9/5/25

Thought of the day

It is going to be a September to remember.


Yes, my wonderful blogging buddies, that is the Shifley sports schedule for the ninth month of 2025.
For the love of fat bassets, it is going to be a busy one.
Lucy is already exhausted, and we are only 5 days in.


Frizzle is dealing with it by eating her feelings. 


However, as stressful and daunting as their schedules may be, we will miss these days when they are over. 


And that is what I have to remember when I am driving across town in rush-hour traffic, trying not to pee my pants because I held it instead of going to save us three extra minutes. 
Those adult diapers are looking better and better each day.
I hope you have a great weekend, and I look forward to talking to you soon.

I will persevere.
I will keep moving forward.
I will be the stream.

  2. So true. Also, one day you’ll have a closet full of trophies that no one will take to their home 🤣

  3. I waited for my turn at the self check last week watching as a customer had an employee do hers for her. Why did she use self check if she didn't know how to self check??
    I hope Lucy appreciates your star of modesty and I hope you survive the month of sports.

  4. When people ask and I tell them my kids aren't in sports, I get a look of sympathy. Because their calendars look very similar to yours, I'm jumping for joy!

  5. I've gone ahead and penciled you in to mow my lawn on September 21 since I noticed you had a full day off!

  6. When will those ripped jeans go out of style? They were in while I was still teaching! I do miss those days of gymnastics, ballet, choir and other activities. They are the times that wonderful memories are made of, in spite of the stresses and bladder emergencies.

    1. As long as there are teenagers, I imagine ripped jeans will be around forever.

  7. Hahahaha
    Jig, huh?

    And that looks BUSY. I’ve seen a that kind of calendar before. The moment the kids go to college, it feels really quiet…

    XOXO

  11. You're right. These are the days you'll remember and treasure long after you've recovered from the exhaustion of trying to keep up with all of it. :) The ripped jeans... I recall seeing them in a retail store with a $125.00 price tag and helplessly laughing. The two teenaged girls who were shopping seemed a little offended when I laughed and then said, "What kind of idiot pays for ruined clothing?" I actually didn't see their own torn up jeans until a couple minutes later. Oops.

  12. I keep track off my life with a bullet journal.

  13. May your month be void of any bear attacks, but if you are so attacked, may the ice cream treat afterwards be good! And I keep shaking my head at the Cracker Barrel fight.
