I am lost today....

I kind of got use to getting up every morning, walking out of my camper, greeting my friends goodmorning and going to the racetrack...I am lost, but at least I am cool! Thank goodness.

Something I forgot to post is a HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my Nephew Seth. My completely grown up, mature and responsible Godson. I can't believe it! He actually met up with us at the race this weekend for a few minutes to say hi......



I love you Seth and am so proud of you!

HEY I AM HOME.....

Tap tap...just a quick system check here. I am home. Just rolled in an hour ago from KC....I will be posting some photos later this afternoon and this evening. So for those of you who have PM'd me, emailed me, texted me or whatever....I am HOME!! HI...........

Ron, Kristin and the rolling Turd are safely at home......

The good, the bad and the Ugly....

Take this post title anyway you want to..hehehe.

Some photos from the Sprint Cup race this weekend in Kansas City Kansas:

Trackside Live at the Kansas Speedway with John, Jimmie and Kenny...that Kenny Wallace Cracks me up!

Nationwide Race Photos

These are some of my photos from the NASCAR Nationwide Race in Kansas City Kansas over the weekend.

My offical Raceware

Myself enjoying the Nationwide race. It was incredibly HOT.

Ronnie Boy and Kristin at the Races.

Part of our happy little race family waiting for the bus to arrive to pick us up and take us to cold showers and some AC.

Here I go...

to Kansas City for our NASCAR race weekend. This is the one weekend a year I really look forward to! Especially be cause it is my favorite Driver's "home" track. As I type this...we are just now getting to Lincoln. It's another 4 hours to KC but worth the trip to experience the whole NASCAR feel.

Ronnie and I in the big Rolling Turd (aka the Long Dong Wagon). I'll post some photos later today when I have a chance to take some. Right now I just served a sandwich and apples to Ron. OK so the rolling turd has it's advantages. Just walk to the refrigerator and cook away.

Right now, I am trying to keep Ron off the phone. Why is it that everytime we get into a town or city someone calls Ron. Needless to say I will get real worried when he whips out his computer while driving. Our "residential" tour of Lincoln is going good...hehehehe...have I mentioned that Ron gets lost easily??

My best to all of you straight from the Big Rolling Turd.....

Ronnie behind the wheel of the Big Rolling Turd...on the phone. IMAGINE that...

Ronnie being the ever dutiful husband and putting up my Clint Bowyer flag for me...what a dude.....

I am at it again.....

Finding older photos again!

This is my niece Cassidy wearing my hot pads. I have NO idea why this photo cracks me up but it does. I was laughing so hard........look how tiny she is..WOW....our little Cass.

Me with some of our little ducks we raised some years ago. I had the best time watching those little fellas grow up...for some reason they like me alot. It probably has something to do with the fact that I visted their shed.....all the time, but no one knew that...till now :) They reminded me of my Grandpa and Grandma Boschen......


Look at Seth and Sheldon acting so tough!!


Here is SOMETHING you don't see everyday and probably WILL NOT see for a very long time.........FIRST ME in a Colorado Shirt and Michael in a Nebraska Sweatshirt. My Brother in law Michael and I traded shirts and TRUST me we were in Lincoln, Nebraska and after going to the can with this on....I asked for MY SWEATSHIRT back :) This has been what seems like forever ago!!!!!!!!!!



Look at me and my homemade Salsa!! 2004....hol cow!

Here I go again......

More older photos......



This one is of my niece Cassidy with my hot pads on. I have no idea why this photo cracks me up....but man..I was laughing my butt off!!

I CANT STOP....

Finding older photos....

The Stock girls can Handle only ONE drink....BUT it's a big one :)

It is my dear Jessica! The college Freshman. My Sweet Goddaugther....man I love this photo!


I Miss Jim...very very much! Thanks for being a great second Dad!

My very very favorite Wedding photo....so totally not planned...Alicia just kissed me. Another one of those sweet nieces of mine.....Look how little Alicia is...now Andrew gets all my kisses :)

A Kristin kind of day....

The weather was perfect. It was just a plain lovely day today.

I had a wonderful lunch with my pal Rhonda.

I got my new race scanner bought and charged up ready to listen to Kansas Clint next weekend (actually ONE week from today we are heading to KC!).

I got tons of crap done. My list is down to nothing BUT I have tons of scrappin left to get done before the end of the weekend. UGGH.......ok so not as much done as I had hoped, BUT that is ok cause I am a little ahead!

There is something quirky about me. I HATE posting without some sort of photo. Let's see.......

I found this photo of the Richard Childress Racing Boys who are all in the chase for the Sprint Cup......

Home home home again...

from a few days working on the road. I AM GLAD TO not be driving!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.....that is all I have :)

What a trip....

Down memory lane. I stumbled onto a TON of photos I had scanned in and man I had the best time looking through these. Here are a few I thought I would share!

Me (a LONG time ago) getting in Dave Anson's race car. I could NOT stop laughing. This is such a great memory for me.


Is this possible that this is Sheldon Boschen. My Nephew who is now and SOPHOMORE in High and has no hair :)

This photo just CRACKS me up! Dave Anson in these silly damm glasses. OMG.....I remember this night like it was yesterday.


MY VERY Favorite photo ever! Seriously....this is me and my Nephew Seth! Seth is turning HOW old in a week!! Let's just say over 21...HOLY GOOD GOSH!


