Updating What's Going On
First of all it took me forever to start this post because I had to set up an account with the new blogger on google. At first I kept trying to bypass it and just get to my dash board so I could just freakin blog but no matter what I did it wouldn't let me so I had to follow the rules and update....
Anyway...last night my daughter had her first scrimage. I was kind of excited about it but I didn't really know how excited I was until they actually started playing. Her team kind of sux but I'm assuming they will get better. This is only the third week they have been practicing
Before we got there she called her dad to ask if he was coming and of course he had the days mixed up. He though it was next Saturday. But because he is the wonderful father he is he was right there in no time flat. His wife and step son was with him. The step son is a real character. He always calls me his girlfriend. He is just to much and he is getting tall and very handsome. His wife and I were running our mouths so much we missed half the game. I swear I love that woman. We did stop gossiping long enough to enjoy the last part of the game. At first my daughter's team was being blown out then they started turning it around and they made a couple of good shots. That's when I started getting into it. If you read the last post I mentioned a girl that was really big. Well It just so happens she was on the other team they had to play. She was pretty good. She played the whole game and of course they couldn't really do anything with her. She was rough housing my daughter's whole team. My daughter just needs someone to do some one-on-one with her and she might play pretty good. So her dad is going to make extra time to show her a few things. I don't really know how much that's going to help her because he swears he can play. When I was with him 13 years ago I wasn't all that impressed with his basketball skills. Everytime he went to the court he would come home with a new injury. I'm talking about severe injuries. One time he went to the hospital and had a splint put on his right thumb. Another time he took a hit to his testicles that also landed him in the hospital and almost had him sterile. He was soft for almost 2 weeks (you know what I mean). Maybe he should not have been out there in the first place being as though he is only 5'6".
Anyhoo....It was a descent scrimage. Of course my daughter had an attitude afterwards and was ready to fight two of the girls. At first I was getting her all rowdy but then I calmed her down and told her that's not going to happen. I told her that I know there will be smart comments and attitudes flying because they are girls but that's not good sportsmanship to let that stuff get to her. She was calmer and said she would do better with her quick temper.
Afterwards I called Diamonds and we went to her house. It was my first time at her new place so of course I got lost. I always love going to her house because she is always trying to be so hospitable. Honestly it irks me because she over does it. She is always apologizing when things aren't perfect at her place. We are like family so I could care less about what's going on in her house because it's never as bad as she tries to make it seem. She is better than me because I hardly ever apologize for what my place is looking like at the time. Although if she came over right now I would have to keep her out of the kitchen. The dog decided I wasn't paying her enough attention so she decided to knock the trash over and make a mess all over the freakin' floor. My daughter picked up the trash but the floor definitely needs to be mopped. I will be doing that ASAP.
I was really happy to see her doing well. Just seeing her settled with her children. Not to mention the new car. Go 'head girl. Do the dam thing! hahaha. It's funny because there is always someone at work asking me about her and how she is doing and why doesn't she hardly work? Then when I tell them she is fine they always say something like "How does she live and pay bills when we never see her here working?" But apparantly whatever she is doing is working for her.
Meanwhile back at the ranch I have worked a million hours just this week alone. I always complain but the truth is I love this place. I am starting to get a little tired of being here. I'm actually getting tired of the drive. It's only about 15 miles but after a while 15 miles can become a pain in the ass if it's everyday. So after tonight I'm going to maybe take off about 5 or 6 days. Until I get bored out of my mind and I just have to come back in here.
Oh, one more thing before I go. I finally met "D's" girlfriend. He was at the scrimage. He was there to see his little cousin play. If you don't know who "D" is then refer back to the post "My Men" Him and Diamonds are the most important people to me at our job. I was going to meet her anyway some time next week but it just so happens that we were at the same place at the same time. They were so cute together. But we are still going out to dinner because we didn't get a chance to talk.
