Great news is that Vickey Ritchie was back at Special Olympics Basketball 🏀 practice today, but sadly, now I’m gone for a bit. That part of life is discombobulated but we will be reunited, just like Peaches 🍑 and Herb sings about !

Vickey timed her much needed hiatus with the waxing of the gym floor at Hillsville Elementary School. Coach was quick to point out the shine !

There is nothing that I’m involved with in Carroll County that is more important to me than being the wingman to our Angel 😇 on Earth 🌎.

We have dialed it back on the number of things we are chasing and, in turn, having more energy for the folks that we know enjoy interacting with us !

Keep being awesome, Coach, and I will be back before you know it !

Congratulations to the Slaughter family ! Very kind women and her equally kind Kiddo having a grand time at the State Special Olympics meet !!

Sherry Slaughter is a beacon of light, and her disposition lights up the clubhouse out here at Olde Mill Golf ⛳️.  Haley brightens up a room with her smile, so I’m sure that the return trip from Richmond was an absolute delight.

Welcome 🙏 to Tuesday, June 9, 2026 !

It’s a confusing process to be around for a Sunday afternoon but not have Vickey Ritchie to hang out with. Thankfully, we still have Travis Osborne and his Bible Verse of the Day!

” Gone Fishing 🎣” is the mental sign I envision hanging on the imaginary door 🚪 to Vickey’s office.

  I will have to find a filler for the time, but whatever it is I come up with, it won’t be as fulfilling.

Romans 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Thank you, Brother Osborne !

Have yourself a Blessed Day 🙌
