Busy in the Wheelhouse

With the way things are going it looks as if these "catch up" posts are becoming a norm for me. Things just seem to be really crazy.



I have been working on trying to write a post now for a couple of days. There is just so much to write about that it seems to be taking me a long time and is really overwhelming at times. So, what I have decided to do is make a new post for each topic that I am trying to catch up on, just taking it one step at a time.



So here it goes...

Hello again

Wow...i guess I am going to have to do another update for the month of May. I can not believe that 1 whole month has almost gone by since my last post.

The biggest update is that school is almost out for the summer. With that comes the days of living life indoors. We actually broke a heat record today of 110 F. By about the beginning to mid July it will actually be too hot to even cool off in the pool. Depending on the pool size the water temperatures can actually get close to 100 F.

Rather than list out all the latest I will do my best to keep up with posting more later.
Until then..............

Quick Update

Here is a quick update on what I have been up to this past month...

-Worked some more on our house. It is coming into the home stretch...maybe...I think it will always be something that is ongoing. It has turned out really nice and we are really enjoying it.

-Both boys started a new hockey season and they are playing on the same team. That makes it SO nice as we will not always have to be going in different directions during the week and on the weekends, too. Their team is called the Admirals and their jerseys are green. They have only played one game so far. I will post pictures of them both in action soon.

-Tyler had travel skill assessments (kind of like tryouts) for hockey and Kyle had the same except it was for soccer. We are not sure if we want them committing to club teams right now as they are huge time commitments however, it has been a good experience for them.

-I am in the middle of my soccer season. We are currently playing in our seasonal tournament. Last I looked, I think we are in 1st place. Yea! We still have the payoffs to get through though.

- The kids have been working hard on sticking with their school work as we are upon the last few weeks of school here. I can't believe another year has already gone by.

-Planning another trip to see my sister and family soon. She is just about finished with her masters work and getting ready to graduate. Big Kudos to her and congratulations!

-Followed the entire season of Big Brother 9. Adam won! Yea Adam. I am glad to see him win it. I actually liked him from the beginning. Also, he claims he is going to give 100K of his winnings to Autism research. I have to say that after watching him through out the season, he seems to have some autistic tendencies himself. hummm?

-Still following The Bachelor. Only one word for this season so far...."whatever"! I guess it has a few more weeks to go before we find out who "the girl" is. One is very high maintenance and the other very reserved and laid back. Totally opposite! It will be interesting to see what type he will go for. With them having such different personalities he HAS to be leading one of them on. again...whatever

-And last but definitely not least....The reason for the season....The Stanley Cup Playoffs....oh yea...it is either on the TV or the radio (or Internet, sometimes). They are already through playing the first round and now there are 8 teams still battling it out in the second round. I wonder what team will claim Lord Stanley this year? We shall see...

due for a new post...

wow...how time flies. Yep still working on the house and have not been on the computer much. I will try to do some catching up here in the next few days. With all the time that has passed I have quite a bit that I can write on.
