This is my new blog! I was so excited when I got it, but i couldn't decide what 2 call it. My mom, my brother and I were thinking of names when we were eating lunch today.
My mom wanted "Tater Tot's Thots" but i don't like (haven't ever really) liked the name Tater Tot and it is now one of my teammate's names. My brother wanted something to do with UP (the movie) -"Doug Doesn't Like Squirrels". I was thinking, why doesn't it be really random? I sent this email once and i was thinking "Harold Isn't REALLY A Jedi" then i thought, maybe "Addicted To Sunflower Seeds" because my whole softball team (love you guys!) eats them ALL the time.
Then. . . i got my name. "Plane Proof House"! When my family was in Denver, Colorado in July 2008, my brother was afraid to go on a roller coaster in Elitch Gardens and my mom said not to live your life being afraid and that there was a bigger chance of a plane falling on your house than being hurt on a roller coaster. So I said, "Then you spend all your money on a plane proof house!!" Later I added,"Then after you spent all your money on a plane-proof house, you won't have any money for food and water and then you die and you don't get to see a plane fall on your house and it not get demolished!" It was really funny and it actually is symbolic, too!!
If you live in a plane proof house, then you won't ever take any chances. Not taking chances is no fun!! So you need to leave your plane proof house and not live your life being afraid of roller coasters. . . or anything else except the things that you can be afraid of, like snakes (that's a whole other story).

You are very wise for your age. I keep using The Finding Nemo character, Dory, for my encouragement to not be afraid. "If you never do anything, you never do anything." I love you a lot. I also have a blog, but it won't be near as entertaining as yours I am sure. It is mpeggie.blogspot.com.
ReplyDeleteThis is great. I'm excited to keep up with you and maybe I'll do better at mine.
ReplyDeleteOh I've got you some really cool things here. Can't wait to give it to you
So I became a follower but it has my maiden name on it. It won't let me change it. Not to worry there are not many Lana's in the world so its me
ReplyDeleteI love your blog. What an ingenious name and pretty smart, I'd say, of you to come up with something so unique and random! I think Eleanor Roosevelt once said "Do one thing every day that scares you." And someone said "Progress always involves risks. You can't steal second base and keep your foot on first." Pretty good words to live by.
ReplyDeleteThe kids saw a big, long black snake in the front flower garden yesterday. I think that means good luck. We found a big copperhead or rattle snake in the edge of the woods out back but didn't kill it. Remember that snakes have a purpose, too (other than to bite you!!).
The softball pics are great. Hope to see you play in person soon.
Love you,
