Lane 4 is no longer the prime lane...yuck!

The weather was not as good as they lying bastards said it would be. Cloudy, windy and a bit cool. Today is "supposed" to be nice. Why do I even watch the weather? It is like a sickness.

The track meet was OK. Jess won the long jump with a personal best 16 feet even. She was really feeling sick. Her cold just won't let her breath right so she was struggling.

She won the 400 with a time of 59.97 which was ok but I could tell she was having trouble with her breathing. She said she felt like she was going to get sick

She got second in the 800. She just died the second lap and didn't run a very good time for her.

The got 1st in the sprint med relay but she puked right before she ran (on the track no less). It wasn't much vomit so it wasn't that gross but still.

After she ran, the coach let me take her home so she could go to bed. Today she runs in the Drake relays but it is only one 400. I am hoping she gets better soon. This chest cold has been hanging on for a week.

Drew is going to state TSA on Monday. He will be competing in three events. RC car, Quiz bowl, and bridge building. They are going to the Adventurland hotel in Des Moines and staying overnight. He is excited. He will miss two days of school, Monday and Tuesday.

He also has a track meet tonight. He is throwing the discus. Tomorrow a baseball game.

No school today - teacher's inservice. I have to go in a bit early today to make sure they are all setup for the presentations.

Once again I am going to try to take pictures and put them on the blog. I just do a terrible job of that but I am going to really put some effort into getting the camera out and taking some shots.

Ok, off to start
