Game Day, Maybe.

   

     Today is opening day for the Chieftain baseball team but it is raining. So, our first game will likely be on Thursday instead.  We are not really ready simply because our time on the field has been very limited due to the large amounts of rain we have had in the past month.  Regardless of that we do have some talented middle school players and seem to have a lot of pitching. Another thing that we are blessed with is some really supportive parents that will come out and do whatever is needed in order to help with the field or anything else that may be needed regarding the team.  I would also like to point out that even though my assistant coach has not been able to be at practice, due to him having to teach during that time, he has been a great help with sending out some messages and helping with forms and other types of communication with the players and parents.

     Well with all that said I hope that everyone will get a chance to come out and see a game. If not one of ours then maybe one for your local team. Good luck to everyone let this season. Have fun and play hard.

Till Tomorrow

Baseball season #2

Baseball is here but of course with the rain we can’t really get a lot done. Most of our days have been spent indoors in the gym at school and we can get somethings done but not a whole lot. With that yesterday we are practicing in the gym again and in the middle of one player throwing a bullpen the lights go out. My initial thought was it was just in the gym. Then upon further investigation it is the entire school. So, I asked the resource officer and come to find out it was not just the school but the entire city and some outside of the city. So, for the last 20 minutes of practice we sat in the dark gym waiting on the power to come back on and when it didn’t it was time to go. This season has been somewhat crazy already and we haven’t even played a game yet. At this rate we either need a swim team or start an indoor waffle ball league. Till Tomorrow, D. Pounders

Post 2

      As a teacher I see about 250 students a day (give or take). Most days are fairly good with no problems but there are days when you wonder what in the world just happened and how did I keep my sanity. I was fully expecting Valentine’s Day to be one of the days but for the most part everything went well this year. even though the kids where hopped up on sugar they managed to hold things together. A lot of that credit can go to administrators and parents for holding the students accountable if they misbehave. Thank you to all of you.      Now before leaving home My wife and I gave our kids a small Valentines Day present and a card to tell them how much we Love them. They were both dry excited about their candy and a small gift. It is always so much fun to see the look on their faces when they get something.     Tonight though my wife and I will spend the evening at the church listening to ways to eliminate debt through a livestream. I ...
