Musings of an adventurous empty nest mom on everything under the sun.
Thursdays Cardinal-Gold game - for which I may have spent a few hours and gray hairs preparing - was a lot of fun, especially since the boys don't take it too seriously. Also, thankfully, no one was hurt! Well, not entirely true. My eyes might have been hurt when I saw this:If you know my son... Continue Reading →
I didn't join the usual group on a long trail run today. The IT band on my left knee has been barking way too much, and since I don't have any specific goals to run a long distance anytime soon, I thought it best to just start taking it easy with shorter (4.5 miles) less... Continue Reading →
I'm pretty sure I did that on Thursday and again today. Today I had 8 things on my To DO list - some fun, some chores, some money making blog work. I did 5 so that's not too bad when you consider I also spent time with the boyfriend. Anyway - my whole money saving... Continue Reading →
Yeah, this is how the night started out - the current parent liaison gives me this monstrosity to thank me for always volunteering for the little things when he asked. Fine, but I am not doing HIS job (by myself) next year! And now I have to keep this thing for a year. I'm already... Continue Reading →
Week 4 Pig Pen Inductee: Jacob Alsadek of Torrey Pines H.S.. Click on the link above to watch the video! OK, that's a bit of a teaser headline 🙂 (note: this post is in lieu of a game report form Friday night since the team lost 2-0 and 16 didn't even step on the field)... Continue Reading →
I swear this blog wont become all Friday Night Lights football but.....what's a proud mama to do but document her son's glory days eh? The team is blessed with a fabulous photographer who has pics up often on the same night after a game. Our #18 being a junior and having just come off of... Continue Reading →
16 recently flipped through some of the football and baseball game posts I've written over the years that he's played. When he got home from the Friday night high school football game (one in which he didn't even suit up to play), he said to me "You know how you wrote about the best baseball... Continue Reading →
Having no specific topic or opinion on my mind that wont offend a ton of people right now, I shall resort to the mundane - what I did on my summer vacation. Hang on. I don't get summer vacations. Damn. Fine then - here's what I've done pretty much since July, how's that? Work (day... Continue Reading →
With 15 moving up to the varsity level this year, he is truly the little bird in the big nest. (Get it? 'Cause they are Falcons?! - Hah! I kill me) Even a starting receiver in a Wing-T offense can barely see 5 balls thrown to him all season (like last year). So this upcoming... Continue Reading →
Yes, the days are long. That could mean it is summer and I'm loving the longer daylight hours such as last night when we stayed on Fiesta Island at our monthly bonfire later than ever. I was driving home at 8:45pm and noticed that while the sun was long gone, the sky was still clinging... Continue Reading →
