Been Busy, previews and a freebie

We can wrap week one up and put it in the books. First week of school is now a thing of the past, on to week two. Pretty uneventful other than I had my group of girls from last year start up again..........those who were friends last year are now 'haters' and those who were 'haters' are now friends. One outsider is now 'in' and one 'groupie' is now out..........grade 7 and 8. Think I will be spending a lot of time in my office with this clique.

The B-man's hockey tryouts are over................he was released from the travel team. A devastating blow to the poor guy, he skated his heart out and did very well. First time he hasn't made a travel team, my heart broke for him. With it being two ages together it looks like they are keeping the second years, only 6 first years remained and I know of two that were released, B-man being one. So off to house league we go, which isn't a bad thing, saves me $$, the schedule isn't anywhere near as hectic. We have a coach who wants him already, LOL. The comment was 'I want him with us, not against us', which B-man understood as a compliment. Will try again next year, just as long as he keeps his spirit up.
