Congratulations!!

I have been working on organizing a field trip for the two homeschooling groups we are involved with. We are going to a dairy farm!!! The Johnston Family Dairy Farm!! You should check them out at www.johnstonfamilyfarm.com. They are located in Newborn, GA, and they bottle their own milk produced on their own farm by their own cows. How cool is that? We were supposed to go on a field trip to the farm on March 17, which happens to be St. Patrick's Day. We were going to all wear green or dress up as cows or roosters or pigs. Fun stuff like that, ya know. But alas, we have had to change the date of the field trip to March 18, which is not St. Patrick's Day. That is not to say that we can't still wear green; this is a free country, after all. But it just won't be the same. Anywho, the REASON we have to change the date of the field trip is because the farm is in the finals for the TASTE OF GEORGIA competition, which I think must be a pretty big deal for a farm. Their whole milk is in the finals. I sure hope they win after we had to change the field trip and all. Go and bring home that trophy (or ribbon, or plaque, or cow statue) Johnston Family Farms!! We'll see y'all the next day!!

In other news, my 2001 Ford Expedition is back in the shop. Nothing serious, I hope, but that stupid, yellow CHECK ENGINE SOON light is on again, for, like, the 3rd time in 6 weeks. Our mechanic, Todd, gets it fixed, I drive it for a couple of days, and the fool light comes back on. I hate computers!! Well, I don't hate all computers. I am quite fond of the computer whose keys I am currently stroking. This wonderful, handy, reliable, and sleek computer (sorry, I have to sweet talk it every once in a while to keep it happy). But I AM NOT fond of my Expedition's computer because it keeps YELLING at me with that silly yellow light. Anyway, I am stuck at home today because I don't have a ride. It's probably a good thing that I'm stuck at home, because I am forced to do things I would not otherwise do because I'd be gone, like clean a toilet, or make bread, or organize my homeschooling books. So, I guess I'll get off my awesome, sweet, and attractive computer now and grab a toilet brush.
Blessings.
