I've heard the song from Alan...I have the CD It is a great one as well, but what else do you expect from Alan? LOL. It is a great song. I like his SIssy Song. I find it really sad. Though he puts great emotion into the song. Redneck Girl...you copying me? LOL. The CD comes out I think in October sometime.

You're welcome, Daisy

Ding dang it! I can't believe that John could be so close to me and yet I didn't know about it until afterwards! The one time he finally comes to my state, I don't hear about it until after the fact - first heard it from someone at work about seeing him a few days after the event then come on here and see it again. Sadly ironic how life works sometimes. . . Congrats Buzz 17 on getting his autograph and the cars! Glad you got to go and looks like you had a fun time! I hope all that went had a good time.

LOL Roger...what a great analogy ol' Waylon made there! Almost makes me feel bad for ol' Hughie Hogg...almost being the key word.

????

Know how that is Daisy.

Thanks Redneck Girl for the lyrics...and sadly the whole lyrics and song rings true to today's world. I thought that was how it went, but wasn't quite sure off the top of my head. Thanks! Toby's great as is Alan Jackson

I think after over twenty-four thousand posts, that well know you now...with or without an introduction. Though I am glad to finally get to read your introduction.

I have heard the song a few times and seen the video for the first time this morning. I like the song, but would like to hear it again to listen into more all that it has to say. Wasn't a fan of the video - it was just something different. But do like the song and the tune behind the song. Am a big Toby Keith fan and I can picture myself buying the album when it is out to buy in another month or two. As I have all of his other albums...well most of them. I don't have his Blue Moon CD. You are very right...Toby is surely not afraid to speak his mind or to say it as it is. You can count on Toby.

You forgot? Hmmmmm, very unlikely excuse. LOL.

OK Daisy, you have over twenty-four thousand posts...wayyyyyyyyyyyy more than I do and I've been here longer (I think), and you are just now getting around to introducing yourself? Sorry Daisy, don't get mad at me...I just had to ask.

Days Go By - Keith Urban (I know it doesn't exactly match perfectly, but I had to get in a Keith Urban song )

Sorry to say this Daisy, but you're missing out. My opinion of course.

I am listening to Kenny Chesney's No Shirt, No Shoes, No Problem CD...what an amazing CD -as always with him. But the whole album is just so relaxing to me for some reason, it also reminds me of living in my first apartment in Oklahoma for some reason or another...I bought the album while I was living there so maybe that is it. But as I said, the whole album is filled with such great music, very relaxing to me. The last song on the album, "I can't go there" is sung with Tim McGraw...the song gives me goosebumps each time I hear it. Tim has such a haunty voice in it, he does the song great as does Kenny. They put a lot of emotion into the song. Anyone else hear the album? What you think?

I have most of their albums or several of their albums. Guess I don't know on the top of my head how many they do have out and how many I do have, but I do have several of their albums and do intend on getting their album that is coming out in September. So at least we have those to listen to.

One Step Up - Kenny Chesney

"As Bo would say," Kristy smiles at Daisy, "sure thing, cuz."

"Be with you when you tell them," Kristy says, shrugging, "if you want me to. If not, I am sure you will do fine and that they will eventually understand. You know how they are."

Kristy nods while she watches the familiar scenery flash by her, while her thoughts flash back to the past. Of when she had once lived in Atlanta, where the fear and pain had began at shortly after her wedding. Of the reason why she had fled from Atlanta with her two children in attempt to rescue them from their own father. It has been a couple of years since she had seen Trevor, but everytime she comes to Atlanta, her mind rewinds back to the past and to worry of running into him. If he was still in Atlanta and saw her... "That'll be good, Daisy," she averts her attention back to the present and what Daisy had said, "I can be there if you want me to."

"That's the hard part right now. It'd be better if you were married already at least to tell Jesse and the boys," Kristy sighs, "well what I did was I invited mom and William and his two sons out to dinner with Trevor," chills go down her back at mentioning his name again, "and told them then. It probably wasn't the best way to do it, but thought that was the best way to do it without Dylan and Wade killing Trevor. Looking back on it, I should have done it at home and allowed them to kill him." She pauses, smiling at Daisy, "But seriously, it'd be best to be upfront and tell them as soon as possible. Get it out of the way and allow them to adjust and get ready for the change and everything."

Taking a hand off of the steering wheel, Kristy places it on top of Daisy's hand for support. "Look something could happen, but something could happen while we go to Atlanta too. Sometimes you have to go with what you have and pray for the best and do the best to take care of yourself and to make the right choices. More likely than not, you will be fine and I will be here for you every step of the way," Kristy states as she takes her hand from Daisy's and puts it back on the wheel, "Trust me, Daisy, if I can do it, so can you. . .especially since you have Enos. I didn't even have that. . .I had Trevor," she goes silent as a shudder rolls through her body at the mention of her ex-husband, someone who she continues to have nightmares over, "but he couldn't care less for Jamie or what the outcome of my pregnancy was. Enos will take care of you and you'll do just fine." "After you get past the first shock and the fear that comes with first finding out," Kristy changes the topic, "you'll be excited and love every minute of it. Picking out names, getting ready for the baby, holding the newborn baby that you helped make, and all the other firsts that come with the baby. You'll be a great mom and I'm sure Enos will be a great dad. And oh boy," Kristy smiles over at Daisy, "Bo and Luke will probably end up mothering the poor baby to death once they get past their shock. Though I'll tell you one thing," she pauses to look back over at Daisy with seriousness, "life will never be the same. I don't say that to scare you, but say it in a good way." She pats Daisy's hand for support once more before turning her full attention onto the road ahead.

Kristy nearly choked on her saliva at Daisy's answer and she shoves the truck to a halt in front of the stop sign to the road that will lead them out of town. Glad for the break and the sign, Kristy glances over at Daisy with mixed emotins racing within her. "Congradulations, Daisy!" she finally comes up with the words to say, "I'm so excited for you and the new future that lies ahead of you. All the many firsts you will witness and the love you will feel and receive from that little bundle of joy. I can't wait to take you shopping for maternity clothes and baby toys and clothes!" She goes silent as her thoughts slowly slow down within her as she takes in how nervous her cousin seems to be sitting besides her. "Look Daisy, I know how nervous and heart wrenching this is probably for you. Especially if it wasn't planned, having to face everyone and tel them all the news. I've been there," Kristy takes a deep breathe as her thoughts fall back to when she had first found out she was pregnant with Jamie all those years ago, of her emotions and the reactions she had recieved. Smiling at Daisy she continues, "Trust me, I've been there. But at least the father to your child is Enos. Someone who is so nice and caring and loving. You know he'll be there for you and for the baby. And you know I will be there for you both as well. I'm not an expert by any means on pregnancy or children, but I do have experience and advice that I could help you with. I'm here for you." Looking forward she slowly turns left to head out of town for Atlanta to allow silence into the car. "What you mean, you think it's Enos'?" she questions, "Does he know?"

Kristy glances over at Daisy once more as she thinks in stunned silence of what Daisy had just said. "A little one running around?" she finally asks, "OK...I don't want to sound dumb, but I also don't want to jump to any wrong conclusions. What little one running around?"
