Ahh the madness!!

Tony and I enjoying a nice March Sunday.

Last  year I followed the college basketball scene pretty closely.  I was totally sucked into Jimmermania and looking forward to the tournament was so much fun.  This  year I haven't followed as closely, but I still love March Madness.  I love the last second shots causing elation for one team and devastation for another.  I love the upsets.  I love filling out my bracket (no I don't bet on it) even though I am terrible at it.  If you want to know who to pick just pick the opposite of me.  I lost a Final Four team in the first round!  It's ok though I will always cheer for the underdog, unless of course they were playing my team.  (Speaking of madness my team played in the play in game and came back from a 25 point deficit to win.  That was amazing!  Unfortunately they went on to lose their next game.)

Another part of the madness of March is the weather!  60's and beautiful all week.  I was running outside in short sleeves and capris.  It was fabulous.  The trees are budding, the daffodils are up and the grass is trying to lose it's dead brownish yellow color. Now tonight it is snowing.  Gotta love March in Utah.

Friday night I got a text from my son while Tony and I were out to dinner.  It said, "Mom don't freak out I'm ok. I just fell out of a tree."  After making sure he had no serious injuries, I asked him if it was funny.  He replied, " Haha I started laughing right when I hit the ground.  I only fell about 15 feet."  Only 15 feet!!  I guess that is no big deal to a 15 year old. 

Saturday night we took Grant to the jazz game, courtesy of the Jr. Jazz basketball league he plays in.  I really stopped following the Jazz after they broke my heart two seasons in a row losing the NBA championship to the Bulls.  I mean we even had home court the second year....I am not still bitter though. :)  Anyway, the game was a blast!   The Jazz came back from behind to take it to overtime, and dominated the extra minutes.  Favorite play-Gordon Hayward blocking a shot at one end, and then dunking it at the other end.

I can hardly believe that Friday was the end of 3rd term.  School is almost over!  How does that happen?  How does time fly by so quickly? That is perhaps the greatest madness of all.
