Let's see if I can get this out right

Yesterday in my post I talked about a comment I got. I was pretty sure (not 100% because I don't know her well enough) she was kidding, which I said. I didn't mean for it to come off that I was pissed about it because I wasn't. It just got me thinking that I might be coming off as arrogant or that I thought I was better than others because I have posted a lot lately about the 'extras' we have gotten in a time when a lot of the country can't even stay afloat. I really don't like people that think they are better than others because of the amount of money they have or the material things they have and did not want to look like that to anyone. Those of you that have read my blog for a while know I am not like that but I gotta few new folks and didn't want to seem that way. I guess I just worded it all wrong. Sorry Jane.

I will say that I love reading my comments and other people's blogs because it help me really think about the person I am. Whether I need to better myself, play with my kids more, be more grateful for the blessings we do have (health, each other, and security).... I guess it kinda forces me to look in the mirror every so often and decide if I really like the person I am. And that was one of the comments that made me do that.

I really hope that all made some kind of sense.

Oh ya, found out yesterday that if you go down into the pits at the races that there is a dress code. Must wear pants, a shirt with sleeves, and no open toed shoes for safety reasons (which totally makes sense). So while I will still be all rednecked out, it will be just the normal redneck me. Jeans and boots. ;) And let me say this real quick, there is a HUGE difference between redneck and white trash. I am totally redneck but no where near white trash!

And just for the hell of it, here are some cute as shit pictures of Toot and Smiley.

That's the same thing I love about blogs. I love to look into others lives and then often see it reflected in my own...

Yep, redneck and white trash are not the same thing. BTW- I loved your comment in the boat post, "hold my beer and look at this shit!" That's a good one!
