Laying here in bed watching the olympics. The mens gymnastics is on, and they are quite impressive. Looks like they should medal, unless they fall flat on their face on the horse. They had the lead, but China took it back after their vaults, which they are favored in. Michael Phelps is an animal in the pool. Really fun to watch.
Braelyn hasn’t been feeling well, but we attribute that to the little white spec on her lower left gums. Yep, Brae, who turned 7 months just days ago, is getting her first tooth. Cute little girl is slobbering more than Hoover drools. That, in and of itself, is an impressive feat!
Spencer starts back to school this Friday. Freshmen only report on Friday, everyone else on Monday. Though he doesn’t admit it, I think he’s pretty excited to start this new chapter. He attended a soqueer camp today… yep, he’s playing soqueer this year. Opps, I keep spelling that wrong. He plays soccer this year. He’s excited, and though I am a pure baseball guy (which means, naturally, that I hate soccer) I am happy he’s doing it. He’s good at it (so he tells me!), and it will give me a high school “sport” to watch! It’s all good… I enjoyed watching soccer when I was in high school.
Me, well, I am just working. I may go to the lake this weekend, but not really sure. Pretty much just a week of work, coming home, playing the guitar a bit, and watching the olympics. I did get a letter from the OP police department saying they found my complaint against “Officer” Sheperd “unfounded.” Go figure. They hope my future experiences with the OP police department are more positive, however. Yeah, I’m sure they will be. Hope they call me and ask me for a donation of some sort. I’ll donate… really, I will. I wonder, does sarcasm come through in a blog post? I will scan the letter and post it sometime, unless it blows away or gets rained on. It’s laying on my table on the patio.
Olympics update: we just screwed up on the horse. Two guys to save the silver. C’mon, USA.
Rebecca and Hoover are sleeping. Nothing really new. Hopefully Hoover will get busy with a video soon. I know we have some great footage of him going after the sprinklers on Sunday. He’s modest and doesn’t like producing videos of himself, but I will see if I can talk him into it.
Until next time, keep working hard to keep Obama out of the White House. My pocketbook demands that.
