Ok. Who's ready ?



We are off this weekend. So maybe working on tee a bit. Always working on pitching. So I plan on going fishing for the first time in 3 months. Very excited for that.

I'm travelling on business. Noisy cable cars outside the hotel window. Streets so steep the sidewalks have stairs, lots of fog. My legs are aching. I walk to and from work a few miles every day from my hotel, on the top of Nob Hill. Forget the name of the city.

Tomorrow DD 2 and DD 3 register for HS. Both are running XC in the fall.

I get home after midnight Friday night, then we drive to Milwaukee to get furniture for DS' new apartment he shares with his rowing teammates.
Next Wednesday DD 1 moves into her dorm. Her room mate lives a few blocks away. They went to elementary school together. They are both pre-meds, and they will take all the same classes in the fall, including an elective class on Tibetan Buddhism. Her roommate is a Tibetan Buddhist, knows the Dhali Lama, so she can help DD 1 with that class. I can help DD 1 with her chemistry class.

Hi. My name is MAMBM, and I've been a member of CIISP for a couple years now. I am proud to support the cause.

DD has ondeck tryouts, and the first defensive practice with her new team. Then there's a parent meeting afterwards. While no one will actually own up to it, I strongly believe that there are several founding members of CIISP who will be present for this.

Sunday, dd is going to see Nick Jonas. I am not going, because the feels when I watch him make me feel like a pervy old lady.

Oh and my in-laws are coming, so I'm pretty sure I'll need to spend extra time out in my yard, maybe hang some Christmas lights, work on solving world hunger from my camp trailer. . .

DD still sick, urr... I think I missed last week's update.

This week's goal is to put all the softball stuff in addict for winter and get my truck back for a little while.

(Sad part is I am not sure it will ever come down)

First Rec practice on Saturday and going to a pitching lesson for one of her MS pitchers to catch for her (scary since this girl throws a lot harder/faster than DD is used to - she's almost 3 years older)
Double header on Sunday for MS (I can't make it due to other DD's cheer practice so DH has to score the game for me - we'll see how that goes!)

DD is back on the diamond playing a double header tomorrow for her HS fall ball fundraiser league. She is playing with last year's JV team - since varsity graduated 10 seniors (only 4 returning varsity players), these ladies will make up her team in the spring.
