The Daily Grind

[toonMom]

Tell us about your day, week, year! What's going on in your life?

I'll start...
Things have settled down a little this week. My oldest son was playing soccer, wrestling and baseball which combined kept us busy 6 days of the week with practice, games and meets. Wrestling ended up being great fun even though it lasted the entire day on Saturdays. Kodie (who is 6) ended up placing at every meet, which I thought was very good for being his first year. Wrestling is over, as is soccer so we are left with only baseball and that is just 2 nights a week.

We have a raccoon in our attic which we think had babies up there too. It gets up about 9:00pm and doesn't stop making noise until around 5:00am. Hubby put a live trap up there but it won't go in it. Maybe it will just leave?

What's new?

Signed the boys up for cross-country running, took them to their first practice and... these were the words from the coach...

"it wouldn't hurt you parents to get out there and run along with them!"

So I am now running with the kids. I couldn't run when I was in high school! We went for our first run this morning and it wasn't too bad, but I am a bit tired now. It will be good to see the progress though.

What's going on with everyone else?

good for you, toonmom! way to support your kids, and do something good for yourself, too! as a runner, i appreciate talking with someone who loves running, too. or at least tries it!
what's going on with me? let's see...there's so much. let's start with one thing...i'm accepted into the visual communications program at medicine hat art college. that's a whole province away from home! (i'm too old for this!) it's a dream i've thought of for years, and now i finally have a chance to do it.
tons of other stuff to talk about. my life is very interesting right now! we'll talk later, k? ;D
