Spring is almost here!

Well, it is almost spring time and I cannot wait. Have some serious "cabin fever" going on here. Now that basketball is done, I feel so cooped up in the house. I must say I am having basketball withdrawal, especially knowing that this is their last year, so who know if I will see any of them after they graduate :-( Kind of sucks. I have seen about half of them though, they are on volleyball now and we have gone to a couple of games. Meagan now wants to play volleyball.

 So, not much else new going on here. I have been keeping busy with work and trying to get back into the gym. Not going was well as I want, but making progress. Besides getting there, hardest thing is knowing what I can do and what I cannot do yet. Some day I feel like I can do certain things and other days, not so much. Have to be careful. I hate feeling this way, new experience for me as far as working out and not really taking to it very well. I'll just have to suck it up and start out very, very slow as far as any weights. Another reason why I want warm weather, then I have other options. Can't wait to get back out there and start rollerblading again.

Mary is doing well, still watching the 2 girls after school and not looking forward to next week. They are no spring break and she will have them all day. Seriously, I do not know how she is going to survive the summer having them all day. She is going to be "nutty" when I get home from work.

Meagan just got done taking her ISAT tests. She was really kind of freaking out about them, but handled it well. She is such a smart kid, but just cannot handle the pressure at all. We are working on improving her writing and math. She still loves reading and excels at that, but I'd like to see her put some of that effort into other areas. Also, some great news. She is doing this dance club at school and they only pick like 1/3 of the kids in it to do a show in front of the school and then the parents and she got picked. She was so excited that day when I came home I thought she was going to burst. I am sooooooo glad she got picked. She would have been so bummed if she didn't. That should be really fun. Need to start thinking about what to do with her during the summer. Hopefully we can find some stuff to sign her up for.

Other things going on in our lives. Let's see, need 2 new tires and all new brake pads and rotors on my car. BYE BYE tax refund. Oh well, at least it was good timing as far as that goes, a couple months back and we would not have had the money. Found out that I am going to be an uncle again, that's right Jill and Michael are having another one. Surprise, this from the ones who said they did not want any, I knew they were so lying, lol! I can't wait. Just saw them this past Saturday for Ally's 2nd birthday. She is so cute. Cannot believe she is 2 already. Time flies.

Now, just waiting for St. Patty's Day to get my corned beef and cabbage. YUMMMY, I cannot wait.


HAPPY ST. PATTY'S DAY TO ALL!
