High school swim season is coming to an end which means things are heating up. As the mother of two very competitive swimmers, as a coach in training at one point and as a USA approved team mum, I knew my stuff but at the high school level I am left looking daft, quite often. I have no idea the order of things and no idea when it all comes to an end and how you qualify for what.
I just learnt yesterday that the meet Lily participated in on Saturday was a biggie, bigger than I thought as she was in the local paper sports section yesterday. I knew it was a combo meet with a lot of schools participating but did not realise it was an invitational. I think, but could be wrong that this week wraps up regular season and then it's GMAC's, ( no, I do not know what they are ) followed by districts, regionals and then finally states. Apparently the season for the child isn't ending any time soon.
wah..... Congrats girlie.

A friend sent a text early yesterday morning with this attached. I cancelled my subscription 2 months ago. When I went out to the car to get and buy one, one had been delivered. odd. |
|
Then later another friend friend text to say the online edition had her photo in it. |

Girlie was quite proud.

So Im not sure how many more early mornings, late afternoons and rain drenched pool decks we have this season but I do it's going to collide head on with my sister coming to visit. sigh. But somehow, I'll make it work. How do I order a cloning kit?
