Life is Busy

Reports for school are not fun.

Bobby has a report to do on missions. Dax has a report to do on basketball. It isn’t bad enough that we have to get through regular homework, but now we have to work on a special project. Last night we went to the library where we picked up books I had put on hold for Bobby, and we got a couple books on basketball for Dax’s paper. The real issue is that Dax’s paper is being written in class, but it is being done on the computer. He is saving it in the Google Drive with his TUSD email, but for whatever reason it is not able to be accessed at home and it seems to disappear even at school. I have no idea what is going on. It means I will have to help Dax write the whole paper I think tonight and I will email it to Mr. Chin. That way it is done and not lost. Bobby’s report is not due until the 17^th, so I am sure some weekend time will be spent, but it looks like it will be a rather long paper, so I will need to get him to do a little bit each night. Tonight we will cover the introduction. He will also be able to type it, which will hopefully make it easier if only for reading purposes.

The spring team has been formed and our first game is this weekend. I think the time of the first game is 10. It will be interesting to see how this goes. The boys didn’t know that it was a co-ed team, so that was fun to see their reaction. I don’t know if they think it is good or bad, but they didn’t seem upset. They just were surprised.

What surprised me was that Bobby told me yesterday that he plans on playing soccer next year. He asked me if he would be on U12, and I told him he would. I told him for spring he is still considered U10, but if he played next season he would be U12. He said he was going to play next year and was quite jazzed. I am very pleased!

Stephanie kicked some major ass on the bathrooms at Steve. She cleaned like crazy and now they both shine! It rocked because it meant I didn’t have to. Ha! I did straighten up the downstairs and did some minor cleanup yesterday. Hopefully today before the boys get home I can start to tackle the closet shelves. I got bins in order to truly organize things and it will make it so much nicer in there.

Hopefully Sunday we can work on some garage items since truly during the week I don’t see a lot of time. Practices start up this week. We only have practice on Thursday this week, but going forward we will have them twice a week. I am not on any real schedule to get things organized, so I don’t have to stress about getting things done, so that is nice. I need to keep my mind realizing this so I don’t stress. Hell, with us most likely staying out rather late this coming Saturday, perhaps Sunday should be spent watching movies.

Stephanie and I both noted that we had not seen Cleopatra so we are planning on watching that. I need to ask my mom about another Elizabeth Taylor flick she showed me when I was a kid since I can’t remember the title. I feel like it had to do with Paris, but I can’t be sure.

I have several customers groveling to me this morning, so I will get to them.
