My soccer star....

Tuesday night was Maddy's first soccer practice. There were only enough 6th graders signed up to have two teams, so they will rotate all of them on two teams, Thunder and Lightning, throughout the season. Each week they will regroup and two different groups of six will play each other. Maddy is super excited for the season to start and she was on cloud nine all day Tuesday.

On another note...we are back down to one computer for all of us. Daryl ordered a new laptop and for two sweet days, it was a little better. Then, after Daryl had created almost all of his power point presentation for his dissertation(and not backed it up...because hey...it is a new computer), the hard drive died. So we are back to one computer, three busy teenagers , one dissertation writing hubby, and an easily amused by Dora on the computer toddler fighting for the computer. And not surprisingly, I get it once everyone has gone to bed--when I am too tired to even care, or early in the morning before everyone gets up--when I am too busy getting everyone ready for the day. So postings are likely to be few and far between until Daryl is done with his dissertation, or I learn to stay up late!
