Mandi Fortner’s paternal grandmother lives in the Monroe, LA area and the doctor has asked to see the family on Friday to discuss her condition.  It relates to her heart.

Lindsey Vice is set to give birth to their second child tomorrow.  I am hearing noonish.  (TJ is trying to get it done while he is on his lunch break in order to not miss any work!)

I had picked the  MSU Spartans in my bracket and decided to stay with it even though the President did likewise.   I gave serious thought to changing my pick but decided that I really believe MSU will be the eventual winner.

The bigger question – who will win the two mile run, ten mile bike ride, two mile run – Ross or Ryan Hatcher?  (Just picking between those two)  My pick – Betty Clair!  (At least she is much sweeter and way better looking!)

I pray that you will have a great Thursday with Jesus.
