Above you will notice, Baby Girl… doing her usual gangsta face and hand gesture.  Well, while at the beach meet the child above decided to call herself ‘Delicate’.  You heard it and I did not make a typo.  So, having named herself ‘Delicate’, she then insisted that I have a name.  My new name to Delicate is ‘DA (Duh)’.  That would make me Delicates Assistant (DA)!

Delicate no longer rides in the front seat beside me, she rides in the back seat and barks 0ut her orders, wishes, and commands.  Often, Delicate refers to herself in 3rd person so this can make things real interesting.

 Have I mentioned that there is nothing delicate about ‘Delicate’.  She is almost 5′9, all legs, not very graceful, and has the build of a competitive swimmer.  Delicate doesn’t have enough coordination to play any sports outside of the swimming pool, so without water… Delicate would be nada!

So, if you are ever bored with your everyday life… think of me (DA) and how interesting mine is…. Just sayin.

It was really a good weekend at the pool. Please read the following:

Wave Swims “capitally” At Cap City

Congratulations to all of the WAVE athletes who swam in the 2008 Capital City Invitational. 22 WAVE athletes swam all best times in each of their individual events, 37 WAVE athletes placed in the Top 8 and EIGHT new team records were set. The coaching staff is very pleased with the number of best times and new time standards achieved and racing efforts demonstrated by the WAVE athletes. Specific accomplishments by WAVE swimmers include:

New Team Records:

Abby Johnson – 13-14 Women’s 50M Backstroke – 33.68

So, this weekend we are off to another swim meet.  This meet is at the beach, so it should be fun.  At least we can sit in the sun, while we watch the meet, and catch some rays!

Again, Matt is a legal driver and it is awesome!  Somehow he grew up over night… I thought it would be very tough on my.. but I kind of like it.

Wish us luck this weekend!

Sorry for the delay.  I have been busy.. Shut it, I know that is no excuse… but it is all I got.

 We started Long Course swim season… that always makes for a LONG hot summer.  Baby Girl..aka… MealTicket… Rocked the house!

 On another note… Young Boy Genius in the house can now legally drive, with no adult in the car!  Yep, that scares the hell out of me…. straight to the bone… He turns 17 in 2 weeks… I am getting OLD.. and so is he!

 Now that I feel 10 years older.. I must go to bed.

Later!
