My Son is Like ESPN

My Son is Like ESPN: All Sports, All the Time.

I swear if he doesn't get a scholarship to college one day (preferably UNC of course) I will be shocked.

Current sport obsessions are baseball and lacrosse. Mike and Walker play baseball in the backyard every evening (while mommie has some me time) and are beating up his room playing lacrosse. His nicely decorated room has become a bit of a mess - what better excuse to redecorate, right?

I've put a moratorium on basketball inside the house, moving them to the back deck.

My kitchen and living room are covered with balls, as is the backyard.

And I'm seriously thinking about adding a trophy wall somewhere in the house. We've got three already and he's only five!

But of course, I wouldn't have it any other way. What about you?

  1. I know what you mean! My son is 6 and the same way. We have a basketball room on our 3rd floor with 2 baskets, one at each end. He loves it. Last year, we added an outside basket too. Looking ahead, any sort of college scholarship would be awesome, you know?

  2. What a little MVP! Sounds like he may be a Tar Heel yet. :)

  3. Love it! It's so great when kids have a true passion for something. For my son, it is baseball. Even our cat is named after Pudge Rodrigez (the old Detroit Tigers catcher). Looks like you better get yourself a comfy fold-out chair!

Happy Pills

I'm a crazy person. At least, that's what I feel like some times. And it runs in my family. No, not really crazy (and don't take offense if you are one of me), but just clinically depressed and filled with anxiety. It's as if I don't have something to worry about in my head constantly, then I don't feel normal. Luckily, there's a pill for that. It's a bitter pill, one that I'll basically have to take the rest of my life, but I've slowly accepted that it's like any other disease, and just like diabetes or heart disease, that little pill is gonna make me better. But that little pill makes me gain weight, gives me the brain shivers when I miss it, and although I've tried to get off it multiple times, I just can't. So I guess that makes me an addict as well. But it's a pill that my grandparents and family didn't always have, and they suffer from it as well, so I should be thankful for this little red capsule of happiness...
