The Mean Lime Green MKJAS Team tied tonight 4-4

This was a huge improvement over recent games. They started out the game down by two goals in less than a minutes play but didn’t give in. It was looking ugly. But miracles happen, and for some reason or another the ball found the net. They definitely out shot the other team by a bunch.

Maggie played well. It’s only her 3rd game and I think she’s starting to get the hang of it. Hopefully her team is too. 🙂

Maria is happy.

When I got back from the trip I was unpacking my bike, and was finishing off a left over Gatorade from the ride. Maria picked it up and asked if she could drink the rest. I said no.

The following conversation happened:
Maria: Why not? Does it have sugar?
Dad: Yes, and I’d still like to finish my drink.
Maria: You shouldn’t drink that, sugar is bad for your body.
at which point she picks it up and heads towards the trash cans
Dad: Maria, bring that back, let’s go in.
Maria: OK, I’m very happy about something.
Dad: What’s that? Are you happy I’m home?
Maria: No. women, live longer than men.
Dad: OK, that’s good to know, why does that make you happy?
Maria: Cause you’re gonna die first.
