January is already half way over, and I can't believe it!
I always make resolutions. I'm a list kind of person, and it helps me to see things in black and white that need to be accomplished. :)
In addition to continuing to work on all of my stuff from 2008, I tried to either add a few or emphasize some more this year! So, in the spirit of my wanting to do more volunteering, yet never seeming to be able to find the time to do so, I ran with this opportunity!
I have always had a desire to volunteer for the Special Olympics! To have the opportunity to work with individuals that are competing completely just for fun, with 100% pureness of spirit about them... how could anyone ask for a better day! So, fortunately, Adam's office was given the opportunity to volunteer, and I grabbed the spot!
My "job" for the morning... to cheer on some fantastic bowling! Yep... I was the team captain of 2 teams bowling it out for the Gold, Silver, and Bronze. My job was to make sure everyone bowled at the right time, and to scream, yell, high-five, and hug it out on every single bowl! BEST job ever!!
*Ok, so I try not to pick favorites... BUT... This is E.J. and I was in love from the start! He was the one that after every single bowl, he would turn around and hug me to the point that he picked me up and bounced me around! :) He double high-fived me once, and it literally almost knocked me to the ground! FUN!!
*They were seriously WAY better bowlers than I have EVER been!
*This was part of my crew! All of them were so awesome! Congratulations guys!

Awesome Kellye! Good karma all around.
Fantastic!!! Woo hoo Kellye! You are such an inspiration!
Sounds like fun! Andrew has an uncle with Downs Syndrome and he has really loved SO. Of course, up here in Vermont, Andrew has helped with skiing Special Olympics in cold weather. You Georgians know how to whoop it up indoors!
That looks great. Back when I used to have more free time, one of my favorite things to do was volunteer with a group that did horseback physical therapy for kids with a variety of developmental disabilities
That is so cool you did that and allocated your free time to doing something for someone else. I have been very involved with Special School District the last year and nothing is more rewarding than giving back.
Has anyone tried homeopathic growth hormone oral spray? I hear it's legal for over the counter sales and is very gentle on the system.
