Rock Lobster!!!!

So this weekend opened the home season for VEU softball. Friday night was positively frigid out there. Yes it was only in the low 50's/high 40's, however, I live in MIAMI!!!! I am not used to nor equipped for that kind of cold, and the WIND!!!! It was just brutal.

I sat out at the field wearing multiple layers and a blanket, and I was SO COLD!!!!! I wound up hanging out by the grill at the concessions stand just so I could stick my hands over the flames whenever they'd open the hood. Then, I sat under a quilt with a former player's mom.

Team split the games on Friday night. Which meant best friend was pouty, and I went home. I know well enough now that if they lose to leave her alone. She is very hard on herself. But such is the life of the head coach.

Saturday was a beautiful, cool, SUNNY day. Got to field at 9:30 AM for 10:00 game to watch the warmup. They won both games, and I stayed to talk to her for a bit while there was another game. I left at almost 3:00 PM. My face is SOOOOOO sunburned. :o( And the irony is that I am the first person to yell about wearing sunscreen. D. had a good time playing with a friend from school and one of the player's brother.

Saturday night I took myself to the batting cages, and hit about 120 balls. I LOVE to go to the cages. It is very therapeutic for me. Took Danielle her glove that I was babysitting.

Yesterday, the games got cancelled due to weather. (It rained in the morning, and was gorgeous the rest of the day.)

So after giving myself the rest of the week and the weekend off, I am back to the books tomorrow. It would be too easy to lose what I have learned, especially since I am not using it right now. So, tomorrow, I devise a study plan, and work on my weaknesses. I am sending out my licensure application today, and I hope to take the test at the end of March. So, my life still remains study, study, study. With some softball thrown in for stress relief.

This weekend I am taking D. to Wannado City, and will sit in the Eagles nest with my books until he is ready to go. Could be a whole day. Also want to see "Ghostrider."
