I think I'm gonna hurl.....

Cookie made his pitching debut last night...struck out five and only walked 3 while giving up 2 runs in a game his team won 9-7. I've said it before, but I am a zillion times more nervous watching my childrens' endeavors than I ever was when I was playing. The combination of wanting so badly for your child to have success and your absolute inability to influence the outcome is painful. His coach awarded him the game ball afterward and he beamed with pride. I think it might have made it into bed with him last night!

I've reverted to slug-like inactivity. I just can't find the motivation, and we're chasing our asses with kids activities. I'm determined that next week will be different, but I don't know how to make it happen.

Tommie's first communion was terrific. Always a good excuse to get together and drink some beer! it's the Catholic way!

groundhog day

Cookie had his first baseball game last night, and the results were painfully similiar to last years...a 12-2 loss to a team that's not that much better than us. We have to find a catcher who can catch and pitchers who can pitch or it will be more of the same.

Walked 3.75 miles this morning. I'm not as sore as Tuesday...hurray.

X yur thighs...

Did a lifting circuit last night...first time in months and the shoulders, arms and quads are reminding me of the gap.

Walked 3 miles this morning....went by the Hoffman Estates and then the Greifenkamp Grotto...like a little kid on a bike, hoping in vain that one of them might come out and play with me, but alas.

long time, no post.

I've become addicted to facebook. It's like crack for the 40 yr old set.

anyway Jules and I put a new floor in TA's room over the weekend. I think it looks great! The boss is getting really good at the laminate flooring thing.

Haven't been real diligent re: exercise. I've made a promise to myself to get back on the horse this week!
