I was only called a "B" once today. He was one or Cleary's kids and wasn't where he was suppose to be.



last few days have been hectic. On Monday, rain went away just in time for practice. We putted forever. Had willamette Methods class after that.



tuesday: Stayed pretty dry during practice. Did a couple putting drills that Dave had given you a couple of years ago and the winners got treats. We chipped at a bucket on the greeen and that went fairly well. Went home and had to do pictures for the seniors before the awards night at 6pm. It was only about two hours long. got the whip, flowers, and $30 at Outback. Your dad and I will eat well some evening. Got home just in time for Leverage. That was about the same time your dad got home too.

today we are going to the driving range to see how everyone hits the ball. After that, your dad and I have a SAY golf meeting at 6pm. Who knows how long that will last.

Nice talking to you. Can't wait to talk to your dad tonight.

MOM

I am exhausted. When I got home your dad and sister asked me if I had looked at my eyes. I have HUGE dark circles. Let me tell you why. I woke up at 4:45. Actually, it was alot earlier. I froze last night. Your dad and the puppies had all of the covers. I woke up at 1 and really never went back to sleep.

Left school at 6am this morning. Both Erika and I drove. Got to Troutdale at 7am and dropped the team off at Shari's while I went to my coaches meeting. Went back to pick them up.

Didn't swim real well. Alot of people were slower today, not just Salem-Keizer people. Allison ended up 7th in the 200 IM and the girl's 200 free relay endied up 9th. they beat South again. Yahoo. That was their main goal.

Went to California Pizza Kitchen on the way home. (Can't wait to go in Palm Springs. I'm sure I will be thinking of you.) We each ordered a different pizza and shared. I brought some BLT pizza home for your dad for dinner. He Liked that. Your sister had a Chicken Pot Pie.

NOw we are sitting on the couch and your dad is at McKay for a basketball game. The puppies were growling at each other until they got a treat.

Have to go back to school tomorrow. That is going to be hard. The girls are excited to practice one more day.

Glad Dave asid that he needs you. That should make you feel good. You must really be hitting the ball well compared to everyone else.

Get healthy and have fun this weekend. I can't wait to hear how Alex plays.

MOM

Right now, your dad hs two puppies. Maddie is on his lap and Lexi is right next to him. He is very warm.

Right now, your sister is in my bedroom watching TV. I don't kow what she is watching.

Right now, I am doing this.

No butt holes today. My sub gets those tomorrow. I won't miss that at all.

Tomorrow morning, we are leaving at 5:55am to head up to state. I will drop them off at Shar's in Troutdale to eat breakfast, go to a coaches meeting then go and pick them back up. Meet actually begins at 9:30. It will be over by 1:20, then we are going to California Pizza Kitchen. The one we took you and D to. I should be home around 4.

Your dad still has a puppy on his lap. Your sister is still watching tv and I'm still doing this.

The weather has been very nice. 56 today. Kristin went to the driving range and said that she hit the ball well.

Your dad still has puppies, your sister is still watching tv and I'm still doing this.

No other news. Have you heard about your test schores yet?

puppies, tv, this.

Love

MOM

Day ws just ok today. First period I had a girl tell me that it was buul shit that I didn't let her wear a cami in PE which caused her to have two unexcused non dress. Wrote a referral. @nd period--told me something was f-----up because he didn't try to do a pull up. He got on the f---ing chair and that ws effort enough. Sent him to inschool suspension. 3rd period, my gang bangers were not here and that was a good thing.

The prep went better, but I really didn't do a whole lot. Actually cleaned up my desk a bit. Tomorrow, I have to write lesson plans since I won't be threr Thursday because of state.

Practice went well.

Ran over to Willamette after practice to see if we could practice there tomorrow. Yes, we get to.

Your sister went to the putting green and called after a half hour saying she was done. I asked her if she chipped. She stayed longer. It ws her early release day today. It is time for golf to start so she cannot come home early.

Your dad is at school for a make-up game with Redmond girls. He should be home by 8pm.

That's it for now. Hope you had a good day.

MOM

Here it is.

Saturday ws a good swimming day. The girls 200 free relay shocked South Salem. They thought they had it in the bag. Guess what? They didn't and we won. the boys 200 free relay swam really well and won too. Pizza King and Keroke was fon but they were not very nice to us. We willnot go back there.

Sunday: Played golf. I should never do that after sitting at a swim meet for two days. Played like crap but it was a nice day to walk and be out there. Came home and did nothing but sit out on the patio in shorts and a sweatshirt. The puppies loved that. Your sis and dad had eggs and bacon for dinner and I had broiled cod. Went to bed really early. Was very tired.

Today: Had practice at 10am. The kids had played commando last night so they were a little sore. Didn't do too much, just stretched them out.

Came home, had lunch, then your dad and I went to costoc (after he helped you) and the store. After that, we came home, I read a little and took a nap. Your dad watched "The Greatest Game Ever Played" Whe I woke up, started watching NCIS and am doing that now. Waiting for The Closer at 6pm (our time).

Tonight as soon as I finish this, we are having chicken.

HOpe you had a nice weekend. Stay in touch.

The puppies miss you.

MOM

Good morning. It has been awhile and still not much has happened. Right now each puppy is on one side of me, sleeping on the couch. Your sister is upstairs doing something and your dad is playing golf.



Yesterday was quite eventful. Almost everyone had best times. One girl didn't because she was sicker than a dog and for some reason two of my girl butterfliers didn't swim well. It was the first time for both of them at district.



