This afternoon we had our annual volleyball game - teachers vs. mid-school girls. The last time I played volleyball ... at least 20+ years ago.
5 of the mid-school boys wore tutus and acted as cheerleaders (for us) - they also were allowed to play on our side if one of wanted a break.
I played for almost two full rotations. Which means I served the volleyball. Hence my title. On my very first serve, I not only hit it over the net (very close to the left edge), but it sailed out to where the busses were parked. My next two serves were much more accurate..
Oh yeah, the teachers won. 30 to 26.

A few weeks ago I bought this climbing castle thing that hangs from a door. It was $20, and I thought it might be a good alternative to some of those cat climbers that start at $20 for maybe two levels. I hung it on the door to my office (since that is where I spend my most time.) Kari has taken to it more and more. Right now she is sound asleep in the top layer. This is a picture of her earlier this afternoon - she stayed like that for a good 20 minutes or more.

No spending today (though I got the first book from my weekend spending.)
Sailed Over the Net to the Busses!

Oh, have to love those end of year festivities. My mother had to play volleyball against the 8th graders once, just because she was the youngest teacher (at 45) on staff at the parochial school. Glad you had fun and didn't lose your volleyball skills.
