Going on 30....

My 13-year old nephew started playing football this season. I had the privilege of watching him play yesterday morning. 

They didn't do too shabby (34-0). I think they have only lost one game this season. Part of the motivation for playing so hard and working together could be to avoid all the up-downs a game loss brings for the next practice.

They did great! It was super fun to watch. He had a good time.

It makes me wonder if there are up-downs that are motivating me in my life. Things I do to avoid a negative consequence or things I do inspite of knowing that it brings negative consequences. Like the delicious eclair I ate yesterday.... :)

Let's Get It Started

Today I found a new online party planning resource . Holiday, birthday, bridal shower, baby shower, weddings, etc. It helps you create invitations or ecards, is customizable, offers list management and guest list management, sends event/birthday reminders, manages potluck sign up lists, links to Twitter and Facebook, helps you decide on a date, links to your e-calendar, links to party planning supplies, manages a to-do list, offers party planning ideas, hints and tips, and is pretty much amazing. In addition, it is free. I'm hooked.

Shot and Chaser

I did it! Today I braved a shot of wheat grass and am forever grateful to the Jamba Juice employee (Alexa) who recommended the orange juice shot as a chaser over an orange wedge. I'm not sure why today was such a momentous day. Wheat grass is something I've wanted to try for a while, but haven't dared do - kind of like my purchasing soy milk and hesitance to drink. (Thanks, Renee , for the recent soy smoothie introduction!) All I can say now is wow, wheat grass - talk about fresh!
