My mom has a stomach virus, so naturally, someone else is making dinner. My dad and I had an argument over who was going to do it. You would think it's because neither of us wants to do it. But nope. I told him I was making it, and his response was, very seriously, "But you don't know how!" Yeah...kinda do. Whereas I've had his food when he's cooked before. Hence why I finally insisted. 😂 Now I'm almost done after having made it in peace.

After I was diagnosed with prostate cancer, I started to take dying pretty serious. One thing I didn't want to do is leave everything up to my daughters to figure out what I wanted. I did a will a long time ago, but, recently did a living will, power of attorney, prepaid burial expenses, bought the lot, directed cremation with no concern about how fancy the container was. In fact, during the process I found a internment container that was painted and designed like a can of coffee. It had big bold lettering that said "CHOCK FULL OF NUTS". I thought it was perfect, but, my girls talked me out of it. Leave um laughing I always say. Anyway, it was a relief to have it all done, paid for and not a concern. They both thanked me as well. Love means never having to say...Sorry for those final expenses girls. I'm afraid I already spent all my money. Good luck!

PS. Fortunately the prostate cancer, although not gone away, is not progressing beyond the speed of snail, so the consensus of opinion in medical circles is that I will probably die of grouchy long before the cancer has a chance.

The coffee can was a funny idea. Laughter through the tears. I like it. I would have said the same as your girls though.

My sister started doing the front flip throw ins from 2nd grade all the way thru college. It was so neat to watch. The ball was like a bullet out of her hands. I could never do it, not tried.lol

Fancy tricks are definitely useful when done correctly, but (most) 7 year olds just don’t have the skill to pull off the Maradona successfully while in a game. I see many try, and I have seen a couple of them be successful, but most of the time they end up losing the ball or, in my son’s case, falling because landed on the ball too hard while running which took him off balance once he went to turn in the air. It’s a fun move.,fun to practice, but I’ll leave it for those who are more skilled. I told kiddo that he can use it once he’s mastered all of the other “tricks”.
T has two kids from Mexico on his team.. they just moved to the US recently, one is a 6 year old and is better than all of the 7 year olds. His coach is also from Mexico and played professionally there.. it’s really neat to watch him do demonstrations of whatever skills the team is learning!

T lives practing the ‘around the world’ but I don’t see him using it in game play anytime soon.. some of that stuff is better for technical training but not in a game...at least not right now. He’d love to do the rainbow as well! I say let’s master some other moves first.

Awesome!!!
Yes, always better to master the fundamentals in anything before moving on to more advanced technique.
After HS I played on an IBM league soccer team with my pop. One of the guys on that team also played on an Austin city league team, and he asked me to play for them as well.
I was the only guy on that team that didn't speak fluent Spanish, and there were only 2 guys on the team (one being the guy that asked me to play for them) that spoke fluent English. There were guys from Mexico, Brazil, and Peru. Boy howdy, did those guys have skills...!!! I learned a lot...!

Back when I first started playing in the Town and Country league, and all the way through HS soccer, I practiced dribbling, juggling, etc. for hours at a time on my own (or with my pop or one of my bros...my next youngest bro also played on the JV team my junior year then joined me on varsity my senior year, and played on varsity until he graduated 2 years later) when I could, along with our regular practices and games.
Good times...!!! :happy:

Are you referring to Root Beer? I don't believe disney sells Beer anywhere else except club 33. or are we just talkin' in general

No not root beer at all. Today is National BEER Day so that is why I shared the picture. It is a recent picture taken at Epcot during Flower and Garden Festival.

Disney does sell beer at all it's parks in Walt Disney World. Club 33 is in Disneyland, which is the only place in that park that sells alcohol but DCA across the esplanade does sell beer and other spirits.
