Have I mentioned how I totally screwed-up? Yep. Completely. Mama-llama-ding-dong.
I signed-up for basketball and flag football and baseball. In my defense, it’s impossible to tell by their infrequently updated websites when the seasons will start and stop. The boys have been begging to play flag football for possibly two years. And after a year off, Jake’s ready to give baseball another crack. Meanwhile basketball has been so much fun I can’t believe we’ve waited until now to try it.
And so it’s the calm before the storm. I just spent an hour getting all the practices and games on my calendar. Including the absurd 4PM start times– doesn’t anybody work in this town?! It looks as though next week we have 4 different practices and 3 games. Somehow the football gods shined their glory upon us and put the boys on the same team. And it seems the gods of baseball are the same divine beings. This past Thursday I watched from the warmth of my car and my laptop as the boys played football in the…. wait for it…. snow.
So the good news is, it appears there are only two weeks of “Mom, what did you do??” and then basketball ends.
Pray for rain.
