Why is it that the opening of a new school term is always so chaotic???
Dropping my daughter to her second day at her new school, (first day for all the returning students) was a total headache! I drove around in circles three times before finally putting the car on the grassy sidewalk ( right beside the please do not park ont he grass sign) I know not a good example but trust me i think every parent who had a child at the school had parked and gone inside for something…so none of the cars were leaving
Then having dropped her off, the problem was to decide where the H#$^ to drive, there was traffic everywhere…..this resulted in me being 45 minutes late…….Sigh, the pressures of having kids
anyway hopefully by next week things will be back to normal….
On another note - What a run for Asafa……and the man still “draw up” at about 85m, why wont he just run through the tape??????? he proabbly would have gone under the 9.70 mark…anyway congrats to him and i hope by the time Olympics come around he would have settled mentally and be able to perform at his peak!
Anwyay off to do the work after being so late!

Thanks for stopping by my blog.
I’m sorry you were so late and for your trying experience. Unfortunately, that’s how it is at the start of a new school term. At 7:00 a.m., there was already a build-up of traffic. I’m trying now to get myself back into the groove of getting up extra early again, which will be quite a feat after the luxury of waking up an extra hour and a half later during the summer break.

Parents everywhere are intent on getting their kids to school looking as best as they can as early as possible on the first day. They can stroll in late or come in wearing rags later on in the year. Sometimes I wonder about Asafa’s mental hardiness.

Hey welcome back …. kinda missed you.
I am so glad that i am not involve in the kingston mix up at all….. don’t grudge you at all.
Asafa what can i say that has not been said yet. He had what i think was a very poor baptism into international athletics or better yet athletics on a whole. Put it this way to date he doesn’t have a medal to show not one single one, excluding the recent bronze.
So he had no experienced in going thru the rounds plus he got expelled twice due to false start in his earlier days. These factors i think bears heavily on why he is mentally weak. His management team needs to address it.

I notice a slight increase in the traffic to/from work too. It doesn’t seem as bad as last year though.
I think its time to take some time off work and wait till this traffic cools off
