We Won

My granddaughter had her first softball(she plays pitching machine, coach pitch) game of the season yesterday(Tuesday). Her team won 16-11 altho I couldn't tell you alot about the game. I was the 3rd base coach and everything was moving quickly.

That is after the game finally got started. There was a hour delay in start time because of the field being tied up with other games.

We were all happy they played so well and enjoyed theirselves.

Words to ponder

Sometimes I read/hear a quote that speakes to me. Or words of a song. or maybe a tv commercial that speakes to me.

Today I heard words on tv that I've been pondering on:

"If you don't try you'll never know."

This could apply to anything in life.

No games

Well the kids ball season was supposed to start today(Saturday). But the weather last night had different ideas. Got a call this morning from the coach letting us know the games were cancelled today.

So I guess the ball games will officialy start Monday. My granddaughter is ready to play.

Bumpy practice

My granddaughter had ball practice today. We hadn't been there but a couple of minutes, when ever she missed a ball playing catch. Which resulted in a pump knot on her head.

We went and got ice to put on it. This helped the swelling, its hardly even swollen now, however there is going to be a bruise.

The really surprising part is she didn't cry at all. Now she's a little girly girl and still on the shy side some is why we were surprised she didn't cry. Guess she's showing us she's tougher than we think.

The coach decided to move her from right field to catcher's position now. We weren't too sure about that move but she will be in full catcher's gear and since this is coach pitch we shouldn't have to worry about wild pitches.

Guess she has some tomboy in her that we didn't realize lol. First game will be this coming Saturday. Except for the bump knot the practice went really well and the girls all did good. And the coaches too.

Spring fever

Well we did have ball practice Saturday. It was chilly and had to be cut short because of rain. This is a young team so hope they get enough practice in to know what to do.

The weather is supposed to be in the 70's this coming week but with the possibility of showers.

I wish I had a outdoor room if that makes any sense. A room that protected from mosquitoes and other insects. As well, as the elements of the weather but let you feel like you were enjoying the outside.

A room to eat outside in as well as invite others in for a visit. With nice comfortable outdoors furniture to relax in.

Oh well I can wish.

What do I call this

It is chilly tonight. Be glad when the weather decides to stay around 70.

Not sure what to call this post. Have a couple of choices lol. Could call it-Ugghhh dr part 3. Hubby went back to dr today with the same results as this past Mon.

Or I could call it- Coach wake up. Granddaughter is scheduled to have ball practice in the morning. However, it rained today and is supposed to be chilly in the morning. So wouldnt be surprised if we get up early then get sent back home again. Oh well, just have to wait and see.

Oh a more postive note granddaighter is writing her first name in cursive tonight. She is so smart.

Ughhh Doctors part 2

My hubby went to see the dr. that did his scope after work today. He drove over there just to be told the doctor isn't in we have to reschedule.

So he goes back again Friday. UGHHH

Tired today

I'm a night owl whose give out tonight lol. We climbed out of bed at 7:30 a.m. so my granddaughter could get ready for her first ball season practice this year. Just to get out there at 9 o'clock and hear the coach say it's too cold and windy to practice.Which it was but wish we'd knew sooner could have used the sleep.

But the day wasn't all lost. My daughter had to go to work, so my granddaughter and I worked on her reading all afternoon. She is doing so good. She's really motivated to learn and we do everything we can to make it fun for her.

Hope we have a goodnight sleep tonight lol.

IInteresting Reading

Thought I'd post while my daughter and granddaughter are outside practicing. My granddaughter has her first ball practice tomorrow for her new league, she moves up this year.


Ginger from Magical Holiday Home has started a blog network. These blogs will be centered around the special days that are celebrated at MHH. Some of the members have blogs for the holidays created already.

I'm rolling some ideas around in my head of blogs I could create to join the network. But this is a busy time right now so I'm still in the consideration stage LOL.

I do enjoy reading others blogs tho. Ginger has a new one I plan to keep up on. It's called Fairy Dust & Fairy Kissess. I like reading about anything magical.

Not feeling well today and computer is being a butt but maybe it will let me give you the link to MHH

Ughhhh

Don't mean to offend anyone but these doctors are getting on my nerves. We recieved a letter from the doctor that did the scope. Now my hubby has to go see hm next week.

When we called to see what was going on had to leave a number for them to return the call. When the secretary return the call she said the nurse said he needed to see this doctor because he did the scope. WTH his regular doctor gave him the results already. Another week to wonder.

On top of that we're in a moderate risk for severe weather tomorrow.

On a good note my granddaughter found out last night which softball team she'll be on. While our friend whom she's used to won't be her main coach he is the assisstant coach.

Hubby update

The doctor said my hubby did NOT have what we feared. Thank God He wants to scan it again at the end of the month to see if it went away on it's own. If it doesn't he'll probably want to remove it.

To be honest with you I've been pretty positive all week was pretty sure it would be ok. But today I woke up what iffing. I HATE it when that happens I know it's not good for me or anyone else.

This reinforces the saying "one day at a time" to me. We need to make sure we're the best we can be for ourselves and others. Enjoy life, enjoy the moment, enjoy family and friends. Look for the Good. Let Go and Let God. Live, Laugh and Love, Keep it Simple These are all sayings I know and wanted to remind myself while sharing with you.

I ask you to continue your good thoughts and prayers that it clears up all the way.

My sincerest thank you.

Serenity

At least it isn't raining today. Altho, there were some severe storms around last night.

It seems like the weather is always around to remind us there are somethings in life we have no control over.

Which usualy makes me think of The Serenity Prayer

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference.

2 years ago

Two years ago today our town was hit by a F3 tornado. The weather is fair today but looks like it could be a stormy day tomorrow.

I'm living by the words "One day at a time" right now. And doing my best to think positively, so far I'm doing a pretty good job.

Working on posting something to my blog right now even if it's a short post.

One foot in front of the other, baby steps, do what I can do.

Update

Well hubby got out of the hospital last night and went back to work today. I think he's trying to stay busy. He probably is bored too he spent 4 days and 3 nights in the hospital. He has several different meds to take.

When they did the test on his stomach the doctor noticed something else. So we're waiting a week to see exactly what that is. Everyone please send good vibes this way.

Thanks
