A Better Month?????

Trying hard to get back to my Happy Go Lucky Self. August was a really tough month for me, with my Grandma passing away, my great friend Katrina being so sick, and fighting with a friend who really means so much to me. I have vowed that September is going to be a great month. So far so good. Katrina is much better now, she had me really worried for a while...but all is good!! My friend and I are trying to work on our friendship once again...just many old issues to work out..but I have faith that all will work out in time. So lets talk about September....Katrina had Becky here from TDIC(well, she used to work at TDIC), for Labor Day Weekend...so I was able to meet her for the first time, and she is a wonderful person!! Katrina had a BBQ on Saturday, but I was unable to attend as I had to work at the Storm that night, so I stopped by, said Hi, met Becky and was off to work. Kyle had a great night at the Storm game..I will do a seperate blog about that. I came back to Katrina's after work, and they were all still swimming...I didn't have a bathing suit, so I just sat on the edge and put my feet in. This was about 10:30 when I got there, then her neighbor Scott came over, then her friend Trina came over, guess this was the late night gathering. I was talking to Scott about the Storm team, and he said he should take his son to a game...well, there were only 2 more regular season games, so I told him I would get him tickets for Sundays game, and Katrina asked if I could get 6 for her also...of course...no problem. We sat around till about 12:30 and just talked then I headed home. Went to work a little early so I could get the tickets put a will call for everyone. I was working the info booth that day, so I decided to put up special welcomes on the video board. They do this for birthdays, anniversarys and welcomes. They put up the person (s) name, and announce it mid 5th inning. I welcomed Scott and Sean...and Becky, Beth and Tyler. Well, Scott and Sean got there right when the game started, but unfortunetly, Katrina and Becky were late, as they had gone to Oceanside for the day, and just didn't make it back in time. When the welcomes came up, I was watching Scott and Sean for their reaction...it was too cool. They both looked at each other, smiled and high fived!! They had no idea I had done this. Sean came up later and thanked me!! Katrina, Becky and the kids got there right after the 5th inning..they just missed it....I tried to get them(Storm), to do it again but they wouldn't!! :( Oh well, it was the thought!! Was going to go to Katrina's after the game, but I wasn't feeling too good, so I just went home and went to bed!! Kyle had football practice at 7:00am on Monday and Rick had to work, so I pretty much did nothing on Monday for the Holiday....Oh well!!

The Storm made it to the playoffs, so I had to work Thursday....I was kinda bummed as that was Kyle's first JV game...but come to find out, he didn't even play...so no big deal!! I was really bored at work...as they had me on phones...so I decided to text our marketing guy from work..his name is also Scott...he had me laughing so hard!! He made the night fly by, and made it really enjoyable!! I then got Katrina involved in the texts, so I had to pass messages on back and forth from them too!! It was really fun!! The ticket office people kept looking at me, cuz I kept laughing....as I'm not supposed to be texting....so they just thought I was nuts....heck...maybe I am!!!

Tonight is our first Varsity game....and I am working the merchandise table...this is my job for all the home games. I really enjoy doing this, and I can still see the game.

So this is my September so far...and it's only going to get better....right??? You betcha!! Take care everyone...and I want to thank all my friends and family for all their love and support and putting up with me this past few months. Love ya!!
