Yes, you know it had to happen. We are going to write poems about the mint wreath! Can't write poetry? Don't worry...neither can I, which is why I'm glad that I'm not competing in this contest because I would lose badly. See, here's what I would write.... My stripes are red. My centers are white. I'm over 6 years old, so it's best not to bite. Surely.....SURELY you can do better than that. You can write anything....free verse, haiku, limerick, epic.....whatever!!! Just have fun, and e-mail it to me ( kellieann@adelgren.com ) by 10:00 pm central time Monday, November 19, 2007. I will, without saying anyone's names, read the poems to Annaleigh, Harrison, Big D and Indiana Mimi to judge them, and then I will award a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. OK, so now it's time for a BONUS entry that I'd like to call.... The Wild Side of Indiana Mimi Indiana Mimi is my mom, and she is W-I-L-D!!!! Don't let her grandmotherly looks fool ya'.
This is the image she tries to maintain. Quiet, peaceful, calm. But I know her, and I know better.
See? She totes a whip! But with a name like 'Indiana Mimi', what did you expect? She uses our computer everyday for about 30 minutes or so. I got to wondering, what exactly does Indiana Mimi and her wild self do on our computer? So, unbeknowst to her, I photographed her activity.
So far, so good. She's just reading an extraordinarily entertaining blog. I'm ok with this.
Another entertaining blog.
Hmmmm...what's this? I think she's finding out what she needs to bring with her to renew her drivers license next month. Sneaky, Mimi, sneaky.
Reading the obituaries....or just pretending to. She's so tricky.
Uh-oh....what's this? Indiana Mimi is watching You Tube?!? Who is that anyway? Oh...Paul Simon. And look, someone stuck the cursor right between his eyes. It had to be Mimi....that naughty little grandma!
Now she's really getting edgy and moving onto Simon & Garfunkel. Wait...let me try to hear what they are singing.....something about a bridge...and...and troubled water. Wow....that is deep.
MIMI!!!!.....Just WHAT are you watching now? Wait a minute....that looks like...no, it couldn't be! Yes, it is! It's BO BICE! Mimi is watching Bo Bice's new "Witness" video on You Tube. Wait....Mimi...no, don't do that. People I cannot even photograph what is happening now, but Mimi is getting up and DANCING to Bo Bice's music. She's doing "the worm" right now across the floor. I MUST put a stop to this! Catch ya' later....if Indiana Mimi doesn't choke me with her whip. DID YOU SEE THE WREATH??? (The real one...not the one on the computer screen picture.) E-mail me at kellieann@adelgren.com for your points, and if I don't get 3 responses within the next hour or so, I will not be able to update for a few days. |
