It is Sunday night...again. It was another busy weekend around here. I love all the activity but sometimes I would love to just stay in bed all weekend! Friday after work I met Chelsie at Oliver Ford. She traded our current Escape in for one with about 100,000 less miles. This will be her first "bank financed" vehicle. She was very excited. After the car purchase, we went to THE ROCK for the basketball game. WOW! What a game. The JV team only won by one point...great game. The varsity game was probably the roughest, least-fouls-called game I have ever seen. I was sure that there was going to be bloodshed at some point. The Pilgrims ended up winning by double digits. Saturday morning was an early start. We, my kids and my folks, went to South Bend to watch my cousin bowl in a collegiate tournament. If you ever get the opportunity to go to one of these, do it! It was so cool! There were teams from all over the US there...Florida, Texas, North Dakota, Kansas, Kentucky, Illinois, Ohio. 64 teams participated. I was amazed. We got to watch 3 different kids score perfect games. Very exciting for them! Saturday evening I had the opportunity to speak to the Young Democrats of Marshall County at Opie's. It was great to be able to pass on information about the Heminger House to another group of people. They were very generous with their donations of money and items for the Shelter. I enjoyed some of the looks I got...I was asked a couple of times if I was lost. They need to remember, domestic violence is bi-partisan. Sunday morning was spent getting Chelsie on the road back to Indianapolis. She did a great job timing the football game traffic. I had a great lunch with my mom and then picked Cole and Joey up and we went back to the Chippewa to watch more of the bowling tournament. Now...after all that...here is what I came to realize this weekend...
1. The weekends go WAY too fast.
2. Spending time with family is truly the best.
3. I still have the passion for HH and look forward to speaking to more groups in the future.
4. I think a bowling tournament would be an awesome fundraiser for the Heminger House.
5. And lastly...It sure would of been nice to have a "someone special" with me this weekend.
Oh well....
