It is time for Spring Baseball Pictures. John did a great job for his individual picture.
And the team looked great as a group!
Research
Laura is working hard on her project for IGE in Action night on May 10. She is currently researching the life and career of Ulysses S. Grant. I am proud of this kid for working hard!
Home Sick…
…and snuggled on the couch.
Spring Baseball!
Let Spring Baseball begin!
Despite ending the fall season with a hard-hit baseball to his face and me wondering if he would be afraid of the ball, John started spring baseball with a bang.
Caught a high pop fly, worked hard to field balls, made great throws to first, and had a couple of good hits. Proud of this kid for bouncing back! #nofear
Food Prep
It was a typical Sunday. In between Sunday School, Girls Scouts, Cub Scouts, and laundry, I had to get our breakfast, lunch, and snack prep done.
That means eight Sausage and eight Bacon Breakfast Sandwiches for Andy, Energy Bites for Laura’s daily school snack, Goldfish for John’s daily school snack, 24 Breakfast Burritos for me, and refilling the kids’ snack container.
Finally, all done! Now, I think I will reward myself with a glass of wine…
Birthday Party!
Laura went to a birthday party today for her friend, Bethany. Laura had a great time! They got to paint, eat pizza, and enjoy desserts. I was very proud of Laura because Bethany’s mom told me that Laura was very polite, helpful, and relaxed. Sarah said that she wished the other girls had been that way. Love this kid!
Helluva Day
The sh** hit the fan at work today, culminating in my supervisor cleaning out his office and quitting. I cannot say that I am sad because his definition of being a fair boss is absolutely incorrect. You cannot berate employees – I was only on the receiving end two times – and think that you are giving “constructive criticism.” By the end of the day, our team already had a path forward. I work with a great team and I am absolutely lucky! Here is to the future! And, yes, I am drinking many martinis… This week was extremely stressful. If I wake up hung over tomorrow, then so be it. Monday is a new day and I fully intend to seize the day.
