Bacon
Today is our Christmas spread at work. I always hate'em. I never know what to bring. I usually try to to sign up for soda or chips. I've tried to get them to agree that I'll bring sporks, napkins and coffee, (we get that free in the break room).
Last spread I brought in peppers with cheese and bacon, so thats what I ended up fixing last night. I also ate more than I should have after they were done.

Oh so close
The Lady Tigers basketball team traveled to Mesquite to take on district rivals West Mesquite. The ladies played their hearts out but came up just short losing 59-57. The Tigers were down early but fought back and held a lead until West Mesquite hit a pair of free throws to give the Wranglers a 58-57 lead with 10.2 seconds remaining in the game. The Tigers were unable to get a shot off on the next possession and the Wranglers added one more free throw for the final score. The final score wasn't what the Tigers wanted, but if they keep playing like they did last night there will be many more wins.

Have you finished your Christmas shopping? Less than a week to go. I found a good sale in Canton, but they didn't have what I was looking for.
I ran in the Santa Claws 5K Saturday and got a medal for coming in 1st in my age group. It could also be said that I finished 2nd to last in my age group. It was my fastest so far, 33:34.
The Terrell Lady Tigers travel to West Mesquite tonight for a district game that was initially scheduled for tomorrow.
I added a small album from the Forney vs. Terrell boys basketball game to the Terrell Daily Photo Facebook page. Check out the photos and hit the like button while on the page.

Work to do
Terrell hosted the Jackrabbits from Forney last night and came out on the short end of a 59-57 score. Forney had a 6-0 lead before Terrell got on the scoreboard. The Tigers were down 19-9 with 7:11 left in the half, but a 12-2 run brought the Tigers even at 21 and they led 28-25 at the half. The lead changed hands a few times in the second half with the Tigers biggest lead of 6 points, 54-48 with just over 4:30 left in the game. The Tigers though were unable to hold the lead. The Jackrabbits had a 57-54 lead when Jhrerrod Stiggers hit a 3 pointer to tie the game with 50 seconds remaining. The Jackrabbits held on the to ball the final 50 seconds and Grant Shaw, who finished with 19 points, hit an easy shot with 2.2 seconds left to give the Forney Jackrabbits a 59-57 win. The boys district mark is 0-2.
The Lady Tigers fared better in Forney against the Lady Jackrabbits. They final score was 54-42. The win evens the district record for the ladies at 2-2.

Practical barn
Yesterday I had to show up to the Kaufman County Courthouse for jury duty. If you saw my post yesterday afternoon, you know I didn't get picked. Everyone hates when they get the jury duty notice. Nobody wants to miss work and sit through what could be days in a boring courtroom. I am glad I didn't get picked, but sitting there when they called out the names of those selected made me feel like I was in grade school and they were selecting sides for kickball. I was thinking to myself CALL MY NAME, CALL MY NAME, I don't want to be left out! When they finished calling the jurors and I didn't hear my name, I breathed a sigh of relief and left the courtroom. I didn't want to be on no stinkin jury. Lets hope its another 10 years before I get called again.
Trica has changed the name of her barn series from old barns to barn charm. Not sure this has much charm, but its practical. Visit her site for other barns with charm.
Lady Tigers will battle the Lady Jackrabbits in Forney tonight. Varsity tip off is 7:30. Varsity boys host Forney at the TISD Athletic Complex, tip off is 8PM.

Sometimes a steady hand is needed
This is Ben Gill Park last night. You can see by the burry picture that I didn't have my tripod with me. I usually try to set the camera on a bench or table to steady it, but last night I was out of luck. You can also see how unsteady my hand it by the airplane lights on the right side of the picture.

Abandoned Barn
This barn was a little scary. It was starting to get dark and there were a lot of trees, brush and noises. I got out, got a picture or two and got back in the car.
Visit Bluff Area Daily for more barns.
I think I finally have kicked the cold that has been doggin me since Thanksgiving. I was able to get out and run a little last night. The next race is the 18th in Canton, Tx on the First Monday grounds.

