Hangover City.....

Well last night I had a friend from work come in town and go out for some drinks with us. We had a good time. I feel mainly tired today and I was so hungry this morning I thought I would die. I didn't eat anything yesterday but 4 fritos and a nutri grain bar so that wasn't enough to absorb much alcohol so I got wasted!!!!!! Well not much to say cause I feel like shit so love all around.
Thought for the day:
Sometimes in life you just got to agree to disagree!

The wind is back......

Fucking wind is back! This has been the most depressing winter! You know I have the greatest friends! Thank you all for all of your support during this time. What bothers me most about this coach is he didn't even apologize about how Randi felt. He didn't give two shits about how a child felt! He might not take responsibility but at least he could of offered an apology for how she felt! Sheila my friend from High School told me how a coach made her feel in High School and you know what his words still affects her! The job of teacher/coach is so important especially at a Junior High level, this is the age where you can affect their self esteem and damage it to where it can affect them clear into adult hood. Well he will hear me today but will he really HEAR me is the question. The only good thing about this is the Principal is a woman. Women sometimes have more heart when it comes to how a child feels. I hope she becomes one of my advocates. Well I will let you all know how it goes today. Love all around......

Song in my head...... This guy makes me LOVE country music....

Trace Adkins
Honky Tonk Badonkadonk

Turn it up some
All right boys, this is her favorite song, you know that, right
So, if we play it good and loud, she might get up and dance again
Ooh, she put her beer down, here she comes, here she comes
Left, left, left, right, left, whoo

Husslers shootin' eight-ball
Throwin' darts at the wall
Feelin' damn near ten feet tall
Here she comes, Lord help us all
Ol' T.W.'s girlfriend done slapped him out his chair
Poor ol' boy, it ain't his fault, it's so hard not to stare

At that honky tonk badonkadonk
Keepin' perfect rhythm: make you wanna swing along
Got it goin' on like Donkey Kong
And ooh ee, shut my mouth, slap your grandma
There outta be a law; get the Sheriff on the phone
Lord have mercy, how's she even get them britches on
That honky tonk badonkadonk(Aw sorry)

Now, honey, you can't blame her
For what her Mama gave her
It ain't right to hate her
For workin' that money-maker
Band shuts down at two but we're hangin' out till three
We hate to see her go but love to watch her leave

With that honky tonk badonkadonk
Now, keepin' perfect rhythm, make you wanna swing along
Got it goin' on like Donkey Kong
And ooh ee, shut my mouth, slap your grandma
There outta be a law; get the Sheriff on the phone
Lord have mercy, how's she even get them britches on
With that honky tonk badonkadonk.
(Oh, that's what I'm talkin' bout right there, honey)

Tuesday.......

Hey all. The weather has been nice for two days that means no wind, but as I type I am sure the wind will start to blow!!!!! Well tomorrow I have a meeting with the Principal of Randi's school and the Athletic Director. I would like to say I am confident about this meeting but I am not. I would like for them to see my point of view but in the actuality of it all nothing will change. Coaches have always been unfair and are only concerned about winning. What a shame that all the other parents won't back me up the ones that set up the meeting backed out so I stand alone. Is my voice or my views enough to make a change? One would hope. I feel the need to do this so maybe I am the chosen one to make a change? We will see. I hope you all read my intitial letter I posted on the blog and the Coaches lame response. My husband asked me not to respond but those of you that know me knew I wouldn't not respond. I think I am a person that likes to have the last word. I was born a fighter and I don't think that will change anytime soon. What was my response? Here it is:
Obviously you feel you take no responsibility for how Randi feels nor offer any apologies. You made your decisions who would play and who wouldn’t and you stand by that. You had a perfect opportunity to mold a child into a better basketball player and give her the skills you so readily told her she didn’t have. Instead you choose to sit Randi out during practices from learning your drills & plays and basically ignored her, and chose then not to play her because of her lack of skills. I always thought a Coach was also a teacher. I wrote this letter in hopes you would HEAR me but I am afraid what I had to say to you fell on deaf ears. I am only one voice but there are other parents and children that feel the same as the words I expressed to you and you would be surprised to know most of the girls on your team also felt you were wrong in the treatment of Randi and others. Even though I clearly didn’t get the response from you that I was hoping thank you for taking the time to respond. Randi has learned one valuable lesson out of all of this and that is when to walk away.
Well everyone wish me luck I will need it.
Thought for the day:
Treat others as you would wish to be treated.
