from last nights blog. Jp he plays the Clarinet. I was sooo disappointed(I can't lie) when my son said "dad I'm gonna do marching band this year instead of Football." When I was in High school we looked down on band members,because we were the almighty jocks. I will say I NEVER made fun of anybody, and NEVER bullied anyone. I HATE WHEN KIDS DO THAT TO EACH OTHER!!! I did put a stop to it on more than one occasion when my "friends" were doing it. Anyway Now I come to find out, they practice three times as much as any Football team I played on ever did. They are a huge group, yet they are a very close knit group, from the freshmen all the way to the Seniors. There doesn't seem to be a class separation that you get even in athletics. Girls and boys together having fun and being friends. It's soooooo refreshing and wonderful to see. I have since told him how proud of him that I am, and that if this is what he wants to do, he has my blessing to finish High School in the band. I told him if he ever wanted to play Football I'd be happy, but under no circumstances do I want him playing football just for me.

I wrote that blog last night tongue in cheek I hope you all understood, because Yes, there will be a day in the near future when he is grown and on his own, when I'll wish I could spend an entire day doing exactly what I *got* to do yesterday.

Yesterday topped out at 80 degrees at about 2:30 in the afternoon, really was a nice day. About 5:00 the wind really started to blow the storm in and by 9:00 it was really cold and windy. I got to wake this morning to SNOW!!!! IT'S SNOWING OUTSIDE RIGHT NOW, THIS SUCKS!!!!!! I'm not ready for six months of cold. my thoughts on winter
