The Home Stretch
May 24, 2010
Endings and beginnings.
Progress always involves risks. You can’t steal [home] base and keep your foot on [third].

This is the last week of school for the kids. It seems like both an eternity and a whirlwind, like most things. Except for the packing of the lunches daily, that seems like an eternity plus a few centuries.
It also marks a year since I bought this house. There are only a couple boxes left to unpack. Boxes which have moved from the garage into my dining room (or what would be my dining room if I had dining room furniture) I thought doing so would motivate me to unpack them. Finally.
But, nope. That hasn’t happened.
Baseball is also coming to an end. The teams of my 5 and 9yr olds are playing their final championship games tonight. Unfortunately, they are at the same time so I will be running back and forth between two fields. Hoping not to miss much, but in reality probably missing the best of both games.
Yes, I will be running just like this. Complete with the oh shit look on my face, too.
Safe!

Awesome pics! I’ll bet your boys love that you get great action shots. If they haven’t yet, they will thank-you some day.
