Not made for Bball

For anyone who hasn't yet figured it out, we are a soccer family. So why was Jimmy playing basketball with the youth and other leaders on wednesday night? Because it was an activity of course. Now this in and of itself is not a bad thing. The bad thing happened 30seconds before the end of the game when he jumped up, which I am sure was beautiful even though I wasn't there because anything he does is beautiful and no I am not being funny, but didn't quite come down the right way. By the time he came home, an hour later (hey "the Bishop needed him" or so he says) it looked like there was a softball inside his ankle. But wait theres more. As I freak and my first thought is "get in the car" his first thought is lets ice it and see how it looks in the morning. WHAT! Did he not see the bump? Actually, yes he did and he thought it was cool. What a guy! After icing it for awhile and dealing with my looks of impatience and his pain he gave in and off we went to the ER at 10pm. Good news, just a bad sprain. Bad news, stay off it for a couple of days then you can walk on it while wearing a brace. Ya right. Do they know my husband? He actually went to work the next day professing that he would certainly be home by noon, well he was only 2 hours off. I think the funniest thing to happen was actually the dr asking where we lived because he doesn't see many people in that hospital that aren't hispanic lol.

And Jimmy's biggest concern, cancelling soccer practice with his girls and getting to his older two daughters soccer game. He is so awesome!

Nothing to watch

Someone tell me how you can have nearly 1000 channels on satellite and still not find anything to watch? Don't get me wrong, I have had moments that I have dreamt of a day of nothing to do where I could sit in front of the t.v. all day and just veg out but it doesn't happen. And if there were to be some "free" time to sit in front of it in the daylight hours I am sure I would still find nothing to watch. I am not a soapy person and can't stand anyones "View"

All this being said, I found myself laying in bed or on the couch sick for the last week and again resigned myself to the fact that daytime t.v. doesn't exist unless you are watching cartoons. Since I am a pretty decent cartoon officianado (and Johnston has his favorites) we saw alot of reruns that were better than the stuff I have never seen before on the other channels. Of course, Jimmy says he can always find something to watch but it is usually soccer or the military channel.

So, even if my days are hectic and I wish for some free time to veg I'm pretty sure it won't be to watch t.v. (unless it is something I have dvr'd recently).