Cassidy bear...look how small and tiny she was here. WOW...is this really Cass? Yes, it is.....



Where has little Daniel gone. My Nephew Daniel Stock...a much younger version than now.......

Wedding Pictures..

I managed to wrangle up a few wedding photos in celebration of our Wedding Anniversary yesterday:






AND FINALLY......(this is obviously NOT from our wedding) but I DON'T care who you are....that is funny right there!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO.....

US!

17 Wonderful years ago today.

Ron and Kristin Stock were married at Lindsay Holy Family Church in Lindsay Nebraska.

I am going in for some photos......OH lord...I have none. I so have to scan some in!!! Well anyway.....HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to us. WOW holy crap has time just sped by. We have had so many wonderful times together and so many things that I thank GOD I had Ron with me through.

Losing my Dad, losing Grandpa Stock, losing Grandpa Pfeifer...losing so much and so many people that we loved and cared about.

I try to only remember the good stuff...and there is ALOT more good stuff then bad. Being an Aunt and Uncle. Watching these beautiful children grow up in front of us. Being part of our friends and siblings weddings, anniversaries and birthdays.

Then there are auctions. Goin racin. Cheering for the Huskers. Playin pool. Goin bowlin. Hanging out with our friends.....life is good. AND NOTHING can replace all the wonderful memories we have had. We are so blessed and so lucky....

TO HAVE EACH OTHER!!!!

We were a perfect fit and always will be a perfect fit....we are Ron and Kristin.

I have...

What I call a Husker Harvest Days Hangover. Way too much time trapped like a rat at Husker Harvest Days. Man....Monday through Thursday at the same place. Not only did I not leave the Husker Harvest Days site, but I never left our lot. But I can honestly say it sure was nice to get the heck out of there!



I am so tired I can hardly move. I feel like I got hit by a truck! I have been completely out of it all day. It took me 15 minutes to find a Can of Chili for my Nacho's at the Grocery Store....then I spent 10 minutes looking for a pair of pants that were already in my bag.

Thus begins a weekend of recuperating.

Husker Harvest Days

Starts this week and it has been a long day of hard work and a little rain....and a hurt ankle. I fell into a hole in the tent and really really hurt my ankle. Really smart move Kristin......

You probably won't hear much from me this week, as I will be spending the whole week at Husker Harvest Days. Here are a few photos from setting up.

Well.......it over...

The race for the chase and CLINT BOWYER IS IN!!!!!! I love me some Clint.



Good god this was a long day. I have NEVER been through a longer race than this. There was nothing I wanted more than Clint making it in the chase and it is done.

I am soooooo happy for Clint. I am happy for the many Clint Bowyer fans who faithfully cheer for him every week. I am happy for RCR racing and the 07 team who work so hard to keep him racin. I am happy for Clint's family and friends who love and care about him.

These last 10 races are going to rock!

So I prayed. I cheered. I laughed. I hoped and I cried...and Clint made it. That was all I asked for!

How could....

...such a nice and fancy thing cause such a fracious?

OK here is the Story, which MANY of you have heard from me, but if you haven't, here it goes again.

Ron and I owned this wonderful Fifth Wheel Camper that Momma (that's me) so lovingly named Dutchie (again if you know me...this is nothing new..naming stuff). My love affair with Dutchie was deep and strong. So when we decided to sell Dutchie in 2007 after we bought our cabin, I was secretly hoping we didn't get it done.

Here is the beloved Dutchie:




So, following lots of ads and lots of people looking at Dutchie. She didn't sell. So as spring 2008 came. Ron said "Iam going to try and sell the camper again and if it doesn't sell by August, well keep it and take it to the NASCAR race in Kansas City and Husker Harvest Days". Great Life is good......again...I was secretly wishing for a No Sale to keep Dutchie in my life.

THEN ONE HORRID day.....Ron comes in the house and says "Honey I have something to show you" OK when Ron Stock says that followed by, "We are going to have alot of fun with this thing" I am always a little taken aback. So I walk outside to find this enormous Mobile Home sitting in our yard. Of course I am shocked and the first words out of my mouth were "Where the Hell is Dutchie"

WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLll here is where it all went south. "I traded the camper in for this" WHAT!




Now some of you are probably sitting there with your Mouth hanging open thinking "What is wrong with this woman, look at this thing. BUT that is exactly the problem. I am trying to hard to uncomplicate and unclutter my life and then Ron drags home yet ONE MORE THING that I have to clean......

BUT for what it is worth....we will give Ron this much...I didn't want Dutchie either...or for that matter a cabin!

So why am I posting about this today?

Because I am currently taking everything that was in Dutchie and loading it in the Mobile Home for Husker Harvest Days. So far....everything in Dutchie fits in three Cabinets of the "new" one. Oops...did I saya that out loud...shhhhhh don't tell Ron.

Attention one and all...

Michael Phelps has hit Duncan Nebraska.



KIDDING! It's Larry Phelps....well Actually my brother Larry teaching my Nephew Seth to Dive off our Dock yesterday. But I must confess that Larry sure has excellent form. I always knew Larry was a good diver, but now I have proof.

The Judges from Duncan give Larry a 9.0!! Team Boschen advances to the Gold Medal Round...GOD I MISS THE OLYMPICS :)
