The Road Not Taken

Well today's blog will be short because there's not much to report and Mom will be home in 2 days! I almost missed Maegan's running last night. The track meet was in Vidor and her first run was at four. Our aide was out today so I couldn't leave work early for the first run. She said she bettered her time by over a minute in her 2 mile which was really great. Her 1 mile run is the last thing at the meet and she usually runs around eight so I planned on leaving around seven and running by to pick up some food for us. At 6:10 she texts me and says there's only 2 runs before hers. Now there is several heats of girls and several heats of boys, so 2 events really means like ten runs. Still I got a little panicked and hopped in the car to race out to Vidor. As I was exiting the highway she calls and says they've called for her to warm up. Yikes! I got there a few minutes later and raced to the starting line at the fence. She was still on the field warming up and she didn't end up running for about fifteen more minutes, so I was there in plenty of time. Maegan said so many kids were not there because of Spring Break that there were fewer heats in each race and the last run that was scheduled at 9:45 ended up being run at seven! Anyway, she did a good job and I was there to cheer her on. She was so tired, we came home and she showered and was in bed before ten. Then she had to be up at 6:45 this morning to go to UIL at her school by 7:45!!! Poor baby just can't slow down and get rested. Then she'll have to get up for Sunday School in the morning so I know she's looking forward to NOT hearing that alarm in the morning. The UIL meet is at PNG today but just for Math and Science so she's only doing her Math event today and she thinks it will all be over after lunch. On Tuesday she took the Reading TAKS and when I got home and asked her how it went she said "It was easy". That's all the info I got and exactly what I expected her to say. She also got her report card yesterday, all A's, of course. Anyway, that's all my news for this Saturday morning. I'll see all of you on Monday. Love you....
