Some cool write-ups and other interesting things....

Today has been a very busy day and I'm not done yet!  I just got my internet back yesterday and tomorrow I have to head to East Texas to my sisters for the next 5 days!  There's a huge highway sale going on and we have a lot of stuff to sell, so we have to get everything hauled up there and separated out at our spot.  We have to price everything, put the tarp up so we have a shield from the sun, even though it's not hot, I'm still allergic to the sun and can only be in it unprotected for a little bit at a time. So I have to stay in the shade for most of the day.  But this is a sale where people set up their goods on the side of the road (Highway 80) and it starts somewhere in Mississippi my sister said!  This ought to be interesting!  I just hope I can stay away from other peoples things and not end up bringing back more than I'm taking! LOL!!  That's....what I do!! 
So, I talked to my sister (Janet) today and asked her if they had a Starbucks there in Terrill because I couldn't remember......and she said "Yes....you've bought coffee there before"!!  Well.....I forgot....ok?? lol!!  Anyway.....the whole idea of asking about it was so I have a place I can get on the internet for a couple hours, drink me some coffee and update Caseymania!!  So....it looks like it's Starbucks for me.  Hope they don't run me off for taking up residence there for awhile!  Surely not, I'll be drinking their coffee, which is expensive, by the way!  So I'll update yall about how the sale is going and if there's anybody in Texas who wants to come see me, and see what all we have, just come on!!  Some of you Dallas girls I know could come on down to Terrill, it's not very far from there!  Anyway....I'm not sure if I'll get to update daily or not, but just check in from time to time to see if I've updated yet!

Yesterday I came across the Article in the Mineral Wells Index, about Debra James and her two Books made by Fans and her relationships with the twitter fans!  There were several of us mentioned either by Debra or another fan.  It was a fan who actually turned the story in so a few of us got a mention in the newspaper article!  I was so thrilled to see this, and hopefully alot of you have seen it, but for those of you who haven't I will post the link to it below!  It's a really cool read, and I totally enjoyed it!!  Thank you to all the awesome people who contributed for this awesome story!!


"Article in the Mineral Wells Index"

I wanted to talk to yall for a minute about something near and dear to my heart!  I want to start putting together a Christmas Card Exchange List for all who want to be included!  It is great fun to be involved with it, especially when you go to your mailbox anxious to see just where in the world your Christmas Cards are from each day!!  The way it will work is for all who want to be involved, please send me an email to  CEJblues10@gmail.com  stating simply "Please include me in the Christmas Card Exchange" along with your mailing address you want your cards to come to and I will add your name to the list.  I'm thinking we should set the cut-off date at December 1st so I have enough time to get the list fully completed and emailed back to each of you.  You can then print off the list and just mark them off the list as you finish each card.  This is loads of fun and I hope we get alot of fans to participate in this!  I make my own cards at Snapfish.com  and they are so personable and totally what you want to say to everyone.  You add your own pictures to it, and with so many getting their picture with Casey, I would imagine some will be heading to Snapfish to make their own cards as well!!  And on the inside, I always send a copy of my very favorite picture from the whole year of shows I've been to, or just my favorite from anywhere!   Yall don't have to do all the stuff I'm talking about, just a Christmas Card is all that's expected, but I've never been accused of being dull or un-interesting.....lol.....I have to stick my creative hoop-la into everything I do! :D   So whoever is interested please send me an email and I will get the list started!

I'm going to head on out of here and get a few more things done, I have to become an early riser this week, no late nights for me.....geeezzzz.....I'm sure gonna miss my late nights.....but it'll be over soon! :)
I'll leave you all with a picture I never have seen before, but ran across it quite by accident.  It's one taken during Casey's Homecoming and I got it from PaulaMxx but I'm not sure who the actual owner is, but....whoever you are....Thank You very much!!!  This is an awesome shot!!  Until next time......peace and love......
