It hasn’t felt like much of a summer yet. I have taken on the role of “registrar” at our competitive soccer club and for the past month that has eaten up ALOT of my time. More-so then I thought it would. (And yes, it’s all volunteer!)

Tryouts were the week after Memorial Day and for the 2 weeks before and ever since it’s been nonstop soccer. I’m not complaining…..at least not as much as my husband is. He’s driving me nuts! BUT, now he’s getting a taste of what it would be like if I had a full time job.Not sure what he’s expecting or missing anyway – I am in no way the kind of person who waits on anyone….you have clothes that need to be washed? Wash them yourself. You’re hungry? Make yourself something to eat. So I’m not sure why he’s bitching and moaning. Only thing I can think of is because I’m a volunteer. I look at though like I am doing something good for over 200+ families by helping run the club. And at the end of the day, for me, it’s all about the kids!

So yes, we haven’t had much of a summer the 1st month, but within the next week or so it should die down some for me and we can start having fun then. The kids can’t say they’re entirely bored either. So far both Kieran and Tristan have had their weeks at Nana’s alone. Caelie had a soccer camp and has had multiple sleepovers. Tristan had his soccer camp and has been out with friends and even Kieran has had friends here or gone to a friends. So it’s not like they’re sitting in the house all day bored out of their minds. I just miss doing the normal summer things with them – Busch Gardens, the beach, the zoo, bowling and the movies. So, once the next week (of actual registration) is over I am hoping to be able to enjoy the summer with my kids!!!!
