@Cbear24 I wish we had no fall sport to worry about, but we do. And it starts in 24 days. His first league game is August 7. Then it is a sprinted marathon of sports, school and apps until March. Our last college visit is in late July as he has exactly two days between aug 1 and thanksgiving where he is free. Thank goodness he is not a procrastinator and he is all over his app schedule. They will roll out about 3 weeks apart, starting aug 1. Five will be done by the time hockey starts on Nov 1 and then we start the dreaded death march to the ED decisions in December. Then we will likely start all over with the RD apps! Yay!
And I have been around hockey my whole life. My youngest will carry ants outside instead of stepping on them, but then attempt to rip someone’s head off in a game an hour later. I have never understood how someone with a mild temperament can be so aggressive on the ice. This year marks my 24th and final year as a hockey mom. I am ready to hang up my cowbell.
