Sometimes, I wonder...

Sometimes.. I just wonder.. how have I made it this far!!??!! Really, here are a few examples:

1. Corra and Bryce are on two different soccer teams, both in different age groups, different teams. Last night around 11:30pm I thought I should check the game schedule. (yes at 11:30 at night! For crying out loud) Both kids have soccer games on Saturday, both at 1:00, In two different towns 15 minutes apart from each other! *sob* Why did I just realize this NOW?? Not when the schedule was handed to me? *sob* Today though, I figured everything out, Mandaj's kid is on the same team and has agreed to take Corra to the game (thank you! thank you!!!), and I will take Bryce to his. I'll miss Corra's game (again this weekend, poo!) And I will work on duplicating myself in the mean time... sounds like a plan eh?

2. I always wondered why Blogspirit asked for email addresses, but never gave them to the author of the blog. (God am I stupid) I figured it would be apart of the "ala carte" options that they want you to pay for. Until I started surfing around in the admin area of my blog. (Do I have my moments, or what?!) Guess what I found!! (uh huh!) If you go to All Comments, click on edit comment, you can edit the comment, see the persons name, their email address and blog address. Good Lord, someone help me!! DUH!

3. (the knitting content) Remember this from like a month ago?

She has grown into this (and managed to duplicate)

please excuse the crappy photo, its cloudy and crappy today.

I ignored her something fierce to finish Lady E, and I am determined to finish these this weekend. One little problem. Just a little one, wee problem, tiny really...

see it? Its GLARING at you! Jumping out and screaming, LOOK at MEE!! You don't see it do you? clicky here and there is a big fat arrow pointing out my mistake (thanks to Mandaj ) that I didn't see until I was almost done with the gusset decreases (damnit) And ya know what? Its staying there. Damnit.

4. My notebook, with all my notes that I could have used for Bryce's graduation (Wednesday of this last week, Pictures soon) that contained my notes for the mini socks, is currently in a very, very safe place. I guess I'm going to have to knit another mini sock to come up with a decent pattern, oh poo!

Some days.. I just wonder... what happened to my mind? oohh.. that's right, I have kids! THREE of them!! I've lost my mind! Because I have no idea what I was thinking... No idea! Really!

Last Soccer games

This weekend, we ~~celebrated~~ was the end of soccer season. It started off with a bit o' sunshine, bitter gusts of wind, and ended in rain showers that looked like snow. We start with Bryce's game on Saturday. Bryce has the yellow ~~arrows~~ lines pointing at his head, and Josh the orange.

I belive that we lost the game, but Bryce sure was enjoying himself! Look at him run! Ahhh see that sunshine? *sigh*

Corra's game was today. They got a goal!! Oh, yeah, Corra has the pink ~~arrow~~ line pointing at her, Kyle the ~~blue~~ green. (For some reason today, I can not seem to draw an arrow)

check out my Corra there, Lookin' like a hardcore soccer player! When it started to rain, 10 minutes before the game ended. I put Bryce and Allysa in the van and let them watch a baby movie. One of the advantages of having to get there early is getting a good parking spot, so i was able to stand in front of the van and cheer for Corra. She was playing so well, defensively. She had her arms out so no one could get to close to her. I was telling her what a good job she was doing, and to keep the ball not to let the red team get it. I yelled "GOOD JOB CORRA" right then she knocked some kid over!! I meant good job keeping the ball, and not letting the other team get the ball, not playing rough...... Ok, maybe just a lil bit.

After the game was over, the kids were presented with their Coaches Appreciation award. See Kyle on the left (he is Mandy's son) and Corra to the right.

Check out the trophy! I have a feeling I'm going to be a soccer Mom for awhile. The kids had bunches of fun this season. And want to play again!! AHH! what HAVE I done?!!??

Sunday Game

Corra's soccer team played Brockway today. (tomorrow I promise, Fiber AND knitting content!)

We got a goal!! WHOOHOO!! We lost, the kids still had fun. Corra has the pink arrow looming above her head, and Kyle the yellow. Check out the kid with the Mohawk!! He totally should have painted it red for the game, totally. yeah.Now.. I will throw out a warning. Because this might come off as a rant. just might. So, that was your warning. As weak as that was. It WAS still a warning.

Corra and Bryce where at their Dad's this weekend. When I get over to the field ex MIL comes over to me. She hands me Corra's soccer pictures (MINE, I paid for them, MINE, MINE, MINE!) and tells me that Corra and her cousin where both stung by yellow jackets Saturday afternoon. They where trying to get their cat out of the tree by putting a stick up to the cat, and telling it to come down. (I'm thinking in my head, umm.. weren't you out there? Breathing DOWN their necks. Asking them: Why the HECK are you poking a stick in the tree??? Leave the cat ALONE and it will come down. *grumble* stupid woman. *grumble*) She said that she was ok, once she stopped screaming that she was going to die. But when she woke up on Sunday her eye was all swollen. Now, (Is it just cause this is me, or would another parent do this?) If your child's eye looked like this:

WOULDN'T YOU CALL THE BLOODY DOCTOR?!? Noooo!! ~~STUPID WOMAN,~~ MIL just gives her Benadryl. (at least she used her head. Her husband thought she was giving her sudafed) *grumble* What puts the big fat cherry on this cake, is BOTH ex in-laws ARE BOTH teachers!! AURGH! (ok one is retired. but still.. OHMYFREAINGGOSH!) ooohhh... AND C and B where supposed to be at their FATHERS! Where was he during all this?? WHY didn't I get a phone call when my child's eye started looking freakish? HUH? *SLAMING head on keyboard* AAAAUURRGGHHH!!

At least SOMEONE finds this FUNNY! *sigh*

This weekend's soccer games

Lets start with Bryce's game on Saturday. Shall we?

Bryce's game was in Brockway. We have to be at all game's 30 minutes before the game actually starts. Did tell you that Mike is home on break?

Yeapers. We where 20 minutes late. So we really only got their 10 minutes early, this makes me cranky. grr... But the Coach was even late. He was late for THE game! (Thank goodness, ~~cause if he wasn't we would have gotten yelled at.~~ ) Mike got the kids together and had them warm up. See him out there? Yeap, I got one good picture of Bryce, (Just for future reference's Green line/arrow is Mike, yellow line/arrow is Bryce and the red line/arrow is Josh. I'm having issues making arrow's today, can you tell?) and its after he FELL DOWN! All I can do is laugh. And pray, and save, and shop for a new camera for Christmas.

Check out the ninja, (his older brother plays on Bryce's team) he was being so cute, when they got a goal he would do this cute lil dance! Reynolds. won.

And onto Corra's game today against Brookville. One of the Ref's (think it was one of the Coach's for the Brookville game) was so super nice, telling kids on both teams what a good job that they where doing. Corra enjoyed herself. She got to throw the ball in "like a million times!" Corra has the pink arrow's shooting at her head, and Kyle has the red. Poor Kyle has the same cold that his teacher had. He didn't want to let his team down by not playing. Corra was running so hard her face was beet red. It was so hot out today too!!

They lost, but the kids had fun! Only 2 weeks left now.

Enjoy the soccer pic's. Trust me, the games are more fun. You probably heard me screaming, "GO BULLDOGS!"

p.s. I will post Fall pictures, and knitting later. I promise. ; )

Soccer Sunday

Corra decided to play in her game today. Since she can see again! They lost the game 2-0. They played VERY well!

The pink arrow is pointing to Corra and the orange yellow is pointing to Kyle. I belive.

I need to get a better camera. One with real zoom. Hmm.. Christmas maybe... maybe.

Enjoy the soccer pics!
