Ahhhh, the winning feeling

Yes folks, that's right we won again! JV beat Payson in a real nail bitter 21-20 and it was down to the last seconds before it was in the bag. It was fun to watch but a little scary too! Text-guy played great and felt good about the game. Then, last night we won the varsity game against Payson 35-14. There were some beautiful plays that I wish I could have seen the replays on. Text-guy got to play at the end with pretty much the whole JV squad and he escorted TJ to within a foot of the goal line. The clock ran out or I'm sure we would have scored. It was great.

The weekend was pretty good. I was wrong about Sally's surprise though, she wasn't cleaning the house for me, she was cleaning her bedroom-and rearranging it. What you have to understand is that Sally is a pack rat and a scatterbug. Her room is a huge mess most of the time and she keeps everything! So cleaning her room, at least the kind of cleaning that allows the moving of furniture is a monumental feat! It WAS NOT what I had planned for the weekend and at age 11 she can't see the end from the beginning and started a project that she could not finish-at least not alone. Text-guy texted me and warned me not to come home-said I would not be happy with what I found but that she and her friends were trying to do a good thing but that the house was turned upside down. Well, I kept my cool--for a while! When I did yell, it wasn't about the mess, it was about Sally's attitude and reluctance to do the simple things I asked and then expecting me to accommodate her plans for the weekend! I have such a problem with ingratitude and refusal to see how good life is! Oh well, it all worked out in the end and we've slowly been putting her room back together this week. It's still not done but looking better and we got rid of quite a bit of junk. Why you have to keep lids to chapsticks long since lost or gone I do not know but I did manage to rid her of some things.

I got great news this past week! Billy Joel is coming to Salt Lake on Nov 29th! I'm going of course and can't wait! I'm hoping for decent tickets but we'll see, I know they'll go fast, he always sells out. I didn't even know he was touring again. I'd like to win the tickets and there is a contest on the radio right now to win them-just complete the lyric and be the 10th caller. Completing the lyric-no problem! being the 10th caller-big problem. How do people do it?

I'll finish with the lyric to complete they gave this morning, from 'Movin' Out' ... 'working too hard can give you a ______' HEART ATTACK! Duh!
