I wish I had more time to devote to blogging but I just don't right now - not like I'd like to, anyway. I am maintaining 2 websites for the high school and have a client for which I am maintaining a website. I am also in the process of redesigning that website. Then add to that a week (at least!) of being sick with a nasty, wicked virus - I didn't do much of anything, not even sleep. Don't you just hate it when both nostrils are completely plugged? I mean, sleeping and trying to breathe out of your mouth JUST DON'T MIX! I now know how stringy my hair looks after three days of not being washed - ug!
And, AREN'T FRIENDS JUST WONDERFUL?
I had two friends bring me soup - one was homemade cream of mushroom, my favorite! - flowers, fresh fruit and homemade lemonade. I was so touched.We are also in the middle of high school soccer season, which involves two games a week, a team dinner every other week, team lunches at school (which we Moms take care of), then all the photos and web page updates - it takes a lot of time, but I love it. I will really miss soccer next year when Keldon is in college. That has been the same with each child as they have left home - with Nicole, I missed her Speech and Debate events and music performances; with Amanda, I missed her school play performances and her choir events; with Kim, I missed her softball and volleyball games; with Ethan, I missed his swimming and water polo events; and with Keldon, it will be the soccer I miss.
Keldon received his first college acceptance letter! He has been accepted to University of Arizona with a $4,000 per year scholarship. Who knows if this is where he will go to college, but it is nice to have received at least one acceptance letter. More are to come. He also received an email from UC Riverside saying he was automatically accepted - guess not too many apply to their university, so they come looking for you!
3 friend/s had this to say:
I didn't know you loved cream of mushroom soup too! I always look for it at restaurants. I had it once at Intel cafe in Oregon and then they never had it again. Do you have a favorite recipe? I'm always looking for the best one. Love you!
I love cream of mushroom soup too! I think I got that from you Mom :) I remember on rainy days coming home and opening a can of soup and eating the whole thing all by myself. I am glad to hear you are feeling better!! That is very exciting about U of A and UC Riverside. He applied to BYU right? When does Ethan move back in?
I'm glad you are feeling a bit better now. That was really nice of your friends to bring you such delicious food. That's sweet that you enjoyed each of our hobbies and missed them when we graduated. I think you miss mine the most though. Just kidding siblings! You didn't tell me that Keldon was offered a scholarship at UofA! That is great! I like the new background and songs. By the way your nostrils have gotten big since I saw you last. It must have been that darn cold! :) Love you!
