I am lost for a change

I am sitting here trying to figure out this blog thing. Everybody makes it look so easy and of course it probably is but computers still intimadate me. I use them daily at work but feel stupid when i use them. I need to learn more about them and hopefully that will happen in November.
What else can i say? I am a mother of some very unique individuals. School has just started and so my life as i know it has ended and i have become the taxi, sports fan, and form signer. My son is playing football for the first time this year. I do not care for the sport normally and do not like watching him get smashed and bashed but he is not sitting on the couch eating and growing larger he is out there with his buds and bonding. Still dont like the sport. He broke his wrist in the second week of practice but still wants to play. He had his first game today. They lost terribly. But as a good parent i asked did you play your best and if so you have nothing to be ashamed of no matter what the coaches might say. My daughter on the other hand swims. she had a great first year burned up the pool in 8th grade on varsity swim team. Things this year arent going as well and she is disheartened. What do i say to her? to my son its suck it up cupcake but we always seem to handle our daughters a little different. Gender bias i can hear one of my friends saying right now. I just want her to live this part of her life different from what i experienced so some times i over do or step over the boundries. Im lost with out any direction map or manual. But it always seems to work out inspite of me.
