THINGS HERE ARE GOING GOOD. EMILY AND ERICA HAVE SIGNED UP FOR SOFTBALL. EMILY IS MORE EXCITED THAN ERICA. ERICA IS SCARED OF THE BALL SO SHE HAS A TENDENCY TO BACK OUT OF THE BOX. LAST YEAR THE GIRLS AGED 9-12 WERE ON TEAMS. EM AND ER TEAM WERE ALL NEW PLAYERS. THEY WERE SCARED AND WHEN THOSE OLDER GIRLS GOT UP THERE AND THREW THOSE PITCHES, IT REALLY FRIGHTENED THEM. THIS YEAR WILL BE A LITTEL DIFFERENT. THEY ARE HOPING TO SEPERATE THE 9-10 YEAR OLDS AND THEN THE 11-12 YEAR OLDS. I THINK THIS IS A WONDERFUL IDEA. IT GIVES THE YOUNG ONES TIME TO ADJUST.

WE WILL BE TRAVELING THIS YEAR DUE TO THE CHANGE. ITS NOT LIKE WE HAVE TO GO FAR BUT SOME OF THE PARENTS DONT LIKE THAT IDEA. ME..I GO WITH IT BECAUSE I ENJOY SEEING MY GIRLS MINGLE WITH THEIR OWN TEAMMATES AND THE OTHER TEAM ALSO.

I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED BASEBALL/SOFTBALL SEASON. WE HAVE A SMALL TOWN AND IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE IS SO INTO THIS SEASON AS WELL. SO MANY FAMILIES ARE OUT THERE. SOME OF THEM I HAVE NEVER SEEN. ITS ALL FOR THE KIDS. IM INTO THE KID THING. ALSO TO SEE SOME PEOPLE THAT I ONLY SEE AT THIS TIME OF THE YEAR.

PRACTICE WILL START IN ABOUT 2 WEEKS. THE GIRLS COACH MR DENNY IS GREAT. LAST YEAR HE TOLD ALL PARENTS THAT HE WAS GONNA BE EASY BUT STERN. AND HE WAS. HE HAS INFORMED US THIS YEAR WILL BE THE SAME BUT THEY NEED TO HAVE A LITTLE MORE DISIPLINE. I MEAN THIS IN THE WAY THAT MORE PRACTICES TO TEACH, LEARNING TO SLIDE. THEY ALL HAVE TO SLIDE AND LIKE I SAID LAST YEAR THEY DIDNT REALLY CALL OUTS DUE TO THE FACT THEY WERE NEW. NO GIVE MES THIS YEAR. TIME TO TOUGHEN UP I RECKON.

WELL I NEED TO GO AND DO SOME STUFF BUT WILL TRY TO KEEP YOU UPDATED MORE OFTEN. WITH SOFTBALL SEASON HERE IM SURE I WILL HAVE ALOT TO SAY.

WINTER CLEANING....APRING ANEW

I HAVE OFTEN WONDERED WHAT IT WAS LIKE TO BE REALLY HAPPY. IF ONLY FOR A MOMENT I AM THAT. HAPPY. CONTENT. AND ONLY A LITTLE STRESSED. EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT THEIR OWN ROUTINE IS OF SPRING CLEANING. WELL I HAVE INVENTED MY OWN CLEANING. W---I---N---T---E---R (SEASON THAT I DECIDED TO DO AWAY WITH SOME "ONE") I CLEANED IT OF ALL THE NEGATIVE ( MY EX BOY-FRIEND OF 9 LONG YEARS.)I GOT RID OF THE OLD ONE THAT WAS USELESS AND ALL THE OTHER STUFF I JUST DIDNT WANT ANYMORE AND MADE HIM LEAVE. I HONESTLY AND TRULY AM GLAD I DID THIS. IT TOOK ALOT OF DETERMINATION. I HAVE TRIED TO DO THIS FOR AWHILE BUT SOMETIMES ITS HARDER TO DO THAN TO SAY YOU WANT TO. I WAS TIRED OF WHAT MY LIFE HAD BECOME. I THINK ALOT OF NERVOUSNESS WAS DUE TO INSECURITY, THE LACK OF KNOWING, AND JUST PLAIN SCARED. I HAD GOOD FRIENDS TO GET ME THRU THE FIRST COUPLE OF DAYS. TO MY SUPRIZE EACH DAY HAS GOTTEN EASIER. ANOTHER THINGS IS IS THAT I HAVE FOUND SOMETHING THAT MAKES EACH DAY A LITTLE MORE ENJOYABLE(

WHAT I THINK?

As I was growing up I would often sit and listen to my mom or dad tell me what I should do or what I was going to do (if i wanted to live here under their roof), and wonder why dont you ask me what I think I should do? This moment in time has been poking its head into my now grown up life as I try to tell my soon to be 17 year old son what I now know what he needs to do. The blank look on his face when I "suggest" what he might do tells me those words that I hear in the back of my mind ("You'll see one day when you have kids") were true. I would only admit this to ...well ...me. The thing I cant comprehend is how much the world is changing. When I was young(er)...I would have never and I mean NEVER talked with such sturness to my parents. I was too afraid that I would get grounded or at the worst end up with no teeth. Not that my parents ever threatened me with that, but I had an understanding from a very young age that respect was the upmost important thi

AND WE'RE BACK

ITS BEEN A COUPLE OF DAYS SINCE I WROTE SO I WANTED TO JOT A FEW WORDS. AT LAST POST I WAS PATIENTLY WAITING THE DEPARTURE FOR THE CRUISE. WELL, IT HAS COME AND HAS GONE TO BE ONLY A MEMORY. WE LEFT HERE AT AROUND 5:00 ON FRIDAY(21ST) MORNING. I WAS EXCITED ABOUT THE TRAVELING BUT ALSO BECAUSE I WAS GONNA GET TO SEE HOPE(AND FRED). I SPEAK WITH HERE ALMOST EVERYDAY BUT SEEING HER IN PERSON IS JUST A BREATHE OF FRESH AIR. WE ARRIVED IN GEORGIA SOMETIME THAT MORNING...LORD I CANT REMEMBER THE TIME. WE ATE AT SHONEYS. IT WAS A SHORT VISIT BUT IT WAS WONDERFUL. THE GIRLS GOT TO SEE THEIR AUNT HOPE AND CAT NAVY AND I GOT TO SEE MY BEST FRIEND. WE THEN HEADED SOUTH AGAIN ON 95. WE HAD A LONG WAY TO GO. WE WERE WANTING TO GET TO WEST PALM BEACH BEFORE DARK. IT WOULD NOT HAVE MATTERED TO ME AS LONG AS I GOT TO STOP BY THE HARLEY SHOP IN DAYTONA. THAT HAS BECOME A LITTLE TRADITION OF MY OWN. THIS WAS MY 3RD CRUISE AND ON BOTH OF THE OTHERS, THE TRAVEL DOWN WE STOPPED. I GOT A SH
