April 11th and 12th, 2011 - 122nd and 123rd Day

I wanted to plant my garden on Monday, so I headed to Home Depot in search of plants.  I didn't realize there were 4,000 different kind of tomato plants!  After doing the ini mini miny moe to pick the tomatoes, then I decided to buy some peppers.  I found out there are 5,000 kinds of peppers.  Well, this went on and on, until I finally just picked a few, then grabbed a bag of seeds for cucumbers, cilantro, onions, and Anaheim peppers.  By the time I got home it was 8:30 and dark, but I was determined to plant.  Logan held the flashlight, and I dug the holes, then I held the flashlight while he dug the holes.  We then planted about 25 Anaheim seeds, so I'm sure I'll have Anaheim peppers coming out my nose.   I didn't even get to plant the other seeds yet, so I'll have to do that later this week.  The lady at home depot was very helpful, so she was easy to be nice to. 

On Tuesday my boys had a soccer game, and I'm embarrassed to say, I was not super nice to the refs.  I really need to just be quiet, but they really were not very good.  They seemed to be calling the game very one sided.  Of course, it probably didn't help that we were playing Dixie and they are just better than us.  Logan is our goalie, and he had made 12 saves in the first 8 minutes.  It's one of those times in sports when you really don't want your son to touch the ball that much!  Dixie wears white and blue, and the ref was wearing blue.  At one point, I said, "Ref, just because you're wearing blue doesn't mean you have to give all the calls to Dixie!"  I shouldn't have said that, so on the way home, I made a committment to just not say anything to the refs.  A few weeks back, I decided to not say negative things about any of the players when they're playing like old women with arthritis.   That helped my attitude, so this next game I'm not even going to tell the refs that they need glasses.  It's going to be a challenge.    What do I do if the refs are reffing like old women with arthritis!  Kaylee comes home on Thursday.  I'm more than excited.
