WOW then!

It's been a long while since this blog wordage placement! Apologies to yous and to my life record keeping - it's almost been a month!

Needless to say it has been very busy with bball; let me recap the road trips.

One weekend: Fly one hour out of Anchorage airport to Bethel, a village high school. Fly home Sunday. Interesting, fun, quick, and travel inspiring.

The very next week/end: Wednesday after school bus drive 7-8 hours to Valdez High School for 5 days of a varsity only tournament. Lots of sitting and staring, eating, napping, sitting, card playing, and sitting. One day we got up at 8 a.m. had 3 meals throughout the day, sat around forever, and didn't play till 9 p.m.! WHOA! It was fun and all but own house and bed is better after the flight and games the previous weekend. Hmm....

Then this weekend we played 3 games in a row starting Thursday at home, and then back to back Anchorage travel Friday night and all day Saturday. Thank God Casey came Saturday to rescue me from another late night bus ride, as I got home at 1 a.m. Friday and had to get up at 6:30 Sat. I must record that our bus was 2 hours late picking us up yesterday morning, so we sat at our high school for that time just waiting to go to Anchorage...argh!

All nit picking aside it has been a fun and interesting roller coaster that I'm glad has landed well restedly onto this day of sun. Sunday too, ha! It's -19 degrees with the sun shining....we get a streak of that really cold, clear sky towards the end of winter fyi.

And side so, my classroom is a mess of papers from substitute teachers, but alas we have a regular week of school for once this week, and our last 2 regular season games. Due to a family emergency for the head coach, tomorrow I run practice as if I were the head coach! As if I am going to be it from here on out! Well from March on out! I'm officially taking over next year! WOOO!

Casey and I are about to go investigate some acreage down the road. Looking to buy some parcel(s) by the end of summer! Glad to be home! Excited to hear more about Pepper, Fresno, George, and Mike's lives. I've missed Casey, home, family, and down time.
