Recruiting Shenanigans

So aside from being an oh-so-fabulous 2nd grade teacher, I am a high school girls basketball coach

Not to toot my own horn, but they are pretty good and tall (yes I have 2 6'5" players) :)

Anywho, part of my job (which I may have a new one, update soon) is to recruit new girls and encourage them to join the program.  So today I went to my old high school to recruit and ohmigosh:
1. they didnt turn the heat on, and it felt like 40 below
2. I saw a girl fall and be taken off in an ambulance... here are the details: think about how your elbow bends one way, well this darling girl fell and it bent the opposit direction, yes bone and everything exposed... can I say OUCH and YOWZERRRSSS! Many people had to leave the gym to salvage losing their breakfast.

Afterwards I had a major cardio session and went to my friend (who's children I taught and has a family the population size of Oklahoma) for a Soup/Chili party... ohmiword.. Chicken tortilla soup was TO DIE FOR GOOD! Will post recipe as soon as I get my little hands on it.

Hope everyone had a great weeekend!

My First Post Ever!

Soooo I have been an avid follower of so many different blogs and as daunting as it seems, I am giving it my good ol' best try.  Today's weather was one of those, its better to have just stayed in bed then rough it in the elements kinda days.  Oh and by the way, it snowed ALL DAY, yes, I said it, its snowed BEFORE Halloween, which kinda bothers me.  It's just not natural. Anywho, I am a 2nd grade teacher ( I promise to describe more about me in future posts) and yesterday was Field Day (kinda lame) and our Halloween Parade, and I do have to say the quad group I was part of was by farrrr the best in costume.
Yes, we are ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS, SHOOT!!! (I am the scissors by the way)
