Tis the season

You know cold season...

Anymore though, it seems like this season is always around.

While coaching the Middle School Girls Basketball I have to spend time with them and be around them. I don't have a problem with this at all. I like coaching them, it's the fun part of my day.

The not so fun part. Schools/ kids are germ carriers.
I have yet to walk into the Gym two times in a row and come out cold free.

For the past few days I have been suffering through on of the many cold's I will catch this basketball season.
Taking airborne religiously, trying to get sleep, trying to eat well.
Taking Tylenol PM every night.
Although, I don't fall asleep as soon as I'd like, but eh I'll take what I can get.

You know it's bad when you walk in the gym and the girls and other coach who are across the gym say.... or rather yell "Wow, you look like you don't feel good."

Yeah, I know. I'm not a glamours person when I'm sick.
I'm still working on that.

On another note, the weather has reached above the negatives! What a heat wave....
I could almost leave the house without my long johns. I'm so sick of the cold weather.

Summer are you there? Summer please come back I miss you! I NEED you! Summer? SUMMER????

oy

Today at work, I'm actually working.

Okay wait, let me rephrase that. I do work everyday. But you know I allow myself to have little breaks when I finish something. During these little breaks I like to serf the internets.
Oh don't act like you don't! Your reading this aren't you? (point proven, ah thank you)

But today of all days, the Bosses (all for of them to be exact) are in the office working on their 2008 files. Which is fine, I get that they want to actually look at the paperwork from their business in 2008.

What really drives me nuts is I'm sitting at the desk trying to get other things I need to have done, finished.
But while in the middle of that, I have to print off old invoices, or hey "Run and grab the old deposits" Or do you have the file on "so and so?"

Fine, that is really all okay. (I think anyways.)
Here comes the part that makes my blood boil.

After they are done with the file or paper, they just toss it aside.
Don't put it back in the right spot and go ahead and mix all the paperwork together. I mean, your right. It didn't take me anytime at all to get this office straightened and in order.
Go ahead, it's not like you don't pay me overtime or anything.

Oh it's fine. Go ahead and put some 2007 documents in with the 2008's, I would too.
Oh and thank you for not putting that file back in it's alphabetical order home.

It's only 3:00 and I'm working late to finish what I still have yet to complete because I'm too busy being asked to do 5 things at once.

Final Basketball Update

Well Class C State Basketball is over. The end results weren't to bad.

1st place: Highwood (I'd be lying if I said I was happy they won)
2nd place: Belt (They played a great game, they were so close. They were short only 3 points)
3rd place: Twin Bridges


I'm glad it's over, now life can get back to normal.
No wait it can't. I'm in the middle of the little girls basketball season.

Belt however, they will get it next year. And by it, I mean they will beat Highwood.

State Basketball Update

Last night we were able to listen to the game over the radio.
The game over the radio was good, I can only imagine what it was like to watch it.

The girls played a great game. Both teams did well.
The entire game it was close. For most of the game Twin Bridges held the lead by 5 to 8 points.
Then Belt would get things tied up but just couldn't get over that tied number.

The game went on like this forever.

Finally with 20 seconds left, the teams were tied, and the Belt girls made a huge 3 pointer from the corner.

The game ended at 50 to 47.
Talk about on the edge of your chair close.

The Twin Bridges Girls play this morning
The Belt girls play tonight at 8:00
Good Luck to both teams.

Spring? Are you there? I've missed you

Well today had potential to be a good day.
I woke up, kinda well rested. But not really
(I won't go into detail about what I witnessed last night in my living room I will tell you it involved a cat and a mouse. It was loud, it was scary and it woke me from my humble slumber) I'm afraid I won't ever be the same.

But I had time to make a lunch to take with me. (Okay so I just grabbed a couple slices of cold pizza and a water bottle) But you have to start somewhere right?

I drive to work, and notice wow it's kinda nice outside (besides the wind, but that's an everyday thing) I'm working away and notice the time.
"Hey it's time to eat lunch!"
And that's when things begin to slowly go down hill.
First off the wind picked up, we had small trees flying across the pasture.
Then it began to snow.
Then the temperature dropped.
That's right that wicked winter isn't over yet.

For the love of Pete, I would like to have one nice Easter in the state of Montana.
No wind.
No cold.
No snow.
I've always pictured being able to wear my spring pastel's and sit outside while enjoying my easter basket.

So to make myself feel better, I've printed off several different recipes that I'm going to try.
One being a 14 layer cake. Yep I said 14 alright.

And tonight I want to make chocolate chip muffins. So I can eat them in the mornings with my coffee.

Because really what gives better comfort then chocolate?

In sports related news:

Middle school girls basketball is going good. Those girls crack me up. We have our first games next weekend.

State tournament is currently taking place.
Belt played Big Sandy today. (I hope Belt won)
The winner of that game is scheduled to play Twin Bridges tonight.
It's single elimination.
Currently I'm rooting for the home team.
Which technically is both teams.
Here's hoping to a good game.
Go Belt!
Go Twin Bridges!

Edited to add:
I was told the tournament was a single elimination. Thankfully it isn't, it's a double elimination tournament.

This blog feels like a diary to me at times, a friend that I can tell anything to.
Even though, there are still some things that I just can't write down.
Not yet.
Maybe someday I will.
I'm hoping things will get back to how they are supposed to be.
maybe then I will be able to write it down.

life

I don't know if I'm coming or going.
Life changes whether you want it to or not.
If you don't keep up, life will leave you behind in the dust.

Currently I'm chocking on said dust.
Hopefully one day I can take a breath, and catch up once again.
