Still trying to get better about writing here, but I've been busy since Sunday
We had 4 mini camps for football this year and all of them had a surprising amount of people, or at least way better than last year's turn out. I was better about organizing registration so I wasn't typing or re-writing everything into different spreadsheets all the time. Currently getting all that info ready for tryouts on the 19th. Finally got our contract from our (new to us) indoor practice facility the other day, but because busy I haven't been able to look it over. We got squeezed out of our normal place because soccer kids and they were cutting us a deal on their hourly rate because we're a non-profit. So I'm sure they're getting way more money from the soccer groups. Honestly, there's a severe lack of indoor turf space in the greater Grand Rapids area, same for ice, but the facilities cost a lot to build, so I get it
I was/am a bit undecided on playing this year. I already made it clear our indoor practice schedule wasn't going to work for me (Friday 9p-11p, Saturday 7a-9a), I'm too old to be getting 5 hours of sleep because I like to wake up and have coffee/breakfast before practice and the facility is 30 minutes away. We completely gutted our coaching staff though, except our head coach, so I'm curious about the new offensive we'll be running, but man, I just want to do other things with my time. It's hard not to want the exercise though, and I feel like after Thanksgiving or so I'm going to be busy doing a bunch of crap around the house so that'll keep me occupied
I also have ink art to post that hasn't gone anywhere but my Telegram channel, that's seriously how busy I've been
