ok - well that didn't last long!

Basketball season for Jake is over!! I know, the shortest season ever - right.

Well, the league that we signed up with (who will remain nameless - even though I would like to slander them!!!) lost their minds - literally. The League has been around for a long time - very well organized and put together...........or so we thought. From what I found out - since we pulled ourselves out of this league - is that the Kindergarten part of the league is NEW!!!!! Ok - explains a TON!

Let me explain.....when we signed up - the practices were suppose to be at 5:00 PM on Fridays' with games on Saturday at 1:00 and 2:00.....both of these events were to happen at a place called The Gym - which is located close to where we live.......which would be the reason we signed up with them...........

They kept canceling practices - I couldn't figure out what they were doing - I mean - you would think that if you are going to have a game - you might need to practice - especially since you are 6 years old and want to grab your face and run every time the ball is coming towards you - you might want to practice!!! Then, the game times kept being moved around. The problem with all of these changes is that they would send you an email about 2 hours before the change in schedule......I can't work this way - all of you who know me well - you know that I am a very organized person and don't do well if it's not planned down to a tee!! LOL - I don't do well doing impromptu stuff.....I'm getting better - but I'd rather everything be planned out for me.

Then, they decided to change the practice from Friday to Tuesday - from 7:00 - 8:00 PM - uh hello - these are kindergarten kids who go to bed at 7:30.......and, they wanted to send us to a Kindergarten middle school about 30 minutes away and the practices were going to be held in the cafeteria.....Ok - this is not good.....I'm already thinking - I'm done....this is crazy!!!!!

The last straw - they games are now being held on Saturday and SUNDAY......that was it - I was finished. I'm old school and was raised to respect Sunday. We go to church as a family and we are not missing church so my 6 year old little kindergartner can play basketball.............

Mark and I both agreed that the league we signed up for was not what we were getting and my business man husband drafted a brief, but very STERN letter to them and we terminated our participation and requested a refund.

come to find out - since this part of the league was new - they didn't think that we would mind being shifted around with a moments notice.........they have quickly found out - after losing several kids.......that is not so much the case.

so, another saga down and out in our life.....LOL....jake was like - ok - whatever. Next.

No future of a NBA star coming from this house............Mozart?

Love to all
