Whew, I am old!

Well, it is official...I feel like crap. Clint and I decided to start on a softball team to help with a little girl named Sophie that has a brain tumor. She needs $70,000 for an experimental treatment, and no, I know the little girls family, so this isn't one of those "chain letter" things that you get where you forward or send a card and someone donates money. Anyway, in a mist of all the talk of starting a team, we decided to play on a church league...called Spur on Ministries. Now, they don't like to be considered a "cowboy" church, but why call yourself Spur on then? Anyway, that isn't the church we go to but that is another opinion Clint and I don't agree on. But until our church gets a team together we will play for them. Saturday and Sunday, Clint, Jagger and my self spent the greater part of the day in the pool because we found some water proof cards and decided to play cards in the pool. This quickly progressed into underwater cards. We would throw the cards at the bottom of the pool and you had 30 seconds to find your best five cards and played poker that way. Then we would throw all the cards to the bottom of the pool and you had to find all the cards (solitaire style) in order the fastest. That was hard and tiring. Now, I know why mom was so uncool and didn't let me go swimming on game days! We had our first softball practice last night at 6:30....and I was about dead. I layed in the outfield on my fat butt at just watched towards the end. My gosh, my arm and butt are so sore. But, I must say after 8+ years of not pitching....I still somewhat have my ability to sling one underhanded. This is the longest way to say, I am tired. Wore smooth out!



So, I have made some gifts for people that where having babies and such. I posted a few pics on my myspace and now, I am overwhelmed with people wanting to order stuff. This is great! But, I am a little worried what will happen when school gets into full swing again. I may be biting off more than I can chew. I love to decorate and create things and love love love giving hand made things for gifts. I know I don't charge for what time I have in them because I just love to do it so much. Maybe that is why they keep coming back. I may have to go up on my prices but right now I am just enjoying the time to myself making things.
