Day 258: Activities

Baseball Coach -- $67.00
This check covers two baseball-related activities.  First is The Son's share of a tournament fee.  I can't remember exactly what the date of the tournament is but it should be a little more fun than the last one because they don't allow any "ringer" tournament-only teams to come in a make themselves look good by playing against teams of a much lower skill level.

The second part of the check covers two tickets to go see a big league game next month.  The Son's team will get to join lots of other local Little League teams in a parade around the diamond before the game starts.  I volunteered to carpool some of the team since it's a mid-week afternoon game and likely that several parents will not be able to attend.

Daughter's School -- $25.00
A donation to the school's drama department.  The Son and I went to watch the Senior Class play in which The Daughter (a Junior) had a small supporting role.  They did an excellent job.  There was no admission fee but there was a collections hat afterward in which I placed my $25 check.

The check to the school will be classified as a recreation: entertainment expense.  I'm so glad I decided to add that category to my budget as part of my New Year's resolutions.  If all goes well, I'll have another expense in that category to report tomorrow -- a concert I'm really excited at the prospect of being able to attend.  Stay tuned....
