It was PCT Backyard Monday-- quick and somewhat painless. As much as I try to keep my classes in order, they seem slightly out of control all the time. I don't think it's me. I've been blessed with high energy students this semester. It only takes a couple in a class to change the dynamic of the whole experience. I was given a brand new student in my new class today, which just blows me away-- a new kid to deal with on top of just trying to figure out what I'm doing. I roll with the punches because I don't have the energy to make a big deal out of small stuff. I keep thinking things will settle down and now that I'm more than half way through the semester, I am realizing it is what it is.
I let Jessi stay home to help keep her well. The sniffles and a sore throat started bothering her last night. No suprise given she's coming down a big high. She has 2 days to transition from a water sport to the court. After my yoga class, I showered and took her to school to shoot for 20 minutes. It was the first time she played with a basketball in 3 months. We snuck into the main gym only to find Wesley Matthews in there practicing. I didn't tell her who he was until after we left. I didn't want her weirded out by the fact she was shooting hoops on the same court as an NBA player-- okay, there aren't any basketball players out there actually playing for the NBA currently, but you know what I mean. After a couple of air balls, she started to hit the net... I knew she was going to be okay. She seems to think she might not make the team and I have to admit it's a safe attitude. She can only do her best... it's all any of us can do.
