Much Ado About Nothing....

So business has taken over my life. :-p I basically never have a day that I don't have something. Volleyball season ended a couple weeks ago, but basketball started before v-ball ended. So no brake from sports! We practice for 2 hours on Tuesday and Thursday. And since we only get to practice twice a week, when schools practice everyday, our coach makes us work harddd. Like can't walk after practice hard..lol. We're trying to get ready for our first game in a week and a half, which mean we run, run, run, oh and run some more. Yuck. My dad is also once again the coach for the Varsity Boys team, which I keep the "books" for. Their season starts this weekend, so I'll be going to all there games, on top of mine. But I love keeping the books, so I'm definitely not complaining on that subject. :-)
School is...well school. I love my geometry class! Geometry is Soooo much better then Algebra...which I'm STILL doing from last year by the way. I'll be lucky if I get it done before I graduate! haha :-p We're still doing TOG (Tapestry of Grace) co-op. Class is fun, but there is a LOT of work. In the process of writing a 10 page research paper on famous artists of the Renaissance..fun stuff :p. In case you didn't notice we're learning about the Italian Renaissance, Shakespeare, Leonardo De Vinci, ect. ect. ect. We just finished reading Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing"...it's was alright..bunch of gibberish if you ask me. :-)
Chemistry is total BLAH, the end. Can't remember what else I'm doing at this moment...I guess none of it is to bad, if I can't remember them on the top of my head! lol
Still doing choir. It's fun, I like it :-) And we're getting ready for our Christmas concert, so we're doing Christmas songs! who would a thought! I love Christmas songs! Christmas songs are my favorite! lol. No but I seriously can't wait for CHRISTmas! It's my favorite time of the year! <3 :-) Though personally I think it's just wrong that they already have a bunch of Christmas stuff in the stores, and it's we haven't even had Thanksgiving yet! No Joke, I went into a Craft store a couple of days ago and they were playing Christmas music! sheesh. :p
Oh, my foot is still all messed up. Basically feels like there is a huge knife jabbed into my foot when I run, jump, slide, basically anything athletic! I'm going to physical therapy twice a week to "strengthen" it. So I get on the stationary bike, elliptical, do all this funky balancing things standing on all these funky boards, balls, and tubes. haha some are fun, others not so much. haha normally when I leave P.T. my legs feel like jello, and I'm gonna fall over just walking to the car! :0 I think it's helping, honestly I can't tell the difference, but the physical therapist said it is. I just went and got orthotics to put in my basketball shoes, they're helping, pain isn't as bad with them. Going to another foot doctor (there's a special name for it that's like a mile long, and takes a whole breath to say, haha) in a couple weeks. Lets see the first doctor told me it was broken, then he sent me to another doctor who said it wasn't broken, but that I had "tendinitis" (a fancy word for "I don't know what exactly is wrong, so it must be ______ :p), then I went to another doctor who said I don't have tendinitis but have "Metatarsalgia". Now it took me about a month to even be able to say it. But apparently that's what I have....Metatarsalgia. He also recommended I stop playing sports for a while. HA!
hmmm...I wonder what fancy word this new Doctor will come up with....
Ales is coming home from Texas this weekend!!! YAY!! haven't seen him since the beginning of Aug! Sarah and Eric are also coming this weekend from Appalachian. Double YAY! So the whole Family is gonna be home this weekend! Whoa! When was the last time that happened?? Looking forward to it!

Well hopefully this rather long post will "satisfy" some of you for a while :-)

Great to see a new entry...and thanks for updating us on your activities. Only wish we could be there to be a part.
Sorry that your foot is still a 'pain' (pun intended). Certainly hope the new doc finds a 'cure'!
Do enjoy all the excitement of having everyone at home for a few days, and cherish every second. Memories are being made.
Your comments about geometry reminds me of my own high school days...like you, I LOVED geometry (and Physics), but just couldn't get into Algebra or Chemistry. Those pairs share the same neighborhoods in the brain.
Keep up the good (blog) work...don't make us wait so long for another update....love you!, Grammy
