Today should be a quiet day for me. Hopefully, I'll be able to take these doggies for their walks. If the weather cooperates, I'll walk Pudge and Roy, then Pepper and Riff and finally Taffy. It seems that either inclement weather or hectic scheduling has kept me from too much walking as summer winds down.
It's been enjoyable to watch the mama deer and her two babies most of the summer. They seem to stick to a routine of spending time on our hill each day and wandering over to the field across the street around dusk. I'm not clear on their entire routine, but the dogs let me know when they are nearby or moving around in the woods. So much for peace and quiet out here in the country.
If you keep up with UK Football, you know that we fans are very close right now to pushing the panic button. After many years of feeling like we were heading in the right direction with Rich Brooks, our forward motion seems to be stalling and slowly going into reverse. We had been so hopeful that when Joker Phillips took the reins, our tortoise pace of progress would be propelled to a hare-like speed. Sadly, that has not happened and we are seeing a rough SEC road ahead. I hope Joker and the team are praying for direction and guidance. We fans should be reminded that steady and slow improvement was better than no improvement at all. I also hope our fans will maintain their support through this season. Let's pray for some more of the steady and slow improvement these next games. It's best to be positive and encouraging and remember after all, it's just a game............not like basketball.
I was hoping to see Randall Cobb do a repeat performance of his NFL debut, but I'm afraid I haven't heard much about his second game. I think he was awesome to relate to the reporters questions that he was simply being led by God when he made his record tying 108 yard kickoff return. I'm also keeping an eye on the Bengals rookie quarterback from Texas Christian University in Fort Worth. He's been given an awesome opportunity to lead the struggling franchise just up the road to a vastly improved standing. After last year, the Cincinnati Bengals have no where to go, but up. Good luck to Andy Dalton, as he continues to move this team, slowly and steadily, through their season.
Did I hear correctly that the soap opera, All My Children, is going off the air? I remember watching that during my high school days, college days and when my children were very young. I also remember turning it off for good when the little kindergarten boys I babysat for started having inappropriate lunchtime conversations in my Henderson County kitchen. I understand that Erica Kane kept right on getting married and divorced, and causing all kinds of scandalous scoops in Pine Valley and throughout her viewing audience. Thankfully, for all those who can't live without the diminutive diva, it seems that the soap will more than likely be carried over the internet, however that works.
Finally, as you may have suspected, I did not miss the season premiere of Dancing With The Stars. Amid all the pre-show hype and controversy, I must say, that it all boils down to the performance on the dance floor. The contestants did not disappoint. They obviously were busy working hard and practicing while all the gossip swirled harmlessly around them. Looking forward to a fun season.
Well, I see deer outside my window, so before the dogs begin their yapping, I will close for the day and get us going on our walks. I hope you have a wonderful day. Stay safe, luv, Susan
