You feeling lucky? Are you?

Luck is in the air as we shake off winter and celebrate the beginning of spring round here. An unexpected but welcome offer came my way this week. Max is turning four and I hope to get his birthday party pics up soon, we had it a week early. We head of for spring break in a couple of days, a quick stop at the Mother in laws mountain abode and then the kids and I will pile in with my parental units and nephew and go pay a visit to my sister in California with a stop at Legoland.

I even have high hopes of winning a contest or two in the near future. Seriously my NCAA brackets rock, or should I say rawk, they are that good. I have them entered in no less than three places. If you want to enter our bracket on FB, just follow the link.

Seems some other bloggers are feeling the need to give away too. For instance Mocha Momma is giving away a fabulous prize if you leave your dumbest stunt in the comments. Watch out for turfdad's comment, just be glad you didn't see the orginal post on that one. I nearly had to gouge my eyes out, good thing I was wearing PPE. ; )

Wifey is also giving away some very pretty souvenirs from her cruise to the Meditteran which she got to take to for the travel channel. If she weren't so dad gum likeable I might just be jealous of her. I think she should give job advice as well, really how does one get paid for that. Don't worry I don't think it will change her since she is a former star of TLC's A Wedding Story.

Have fun folks!

It's tough being a...

At church we are doing a Beth Moore Study on the book of Esther. I love Beth Moore studies, because I learn so much and she is so dad gum engaging. (Yes, I realize I just used dad gum in a sentence.) I remember the first time I was going to watch the video that went with it and I took one look at her and thought she would be stuck up church lady type. (I don't know why, maybe I was in a bad mood.) However I was immediately engaged by her down to earth style and her enthusiasm. One of my favorite parts of this series so far is that every week she asks a you to fill in the blanks of this sentence.

It is tough being a woman when ______.
or
It is tough being a woman in a world where _______.

She then reads some responses during the video portion. Some are funny some and some make you cry.

I thought this would be a fun exercise for us. So my question today is how would you fill in that blank? Men, drop the Whoa part of women okay? I throw my answer in the comments, but please post your answer and then look at the other comments.
