Joe's Swim Meet

Took Joe to his swim meet yesterday. At least this one was here in Ashtabula. He was really looking forward to seeing what his time would be on his 200 Free and he was doing really good and then the coach started yelling "Go, go, go" which means he is on his last lap and to really push it. When he got to the end he jumped out only to find out that he had another lap to go and because he got out of the water he was disqualified. He cried! He was so upset. He said he lost track too and doesn't blame the coach too much. I felt so bad and so did everyone there! I think he'll be doing the 200 at the next one of the 7th. This next meet, if you place in the top 25 then you go on to the next one and that will be the last one of the year. Then they have a couple months off and they start back up in the summer but will only have one meet this is just to stay in shape. Some of those practices are from 6-7am!! YIKES! Like I want to get up that early during summer vacation! SIGH!!

Today we have friends coming over for lunch. I'm making the birthday dinner. That is what she wanted really bad anyway she said, LOL! I've known Chris since 2nd grade. Her husband and mine like to hunt together. There is no football games today, thank God, so the TV won't be blaring. I HATE having the TV on when we have people over but Chuck likes it that way. His Dad always did that so it's what he knows I guess. I think it's just plain rude! She has 3 girls so my house will be full of noise today, I'm sure!

I'm not going to church today because I didn't get the lasagna made yesterday. Came home late from the meet and I made pizza and we watched TV till bed. So, I have to make the lasagna this morning and through the cake together.

BTW, Candy, your kitchen looks FABULOUS!!!! Man, I wish I had your kitchen!! I remember what it did look like and this one is just GORGEOUS!!!!! So worth every penny!!
