Well then.

So – the whole Little League experience is done for the year. I’ll post their team photo’s as soon as I get them in. They’re mailing them and mine are late getting here. But! a good time was had by all. We had the last of the activities – a team party for the Girl’s team on Saturday. She recieved an award for being the most improved catcher, and Coach M seems to think she’ll do just fine next year in the major league.

The boy’s team arrived in STYLE for the closing ceremonies as he and his 2nd place team the Reds were ushered to the front gates like this:

They were the TALK of the ceremonies! One of our boys’ dads is a part time driver, and his boss donated the ride because the boys got to the championship. They road around town and visited their friends houses for about an hour beforehand as well – sipped soda from champagne glasses and generally had a wonderful time.

The pup did really well her last game too, got to play catcher and everything. She really enjoyed this season and is already looking to next year to learn even more.

While the two oldest were a little disappointed not to make allstars, momma was glad, as it means the season is over instead of having another 3 weeks of conflicting schedules – I even lost weight walking all over that darn park 18 million times… specially on days when I had two games at the same time at opposit ends of the park. Even added 13 pounds to the exercise at times while I was carrying the nephew with me!

i didn’t really notice the difference until I realized hanging my keys from my beltloop was making my pants fall down – as well as walking through doing grocery shopping, my back didn’t start to ache until near the end, instead of within 5 minutes after getting there. I guess it’s a good thing.. *L* I don’t see a difference, but the sister says she can. Hrm. *L* odd, really. After asshole leaves this time around, I’ll likely start walking sometimes with the sister. we’ll see.

Other then that – enjoying my time off, enjoying this week of no games and no homework to simply take some time for me – but alas must reformat my computer tomorrow. *sob* because it keeps rebooting itself and it’s a problem that’s just getting worse and worse.

So we’ll go with a reformat and start all over. Must burn some cd’s now for backup purposes. *pout* feel sorry for me, ok? ok. heh.
