Football update...

So, I know it's been awhile since my last post - but it has been really busy recently (both at work and home). Just got back from Marshall's next to last football game of the season - once again we lost :-( at least it was close: tied at nothing until OT and then each team was given 4 plays to score from their own 20 yard line - the other team scored a touchdown and we didn't! This has been a disappointing season, we did well during the preseason - but it has been a different story the rest of the season. There has been a few close ones like tonight and a few blowouts as well, this was their best played game - the line held their opponents better tonight, created holes at times - we even caught a pass! Next Monday will be the last football game and then it will be on to wrestling...which he did last year, and enjoyed so he is doing it again this season of course. November 8th is the banquet for the football team, where they get trophies and other awards...we are all hoping that one particular child doesn't get MVP, as he doesn't deserve it, but evidently the coaches are scared of the kids mom so it may happen as the coaches vote for the award. Hopefully, we can make it through the banquet without some of the other moms trying to take on this other one (she's a big woman, but not with much speed - so they could probably do it if needed)!

Work has been more of the same...we got out by 3pm today and hope to do the same the rest of the week, and not have to work on Friday. I have a project to do to help the rest of the store understand clearance and the importance of it - I hate speaking in front of groups of people, even people I know really well...so this is a personal challenge for me as well. We will be slowing down now that we are nearing the holidays, until about 2 weeks before Christmas, then we start getting busy again. I welcome this time of year as it allows me to really dig into what I'm supposed to be doing on a daily basis and just don't have time everyday to do it to the fullest extent like I should. Nothing else new here, I'll post again maybe after my weekend with Marshall if we do anything exciting? We'll see...
