Good news #1. Lisa found the camera, and just in time - my insanity was becoming pretty deeply rooted, and I'm pretty sure I was mere moments away from going over the edge. I'll post pics soon.
Good news #2. Tyla loved being in our friend Becky's wedding last weekend (she sat at the guest book with her cousin, Jake), and exclaimed, "I love working here!". We had to take the chairs away from the table to get her to sit with us at the dance - she didn't want Becky to think she wasn't taking her job seriously.
Good news #3. Tyla got over her shyness and hit it off with our extended family on the weekend. For future reference, it's way easier to get used to new people when there's a hotel pool to play in.
Good news #4. I put my back out less than 2 hours before our team's first soccer practice yesterday, but still managed to get there in one piece and without shedding tears.
Good news #5. I survived my first soccer practice as coach, and picked up an assistant coach along the way.
Good news #6. We don't have soccer practice again for 2 weeks.
Good news #7. I didn't lose my cool when I discovered Tyla's "writing" all over her bed room walls (and closet, and ceiling, and trim...) right after last night's soccer practice.
Good news #8. Magic erasers really are magic, as Tyla will learn today after school when she gets to scrub the walls in her room.
Good news #9. It's Tuesday. Only 3 more sleeps until Friday. (I now measure my life in "sleeps".)
Good news #10. I found 9 other things to call "good news". Things are looking up. (I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to come up with any last night...)

Is this soccer for kids or adults? I have a soccer program if you want it for kids?
ReplyDeleteMagic erasers are awesome, but too bad they don't replace borders that got ripped down at nap time :(
Laura Quirk (can't get the stupid URL thing to work right)
It's kids soccer - co-ed under 8. Any help you can pass along would be very welcome!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, magic erasers are great - although we used 3 whole extra strength erasers and there's STILL drawing on the walls!
