I was disappointed in the Daytona 500 yesterday. With 5 laps to go, my favorite driver, Dale Earnhardt, Jr was caught up in a crash. Earlier in the race his car was very loose. At one point he said this over the radio to his crew chief Tony Eury Jr., "I hate to be Captain Obvious here, but we're not very good." With 30 or 40 laps to go he managed to get near the front of the pack, only get involved in a multi-car crash. After Junior crashed out of the race, it was nice to see Kevin Harvick win. Junior finished in 32nd place. Oh well, on to California Speedway.
My husband and I went to Lowe's today to pick out new cabinet handles. Our old handles were in need of replacing and they were just ugly. After picking out the handles, we looked at some paint swatches. We hope to repaint our kitchen soon in nice Merlot color, with green and white accents.
I'm never ready for this time of the year, but it has arrived. Wednesday is the start of Lent. Fasting doesn't bother me, the thing that bothers me is no meat on Fridays. Usually after work on Friday nights, my husband and I go out for dinner and I always order something with meat, i.e. steak, beef nachos, etc. So until Easter, it will only be tuna or pasta for me. BOO! I haven't decided what I'm going to give up for Lent this year. I will probably give up the vending machine at work. Every year I give that up and do a good job of avoiding it.
