The oldest of my brood reached a couple of milestones this past week. First he played in a roller hockey tournament. That is not really the milestone. The milestone is the fact that they lost by a combined 24-0. Yuck? No not really. The yuck is that they have a thing called the mercy rule. Eight goal deficit equals game over. Three games, 24 goals, you do the math. The second game was better than the first because they actually registered a shot on goal. I think they were a little outmatched. But I think he, at least, got to use his new stick.
You remember the new stick he bought with advances from his grass cutting business. He finally started earning the money he has already received. He has now cut the grass 3/4 of a time. Not a full yard cutting you ask? Well the old lady bought an electric mower. You know where this is going right? Let's just say that I might need to up my electric tape supply. The cord just snaps when that blade hits it. SNAP.
I am sure his team will get better and he will gain skill with the electric mower. All in due time.

24-0.....even a blind squirrel would have found the net once. Hope his group has better luck with the ladies later in life, otherwise you will be responsible for adding another beeroholic to the clan.
