Quickly: Sweet, sweet victory. And Step 3.
Posted by: Rich | Championable in Alcoholism, FamilyFor the first time in over a year, my girls’ soccer team won. 3-0. They rocked. My daughter, who is not the fastest nor most athletic lass (but IS the best in-game thinker on the team) got an assist, which made her very happy.
My boys teams have been undefeated for a the same amount of time. My girls, though… zoinks. Last year was difficult: so many girls who just. wouldn’t. listen.
Anyway… today’s game was pretty fantastic.
I was asked to qualify tomorrow on Step 3. I’m a little nervous about that… but then… I guess that’s a chance to practice Step 3.
Too tired, man. Good night.
Love to all. Even you, the two dad’s I kicked out of the coaches’ area.

OK, you must give details about what exactly it means to “qualify” on “step 3″. I know it’s 1 of 12…
Wow, that one feels especially hard to me. I’m sure you’ll do it well, though.
I was going to ask what Miss Britt asked.
Also, Em’s soccer team last year went 1-8-1; this year, they’re 3-0. Baroy is the assistant coach. To say it’s made a difference in the mood and enthusiasm for the game around here is an understatement.
Yeah! It was a GOOD day!
That is a hard one. Although I do not follow the 12 steps program. The LDS religion teaches that we should turn our will over to God. I am a control freak when it comes to the unknown so that is so hard for me to do. I want my will and Gods will to be the same thing.
Good Luck and if you figure out an easy way to accomplish that, let me know. : )
Step 3: “Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.”
It’s one of those “can’t ever do it correctly all the time” steps, in my opinion. But it’s kind of amazing and difficult and joyous and painful to work on.
The girls didn’t listen…I am shocked and appalled! The more girls you get together (is that a gaggle?) even less litening is taking place. Congrats on the record!
Ah. yes. well. Um…. that’s one I would struggle with.
I always say, if God and I could sit down and he could just EXPLAIN to me what his will for me is, and I could make sure we were kind of on the same page… then I would happily submit!
