Chalk art never goes out of style. No matter how old you are, it is still a lot of fun. Stephanie came over yesterday afternoon. It was probably one of the most miserable days of the year to be outside. I know… I mowed and edged the yard. 61% humidity at 95 degrees Fahrenheit. You’d think we were in Houston. *whew*.

Stephanie and Carrie made some really pretty pictures on the driveway. They will be nice to look at until our next rain.




We had basketball practice this afternoon. The boys are really working hard.

The girls’ volleyball team had their first scrimmage tonight. They had a good time and it was fun to watch.

I didn’t get any of my schoolwork done tonight. Why? Hmmm… let’s see:


• 255pm – leave work to go to kids’ school
• 305pm – pick up boys team and Carrie from school, drive to practice and coach ball practice
• 440pm – go to house for Carrie to change into uniform
• 5pm – drive towards Norman for the volleyball scrimmage
• 525pm – realize someone gave me the wrong directions to the scrimmage and change directions
• 550pm – sit in traffic on I-35 in the construction zone
• 8pm – drop off Carrie’s teammate at her home
• 820pm – go to garden just before dark to pick vegetables
• 835pm – microwave and eat leftovers for dinner
• check e-mail while eating and download/edit/e-mail pictures from camera
• 936pm – talk to Linda in Norman on the phone while working on blog
• 10pm – have difficulty getting these _____ pictures to post
• 1038pm – post blog

Of course, most of these are estimated times, but they’re really pretty close. Yes… we were late for the scrimmage.

I’m out of time and I need to get to bed.

later…
