I’m sure Michael Jordan wasn’t focused either when he was 4

I atttended my nephew’s first pee wee basketball game this weekend. It was hilarious. As coach Nate (his dad, my brother) said it best “His head just wasn’t in the game.” While the game was going Grant ran and jumped trying to touch the net, a few times he slid on his knees, he came over and talked to his mom on the sidelines, once he stopped and gave Ella a hug … all during the game. Guess it’s still hard to keep focused when you’ve just turned 4. It was reallly cute though. And he’s the little guy out there. These are 4-6-year-old and Grant just turned 4. it was really cute when Grant was set up to block a little girl that was about half a foot taller. I’m so mad I forgot my camera that day. I’ll make up for it this weekend.

What else did I do this weekend? Worked my monthly Saturday night shift, did heaps of laundry, storytime at library. The usual. By last night I was so tired from picking up and cooking and grocery shopping and laundry … I’m not sure I’m ever going to get around to cleaning my bathrooms again.

I have been doing some excersizes at home. They’re basically yoga poses without the deep breathing and meditation (who has time for that?). And it’s really cute because Ella does a lot them with me. I just mentioned downward dog yesterday and she actually did it. But she was in a playful mood yesterday so she mostly just messed with me. During some of the excersizes she would set something on my head to really test my balance, I guess. And a few times she climbed onto my back, wanting a horsey ride. It was really funny. She thought so too. My back doesn’t feel so good today though.

I also talked to my good friend Kara and heard all the fun details about her life as a new mom, and the exciting details of the birth! Read it here if you’re interested. She’s a tough girl. She was out raking when she went into labor. And she was going to even drive herself to the hospital! She wasn’t so sure it was really labor, luckily a friend helped her out since her hubby was out of town …

Anyway. Now it’s time for me to focus.
