30 day thing...

So that really failed. I am not a great blogger and I'm okay with that. Ai just published posts from last August that I'd written but not published. I probably should have reviewed them before publishing them to see if there I something that changed... Oh well.

I am enjoying coaching the swim team right now. It may be early but it's fulfilling and what I like to do. Small crew today but this first week back in school has been great attendance overall. Tomorrow we volunteer at the USU Hockey game as staff. We are one of only 3-4 other club sports that are willing to go and support the Hockey Club Sport (yes, hockey is a club sport, not NCAA, each player pays $800 to play, no scholarship, no massive budget or political clout like basketball or football, also we still come in as the 3rd highest attended sport after those two, SO STOP TRYING TO CHEAP OUR AWESOME TEAM OUT BY SNEAKING IN!!!). Okay off my soapbox. The swim team gets a $100 incentive to volunteer. It is an opportunity available to club sports only, something the spectrum and Romney stadium cleaning should consider. Why outsource to every local volunteer group when our own clubs need money?! I'm talking club sports and student clubs alike. Heaven forbid we help our own students. Sorry, soapbox.

A big project in my department is the new student Rec center. We hope to have students vote for the building and the accompanying turf fields end of February. It's an exciting project that I hope goes through. We have years of history behind it like the first time a proposal went through, politics with the upper administration and a member of. The community got the project cancelled around 2000. Not this time. We have loads of support. We have a building that was designed for a campus population of 8000 serving almost double that. We need it!

So this type of blogging suites me better. Just type. I am more likely to blog in this form. Plus I am using the Blogger app and that makes it more convenient to use too.

As always, I love my wife, my daughter, and I am blessed to have them.
