It's late and I'm still Up!

Really--I have been going to sleep at a reasonable hour lately--like 10! I feel so much better--but tonight--boys were out--Oldest just got home--needed to stay up to make sure he got safely home. I guess this is the start of a new phase in my life--

Today I had computer issues--had to call a friend who took my hard drive to run tests--spent the day making sure the laptop was all up to date--even hooked it up to a printer! VISTA stinks! Took me an hour! Had to find a substitute driver--I'm about at my tech limit--But I managed and I can function while the main computer gets updated and cleaned.

Busy week--Last swim meet of the season for oldest--It was the best one yet--His 200 freestyle relay team took first! What a race--Wish their coach could've seen it. He is scheduled to have a heart valve replaced once his lungs clear--Oldest actually wished his coach was around, and he could say he had easy practices when the lane 5&6 were being worked to death--they all had that treatment. His team experience makes me want to get re-certified and be around the pool again. His team needs to learn how to strech and use their whole body in their strokes and learn how to create a rthym in their swimming. Oldest actually listened to my advice!

It's now the great countdown to baseball season--pray he makes it on to the school team!

Went on a hike today in the Connetquot preserve--beautiful--icy--trail to a now closed trout hatchery--It was cold too! 2 hours later I was frozen--Didn't realize that when we set out for the park that we would be outside so long! Oldest looking for Eagle Project ideas that are out of the ordinary and conservation minded.

Youngest had fun at a Game Night at Church. He too only needed to be picked up at 11! I definitely need to get to sleep.

Oldest trying to stay awake for the Men's Final of the Austrailian Open at 3:30 AM! Crazy!

Time to close and join DH in the dream department--He's got to work all day tomorrow--and we are going to pass the hours until the Super Bowl! Already had the special snack requests--Good day to cook and prepare for the coming week.
