A LITTLE FREEZING RAIN HERE IN CH, VIRGINIA RAINED OUT AT GEORGIA TECH
Well we got a little freezing rain overnight however it isn't enough to close or postpone schools here in Colonial Heights. The temperature has climbed just above freezing now so everything that is falling should be just rain. The Virginia basketball game at Georgia Tech last night was postponed due to a leaking roof at Georgia Tech, no makeup date has been set yet, there is no reason for a major university to have a leaking roof at there basketball arena. The UVA baseball team was scheduled to play there 1st game of the season today however that game has been postponed until Saturday because of inclement weather, they will play two tomorrow against Lehigh. The Richmond Renegades will be in Columbus tonight trying to end there 5 game losing streak. The Nascar Sprint Cup Series will be the California Speedway this weekend, the truck and Nationwide series are also there as well. I have posted a link below to the photos Al took at the finial CH girls basketball game of the season against Matoaca. MICKEY

One of the things that my parents have taught me is never listen to other people's expectations. You should live your own life and live up to your own expectations, and those are the only things I really care about it.”
Tiger Woods
The values in your heart
When your world seems frustrating, keep in mind that the most important part of you exists beyond those frustrations. When life feels painful, never forget that the pain, however difficult it may be, is confined to just a small portion of who you truly are.
All around you are things you can see and touch and physically manipulate. They are part of life, but they are by no means all there is.
You cannot hold love in your hand, and yet you know for certain that it exists. You cannot capture joy in a box or an envelope and yet you have no doubt that it is real.
When the outward concerns of life seem to be overwhelming, remind yourself, there's more. There is so very much more to living and being than those things you can see and hear, taste and smell, touch and possess.
Even those losses and disappointments that feel big and burdensome, are small in comparison to all the beautiful, positive possibilities living within you. Look beyond the noisy, superficial distractions and remember the miracle of your existence.
Live your life around the values in your heart. And those everyday pains and nuisances will lose their power to bring you down.

what do you expect from a bunch of geeky engineers. they could tell you how to fix a leak but they couldn't actually do it.
i know of one teacher who woke up at 5:55 and before even getting out of bed cut channel 12 on !! i didn't hear any cussing as i was going downstairs to do my workout but what i heard didn't sound like a happy camper!!
tornado update.... i stated monday that the tornado missed us by 8 miles. but when i went to get my car tags this morning i saw several houses that were completely leveled that were only 1.5 miles away.
8 miles was close 1.5 is way too close!! and they laughted at you for having your shoes on!!!
Yeah about the shoes but he was watching the races while his family was in the closet
but he had his shoes on in case he had to walk out the rubble!!!
