Me?  I think I missed dinner on Father's Day, but that's about it..  oh, and

Christmas at my Granddaddy's, but he doesn't know which kid I belong to anyhow.

Oh, wait,  I went boating the day that my newlywed husband moved into my house, when
I got home from a funfilled day, he was moved in.  LOL!!!  - but that doesn't really count....



I've been boating since 1999 and cannot think of anything more than skipping school or
work to boat. 


See we're not all narcissitic, and I am an avid boater.

And moving my family to Knoxville wasn't "all about boating"
