I can't believe I got sucked into it!

I am about to have a panic attack!  Some of you know that I have been suckered into coaching the cheerleaders for Levi's football team.  Now, once you quit laughing and wipe your eyes, you might wonder how in the world that happened.  Well, my friend "signed" me up.  If I refused to help, there would be no cheer for our team and her daughter wouldn't be able to cheer this year.  I love the kid so I decided it couldn't be that bad.  That was until the first practice that is!  I am not flexible, can't do a cartwheel to save my life, and don't know the first thing about cheerleading.  I actually hoped the girls could help me figure out what to do, but they are only 5-7 years old.  Thankfully, there is youtube out there to teach me what to do.  It has been a month now, and I have learned and taught the girls about 10 cheers.  It wasn't as bad as I anticipated, once I gave up the concerns about making a fool of myself.  Now, the panic part comes from having to come up with a competition routine to do at the end of the month.  I have no idea where to go from here, and only hope that October will end quickly!  I vow never to coach cheerleading again!  Besides the obvious, I am constantly trying to see around the girls at the actual football games.  Go figure!

I have no idea what I am doing.

Welcome to my blog!  After reading blogs of friends of mine, I have decided to join the world of blogging. I really don't know what I am doing, but hope to get the hang of it soon.  I also have nothing witty to say at the moment, but bear with me, I am sure those moments will occasionally make an appearance here (if I can remember to post them that is!).
