Friday Fences & Random 5's

(click on photo to enlarge)

Hurricanes practice @ Lord Botetourt High School. That's my Braden on the far left.

Friday Fences

1) Woke up yesterday morning, grabbed my cuppa coffee and sat at the computer. Logged onto Facebook and read terrible news. A friend from high school passed away over the weekend. We are all in shock and don't know any details. I will miss seeing her posting pictures of her children and her sweet grand baby. She was a kind soul and always there for everyone. I feel awful for her children she leaves behind, the youngest only in 7th grade.

2) Tonight is the high school football game. It's a home game. Taking the boys. It's a social event for them ;)

3) Tomorrow is Braden and Dalton's first football game of the season. We play Franklin County.

4) I have been stuck on level 184 on Candy Crush for weeks now. I think I am just too stupid to pass it at this point. Frustrating.

5) I really need to catch up on my laundry. It's all washed but sitting in baskets in the the basement waiting to be folded and put away. The laundry overwhelms me.

Random Fives

Have a great weekend!

    Great name for the team, the Hurricanes. Hope they live up to their name.

    A sudden death is always very unsettling. Family has a rough road ahead of them.

    A friend that I grew up recently passed away very suddenly. It does make one take stock of blessings. Have a great time at the game. And...please don't take this the wrong way...but do you think there is any correlation between candy crush and the laundry you're behind on? ;)

    I'm so sorry to hear of that sad news, sudden deaths at a too-young age are always hard. I hope the Hurricanes have a great game (and the laundry will always be there when you're ready to tackle it:)

    Hooray for football!
    Tonight is our game 2 for our 15 year old twins on varsity.. pretty excited!
    Very sad about your friend, so young.. her poor family. Thinking of all those who knew her.
    I don't do Candy Crush - it sounds like most of my facebook community is addicted, though!! I don't even know the idea of the game. I'd probably be hooked, too. :)
    Good luck to your football players!

    So sorry to hear about your friend! I found out on facebook a few years ago that my first boyfriend died of a heart attack. It is shocking when friends die so young.

    I am so sorry about your friend!
    It seems that laundry never ends. It never ceases to amaze me the pile of laundry that magically appears after I have finished all of it!

    I'm sorry about your friends. Sudden deaths of people so young are so shocking.

    I hope the Hurricanes win! Football is going on here, too. Altavista plays Randolph Henry tonight. Not sure if we'll go, but I always root for Altavista. :-)

    Tanya,
    I am sorry to hear about your friend. It is hard when someone passes away unexpectedly.

    Good Luck to your boys as they start football season!

    I don't mind laundry and seem to keep caught up with it. At the same time, I am pretty sure your laundry load is much more than mine.

    Must be so exciting to have a son on the team Tanya -- Good luck to his team this season.

    Laundry -- tell me about it. I always hang it out so it takes twice as long. :)

    Thanks for sharing at R5F this week. xo

    It is tough learning that a friend who is your age has passed away. It feels too close to home.

    Enjoy the football game!

    You must be so proud of Braden. That's a great team shot! I'm so sorry to hear your high school friend died. That kind of news is sobering. Life is so fragile and precious. Well, I'm stuck on level 57 of Candy Crush, so you're doing far better than I am!
