E is for Explanations and Endeavors!

Today is Monday! So I thought I'd give an explanation for the "Six Word Saturday" that I posted. As if one is really needed....

Thursday...game. We won. Friday...game. We won. Saturday...game. We lost. Actually.... to be honest the other coach cheated and we should have tied and gone into overtime. However... I am trying really hard to be nice (NOW!). I was very rude and ill on Saturday as it happened and immediately after the game. I went so far as to try call the other coach a "cheating jerk who doesn't know anything about playing by the rules". Luckily...after hearing what he had done, other parents and some of the other coaches felt the same way. NO! I didn't go make an announcement, although I felt like it! The parents and other coaches were there.... it was the first of two possible Championship games. If we had won (which we would have in OT) we would have played again. Unfortunately, the coach added a player in the middle of the game. This player knocked in the winning run. So if he hadn't been added, we would have gone into OT and won. Then the kid could have been added to the 2nd game.

I know I sound bitter about losing. Shoot! Who wouldn't want their kid on the #1 team..... but honestly.... I didn't mind that we lost. I got really mad that the other coach pulled the crap that he did. BUT.... it's over. There's always next year! :) With a different team and different coach. Our coach is moving up with his son, but we are not moving up yet! :) BUT.... the coach of the other team will not be back next year. The organization asked him to "forgo returning for another season". lol


So.... I guess that explains the "Six Word Saturday"!

Now....what new endeavors are there?

Just tonight, I decided to be the Fundraising Coordinator for Chasity's PTO! We'll see how that goes! lol I'll try most anything to help out....once.

So I have that for next year....

Then....Wednesday night I have a Girl Scout District Team meeting to see what they need help with! So I will be taking a position there also! (BUT...there are more people there to help out! lol)


AND... I am trying to get all my stuff together to send in to apply for an English Teaching position for next school year.


How many new things can a person add at once? LOL I don't know.... but I guess I'll be finding out soon! lol




I guess E is for explanations, endeavors, excitement, and entirely out of my mind! LOL





Until next time........

Emotional Easter

WARNING: This post is going to be REALLY long. Don't say you weren't warned! This is the post I have tried to convince myself not to write so that no one's feelings get hurt. However, my feelings got hurt, and so I have a right to write about it! :) Right? I'm not trying to hurt anyone with this, I'm just trying to sort things out in my brain. Writing is my best outlet for that. Anyways, I should preface this by saying that I come from a family that travels in herds/gaggles/armies/groups/whatever you call the large group of people you go out to eat with or hang out with most of the time. This weekend, we had some people come into town. We were invited Friday night to go out to eat with them at 7pm at a restaurant that is infamous for making you wait at least an hour around 7pm. There were going to be 8 adults and 5 kids.....13 total (I think!)! (That's about the normal size for the "army" we travel with here.) The other 10 people arrived around

Saving Money

Tony and I have always WANTED to save money. However, when we got married, we didn't start right away. Then two years later, Chasity was born. Then it was almost IMPOSSIBLE! Now, we've been married for 9 years, and we have VERY LITTLE actually saved. It seems like every time we get a little saved, something has to be fixed.... usually the car! lol It does need work now, but we're waiting.... but I don't think we can wait long. We know that when I actually get a teaching job, we'll be able to save about 1/3 (maybe more) of my paycheck every month....since we've been living for almost 4 years on just Tony's check anyways. However, I have decided that I want to start saving now! So.... here's my plan. It's really really hard....just kidding! The only thing I need to know is this.....Does Wal-Mart still match prices? If not, my plan is doomed! If so, I'm good to go! I have gone through all the sales papers for this week. I have circled thi

My Strange Collection--But Not Strange to Me!

Recently (just a minute ago) I visited Avr over at Just to Write . Today she is talking about things we collect. She collects unicorns. So in her comments today, I added my comment: Well... I collect Salt & Pepper shakers. I have been collecting them as long as I can remember. The rule is that they have to be unusual AND I don't buy them for myself! They have to come from other people....My Grandmother has the beginnings of my collection at her house. Some of them date back to WWII. Her uncle sent them here from overseas when he was fighting in WWII. So that is why I started collecting.... HOWEVER... I too have a collection of unicorn stuff. It has been packed up for a couple years now. I have seriously thought about putting it on eBay just to get rid of it. I started collecting those on my 7th bday. A friend gave me one for my bday and I loved it. Then I would see them everywhere. Then it became an obsession for a while! lol Now I think I'm just going to stic
