The Game

During this past week, our school celebrated Spirit Week. On of those celebrations consisted of a "Powderpuff Football Game". The teams were, 8th and 9th grade girls, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade girls. The winner of that game would play a few select all- knowing faculty members.

As Thursday unfolded, those 8th grade girls thought they were going to talk smack to us all day. So the decision was made that if they beat the older girls, they were going down!

As hoped for (by m.s. faulty) our girls won! That meant game on! We were doing well....as the faculty ladies were holding their own, then from behind..... touchdown for the 8th and 9th graders! that irritated us to no end! We burned inside...Beats those kids! Beat those kids!

Finally...it was my turn to go for the defensive kill! I'm on it, I can see it..one of my 8th grade smack talking girls had the ball....she was going down. I didn't just go for the flag, I went for the whole body. As I grabbed for her, I went down and slip across the end zone totally missing her and another touchdown for those brats! (just kidding). Not only did they win the game, I'm injured limping up the stairs. Limping my way to my office in front of them! The smack got louder, louder, and LOUDER!

As I am typing, still today, I am so sore. The sad thing is that I am so active. How can this be for me? I haven't even been able to bike rider, go out for a walk, and certainly no jogging. What is wrong with me? It is age? Hmmm.......

Another school day, another Junior Lion Game!

I love coaching the Junior Lions. More importantly, I love Shelly being on the team. Not because I am just her Mom, but because her and all of the girls bring me such joy after a long stress-filled day at work.....

The top part of my hair, the really white looking hair, was totally dead. It looked and felt like straw. The bottom middle section had totally broken off. Pathetic!

It's been too long....

I've been out of touch with my blogging. I have had quite a bit happen. The biggest thing it that I thought I became a hair stylist and highlighted my own hair to save some money. Yeah right!! I left the color in for to long and I fried my hair! When I thought I was saving money became a very expensive fix. My hair is now as short as it was back before I got married. A long long time ago....

I have before and after pictures, but not downloaded yet.. They will come soon!
