Last night it started to rain shortly after we went to bed. The boys were in town at a movie at Solaris which is a theater that serves you food and drinks during the movie. Talk about over the top. They arrived home around 10:30 and we were almost asleep.
Today we have soccer at 9 am and it’s a lot cooler up here. You knew this was coming and here it is. I made it to Denver by 7:30 in the morning and left around 11 to head up the hill. Around Georgetown the traffic backed up and was moving at 2 or 3 miles an hour. I quickly merged to the right lane and backed down an on ramp and headed up Highway 6 (the old highway before the interstate) and missed most of it. I still had to sit in traffic for about 20 minutes but it was a lot better than 2 hours!
Ty’s friend Scott from Denver is up here for the weekend as his sister is playing in a soccer tournament so Scotty will be spending the night with us tonight. Tomorrow am at 9 Jag and I and his friend and friends dad are heading down for the football game. We’re supposed to hook up with Lexi and Tali who are two girls in Jag’s class whose parents go to every game too. You might remember we had dinner a week or so ago and Lexi’s parents were there. He’s the one who knew Brett Farve. Tali was the girl who had the bah mitzvah Jag went to. Both girls are ski racers up here which leads me to the next subject. The Junior Prep Team for the Olympic Nordic Team is willing to take on Jag as he wants to join the nordic or cross country skiing program. His main goal is to get into biathlon where you cross country ski race and then stop and shoot at targets. Typically the Scandinavian countries excel in this sport as they all grow up cross country skiing. Dry land training is going on right now meaning the kids are training in the gym and on skis with roller skates or wheels on the bottom. Of course the fee is like $2000 so I have that going for me, uggh. Oh well, it’s only money, right. We’ll figure it out somehow but I told him if we do this, he needs to be 100% committed, no skipping a single practice for any party or anything. He says he’s all in. I should start a Go Fund Me Page, ha ha.
We have an open house today from 2 until 4pm if any of you in Denver see activity at our house. We’re not lowering the price anymore as it’s at a good deal right now. We just need the right person. Say a prayer it sells. Guess I’ll run now as we leave in an hour. Hope all’s well and as usual, God Bless.
