Rain or Shine

     This week had a great amount of soccer to it. We had a game on Wednesday at 6:00. It was a poorly scheduled game in my opinion. I say that because kids do have homework at night. Yet at least I had a game to remember. I finally scored! I read a pass, stole the ball, and shot! The ball went flying into the other team's goal. It stuck right in the upper corner.

     The game ended 4-3. Columbus almost tied us but the defense survived. Yet on Sunday our team was crushed by Zionsville. We played in a drizzle that day. I found it enjoyable but I'm not sure our fans had fun. The game ended 7-2. At least the burger and shake were good after the game.
     The Lotus Festival came to Bloomington. My mother and I went to see the parade Saturday night. We waited patiently for a glimpse of the parade. Then it came. There was an assortment of flags, colors and even a giant hand waving in the air. The bands played music as the parade moved along. I enjoyed the parade as did mum. I also believe I got a few great ideas for writing. 
     At the animal shelter on Saturday, I finally got the chance to straighten those cats out. There were a few cats in the same area. I had a toy and waved it around. The cats became interested and soon they were all waiting for the chance to get a bat at the toy. Unfortunatly, all good things must come to an end, it was time for us to play with some of the other animals.
     I found my own new hobby, I like marbles. These are old marbles. They are my great uncle's marbles he had when he was a young boy. Did anyone else play with marbles or collect them when they were growing up?
      And to end my blog, Hoover has an interest in my room now. He came in Thursday night and decided to lay under the bed, his bottom sticking out from under the bed. After awhile, he got out and left but returned early in the morning to be petted. At least I can avoid licks by pulling the blanket over my head. It's always a fun time with sled dogs around.
