Well the weather is still hot and humid but it is the Friday before I head out to the no-humid state of California.
The softball team got their first win last night. Jess played well, she had 2 hits. One was a single and the other a double. She drove in 3 runs.
They play in a tournament this weekend at Ames. The games today are at 1 and 2:30. I won't be able to see them. Tomorrow they play in the morning and then at 1 or 2 so we will be done early.
Drew had a game yesterday and they lost but he played well. He had a couple hits and an RBI. He is loving the scooter. He drives it around everywhere. We are still waiting for the dealer to get a number so I can get it registered but he can drive it in-transit for awhile.
The weekend will go quick. Saturday the tournament and then my flight leaves Des Moines at 6:30 am on Sunday. I will be getting up around 3 am that morning.
It seems like I have much to do before we leave but everything seems to always work out in the end.
OK, off to start my day.

Thursday - Trash day
The weather was better yesterday. The humidity was a bit lower, still a bit unpleasant but much better than what it was the day before.
Today it will be humid and warm. Drew has a freshman baseball game today in Dallas Center. Jess has a softball game tonight, not sure where.
The softball team played in Carroll last night and lost 5-3. It was close and another game they could have one if the coach would pitch our best pitcher. I am beginning to think she wants to lose.
I am getting ready for the trip to California. I leave Sunday and I can't wait. The weather will be good and getting away will keep me sane.
Drew rode his scooter to practice yesterday. He has his permit to drive it and I made a custom flag. We also put an In-Transit" tag on it. So he should be good to go. The things has been dying once in awhile but it ran well for him yesterday. It makes it easier with cell phones. He can call if he has trouble.
Dental appointment today but nothing else on the agenda.
Hope everything is going well for everyone.
Off to start.

It's the little things that get you
The weekend was wet and then hot and humid. Today really humid.
Drew had a baseball game and the team lost. I think the ten run rule came into effect. Jess played in a softball tournament and they lost all of the games and came in last place. 12th out of 12 teams. The coaches are blaming the players for not being "focused".
The latest excuse the coaches had were blaming the girls for having boyfriends. They said this is distracting them. I guess the teams that kick our ass are all lesbians. Whatever!
Both kids have games today. Drew's team is actually ok. They win more than they lose. He plays first base and does a good job.
Yesterday I worked like a dog. Pulled out bushes in the back yard and halled them to the burn pile out at Gene's. I also mowed and had the kids help me clean gutters (They were gross).
I leave for California Sunday and I am really looking forward to it.
