Another Saturday

Today was a well deserved relaxing day. Woke up...went w/Botos to Wellington to get a spreader so he can get his field ready for baseball season, which practice starts this coming FRIDAY!!!! I don't know who is more ready him or me...

This morning was very cold!!! like freezing cold. Made it back from Wellington and came home. Decided we wanted to "Wall-E", so I go to my parents to borrow it. Got it, started it and fell asleep. Cora was in Botos' arms, Jantz & I were on the couch. Even though it was for an hour, I slept hard for that hour. Then I got up and had to go open the gym for a little dribblers team, went and got my sister, whom I haven't seen all week since I was sick. So went to Alltell b/c my phone won't stayed charged, to them the piece inside is bent...great!!!! Came home got the kiddos and went back to the gym to lock it up. On the way home we stayed at Taylor's and got few things we didn't need but went ahead and got them. Came home, ate & drank, then we had supper. Out of the blue I decided "lets go play putt-putt!" Look on Botos' face clearly explained he didn't want to but the good sport he is we did. A good twelve bucks in twelve minutes. Neat place, Coop's Den. Really impressed... now we are home.

I have been cooped up all week being sick and today I feel like I need to get OUT!!! As you can read I have attempted to get out, but didn't stay out for long....u ever feel this way? U want to go and do something and everyone wants to do nothing.

So.... we will see how Sunday goes. Have a good weekend....Mamabotos.

JINXIN'

WELL, Ever since my last blog I have been sick as a dog!!! It hit me in the middle of my game Tuesday night. When I got home, it wasn't 10 minutes and I was in bed w/chills, sore throat, shivering and could not get warm!!! So I went to the Doctor on Wed. & sure enough I have Strep w/ flue symptons.... great! My body hurt & ache all over. Sure enough I have not left this house since Wed. Cabin fever you might say? So today is Friday and I am missing the games tonight!!!! Luckily I can watch'em on the internet and text Coach Perkins or Coach K anything I might see. hahaha technology, you gotta love it!

The kids did make it to the baseball field this afternoon and came back showing me how to do the "Stinky Leg" dance...taught to them by Creede Breeding...a white boy. So cute!!! Now Cora is running in and out of the house w/her Superman Pink Cape and leggings on, carrying her pink water pail watering weeds in the yard. Jantz is running around outside riding his tricycle or bike to him.

Everyone have a great weekend and to Charla...I am sorry about not having you on the sideline but I just learned how to add others on there. Yours was the first one and I don't know what happened. You are on now sista...!!! Answer to your ipod list, check out last month or two months ago Fitness magazine, they had a list of the top songs to workout to!!! It was an answer to my prayers to get me going. More than Welcome to join Lori & I in the Mornings at 5:15!!!

Until next time...mamabotos

Monuesday?

Well, I can't decide if today is Monday or Tuesday? I know for a fact its not Monday but feels like it and I know that if today is Tuesday then tomorrow is Wednesday which means the week is half way over... oh well.

Had a good weekend, did absolutely nothing on Saturday...slept most of the day and then headed on down to Estelline to visit my grandparents. Great time...I heard stories about my granny & grandad, which was awesome cause they were both laughing and taking turns telling the story. How awesome! Even though my grandmother is bling but I bet you she can vividly remember that exact moment in her life like it was yesterday. Had me and my Uncle Kenny rolling.

Botos is doing great!!! He is so ready for baseball to start...I am too! I love watching him coach baseball...especially that they have to wear the uniform...mmmmmhhh better shut-up!!! hahaha As you may know or if you don't know, he has having those boys do some maintence work to the baseball field (painting the blencher, put windscreens, pull weeds, build fences, etc). The greenest grass in Childress County will be the Baseball Field!!! He takes great care of his fields; look good u play good...but what many people probably don't know is that Baseball coaches do have to take care of their field...its kind of sad that they have to do that. Think about...football coaches has the school maintence to mow the grass and water; yes they do paint the lines...basketball coaches has janitors to mop & sweep teh floor...even set out the chairs and score tables....I don't know where I was going with all of that other than Baseball Coaches just might have a "one-up" on us other coaches. Maintaining their own field, paint their own, drag & rake, AND endure the weather (rain, sleet, freezing arse cold, wind blowing 40 mph...) Man babe, I have a lot of respect for you having to endure that and having to endure me!! ; ) I wish you the best this season, I know you will do great things cause your love for the kids and the game is undeniable. Good Luck!!!

Sickness...OMG can you believe all the sicknesses going around! Just took my little man to the Dr. and he has Scarlet fever & strep throat!!! But the thing is he is running around fine, playing, eating. Weird! But just keep in mind of those that are sick. I know its tough when anyone in the family gets sick cause then everyone is like...'Great, now I am going to get it." Then we get mad at whoever was sick to come by and let us know they are sick...we are like.."don't come around here if your sick!" ahhahaha all the drama starts.

Everyone take care of yourself and those around you. Have a great Monuesday!!!

Until next time...Mambotos
