A busy month...

It's been a while since I've updated, so I'll take a minute or two to post a few thoughts about what's been going on since my last missive.

Work at the school has been hectic and long. The hours are many, and the work is even more. There's enough work for three people, and only enough time for one. My predecessor had left the campus in a shambles, and it's going to take a while to get it back into shape. Slowly but surely...

My son's first football game (ok, so it was a scrimmage) was last week, and apparently he's a pretty scrappy little fella. The scrimmages were only 8 downs offense and 8 downs defense, so it didn't leave a lot of time to get a full idea, but he did have a couple of sacks and a tackle in the backfield, so it looks promising. He's now sizing in at 6'1" and weighing in at nearly 160 pounds. He's bulking up as his body catches up to his hormones, but there's still the pre-teen sneaking out every now and then.

My daughter started soccer again this year--thankfully. She needed to get out and play again, as she's been bitching for two years that she wanted to play, but never got around to signing up. She plays on the big fields now, so it will be interesting to see if she's really as willing to play as she says. There's a LOT more running than on the smaller 'kid' fields, and she's become so prissy that I don't really see her running that much. Time will tell there. It's just good to see her out doing something.

Not a lot else to report. The summer heat fortunately never found its way here this year, winter is not far away, and The Edge did away with their message board (that part will only make sense to one immature shithead--you know who you are and so do I). So, until next time...
