High School Basketball

 Twice a week during January and February I travel back to the high school where I taught for so many years to watch high school basketball. I thoroughly enjoy these games and I love that I do the official home team scorebook. Scoring sports is so much fun. I really miss the days when my own children did high school sports/competitions but they are all grown now. 

Tonight the boys basketball team is having first responders/military appreciation night.  This is close to my heart as my son is both. He is police and Army National guard and his fiancé is a nurse. Thank you to the team for recognizing these special people. The timing is perfect too as January 9th was law appreciation day.


Let's hope we get the win tonight. Go Lancers!

Everyone has reported to Spring training and the first pre-season game is Wednesday at 7:05. I am very excited, but I will have to skip this game because our boys basketball team has its playoff game at the same time and they are more important to me than the Redsox.

One School One Book

I have been reading the book "The Day the World Came to Town" and something is on my mind that I have to share with everyone. Can you believe how incredibly generous and trusting the people in Gander are? I would like to think that I would be the same, but I am not sure. I know that I would definately bring supplies to where ever the people were being placed, but I am not sure that I would open my house up to strangers. I couldn't get over how people were invited into the homes to take showers and the home owners would leave the house and tell them to make themselves at home. I would like to think that I could be that way, but I am not sure I would. What about you? Could you be that trusting of stangers?

What are you reading?

Have you read any good books lately? I am trying to find a great book for the incoming freshmen to read over the summer. The current freshmen class read "The Number Devil", but they didn't like that choice so I am trying to find something more enjoyable for the students. Right now I am reading "October Sky" by Homer Hickham. I am only 60 pages into the book, but I am enjoying the little that I have read. I would like to hear about any books that you have read and would recommend.
