Five Things

1)  Daisy Mae and Sweet Pea have joined their first soccer teams.

Would you like to hear something super convenient?

Daisy Mae's Soccer Schedule:

Games: 4:30 and 5:20 on Thursdays at Field A

Practices: Saturday mornings at 9am at Field B

Sweet Pea's Schedule:

Practices: Thursdays 5pm at Field B

Games: Saturdays 9 and 10am at Field A

Daisy Mae had her very first game last night.

And her own cheering squad.

Pssst! Daisy Mae!

Don't lay back on the goal!

Daisy Mae!

Pay attention to where the ball is!

Focus, Daisy Mae!

Focus!

What?!

A ball got past you?

How on earth could that be?

And now, dear readers, I would like to present to you:

Why children who are in kindergarten should not play soccer:

1)  They don't get it.

2)  They don't know which direction the ball should go.

3)  When they other team scores, the defeated team claps along with the proud parents, simply because, again, they do not know what is going on.

4)  Thrice I saw the goalie leave his/her post to try to make a goal.

Thrice.

5)  They don't get it.

6)  Once I saw a boy from the sidelines join in on the soccer fun.  No matter how many times coach called him back, he kept playing.

Why?

7)  Because kindergarteners just don't get it.

But, alas.

They are stinkin' cute to watch.

2)  My laundry room is still not finished.

But that is neither here nor there.

3)  It's time for . . .

The Comment of the Week!

This week's winner goes to Kendra with her made-up term of what she refers to as Buns of Steel.

She said, and I quote,

"We refer to Buns of Steel as the “Hus-buns” in my world."

So, there you have it.

The only thing slightly disturbing about this comment, on my end, is that I was referring to Jason's Buns of Steel.

Remember Jason?

Attention all:  I only said he had Buns of Steel because his Buns shattered my window.

I do not technically know, nor do I care to know any more about my brother-in-law's hindquarters.

Thank you.

On a different note, yes, The Lumberjack definitely has Hus-Buns.

Go say hi to Kendra . . . she is always full of recipe deliciousness.

4)  I must take Handsome Dude to the eye glasses place next week to pick out new frames.

Please pray that the Lord will guide me to the most indestructible, and of course handsome, pair.

Thank you.

5)  It has come to my attention that I have high cholesterol.

Could it be because I am too chub?

Maybe it is because I pretend to be on Weight Watchers?

Perhaps it is because I only exercise every third Tuesday?

Or maybe . . . just maybe . . . it is just genetic.

Yes!

I will go with the last reason.

But, nevertheless, I must go on a low cholesterol diet.

Which means, I need to cut way back on beef.

Um . . . hello?

What am I supposed to do with all this beef then?

Hmmm . . . a quandary.

So, I need to cook more chicken, fish, and meatless entrees.

And I am going to be completely honest.

I won't eat fish.

Why anyone would eat fish is beyond me.

So, dear readers, if you have any splendid chicken or meatless recipes you would like to share, please do.

Any thoughts would be warmly accepted.

And no cheese, people!

I must stay away from cheese, too.

What is the world coming to?

That is all.

Have a fantabulous weekend!
