Good morning all and "Happy" Monday.
Holy monkey butts. It is cold. We officially hit a record low this morning. 46. We went from lows in the upper 70's and highs in the low 90's to FORTY SIX DEGREES IN TWO DAYS. The GOOD part of that kind of drastic change is the fact high's are supposed to be between 75 and 80 this afternoon. Still. Too cold to ride the bike to work. Maybe I'll ride to the gym this evening or something.
Apparently, I did something right on the ballfield last Thursday. The guy in charge called me last night and told me that he wanted me back on the field tomorrow. I may end up missing Melanie's game. Or I may end up calling it. It'll just depend on how he moves us around.
Kat is going in to the orthopedic doc today to have her foot checked on. If the boot comes off, she'll be able to play in her first volleyball game tomorrow. Unfortutatley, it wont end before Mel's game starts, which means if I'm working the 12U game, no one will be there to watch the beginning of Mel's game. We'll see how it works out though.
Not much else out of the norm going on. Always running around. Always busy. Gym tonight. I MIGHT have eaten too much over the weekend. Apparently, all of the yard work I did yesterday wasnt enough to offset the difference. But the ice cream was so good. Soooooo good.
Another little tidbit... The head coach of what we were hoping to be Kat's next travel ball team had an accident. A bad one. He was riding his 4-wheeler when he lost brakes. As the machine went over a cliff, he jumped off. From what we were told, he fell 30' and the quad fell closer to 100'. He's in really bad shape. They dont know if he's going to live. If he does live, they dont know if he'll ever walk again. Severe head trauma, multiple broken vertebrae, punctured lung, broken ribs, and more that she couldnt remember. It really sucks, not just because of the team doesnt have a head coach at the moment, but because he is just a really good guy. The lady that told Mrs E about it at work yesterday is the wife of the guy that was going to be the assistant coach. Mrs E told her that under no circumstances are they to give up on those girls because they dont have a head coach and volunteered me to co-coach with him. And as long as we can work out the scheduling, I'm all for it. As long as those girls want to play, we're going to make sure they can play.
James, do you have a pair of leather chaps?? I have an extra pair, prolly about 32-36 x 34. If you think they'd fit your svelte self, PM me and let me know.
My youngest won't wear them, and they are a few inches short for him anyway. They can be cut off if they are too long.
Meeeeh. I'm not exactly a chaps kinda guy. But I really do appreciate the offer!!!
Happy game day!!!! The packers won because I made this, prepare to drool. I mixed it up with regular bacon, hot peppered bacon, and onions.
almost ready to bake:
TaDa!!!!
I refuse to like that.
Had to post it to James on FB too, he needs to see it twice.
Definitely wont like that.
Holy crows, I tasted it. Bacon heaven. Now I have to make sure not to even look at the thing.
And I cant bring myself to like that. Too much torture.
I did tell Mr V to feel free to ship leftovers my way. Vacuum seal it, pack it with dry ice in a styrofoam cooler, and send it overnight... it would get here safe and sound!
