Coach Eric
Football update...
We played a team we barely beat in the regular season and we barely beat them again. At the end of the game deep in our end it is third down and long. The play I call is to give up the 2 point safety and make them take the ball with 2 plays left deep in their end. It works, they complete the first pass to get halfway down the field but they cannot make up the other half on the last play. We win 6-2. Not pretty, but we will take it any way we can.
The rest of my life. Saturday was my dad's birthday. We intended to give dad a card before he left here in early Feb but it is still sitting on the counter. Sorry dad.
My wife performed a number of songs yesterday at our church coffee house. Unfortunately the film isn't finished in the camera so I can't post any yet. Most of the songs that she sang, she also wrote. Someday I would like to get together enough money to rent her some studio time to get these songs recorded and mixed by professionals and see what she can do with her songs. Oh to be rich (not Rich although he has some really good songs too - especially his new Free Stanley song).
I still have yet to perform anything at a coffee house. Not being musical and not writing poetry, I just find it hard to come up with anything that I think people would be interested in seeing. My wife tells me to tell a story while juggling (having the two related of course). Great idea, but I don't have any story leaping to mind and I don't have much of a juggling routine so I have to work on one to create the other. I guess someday I will be inspired. Of course maybe it is kind of like this blog thing, just start it and each time something seems to come out of it. You may not have anything to say, yet somehow you find something.
