Summer Time (Will Smith aka Fresh Prince) ... is over

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. School has officially been going for a week. Not a bad start so far. Classes are good. The office has given me 3 Web Design classes! and a newspaper class (again--guess I did too good of a job last year). Then I have a plan, 2 basketball hours... and then I'm done. Not a bad schedule.

Basketball is looking good. It's a lot more work being the Head Coach versus being the assistant. A lot more managerial kind of stuff than I had thought. But I think that once I get a handle on things, that it'll move a lot smoother.

Well... sorry so short, but gotta run off to school!

Here I go again... (Whitesnake)

I like what Jeanise is doing... I'm going to try to do a music title for everyone of my posts. We'll just see how long that lasts. My sports page kids on my newspaper last year had a music title or band name on every one of their newspaper articles. I was impressed...

Anyway... Tomorrow the teachers report back to school with the kiddos coming back on Thursday. Summer was great! I've had the opportunity to spoil and play with my kids all summer and enjoy time with my wife that I've not had in the past. Jeanise asked me tonight if I had a good summer and I told her that I loved every minute of it. It was just different this year... I hope that future summers will be like that too. We'll see...

WIth the new school year starting, there's going to be a lot more going on this year... but I should have a better handle on it. The classes that I'm teaching... I've already taught. Just have to modify and reprint the lessons. No big deal. The only 'new' thing is that I have to come up with 2 practice plans for basketball. I have a freshman team along with the varsity this year. Busy busy busy... Just pray for me this year that I can keep things in perspective and priorities in order. I know that right now I have good intentions, but know that I can let things blow by me out of control-like. Prayers are good...

Well. Going to go to be early tonight (sure... right) and get a good night's sleep for tomorrow. That's what mom always had my brother and I do before the school year. The only thing that I'm really enjoying right now, is that the kids are thinking, "I'm going back to school. AH!!!!!" I love that...
