The Weekend is Upon Us

My "Mini-Me" is spending the week in Jackson Mississippi, she just flew out of Hobby Airport. I have never seen someone SO excited to get on a plane. She loves to fly...and for that I am glad. Some people are so afraid of flying that they never get to go anywhere in their lifetimes!!
Jackson has yet ANOTHER baseball tournament in League City this weekend. Yes, the World Series was SUPPOSED to be the last one of the season...but our coach found ONE MORE end of season Hoorah to sign us up for. The guys are all for it, so they will be headed down to League City all by their lonesomes tomorrow. The first game starts a 8 am...the coach wants them there at 7:15 am...that means they will have to leave The Woodlands around 5:45 am. The Woodlands is about 80 miles from League City. These are pool games, so i am not going to go. I seriously need to spend some time on my house...THAT I AM TRYING TO SELL!!!
The Frio River trip is coming up, and from the looks of things, we are going to be sitting in puddles, NOT floating down a river. Beer...LOTS AND LOTS of beer...that should help matters immensely!!

Where To Begin...Where To Begin???

Well, as Glenda the Good Witch of the East said..."It's always best to begin at the beginning..."

Jackson's team got 2nd place in the 7U Nations World Series. It was a long, HOT, grueling week, but they hung in there!!

Then shortly after posing for this picture...the next day...Jackson did this...

Yes, I know, you just threw up in your mouth a little...we hear that a lot. Luckily, as bad as this looks, it was only dislocated, and he is up and running around again. Tough little guy that one!!

I Must Say...

I have a SEVERE case of vacation envy this year.

My friend Stacy is on an Alaskan Cruise right now...which at first mention sounded BORING to me...but after reading her blogs about what all they are doing, it sounds AMAZING!!

Now I find out that my neighbors across the street are going on a 7 night trip to Playa Del Carmen and staying at the same "all-inclusive" Iberostar resort that we stayed at 4 years ago...and had a FREAKING BLAST...even though a hurricane came. Ce la vie... the Blues are only doing the Frio this year. Gotta save those Benjamins...incase Mama Blue is on un-employment later this year.

Jackson's team is in the 7U World Series this week, so he and Mike are spending every waking moment in Humble. They are still playing the "Seed" games, as they were rained out (Hallelujah) yesterday!! We desperately needed the rain, so no one is complaining about the rain out.

UPDATE: Wolverines seeded 1st place...AGAIN!! Games aplenty today!! Go WOLVERINES!!!

Day 3 and I am DYING!!!

So, I haven't been sleeping well at night. My friend Shannon suggested that I might have too much caffiene in my system when I go to sleep at night, plus I have noticed that I consume A LOT...so I have decided to cut down my intake. I am not having ANY soda, coffee, or tea at present, and while I admit I did actually sleep pretty good last night, I feel like ASS right now. Kinda like a hangover without the upset stomach.

Still not a lot of water on the hill country. I guess we will still be going...there are still pools in the river to play in, just not going to be doing any good floating!! It will be fun though, I am trying REALLY hard these days to think positive thoughts. That being said, my head is still on the chopping block at work. I have had 3 interviews so far, but nothing has panned out for me. While I will admit to being scared about this, I also know that God has a plan for me. Whether or not it is staying at JPMC, or going somewhere else, OR (worst case) being a stay at home mom for a while and REALLY making drastic changes to our lives at home...Mike and I agree that it could be SO much worse. At least we are not alone in this world, or were just told that one of us have some sort of terminal disease or something like that. Okay, enough of being morbid...

No big plans for the 4th. Jackson's baseball team is in the World Series, and that Hoo-Hah starts on Sunday...Opening Day parade, all kinds of fun stuff. Everyone please stay safe, and be sure to tip your designated driver!!! Love L
