Prom 2010 Blue Valley

My Life Before My Eyes

Tonight on the way home I was in an almost near death accident. Somehow I managed to escape unscathed. Two women in an SUV were not watching, almost rear ended me, and ended up rolling in the ditch. They had to use Jaws of Life to get them out, they had a little dog with them - that was pretty shook up. I was just mentally unprepared for all of that on today.

Canadian Mist has helped settle the nerves.

busy weeks ahead

Well - last week was busy - 2 varsity softball games - Izzy relief pitched Thurs at Riley and did an outstanding job. Coach called late after the game - #1 to check on his pitcher, #2 to congratulate us - the parents on a fine outstanding job Izzy did, #3 to make sure his new Varsity Pitcher had Ibu for pain, ice to help the hurt, a good meal before bed, Gatorade to rehydrate, and to say that Izzy found her Moxy!

This weekend was a whirlwind of events. Charles was gone to an auction and got an oil bath - not pleasant he said. We were gone shopping - I rented a Rugdr and cleaned carpets, we had crab legs, we fished, we laughed, Izzy attended a party for Big Boy in Manhattan for his class and we rounded out the evening with softball practice for Pedro! Whew!

Today - Softball at Silver Lake - game time has been moved up to 3:30 due to #1 no lights at their complex and #2 - they were predicting storms.

To round out our week - Wed Pedro has pitching practice, Thurs Diddie gets spray tanned for Prom, Friday I hope to have a relaxing evening at home. Saturday is prom - so another day of being gone from home for about 5 hours while hair, nails and make up get done, a tux gets picked up, a dress put on, a candlelit dinner prepared, and promenade at BVMS at 7:30. Did I get it all in there? Oh Wait - Big Boy had a track meet also last Thurs and set personal best in his shot put and mile and today he has a track meet at Belleville.

Charles needed to spray yesterday but a bearing is out and somewhere in a mix up of communication parts did NOT get ordered. Charles' trailer is still in his shop tore down - something with brake lines now leaking. Have a great week!

softball

This week Izzy got to pitch in the Varsity game - Very exciting - very nervewracking. She did awesome - she only allowed one run - her defense did a great job of backing her up and getting the outs they needed to. She is also the DP - for a good reason - she doesn't complain about it. She loves to go out and hit the ball - and the coaches love that she loves to do that job without complaint!

Easter 2010

Easter was fun this year. Big Boy came along to Gma and Gpa's. It was so ding dang HOT out that my kids decided to make it informal.
