ouch

Sean didn't do as well this time at his meet on Thursday. He had two matches against two guy that were about 20 pounds heavier and at least a foot taller and eighth graders to boot. To say the least he was pinned both times in less than 10 seconds. Have to give him credit because the first match the guy kneed him in the forehead on the way down to the pin and he was seeing stars but still went on to try again in the final match of the day. I am hoping he doesnt want to wrestle because im not so sure I like it as a sport to be a spectator at. You go and sit around for like three hours to watch your son wrestle for 20 seconds. Even if they are good and go the whole round its only 3 minutes tops. He has decided to try basketball in between wrestling and swimming so that will make a total of 5 sports the boy is trying this year. What doesnt kill him will make him stronger haha.

Sara has her first indoor track meet on saturday and I won't get to go to it. To far to travel and just dont have the money to spend on the gas to go to all these meets and games and such. I hate to have to pick and choose but thats how the cookie crumbles. She will be just running this time not quite ready for pole vaulting yet. I will difinatly be there when she vaults for the first time. I wonder if it will freak me out as much as when she did diving in modifid swimming the first year. I hope not.

Ian's first swimming meet is Tuesday and then followed by thier second one on Wednesday. It will be a brutal week for him. He seems to be more into the swimming this year then he was last year. I hope its more enjoyable for him and he meets his personal goals this year.

I tried to swim my cares away this morning. I wanted to see if i could swim for 30 minutes without stopping and see how far i could go. I ended up going 1250 in 32 minutes. At 30 minutes i only had 2 more lengths of the pool to make it an even 50 so i went 32 minutes. I love swimming i wish i could stay in the water forever. It takes my mind off crap and my body feels less painful while floating. But then comes the time to climb out of the pool to face the day and as i climb up the ladder the weight reasserts itself and onward i plod. That weight lately has become almost unbearable I just wanna dive in and stay forever. ttfn
