So yesterday was the last day of school before Christmas break and the teachers had their luncheon. We all had one of those gift exchange things where you can take someone else's gift so many times.
One of our coaches used to tour with George Straight in some way or another, and he's got a ton of stuff from those days. Anyway, he had a tour jacket. Kinda like a Carhart jacket with the tour logo stitched on back.
Well, it took some doings, but I snagged that jacket. One of my former students is a George Straight fanatic and I hope he likes it. I am giving it to him for Christmas.
Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do...
I went to get my boy at the airport after that. He's blown up the engine on his car, which we thought would happen sooner or later. I am just glad it didn't happen between here and Amarillo. Awful lonely out there on 287. I was frettin heavy about what we were going to do about another car till he graduates, but when I got home, his dad, who has never helped us with cars in any way, volunteered to buy the boy a NEW CAR.
I felt like we were on The Price Is Right.
Anyway, if anyone has a new car to recommend in the 16k range, we're listening.
Looks like a good Christmas after all.
Now, if I can survive the inlaws... :shock:
