These past three days have involved scholarship applications (reviewing them), a Shannon Cup tournament (raising another $1300), an extensive interview with WCCO (more details later), a volleyball tournament (7 consecutive hours of ass sitting), school, work, and we finished it off with Spartan Night tonight.
Spartan Night is a chance for the incoming freshman class to hear about clubs, activities, sports, and, oh yeah, the classes they can take during their HS career. Yes, we will have a high schooler next year. Finally.
I have some mixed emotions going on, but I see the excitement in Erin and I am reminded that this is not about me. Suck it up and be there for Erin, helping her find her way as she enters the next stage. She's going to do great. I know the next 4 years will fly by. Erin and the class of 2018 can't wait to get it started...
The next 72 hours will include more work, more school, Shannon night at Mayo Girls Hockey (Tuesday 7:30pm at Graham Arena), a little chat on the radio Thursday morning (10am on KROC 1340) and then a book signing Thursday evening (7:00pm at Barnes & Noble Apache Mall).
If we're still standing after that, we will head back to Graham Arena on Friday for the next installment of the Shannon Cup.
So that's the week ahead. All stuff we signed up to do. All for the greater good. Just keep plugging away...
