I suppose. Oh, and to make sure I include the "home team" ... yo Lakers - you traded the wrong guy. Should have kept Shaq and traded Kobe (its all about me) Bryant! What a tool!

Yup, on BSS, there are sport vents from this frustrated fan's point of view - see, a couch potato has an opinion! LOL! Course, those who know me well, know that I ALWAYS have an opinion! hee hee hee

Okay off to the car wash - hey its cleaning right?

A car wash definitely qualifies as cleaning! I love my daily dose of giggling from you girlfriend. Have a splendid Brickyard day. Hubby has been to that race a few times in his life - it is a good one!
