@UKCoachLawson I think that’s the wrong closet 🤔 Also don’t forget find earrings (or allow time to buy earrings) because you’re probably missing one 😬.
Creating the checklist for my 2:00 plan of attack:.✅ find flip flops.✅ find purse to hide flip flops.✅ gather make-up and wonder if I should just learn how to use camera filters instead .✅ find a dress.✅ find shoes that match the dress .✅ head to Kroger to buy snacks

With @UKsoftball hosting a regional this weekend, I'm putting the title of #BBN's Best Boss on the line. I'll personally deliver donuts to the boss who sends the most employees to John Cropp Stadium on Friday. Turn letters in to the marketing table!

I’m slightly biased here . he’s something special and so is his wife!.
I admire and respect this man more than I can say! Longtime @TVTrojans employee Willard Himes knows our buildings/grounds inside and out! Here, he locates a fiber optic line from TVMS to TVHS that he trenched in 1996. #wearetuskyvalley #tvcampusvision #allschoolsneedawillard

To up the ante for today’s game, we will be following a slightly different style of play… We will play 10 innings AND if at any point, the run differential gets to 4, the score clears and the next inning restarts at 0-0. Gotta compete every inning! #TiltheBattleIsWon.

I’m an overpacker as @Mypool40 can attest too. However, the one time I try and make a conscious effort to pack less, Mother Nature has other ideas. Please get me home today @AmericanAir ! 🙃🤞🏼✈️.

@BrittCerv14, you forgot to mention who you were getting to hang out with 🙄 @gbaalman25, @coachjb_18. Don’t worry @UKCoachLawson I’m sure she’ll get confused for you a couple of times! @UKsoftball.
Guess who gets to hang out in Colorado this week while @UKCoachLawson makes these tough decisions 🙋♀️.

Hey, are you watching Pro softball? If not, you're missing out. Here's a clip of Abbey Cheek from the @Chicago_Bandits making a catch inside of the @CanadianWildSI dugout. Be sure to watch on @FloSoftball and NPFTV.

The overall #1 pick of the 2023 @UKsoftball home run derby was @larrywcash! As Stilwell would say “you’re going to lose” @coachjb_18! Also, we drafted a stellar ATC @nate_benjamin so I think we can keep that back in check!.
@UKCoachLawson Can’t see my name on the board yet so just a reminder @coachjb_18 @UKCoachHimes I still hold one of the first trophies ever from this event. Granted it was over 12 years ago! Son made me go to the cage because he is afraid I’m going to hurt my back; he may be right!
