Softball/Soccer and Thinking Chair

Yesterday evening, I had a bad case of headache and couldn't breathe right. I went outside more often to get some oxygen. After a while, I decided to go and play slo-pitch (wish it is a fast pitch) softball.

To my surprise, I did pretty well - I did hit the ball and over fenced - bad news - it was foul ball! urgh!!... Why me - swing at last minute - We lost both games but we had a BLAST time. We laughed a lot. I've decided to play for the team - Pink Flamingo! Last fall, I played flag football - The Ladies. I think I'm losing my mind.... over Pink PINK PINK... but they are FUN to be with.

Kids were suppose to come along with me to the ball game with H. Mikaela fell asleep at 5pm. (oh great - you know what's that mean).... H stayed home with kids. (MY BREAK - hee hee).

Tomorrow - am nervous - will play indoor soccer. haven't played since ummm... I'm trying to remember - other than teaching kids during pe classes - as team.... probably 1991 (yikes...) It should be fun... (I'm def. out of shape! - but good way to lose weight - which I greatly need!).

Today, I'm thinking and thinking.... Wish I could borrow Blue's Clue's thinking chair. What should we do or get for H as Mother's day... Yikes... I want it to be special... She lost her mom 5 years ago... I get the sense that she misses her so much. I want to be something to be special for her... Actually, you want it to be special all the time... Hopefully will think of something real soon as its coming -- this sunday! yikes!!!!

:o) Will be back in a while! As we are going to see a freind's place for couple of hours. (adult conversation -yahoooo!!)
