A Grand entrance to 2009


Good morning 2009. So far I like this year. It's a good one. Hope it goes slow.
So started fresh in 09, we are down to 1 puppy. Kasey is no longer with us. She is now a Florida dog. Sad day in the Johnson house. But as a responsible mother, I know no matter how sad it was giving her up, I know it was the best thing for her. I was promised to get monthly emails of pictures of her playing on the beach! I'm so happy for her, I tried to get them to take me too, but they denied!! Bummer.
So Leah got on my case for not writin a blog about our New Years event. So here it is in a short version. We decided to take a trip to Nashville Tn, for the evening. The trip was drama from the start of the planning. The original crew was "The Johnson's, The Burns and The Flener's". Well I was to find a room on a short notice, what to do? How many beds? Two, but we have 3 couples, that's 6 people but only two beds. Damn. We have 6 dogs between us all and a NO PETS hotel room. Damn. Thank you Pine Hill Kennels, you saved our Grand ENtrAnce to 2009. SO… Now what to wear? We will just go to the mall when we get off. Mall Closed. Damn. Finally dressed, dogs in the kennels, Amanda and Derek at my house waitin on my better half, Andrew calls. He wants to go. 7 people in a two bedroom, no pets hotel. Damn. Everyone ready to leave, Leah calls. They are not going now. Damn, she was my dress partner. Never mind they are going. On the road we went. Check in, unload cars, call shuttle, $20 dollar two-way cab ride, $20 entry fee to an overcrowded 20min stay in a hole in the wall joint Lonnie's, $6 for 2 beers, $3 for one more and we are on our way. Where to go next? Damn, Yelonda is not 21. Wild horse here we come. $50 dollar entry fee, pissed off husband for paying $50 dollars, ordered drinks, damn that's expensive, ordered a few more, counseled a crying wife in the bathroom, counseled a angry husband at our table, ordered a drink, don't care how much they are anymore- they were good. Made trip to bathroom 1000 times with Leah, we peed a lot. She told me not to break the seal, I did. Damn. Meet a bartender named Clay, he didn't care that my husbands name was Clay still no free drinks. A few pictures with a horse. Bust a move on the dance floor. Make fun of girls for dancing stupid. Get in a fight with girls for flirtin with our men. YOUR OUT OF HERE (all baseball style too, hands and all). Almost get in another fight with the same girl on the street. Find a weave, Leah tries to give it to some black girl, it wasn't hers. So she puts it in her purse. 3 pieces of pizza, a piece of cherry cheesecake. Made it thru the restaurant before Leah puked. A mad Leah because no one would share there drinks, because she just threw up. We leave. A hike with no shoes to printer's alley. A 10 min wait on our two-way taxi. A mad husband because he forgot to eat his cherry cheesecake. Pile 7 people in a 2 bedroom NO PETS hotel room. Take care of Clay after throw up session. Snooze. Wake up gone by check out time. McDonalds. Missed turn. Gas station to fix Anthony's truck cause turn around was unsuccessful. $2 for Gatorade. 30 min talk about how good our dogs were and we are home.
A great trip to say the least. A empty wallet, a weave, a few missed phone calls, and a hang over = a Happy New Year's eve!
Until next time peace, love n a little Beyonce to lift your spirits.
