Where has the week been??

I don't feel like I have been doing much lately, although I have been to the gym or pool 5 times out of the last 6 days and am about to leave again for some workout. Doing housework (but not as much as I'd like), cooking etc., Wolves stuff ... and it's nearly Sunday again - suspect I'll get the training kit for washing again as the weather has been WET here, to put it mildly. We had nice sunny spells, but that was about it ... SPELLS. Every time I was ready to continue weeding the front garden it started raining again... :( Had a nice chat with Sharon this week, haven't talked to her in ages, it's usually just MSN or text, but that doesn't replace talking on the phone. Somehow I feel a little run-over, far too much stuff to do, stuff I want to do, studying (Tony is coming over for some E&A in 2 weeks) and not getting time for myself. There's sooo much I want to do and just not enough time for everything. :( Once I am back from the gym I have to sort ...

Scotland v England Youth American Football - Wilson Trophy

And it's done ... after months and months of DH doing all the work as gameday manager we managed to stage the game, had quite a good crowd and all in all had a good day at Meadowbank Stadium. Don't know much how the game went on ... after declaring that today is going to be my "day off football" I ended up being the general dogsbody of the day... ;) From the start I have been doing work: From adding a photo from one of our youth players to his application form for our affiliation with BYAFA , getting signatures from our coaches for their forms, handing out access passes to Media etc, creating access cards for new volunteers, running around to get Daniel (a disabled teen who was Scotland's team mascot of the day and coin tosser) sorted, speaking to all those BAFL, BAFA and BYAFA people (would you believe, we had the chairmen/woman for each of the big British American Football Associations/Leagues attending!!! :O) ), handing over the Wolves Junior application pack...

Manic day...

Geeesh, somehow I wonder whether DH thinks I can read minds. I am currently trying to get our Junior Team affiliation application sorted, and he gives me a hard time because it's not ready yet which means we'd be losing the Junior players to do Chaing gang on Saturday at the Scotland v England Youth game at Meadowbank. :( For goodness sake, nobody told me of a specific deadline!!! I've been on the phone to the head of BYAFA trying to figure out what we can do, but after 30 mins of talking there's nothing we can do - as much as she'd like to help, but she's coming up to Scotland tomorrow ... :( Ah well... I am sure there are other jobs that the Juniors can do on Saturday, like buddying up with the Seniors to do Stewarding ... Wish DH wouldn't be so stuck in his plans... he really doesn't know how to be flexible. :( At least I'll have the affiliation application ready to hand over to the head of BYAFA on Saturday.
