What’s TYVM (Thank You Very Much)? It’s my way of sarcastically thanking all the little things that have ticked me off. It serves as free therapy, and boy do I sometimes need some free therapy! TYVM used to be a weekly meme, however, I retired it awhile ago due to lack of participation. The button is still on my sidebar in case you’d like to play along. If so, please leave the link in the comments and I’ll be sure to come and visit.
Well, it’s definitely Spring. And that means Spring sports. And Spring sports means that I have zero free time.
Thank You Very Much to Buster’s T-ball coach for volunteering to coach. While I should be thankful for someone volunteering their time, I’m pretty sure his coach has never played baseball before in his life.
And, likewise, Thank You Very Much to myself for volunteering to help coach Buster’s team. As if I have the time for this…however, I just couldn’t stand the thought of the kids struggling all season.
To my spring allergies, which are driving me crazy, Thank You Very Much. I know they said we’d probably have a rough allergy season because of our mild winter, but I didn’t expect to be so miserable. Every morning is like the first day of a terrible cold. It’s getting really old.
What/who do you want to Thank this week?

Not sure about you all up there, but it feels like winter here again ;(
Most of my kids have played soccer. To be honest in rec league, most of the coaches have never played soccer. You don’t find too many adults who have, or they are coaching the select teams. I just give them kudos for stepping up for the task.
I hear ya loud and clear on the allergies. Dealing with them myself. It’s April can we just sit somewhere and stay there?? Enough with this up and down up and down.
I’m glad we’ve taken a break from soccer. A lot of the coaches, all volunteers, have no idea what they’re doing!
I’d like to thank this lovely weather. We’re currently in a winter weather advisory. It could be rainy and cold all day or it could turn to snow at any point. I thought it was Spring?
Oh! It sounds as though Buster’s coach would be like me! I would have NO clue what I was doing!
Allergies? I am sorry to hear that- they bite! I am way stuffed up now, but am not sure if it is allergies, or running 13 miles in the rain! Feel better!
Oh I am so there with you on the allergies but thankfully our coach knows what he is doing lol.
I always feel like that after I give the yes on volunteering too. In the beginning, it’s exciting but then your helpers fall by the wayside and you have to do so much. At least that’s what happens to me!
I have awful allergies too so I feel your pain there! The netti pot and I are best friends. I hope you can find something to give you some relief!
I have no clue about any sports so I find it’s important to bring the best snacks. We all have our special skills.
We had a tball coach like that a few years ago. I kept wondering if maybe he thought we were playing football and he was confused:) Needless to say, we retired the boys baseball gloves and moved on to soccer instead!
It is so hard with parent coaches as yes most mean well and it is awesome they volunteer but if they don’t know what they are doing or are a bad coach it totally affects the whole season.
I seem to be having spring allergies for the first time in my life! Driving me crazy
I’m so sorry to hear about your allergies! That has to be awful!
