When I was in Middle School our school had an annual Fall Hayride. It was a BIG deal in our small school. One of the things we loved about the Hayride was the tradition of the "Boo & Yay Bit". Have you heard of that before? It went something like this -
Leader: The Principal said we couldn't have hot dogs round the camp fire this year.
Students: BOO!
Leader: He said we could Hamburgers AND hot dogs!
Students: YAY
Leader: The Girls will all be required to ride on the Green hay wagon.
Students: BOO!
Leader: The Boys will all be required to ride on the Green hay wagon with them!
Students: YAY!
Leader: NO smooching will be allowed at the Camp Fire.
Students: BOO!
Leader: All smooching must be done in the hay wagon!
Students: YAY!
And on and on it went. . .

Here is my "Boo and Yay" bit for today.
"My favorite all cotton-"go-to" white Capri's accidentally went thru the HOT dryer cycle.!"
BOO!! (Boo Hoo Hoo Hoo!!)
"I signed up for an online Bible study."
YAY!! (I can wear my pajama pants)

*At this particular time in my life I really don't have the time to do an in-depth Bible study, or even a study that requires me to "meet up" somewhere weekly outside my home. Soooo, I accidentally stumbled across this Bible study online yesterday. (I don't think it was an accident - I think it was Divine leading. Really. I do.) If you're curious or think this might be something you'd be interested in, you can read about it HERE. I've never done anything quite like this, so it's a "first" for me. It's called, "Faith Dare". I don't think it's affiliated with any type of denomination, just a 30 day, Bible-based study for Christian women.

So, got a "Boo" for today?
A "Yay"?
Or both?

The Bible study sounds good!
BOO: I was unmotivated to ride despite yesterday's beautiful weather
YAY: Now that my riding clothes are clean, I can ride in today's even BETTER beautiful weather!
BOO: we had to say good-bye last night as our friends left town and will be heading back to Florida.
YAY: We will see them again in March.
(BOO-HOO - the yay isn't good enough. I wish they could stay.)
The Bible study looks good. My group will be picking up in September or I would sign up. I did a Beth Moore study online a few years ago.
I don't really have a boo, but I will say yay for you that you found a study that works so well for you. Another big yay that you can do it in your pajamas.
BOO: I was unwrapping my new Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker and I accidently cut the cord off with scissors.
YAY: They are sending me a new one! Best.Customer.Service.EVER.
This is great!
