The NIGH****CHMAN -Thursday 10/15
Baseball winding down, and I already renewed my tickets for next year. Off season is a drag. Well, at least I have the vacation to Branson to look forward to.
Just so you know, you need to TAKE YOUR VITAMINS & SUPPLEMENTS and make sure you get your daily allotment of PROTEIN.
If you are new to the board, this link explains what the NIGHT WATCHMAN is (if you are interested). Otherwise, just read on, you will probably figure it out anyway.

Just a quick fly by. I swear, I don't even know what day it is. Still worry about the girls as it has really worked on them. ALL those kids are SO short tempered right now. At my house, the two older girls are definitely more "bitey" at each other. They got into it a bit ago about a stupid blog entry. I finally had to step in and tell each one of them to ZIP IT! There hasn't been a day this week I haven't lost it at least once with tears rolling down my face. Yesterday I had to drive past the tennis courts and just remember sitting on the bleachers with him a short week ago. We were talking about what the kids were going to be doing during "off season" (that started this week thankfully) and how he was going to work them out for conditioning. The interim coach started with them today. He was also a very good friend of Coach Kaiser so he's effected by this as well.
I realized today that I hadn't touched my vitamins since Monday. When I talked to a couple other tennis moms today, we all agreed we seem to be walking around in a blur. The coach's family asked if us tennis parents could take care of the food reception afterwards. They are expecting a few hundred people so trying to secure enough food for that many is MONUMENTAL, especially in a couple days! UGH. We will do it though and we'll do it right. We will not let his family down. Of course in addition to all that, Sarah has a make-up soccer match tomorrow that we are assigned snacks/drinks for at 6:00, then at 8:45 we have church directory photos. On Saturday she has another soccer game in the morning, then she a "play day" session at the tennis club from 1-3, then coach's memorial service at 3 pm so I'm thinking she may have to skip out of the tennis, or, possibly go just for an hour. The girls will be with the other tennis kids so I won't have to mess with them. All the kids will be arriving as a group, sitting as a group, then all of them will serve at the reception. I'm bringing plenty of tissue....
I think I'm going to get the soccer game snack stuff done tonight...one less thing I have to worry about tomorrow!
I'm still playing contact tag with the one company about the salary. And I heard from my new boss today. They've moved my start date up to 10/26. So, I guess it's a good thing we found a house and our lease applications have already been approved. I posted a link to it on Facebook if you want to check it out later.
I have so much to do in San Antonio and a week less to do it in so we're leaving tomorrow morning and heading back. I need to get a bunch of packing done this weekend.
We still don't know for sure when we'll be moving. I know if I stick with the job I've accepted I'll be in Houston the weeks of 11/2 and 11/16. I'm hoping we'll be able to move the weekend of 11/6-8. Michael needs to coordinate getting the phone and internet set up so he can figure out when he can start working from up here.
I'm exhausted and it's going to be a long few days. Prayers for all who need them.
253 / 140 (below goal)
If I were lying, wouldn't my pants be on fire?!?
Hope I will be seeing you sometimes now that you are going to be up here. So where is the house? I don't have access to Facebook at work.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!
WAY TO GO JENNIFER !!
