Football, High School and My Mom..

Not necessarily in that order...

My mom is doing a lot better. She's been home for two weeks and is getting stronger. She still gets pretty short of breath when she walks and talks, but the doctor said that will get better. She needs to do her breathing exercises and walk more. I think we're going to the pancake feed tomorrow morning. At least I want to go. I'll be going over there after the game tonight. I need to set up her pills for the week and then I'll stay over.

Jordy is starting tonight. He hasn't started since the two suspended players were back. I think he's excited. I know I am. I'm such a proud aunt and I'll tell anyone who will listen how great he is.

My class reunion is this weekend. The big 2-0. I hated high school. Some parts were okay, but the overall experience was not that great. I've been in contact with a few of my classmates over the past weeks. I'll see them over the weekend. Tonight after the football game and after I check on my mom, I'll go to the dance. It's an all-class gig and my in-laws will be there which means I can hang out with my father-in-law. He's great and although he will never replace my dad, it's nice to have him there when I need him. He reminds me of my dad - especially when we have a few beers together.

I'll have an update after the weekend. I don't think it will be as exciting as Missy's, but I'm sure I have something to talk about.

I'm taking Jordy and Jakey out for lunch tomorrow. Jakey's birthday was Thursday. He turned 13. I'm sure when they are 25 and 23 I will still be calling them Jordy and Jakey! I'm sure they won't mind.

Wheat has been over to play the Wii a few times. I haven't been able to play it as much as I would like because I've been so busy with work. Hopefully in a few weeks it will slow down.

Well...I better get going...until next time...
