Game I

Well, I promised you that I would keep you up to date on the soccer situation both the boys and my step-daughter’s team. Today was my step-daughter’s first game. It ended in a 2 to 2 tie, so I am quite pleased with the outcome.
The kick in the teeth, though, is that I wanted to be their head coach, but never got a phone call. So, I volunteered to be asst. coach and it is a bit difficult for me because I would have liked to run the show. All well, it was nice, though. The kids got the idea and did fairly well for their first game. I figured they would be kicking each other in the shins and grouping up. They almost stayed in their positions.
As for the boys team, we are having tryouts this up coming week. This year we are going to make some cuts because last year it wasn’t fair for me to have over 20 some odd kids and have to seat several of them for most of the game. I tried to play them all, but there were games that I couldn’t. Our first game is not going to be until November, so hopefully we will have everything in order by then. They are working their buts off, though during conditioning, so I am happy about that.
As for me, I am a bit worn out already and we haven’t even played a game as of yet. I guess it is because there are a lot of other things going on that I am frustrated with or don’t want to explain right now and here. There are some things going on at my school that I am not happy with, some things with my eldest daughter, etc. It is just taking its toll on me. Oh, well.
I will keep you up to date on life. Take care. Until Next Time.
