Soccer Game + What Is Up With Us

Posted on | March 3, 2010 | No Comments

God is good!

NM’s soccer team had their second game of the season this past weekend. Now, to be honest, I have no idea what the final score was, whether 3-1 or 2-1 (I think it was the latter). They were disappointed to say the least. BUT I was beside myself. NM played goalie in the 2nd half again and he did such an awesome job. Sure, one got through but when you realize how many he stopped (he stopped!), you have to realize he can really do the goalie thing. I mean, wow. Wow!

God is great (and don’t you feel spoiled sometimes? I do)!

Apparently this camera stuff is serious to my husband. The tax return was favorable and it was used to fund a lens. Wow. Feeling a little overwhelmed.

A telephoto with a decent reach means it’s harder for this one to run from the camera:

And the one who loves the camera doesn’t have to run up to it for us to get a decent shot:

Both photos are my hubby’s by the way. I was really disappointed in my shots compared to his but I was trying to work with manual when his sports setting was clearly superior! So I will pass on sharing the ones I took. Hehe.

From the Editor:

(now doesn’t that sound so official?)

I forgot to mention my Dilemma of the Day. It must be noted that dilemmas happen all the time but Dilemmas are the sort you hope to have to deal with only now and then.

Voting should have been short and very sweet today. Get in, show your ID, get your special number, click, click, click, cast your ballot. Voila! Perry is running for governor on the Republican ticke.

Should.

Thing is, our precinct was manned by very competent and cautious people. This is a very good thing, America, no matter how much I whine about which of my feathers they ruffled.

Apparently, their records do not match the information on my driver’s license. Whoever entered in the form I submitted when I registered to vote put down my name as my maiden name. It is fancy and most eye-catching and really doesn’t match me at all. So tiny bells go off somewhere. And I look over at my license and realize that the address on it is wrong!

I wonder if the nice folks next door have received jury summons meant for me.

As far as the great republic State of Texas Department of Public Safety is concerned, I am the girl next door.

According to the Registrar of Voters, I am single.

And am I ever so glad they’re wrong!

Fortunately, the judge at the precinct provided me with a form to mail in to correct my name. But I do have to pay to get a new, corrected driver’s license.
