Softball Opening Day! GO TARHEELS!

Softball started today!  (If you couldn’t figure it out, the Princess is playing for the TARHEELS!)  We are UNC fans anyways; so this just made it BETTER!!!

 

We had to pick up uniforms before the game.  Her pants didn’t fit.  Had to get the right ones.  Other kids’ didn’t have pants that fit. Sad smile  CHAOS!!

 

Then we had TWO games.  Double-header!  We will have that every 3 weeks.  There are only 3 teams in the age division.  Tarheels.  Smile  Pirates (ECU).  Nationals (Washington).

 

We won the first game, but some of the girls (5 of the 9 there today) have never played before!  They were TIRED!  We lost the second game. 

 

Some of the umps calls were HORRIBLE!  For example, he called a pitch a ball, but the batter swung at it.  (Anyone explain that to me!?)  No…. he couldn’t explain it either! 

 

For now, I’m sporting my farmer’s tan sunburn and raccoon eyes!  I had a canopy to put up, but if I had put it up, the other parents wouldn’t have been able to see.  (I was trying to be nice!)  Next week, I will sit somewhere else so that I can use my canopy without interfering with others’ viewing pleasure!

 

The only time you can tell I’m part Cherokee is when I get a little too much sun.  It won’t happen next week.  I’ll have my canopy and my new UNC hat that I just got from the Academy Sports! Smile  I am sure the part in my hair is burnt too!  (That’ll be fun for church tomorrow!) 

 

Luckily, the Princess wore a long-sleeved shirt under her jersey all day.  She didn’t get much sun.  Plus, we had 110 SPF on her face and neck!  She’s a little pink, but nothing serious.  I’ll aloe her (like I did me) and she’ll be fine tomorrow! 

 

Good thing my hands don’t burn or I’d be in serious pain right now!  Smile 

 

I’m just glad that softball has finally started!  I love this! 

GO TARHEELS!!

Weight Update!!

Last week, I didn't weigh myself because I was sick! Plus, I didn't really eat anything much at all last week. I did, however, register for Weight Watchers online. So I did spend time reading up and learning about the program. Today, I got on the scale. Two weeks ago, I weighed 402. Today, I weigh 390! In two weeks, I have lost another 12 lbs. That makes a total of 26 lbs. so far! I'm excited! Yeah, if you look at the previous post about my weight, it says that I started at 412. Yeah... I looked at the paper wrong. I started at 416. I lost 4 lbs the first week. I lost 4 lbs the second week. I lost 6 lbs the third week. Then I didn't weigh in last week. I weighed in today at 12 lbs down! I can tell it mostly in my pants. I HATE for my pants to be baggy, so I buy them to fit! Yesterday, I wore my black dress pants to church and I had to keep pulling them up. I'm going shopping next Sunday with my mom! I'm so happy! Next Sunday is my bday! So.....

Still Learning

Ok...so I'm always learning something new. However, recently, I have seriously been thinking about something. I want to learn to sew. My mom has a sewing machine I can use any time I want to. Of course, if I really learn to sew, I'd want my own sewing machine! ;) Anyways, I have been checking into classes. I have only found one place in my town that does classes. They offer a 4 week class for $115. That's not bad for a class. But, I'm afraid I wouldn't learn in 4 weeks and I'd need to take the class again! lol Anyways, I'm still looking into it. I'd love to learn. I will one day. However, I've seen some REALLY cute things that I'd love to sew for Chasity to wear! :) Until next time........

NC Weather

Image
In the state of NC, we rarely get that BIG SNOW. They used to be more common.  We used to get one huge snow a year.  Now, we are lucky if we get one every 2-3 years.    However, schools are cancelled, delayed, or let out early for weather all the time here.  We haven’t heard anything today about our schools, but we shall see.    It’s all about waiting to see what happens.  Sometimes, I think that God is sitting up there showing us HIS sense of humor.  He lets the weather people tell us whatever they want to tell us.  Then HE decides to have some fun with the weather.  (That’s just my 2 cents!)   Countdown Updates: 0 days until I pick up cookies!  TODAY is the day! They are still calling for “weather,” but they are pushing back the start time to later today. My scheduled pick up time is 6pm. So, we shall see.  It should be fine. Tony is going to drive me there so I’m not having to do it alone.  Then ...