Terrell, Texas Monday Morning Mashup
Todays picture is how I normally feel on Monday morning. This guy is one of the Terrell coaches. I added 77 photos to the Facebook page from Saturday mornings football game.
College football bowl games have been announced. Did your team make it to a bowl? Are you happy with the selections? TCU gets Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl. Not a bad consolation for missing out on the title game. Oklahoma wins the Big 12 Championship game and will play in the Fiesta Bowl against a 4 loss Connecticut team. I bet thats a good game.....
There are a few non BSC bowls that look like they could be good. I like these games:
Cotton- Texas A&M vs. LSU
Capital One- Michigan State vs Alabama
The Terrell boys varsity basketball team made it to the championship game of the Royse City Tournament Saturday night. In the final game, Terrell won the opening tip but had the ball stolen by Red Oak who scored an uncontested lay-up. The Tigers played catch up the remainder of the night. They ended up losing the game 53-47. The guys had a great weekend and their overall record is 5-2. Terrell hosts their own tournament beginning Thursday. It would be nice to see support from the community for the tournament.
The Lady Tigers are at home Tuesday night against North Garland in a non district game. The Lady Tigers have played hard for first year coach Mike Halac and will bring a 5-3 record into the game.
The Social Science Club Christmas tour of homes was held Saturday. I don't know how many tickets were sold, but I would guess it was a success. Each house was decorated for Christmas and each had something unique about it.

A Christmas Carol-Opening night
Thursday night was opening night of the Vagabond Players production of Charles Dickens "A Christmas Carol". The cast did an awesome job, they are all great actors. Jeff Vaughan played Charles Dickens/Ebenezer Scrooge. He was perfect for the part. I was told during the reception that all of the performances are sold out.
The Black Box Theater is located in the back of Books and Crannies in the historic Iris Theater building. Books and Crannies is Kaufman County's oldest and largest bookstore with over 100,000 used books in stock.

Todays picture is from a few days ago when the cold front was moving in. Its a reflection of Moore Ave. in the window of American National Bank. Processed just a wee bit.
It's Monday, back to work for most people. I have been fighting the flu/cold since Thanksgiving, hopefully I am getting over it.

The Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving day was fun. I always check the results, looking for other runners from Terrell. Usually its just Brian and me. I was happy to see 9 runners in the 5k and 7 taking up the 8 mile run. Complete results can be found here.
Why is soccer called a spring sport when practice starts today for the Tigers? Since all schools do not field soccer teams, the alignment is different than other sports. Terrell boys and girls teams will be in 23-4A along with Kaufman, Crandall, Forney, North Forney, Mesquite Poteet, West Mesquite.
Both boys and girls basketball teams are in action Tuesday night. The girls travel to Waxahachie, while the boys host Waxahachie. Tipoff for the boys varsity is 8:00 PM at the complex.
I added an album on the Facebook page and on ihigh.com from the girls game against Poteet.
Thursday night is opening night of "A Christmas Carol" by the Vagabond Players. The play continues on Friday and Saturday at 7:30 and Sunday at 2:00. Contact Books and Crannies for more information and tickets. I am going to the Thursday night performance.

The Pirates, who made it 3 games deep into the playoffs last year, were led by Shanovia Gamblins 31 points . The Tigers recored is 0-1 in District and 3-3 overall. The Lady Tigers will play two games on the road before returning home to play North Garland on Dec. 7th.

Terrell, Texas Monday Morning Mashup
Saturday Saint Cox Dog Resort hosted an open house. The resort has only been open a few days but its looking nice. In addition to boarding dogs, they offer dog training, and goodies for the dogs and dog owners. If you live in the Terrell or Wills Point area and are looking for a place to board your dogs during the holidays give them a call.
The American Music Awards were last night. Nobody really cares who wins awards. Justin Bieber artist of the year....really? People tune in to see the performances. I like most any type of music, but my favorite performance last night was Pink bringing out the old school dance moves, she stole the show. Some of my other favorites were Black Eyed Peas, Ne-Yo, Enrique Iglesias w/Pitbull and Usher.
Does modern rock suck so bad, they have to wheel out Bon Jovi and Santana to perform? They must have a contract that reads they are required to be a guest on every award show. Please no more!
Give a listen to Brielle Pogues new song. Shes a local artist who has a great new song out called 'My Ish Is Hot'. Its on my running playlist.
The Lady Tigers basketball team will have their hands full Tuesday night at the Complex when they host Mesquite Poteet. The Pirates are off to a 6-2 start. The Tigers are off to a 3-2 start. Varsity tipoff is 7:30PM.

I am looking forward to seeing "A Christmas Carol" performed by the Vagabond Players.
Thanksgiving morning Brian and I will be running in the Capital One Bank Dallas YMCA Turkey Trot. We are running the 5K, they also have an 8 mile race. Last year the race had almost 2500 hundred time 5K runners and almost 4500 times 8 mile runners.
Todays temperature is suppose to hit 80 degrees, but race time on Thursday it will be down in the 30s.

Does modern rock suck so bad, they have to wheel out Bon Jovi and Santana to perform? They must have a contract that reads they are required to be a guest on every award show. Please no more!
