Why you should not drink and play volleyball!!!!

Poor Frank. His first appearance at our school after moving to a new one. Playing against us, within the first minute of the game. Serves the ball into the net, and being dramatic he dives onto the floor, and lands on his face and cuts his upper lip with his own teeth. To the point that within seconds blood is gushing, swelling, and in my opinion, stitch worthy. Poor Frank.

On a lighter note, my team one our pool. by far the strongest team, stacked with 5 players and me. I am getting better. But my game got worse the more that I drank. Why is that?

An ugly day here. There is thick fog, and rain. Good day to just stay in bed.
Or, go shopping.

Or should I save my pennies for when I go to England in two weeks?

Hmmmm

Today I got sneezed on by some child.
It was gross.
He was standing beside me and then he let the sneeze out.
It covered me from head to toe.


YUCK

I think that I might be back from the dead.
Well maybe just for today.
Things have been a little heavy on the emotional side.
Have been busy attending weddings, and stagettes, and baby parties. All the while being thrust into the land of commitment and relationships, and wondering how people do it. Have also made some great realizations about people that I don't need to make space for in my life anymore.

Basketball season is in full swing and the girls are playing well. This will be our best season by far, and we are thrilled. The sad thing is to see them grow as players under our supervision and then move up to play at the senior level. I guess that is just the way that things are to go.

We have booked our trip already for March Break and will be heading to the Dominican Republic for a week. God help that resort. I'm not sure that they are ready for the girls. I of course will be the most tame and innocent out of the whole group.

I am sad though as that is the week that I usualy go to spend with my sister, and I really want her to come and join us. However I am not sure where she will be as she is talking of moving and then staying in London. It is an interesting journey.

Testing week for the 10's this week so there is great excitement over the test that they will be writing over the next few days.

I am working on yet another course to upgrade my credentials. And have finaly sent off my paperwork to get a salary increase. That money is already spent.

Although I have been so good lately at not spending money. I think I might have mentioned that while I was in my car, and it felt that it could then afford to ask for some loving. $500 later she is running like a kitten. Only needs $600 more and she will be up and running like new. I think that it is time for me to think about that Mini cooper or smart car that I NEED to have.

final thought:
Yan asks where I think I will end up (career wise)
I say jokingly, "Where ever the good Lord leads me."
Yan says, "He will probably lead you to Trinity Common."!! (The local shopping conglomorate)

Oh, wise Chinese elder!!!!

another final thought.
New obsession
Starbucks Chai Tea Latte. WOWZA!!

I wonder how many times I can be kicked in the teeth by someone before I realize that they are not worth my time or energy.
This has been another challenging weekend for me.
It's really hard to hold your chin up when you keep getting blow after blow laid down on you.

Why am I always letting people with such negative energy drain me?
When will I find the strength to rid myself of people who just repetedly cause me pain?

It's that damn broken wing syndrome. People come into my life because they need some one to care for them. And the minute that they are stable again... the fly off shitting on me as they leave.

That seems to be the theme of this weekend.

What happens when I have too many Cosmos. 

My and my Cosmo.
