High Five for Friday

#1

Daylight Savings Time
Loving the extra light in the evenings!

#2

Spring!
I got outside for two runs this week!  I've also been very impressed with the amount of melting we're seeing already thanks to several sunny days, warmer temps, and a morning of rain.

#3

Sports Abyss
Brent finished city league basketball last week and Luke had his last Champion Basketball game on Saturday.  We are currently in a sports abyss, at least until soccer starts for Luke in April.  Of course the abyss does not apply to watching sports since it is March Madness for NCAA Men's Basketball:)  What does the sports abyss mean for us?  We have our evenings together to do what we wish rather than getting to practices and games:)

Helping at Gibbs
I haven't had the opportunity to volunteer at Gibbs (Luke's school) as much as I'd like this year, but I was able to help out at Spring Picture Day on Wednesday this week.  It's always fun to see the little faces in their school environment:)  I got to help "clean and primp" the kids before their pics (as in make sure their collar was straight, their hair not sticking up, etc):)  A funny job, I know, but I got to see several familiar faces and chat a little with most of the kids.  Always a day brightener:)

Perspective & Priorities
I've felt myself stuck in a funk for a couple weeks, for various reasons, but this week after talking with Brent, others, and some self examination, I'm feeling a new sense of perspective and renewed priorities.  Special thanks to my husband for being level headed when I'm emotional:)  Here's to a fresh start!
