a two day write

Ah, the sun is shinning and we're that bit closer to Spring arriving and then summer.

It's Sunday morning and the clocks have sprung ahead an hour - and I'm sitting in Tracy's bed being a slough. Almost dreading the work I have to finish today. Tracy is downstairs working while I'm upstairs still procrastinating about the day. I'm actually going through photos of Shane's basketball games.

PART 2
I started this post yesterday and only wrote so much. As you can see. The rest of yesterday went well - I managed to finish the photos and upload them to a site for others to see and made a DVD for Shane and everyone else (team, family). I showed it to Tracy last night and she thought it was great - thanks babe.

It was a fun weekend. It was great to go to Shane's basketball games - brought back the memories of being a gym rat in school. His team played well and made it to the semi-finals however lost a tough game to eventual champs CC. Apparently they usually get smoked by CC, but this time was different. They played well, but down the stretch they fell down . . . one or two kids tried to do everything (the coach coming out in me). They had stayed in the game by working together - that's how CC played. Regardless, they should be proud of they way they played. Being on the sidelines it's easy for me to say that, knowing that it's never fun to lose, even if you leave it all out on the court/field.

It was a great atmosphere - parents, players and the game. Since it was close everyone was into it. As for Shane, he played well, including getting a basket on a foul shot. I could see after he made the his first shot how excited he was - along with everyone. He was so proud of himself for doing it. I was taking photos and wished I'd gotten that shot of his face - it's that moment when everything comes together and inside you feel like "OMG! I did it!". I know that feeling, you get so excited you're almost giddy . . . I saw that in Shane. As for his mom, Tracy was ecstatic - very proud of her son.

Shane's basketball DVD was done rather quickly as I was busy with baseball finance stuff - which I am still not finished. For some reason the software I'm using won't let me print 'official' copies of the tax forms. I'm asking a couple of CA's for help on this - I'm so slow when it come to baseball finances. I need to spend a afternoon updating the baseball finances - the problem is the PVR receiver at the house is busted, so I cannot sit and work with the TV on in the back ground. It's my little system.

Work is slowed down but still have some things to do - I've become the bill/money collector (must be my menacing figure) and finish writing a report. I plan to continue to look for a new job and hope to get into school - either one works for me!

Finally got my hair cut - feels much better than before . . . I feel clean. I need a shower and then do my own hair so it looks like I want it. Don't get me wrong, my hairdresser did a good job, but it's nice to wash it and get rid of all the little hairs that are around. On a side note, my hairdresser has a new bf and I noticed she had several bruises on her upper arms - like someone grabbed her. She also didn't look as cheerful as she has done in the past.

I've done enough rambling and must get something to eat and work on my report.
