Today is Wednesday (yes, it is - in New Zealand) and Wednesday is my massage day.  Wahoo.  Incredibly extravagant but it's been a life saver for me.  Absolutely beautiful 'hot stone' massage.  Mmmmm.  Then I splash out even more afterward and get a laksa at a local Malaysian takeaway place.  Two positives.  I LOVE WEDNESDAYS!

That is great news Del. I was just wondering about that during my drive to Nashville (and back) today.

And that is my positive. No more long day trips until next school year. And this one was good. The classroom I visited was soooo well run.  :2thumbsup;

T ball rules

the first time Bubba hit the ball he ran to first base yelling, "Mom did you see that ?"

what was so much fun was when Missy and Allen were younger they were on the same basketball and baseball teams -- they are 18 months apart but it was like having twins

some of my best memories was when my three children all had sports --- fun and bringing snacks was a thrill

I have some cute ideas that I used that will make your snacks the best of all the moms ....

I spent Saturday mostly naked and mostly in bed too! (Hubby was there so there were also naked activities that I won't detail here!)

 :o Teachers naked and in bed! What would their students think? OH MY!  :rofl;
