Weekend Update: a little here, a little there
It's time to start baseball. Son is playing t-ball again this year. It's his last season and then next year he will move up to C ball. Friday was his first practice and it was 38 degrees. Needless to say, we didn't really practice. We just forked over fundraiser money and agreed to meet the following week.
Looks like Little G might be the oldest on the team. Seems like there may be a lot of newbies. The sad part about that is we are practicing in a field. Not a baseball field. Just a field. It's kind of hard to teach little kids how to run to to first base and stay in the baseline when there is no first base or baseline.
I'm excited that we are on the Pittsburgh Pirates this year but am confused as to why the coach thinks that they wear yellow shirts. I'm that's my neck of the words and I'm certain that they don't wear yellow.
Of course, we already own gray pants and white pants and his coach wants him to wear black pants. I suppose I could have guessed that one.
Here's hoping the weather warms up a little this week so baseball becomes a little less painful.
Saturday and Sunday were low key days which is great because next week they both look crazy busy. I finished the first major edit on my book. Still not sure what, if anything, I'm going to do with it. I've taken to reading a lot of teen fiction lately and a lot of times I find myself wondering how did this person get their book published. I mean, let's be honest, unless you have an in, it's hard to get even a look.
Knowing that is a bit depressing.
Here's hoping you had a fantastic weekend.

What? Baseball is meant to be played in the snow - like playoffs in the rockies. {*grin*}
It sure doesn't feel like baseball season yet!
