Blog Brain Dump Friday Edition

Hello last day of school before Spring Break. Can you say, "I'm ready for a break?!" Because I know I am!

I'm also glad to say that indoor soccer and YMCA volleyball will be over this weekend! I'll be honest, we were over-achievers this winter break and because of that, we had some serious overlap with (spring) outdoor soccer games and practices. Speaking of outdoor soccer, Randy is coaching Kyla's team again this season. Which means... I'm team mom. Rah-Rah! If you didn't know already, being team mom is much like being a homeroom mom, but not as long. It's near torture getting people to respond, reply and sign up for (fill-in-the-blank). That's why I'll never be homeroom mom. Never. Ever. I can't handle it. Can I get a witness?

So running... sigh. Still not running. And, I just realized I've been nursing a hurt hip for like... a MONTH! That's just insane. Insane, because a month has zipped by in no time. Insane, because... c'mon... heal already! I'm ready to get back to running. I NEVER thought I'd utter those words. Never.

I've used the word "never" quite a bit in this post. You know what they say about saying never...

So, this is blog entry #999. Can you believe it? I've been writing on this blog since 2005. My girls were 4 and 2. They are now 9 and 7. Wow! I'm so glad I have a chronicle of their little lives. What a treasure it has been to take a look back into our lives... our ups and our downs. Our triumphs and our defeats.

Which brings me to my 1000 Blog Entry Giveaway! Don't get all excited... it's not anything huge, but something from my "gift and talent" that God blessed me with. So, be on the look out for it in the next day or two!

That's all for now!
Carry on!

  1. I'm a room mom … volunteered because no one else did. I sort of regret it …

  2. Woo hoo, I've been here for all 999 posts, I do believe!

    And I, too, am room mom because, though others volunteered to do it "if nobody else could", I was the only full-time SAHM without other excuses. So I did it. But those other moms have really stepped up to help, just as they said they would when they replied "I can help, but I can't be room mom because x. . . y . . . x. . ." Truly, if someone doesn't check her email every 12 hours or more, she won't get to volunteer at our class parties or bring whatever the teacher needs. I realize I lucked out this year and do not plan to be room mom again next year.
