A few of us tried out IMing last week. It was interesting. I had fun picking an icon to go with every line I typed. The three of us felt we were back in school, isn't there something else we should be doing at work? I don't see much use for it in my personal life. It could be good tool for patrons with reference questions.

First Game

Grape had his first game Wednesday night. He is in Little League and is in the minor division. His team is the Green Mets. All minor and major divisions in LL receive a major league baseball team name with an assigned color. Our team decided to get the boys' names printed on the back of their jerseys. They looked pretty professional out there! Grape was the starting pitcher Wednesday and had a small flock of butterflies in his stomach. He did a great job! I had to work that night so I missed the last half of the game. They ended up winning and now can get past the first game jitters. Cheese was out there cheering on his brother from the bleachers! But he is very excited for his games to begin. Friday is the next game for Grape!

Baseball season has started. Both boys are in Little League this year and the practice/game schedule makes my head swim! We have practice 2 to 3 times a week for Grape and once a week for Cheese. Grape's schedule is ever changing, new field almost every practice! Cheese always has practice on the same field. Simplicity! The first month is a difficult ajustment. (When will this ever end!) But by the time the end is near I'm sad to see the season end. Yes, we no longer have to race here or there and eat food in 13 seconds or less but no more nail biting plays, cheers of victory, lessons of defeat or good ole dirty uniforms! Batter up!!!

(Do you like the boys' code names? Last fall they gave a code name to each member of the family. Thought I'd use them here for fun!)

First Blog!

I'm excited to get started! I thought it was very easy to set up. The hard part for me was picking a blog name! It was fun reading the other blogs and trying to guess who created them.
Whoohoo! Step 2 completed!
