Not a big fan of the rain

Weather is terrible today and through the weekend. Rain, rain, rain....blah!!

Jess had a light night at the track meet last night. She ran two relays, the 4x800, they won. She ran a 2:17 split and looked really strong. The school record in the open 800 is 2:22 so they are going to have her run the open 800 next week so she can break that record.

She also ran the 4th leg of the 4x100. The won that as well and she had a very good split. 12:12. That is better than the school record as well so hopefully she can break that next week too. This would give her the long jump, 100, 200, 400, 800 and Sprint Medley school records.

So last night after the track meet, I called Drew to see how his day went and to let him know I was on the way home and he asked why I was calling. He seemed annoyed. I was trying to call him and chat him up and I think he was playing PlayStation and I was bothering him. He had no interest in talking on the phone....lol.

He has a golf match today but I am not sure if it will happen with the rain in the forecast.

Jess long jumps at Drake today around 9. It is supposed to rain but if it holds out, she should jump well over 17 feet.

Ok, off to start.

Not much

The weather is ok but it looks like we will have rain tonight and tomorrow.

Class went well last night. It is almost the end of the semester so that is good. Summer is almost here.

Not much going on. Jess has a track meet tonight and she long jumps at the Drake Relays tomorrow morning.

I am hoping the weather is nice on Saturday or Sunday because I have a bunch of yard work to do. I guess we will see what the weekend brings.

Off to start.

Reporting from the sideline

The weather has been awesome. I think it will continue through today and maybe through Thursday but rain is in the forecast for Friday.

Class was a bust last night. I covered PowerPoint and was going to go into Access but it wasn't installed on the computers. We were stuck so we ended early. There are only two more classes left so it looks like next week will be a long night.

Jess had a track meet last night and won the long jump with a distance of 16.7 feet. She won the 100, the 200 an the 400. The 400 time was a meet and a facility record. Which means it was the fastest time ever run on that track for a girl.

She is having trouble with her thigh. I am not sure if she strained a muscle or what but she is having a bit of pain and it is really tight and sore. It has been hurting for a little over a week and is getting a little worse. I had her ice it and she put icy hot on it when she went to bed. We need it to get better.

Drew is really liking golf. He had his first birdie the other day so that was good. As a Freshman they don't have many meets. I think 4 but he is practicing like crazy. I think that kid grows every day. He is now taller than me.

We got the information back from the insurance company on the hail damage on our cars. We are getting a little over $5,000 for all three cars. The hail totaled out two of them.

I think we are going to replace the carpet in the house. The adjuster came and looked at the roof yesterday so we should find out about that today or tomorrow.

Graduation is coming up in May and I have a bunch of work to do on the yard.

OK, off to start.