The boys dropped alot of time. Burger swam well holding back in both the 200 and 500. Katelyn Lindsey moved up to 6th in both the 200 and 500. You know about Kraig. Mrs. Bello's junior daughter, who almost didn't make the team dropped 7 sec. in her 100 back and made it to the consols. I told the relays to cruise since they only had to get in the top six, so if they don't false start, they will have some great swims. I had a freshman boy go a 24.99 and another, although he lost the swim off go a 25.15. Looks good for the future.



Today after the meet, we are going to Pizza King in Albany for a team dinner and Kareoke. Everyone is really looking forward to that.



If anyone makes it, we will go to state next thursday. I think that is as far as we are going to get. I don't think that we will make it back to the finals.



Looks like the boys will end up third and the girls 5th. That's ok.



tomorrow is golf day and I don't know what we will do on Monday.



Golf starts next Monday and I have a meeting on Wed. Let's see how many girls I have this year. I have 9 tournaments set up and can have one more. Don't know hwo many frosh are trying out, but hopefully a few.

I had to take a time out just now because the computer turned off because of updates. I hate that.

I'm going to put your dad's new Fray album on his ipod. I think I'm going to get him a new one for our anniversery. He doesn't have much room.

Have a great weekend.

MOM

Not much has happened.

Yesterday there was a sub for Cleary so I was in charge of uniforms and locks. Made the day go fast. Practice was good.

this morning, Kristin and I had to take in the little car. Something is wrong with the radiator. It leaks. Since we did that, I got to school late and I have felt behind all day. Practice was good again today.

Tonight, Kristin and I had shrimp salad. Your dad is at a boys basketball game. He is not looking forward to it. they are not playing too well.

Puppies want to see their Katie.

That's it.

MOM

Thought I would blog today. I blogged on Friday, but Idon't know if you saw it.

Mot much has been going on here either. Yesterday we had the JV District at Willamette. Everything went well. The meet took a little over two hours. After that, the varisty kids that wanted to, worked on starts and relay starts. I was out of there by 4pm.

Came home last night and fixed boneless pork chops and augraten potatoes (for your dad).

Took a bath and read a book. Your dad started Eagle Eye.

This morning, the puppies work up really early. Your dad got up with them. Had breakfast, worked on the computer and played an hour of guitar hero.

Your dad got to play golf.

Had a swim meeting at 1pm. Scored out the meet and right now the girls are 5th and the boys are 3rd. Could be interesting. Hope everyone is healthy. Right now, Kraig is really sick.

Right now, your dad is at The Ram meeting with some SAY Golf people. When he gets home I will fix Kristin and him soup and sandwiches. I'm going to have brioled chicken and a salad. I found a new dressing, Newman's Light Honey Mustard. It is good.

Tomorrow is busy. School, without Cleary in the lockerroom. Her sub is male. I hate it when we are handing out uniforms. Have a golf meeting, then a SAY Golf meeting. Don't know if I will be able to blog tomorrow night.

HOpe you did well on your Physics test.

Take care of Dylan and don't get the crud again.

See you April.

MOM

Thought I would do this now. don't know when I will have time again.

Not much has gone on. We are in the middle of our taper. Alot of people are getting sick. Kraig missed practice yesterday and I haven't seen him today.

Wedensday, we actually had dinner together. don't remember what we had, just that we were all home together.

Thursday after practice, your sister dropped me off at H&R block so that we could do taxes. You got the call from us, but since we make so much it didn't matter. got home rather late, had dinner, took a bath and went to bed. we did watch Burn Notice while eating.

Today, classes were fine. Your sister is in here studying since she has release. She is really waiting for me to go to the bank so that she can surf the web. After the bank, I need to go see rich to sset up a tournament in May.

Tonight after practice, we are having a spghetti feed in the cafeteria. some of the swimmers will go to the girls BB game against sprague. Could be a good game.

Tomorrw is the JV district meet at Willamette. It starts at 1pm, rthen on sunday I have the seeding meeting for district. I don't get to play golf that day. Oh well.

As soon as Dave knows where you are staying for conference let me know so that I can try to stay close to you. Maybe we can do some more shopping.

Hope you have a nice weekend. Get healthy and stay out of trouble.

MOM

Sorry about not blogging. Been pretty busy with a swim meet on Tuesday.

Sunday: played golf and watched the Super Bowl. Fitz came over and had some cheese sticks, nacho's and lasgana. Your dad is still feeling the effects of the dinner.

Monday: the start of a new semester. It went well. 1st period is loaded. Too many girls for the lockerroom. Couldn't hand out all of the locks until tomorrow. Needed to find laces to put them. Swim practice went well. got everything figured out for district. Things fell into place, so alot of people get to go.

Tuesday: Second day of new classes. It went ok today. Also had the Winter Court assembly today. I stayed in my office to get stuff done for the swim meet. We left for the meet at 12:40. I ate my lunch on the bus. We swam North today and won. Alot of people got first who usually don't. It was neat to see them excited.

Now I am writing this and watching Leverage. It is one of your dad's favorite shows. He cannot watch it because he is at McNary at a WS boy's basketball gime. I have no idea what Kristin is watching.

Your dad and I have to be at Creekside tomorrow morning at 6am. I never want to hear about you getting up early, and tell Ally to chill about an 8am class.

Do you know where you are playing golf this weekend? Who all is going?

Good luck on your tests and stay out of trouble.

MOM
