Why is February so long when it's so short?

February is always one of the longest months of the year for me. It's the time of year when we have all crashed from our holiday highs and we eat too many chocolate hearts and we are so tired of cold weather. Spring Fever!
Now that I've vented...
The team I am assisting with made it to state. yeah! Big week next week then basketball is over. Well high school basketball. The husband and our oldest son are coaching the oldest granddaughter's YBA team. I simply cannot believe I have a grandchild old enough to FINALLY play. Grandpa said they made her cry though so I am nervous. It was nothing serious (they told her to box out)but needless to say, crying made both men uncomfortable. I secretly smiled (well it's not secret anymore) not because she cried-- that made me sad-- but because they always make a big deal out of it when one of my players cry. Plus neither one of them like drama. :) Then we went to Jason's game tonight and he coaches boys (high school age) and one of his players cried. Okay boys.... I do not want to hear about me anymore!
Jason's boys won and are headed into districts. Good job j-bob. I can hardly wait to see the granddaughter play (and the boys coach) this next weekend too. And hopefully we are bringing home some hardware for the team I'm with.
On an non-basketball note I decided that I needed to stop waiting for the hubby (and my hip to heal) to start exercising again. I tried to get him to go shoot around with me this morning but he drug his feet so I decided to go in the other room and just do the 20 min. workout that I used to do almost every day last year. Then I decided he needed to do it too. The coach in my took over and I whipped him into shape. I clearly told him we were doing three sets and after the first one he was asking for a timeout to get a drink etc. and I said, "Nope! Not till we're done!" He acted like he was dying but honestly we're talking very low impact stuff-- not PX90 or anything remotely close to that. Then I told him we were going to clean the house real fast (that burns calories too). And.... I said, "no pop today" and he did everything I asked him to. He was a wee bit grouchy this evening but I bet he sleeps well tonight and I felt a lot better after doing the exercises.
Rellie and Kayson came to spend the night and we watched Maddi and Abbi Jo while Jason and Anne went to Stake Conference, so it's been a full but blessed day, but tomorrow we will rest.
