3 1/2 hrs. and finally RIC FLAIR

What? You don't know who RIC FLAIR is? "The Nature Boy"? Neither did I until a week ago. Unfortunately, my 9 year old son does. He is an "older" WWE Wrestler and because I am "Mother of the Year" I sat in a Walmart line for 3 1/2 hours so my kids could meet him and have one minute of face time with this "crazy big biceps" man. I even got my own signed autograph (which I used as a table protector for gluing crafts). This story gets even better when I tell you that I wasn't wearing any make-up and I was wearing very comfortable clothes (because I came prepared to sit on the germ infested floor of Walmart). Of course, as with all unprepared moments there must be a TV crew there and they just happened to interview the lady in front of me in line who almost cried as she spoke of her idol, Ric Flair. Are you kidding me? I felt like a caged animal- no where to run so I position myself right behind her and hoped the kids got on the 11 o'clock news but that I'd be blocked. Well, we got on the news alright. Stranger Lady, ME, Lane and Paige's hand. (Paige was crying that she didn't get on until she realized that her hand did.) Of course no one stays up to watch the 11 o'clock news... except for my friends. UGH!

Hopefully, I can download the photo off my camera. It's not working right now.

Seriously, you're the coolest mom, evah!!! Cuz there's no way I'd sit on a dirty Walmart floor to see some wrestler guy :-)

Love the jewelry! We need more pictures and prices please...
