Basketball


Okay -- I admit it- I am a basketball fan. I was so excited for last night's KU v. Davidson game. I thought what a breeze to walk into the final four without having to play a team that wouldn't challenge us. The first two games went by so smoothly -- shoot the walk on players saw time. So, certainly Davidson a 10th seed wasn't going to give us any problems! Boy was I wrong. After spending the weekend sick and on death's doorstep -- I geared up to watch part of the game - figuring I could fall back to sleep once it was a run away.
WRONG -- my heart was pounding the whole time. Who was this Davidson team???? Why were they hanging with us? And can someone please stop Curry? How can such a great play get over looked by the big teams? Davidson played tough and impressed me. They deserve a note of respect. They were good.
Thankfully my boys made it through. They will be taking on North Caroline -- hopefully they will pull through. I watched the 1988 championship game and would so love to watch another victory.

2nd Try

Okay, so I am going to try this again. Hopefully I will keep up.

I am off the wall busy at the moment -- who knew Spring could be so busy. I got my application in for the bar -- THANK HEAVENS!!! I swear that was a huge weight hanging around my neck. We finally got our daughter's senior pics order --- it's crazy expensive. We spent over a $1000 on Senior Pics!!! One of our dogs turned up lame. So we have to keep her in a kennel for 10 days -- and she is one of our most high strung! Thankfully, she has meds to mellow her out. Our youngest seems to be pulling it together at least she is passing almost all her classes. I swear teenagers!

Our next great adventure is for me to pass the bar and find a job so we can buy a house. Traci and I qualified for a loan but our financial guy wants to have us waiting until first the market slows down so we are not upside down and next until I am employed. I have a better credit rating than Traci and since I am not employed we can't use it for the loan. So, I guess we are waiting a few more months until that happens. Kind of disappointing but kinda nice since I am feeling overwhelmed with everything at the moment.
