- Soccer season started today…the first loss of my son’s career went along with it. I dont want to complain, but the ref was a parent from the other team, and he was coaching from the field. he also did not call any… I mean ANY bad throw-ins against the other team…there were about 5 by my count. he also did not know the lay out or the penalty box leaving each goalie to handle the ball in the smaller goalie box. at least he was fair on that account. My team had a bye today. next week we play a team with at solid coach that I respect…I hope to wipe up the field next saturday afternoon
- The interior of the house is finally done.really it only took two years. in that time we painted the house, tiled a couple of floors, removed the popcorn texture from the ceilings, put down laminate and. this was the long list. there is still a few other things we want to get done, but they are one day projects. next in line the exterior of the house. fresh paint, some new landscaping….things like that.
- School is in…for about three weeks now. the girls are settling into the new campus, and my son has made the adjustment to going all day long in first grade. I havent done anything in the garden yet, but with hopefully cooler weather ahead, we’ll get some winter veggies in the ground in the near future.
- Feeding the hungry. the school changed lunch suppliers this year. the jury is still out on this company. the food..although it is supposed to be good for you doesnt taste good to you. my kids are not crazy about the new menu. with the change, the free and reduced lunch option for low income families was tossed out the window. the principal said tha it would cost between $25 and $30 thousand a year to keep this option going. for this the School council stepped in and bought makings for sandwiches and other snacks for the kids that dont have a healthy lunch to eat. the only requirement is that the kids are hungry.
- New computer: I’m liking the new laptop. I think i’ve gotten used to the new keyboard but not the mouse. I think we need to get a wireless setup for mousing. it’s the HP artist Edition loaded with music editing/composing along with several Corel programs. I reloaded the desktop computer and set it up in the girls room…no internet, but plenty of homework opportunities.
- I applied for two jos this week. the first at Carls Jr on a wim. I happened to be getting lunch at the time…the other at a home center that is not either on the big two national chains. I applied for a lumber handling job. something that I spent many years doing at the conglomerate guitar company.
- I stopped loosing weight. Honestly, I having been trying at it the last few weeks. I’ve still cut out the sugar and soda, but I’ve been atttending parties and get togethers where I’ve partaken a little more than I should have….Tomorrow is a new day. current weight… 200 lbs
- I’ m playing in a band now. I auditioned last week, and I guess they liked me. Palying rhythm is the place where i’m comfortable, and I seemed to fit in just fine. I think my overall feel is a little harder thn the rest ofthe band, but I can tone it down a little. the band “Remedy 4 Life” is a n outreach that started at Sonrise church in Santee. you can read more about the band here.
