Today rocks. It is Monday. Another survival of the fit-est weekend! Laundry beckons me...draperies need to cleaned.. floors need to be washed...Where oh where is Cinderella when you need her!!!?
Our weekends have been packed with the furnishing's of winterguard competition--last weekend the team performed in Grand Prairie where they came out with 7th place out of 18 teams in the SA division which they got promoted to 1 month ago. Last year I hear they were in SAA and got 17th place. So great job for them and what an accomplishment. Whew--on to other things like duets and solos for the class project. Then off to the middle schools to get some new girls excited and yearning for guard in 2009-10. This past weekend we spent with Gretchen and her dance team competing against many , many teams --lost track--. They came out with 3 top golds and 1 platinum (which is highest) award. We were starting to think the music was sounding the same since we couldn't hear well any longer. She had 2 softball games that she had to miss but we hear the team won--yea for them. Tonight is against last years number one team---we will see how that goes. It is windy again here. Hopefully it will be in our favor. Stephanie has been working more slowly as the new Marco's business is getting popular--yummo. Her weekend consisted of taking the ACT test and working and hanging with some friends before work needed her.She is working hard on her solo pieces for UIL that will consist of the snare and marimbas. Tuesday her concert section goes to UIL to get the number one spot. Good Luck!!! As for the adults--guess? We are running here there and everywhere but it is slowing down some.
In the past couple of weekends we have been slowly doing little projects. Soon our next one could be putting marble in the floor area of fireplace---got a good deal and a friend of Mike's thinks we can do it well. This past Saturday we went to a light store that was phasing out and we found all kinds of new goodies for our home. We have many cheap and ugly lights in this house---so after purchasing 10 fixtures we spent $290.00. We couldn't even have paid that for the big, huge fixture for the foyer we were looking at in Lowe's. So what a deal!! So we go on and on---looking for deals to fit our pocket. I think we were successful.

You make me tired just reading all that you are up to. What will you do when the girls are all gone and you are an empty nester????
Sounds like Texas life is agreeing with you.
