Housekeeping

I want to clean-up my friends list on facebook. Ever do this and were there any hard feelings from people that were removed?

Sometimes I wish I was a bit more selective about who I picked as friends. I am wondering if I should do it slowly, like just delete people that I don't normally see their posts. FYI, the followers of this blog are safe. I read your wall posts regularly and comment on them frequently. You're safe!

Apron Strings

Today is a first for the Milobar household. My baby girl, Emily will be going camping... with a friend. She will be going with a school friend & her family. If I had it my way, I would put her in a bubble and keep her with me forever. Safe and sound. Another milestone I would never be ready for.

Putrid

I'm working on putting together my backrounds. Bear with me. :)

Resolved

The softball issues have been resolved. In a nutshell, Emily will not be finishing the season with the team. There was a huge breakdown in communication between the coaches and us, and when that took place, they replaced her for the tournaments. While we were waiting to hear from them, they were waiting to hear from us. Because they went through the efforts of finding a replacement, it is better if we just leave it as it is. It was an amicable parting at that. Plus the coaches wife was so nice in saying that we will always be friends because this is just "12 year old softball".

I feel so much better now. I hate leaving things "undone".

I think it's time we freshen up this blog!

And That's, That.

This is the last time I am going to write about this. I have spent an entire week stewing about this softball thing. One would think it would be easy to just walk away from it and never look back, however the time and money we have invested into this team and the friendships that we have made are proving otherwise.

We received an email that gave us a deadline on letting them know if we were in for Worlds in OH and IN, which was Wednesday, June 29th at noon. On Tuesday we sent an email to all of the coaches asking questions as we did not want to rush into a decision. As of today, Friday July 1, we have not heard a thing. Zip, zero, zilch. No one has said anything. There was a practice on Wednesday as well and we never received an email stating where and what time it would be.

So. I guess that's that. Time to move on and not look back. I will miss the girls on the team though. They are a wonderful group of girls and I will really miss them.
