So, sister Shelly and her friend Lisa from her work are going to be guest blogger's next week while I'm on Vacation soaking up the sun, (Hopefully not to much!!), eating to much, and relaxing. Hopefully some of my readers will want me back. Although I'm thinking you guys might like Shell and Lisa. Their hilarious!
This is a forward sent from Shelly this am.
Lisa my good friend from work was talking about Michael Phelps this am. She is bored with him and wants someone else to win. He wrote her a letter this am. He responded. She is hilarious! Read below.

Dear Lisa,
I wanted to take time out of my busy schedule here China to reach out to you, your good friend Shelly informed me you were a little upset this morning. I want to give you a little explanation. (That’s just the kinda guy I am.) I can’t help that I am the best swimmer in the world… I have trained for many many, years to become this good and it actually hurts my feelings when I hear that someone is talking smack. I understand you want other people to win or to beat me but I can’t help that. My training has paid off and you should appreciate it and me like every other American. I am really proud of myself for winning all of these medals. My Mom is too, I am sure you can tell, she’s been on tv quite a few times. I hope that you have jumped on the Phelps band wagon now. (even if my teeth are a little jacked up.)
GO USA.
Yours in swimming,
Michael Phelps

Dear Mike Phelps,
I have the utmost respect for you athletes. Competition at your level is an incredible accomplishment…so is eating 12,000 calories a day. I am proud of all the American’s competing and winning their Olympic medals. I do, unfortunately for you, feel like should not have qualified for the 2008 games because of your incredible speed. By breaking every record and winning every gold I get a little bored with it. My mind begins to wander and I think of things like orthodontia, head gears, spacers, etc. Following these games I know you will be busy on the cover of Wheaties and on all the speedo commercials, but I’m offering you an opportunity to compete in the Albertville Games 2009. Competition is for athletes who are brave & strong & willing to have their right hand tied behind their back & use only their left hands. These Games include left hand only gymnastics, volleyball & swimming. I would be more obliged to jump on the Phelps bandwagon if I get to see some struggling occasionally. I guess I prefer the underdogs. Go Poland.
Swimmingly yours,
Lisa
