gioacchino came over to show Steve and Cooata how to fix their XBOX360

they pulled sella in for a pic...

not just the basketball coaches were effected by the stressed out finger..

BBall coach's... Crap.. now we have to REDO our starting lineup and plays. They are on xmas break.. no games for about a month so HOPEFULLY the finger wil be less stressed.

SWIM Coach's ...who were at the game...Oh we have it figured out.. waterproof tape and you can do Kick Drills...and THIS proves why Sella should FOCUS only on SWIM

CHEER COACH'S.. we would not have broken Sella's finger if she had done cheer... The coaches are ALWAYS impressed with Sella's knowledge of CHEER LOL... Sella NEVER missed Anna and Emmas games they cheered at. Sella will tell them.. No.. when you stunt it should look like this..your not using technique and oh your not cleaning right.

the guy cheerleaders.. were tossing sella back and forth who wants to take a picture with sella...

This girl rushed over to get a picture with Sella.. even though Sella didnt get to play.

A Local Italian club type team was brought in to play the girls team.. Florence did not have a girls bball team ...The boys played FLorence.

The oldest Girl on the Italian team was 28.. 1 girl was 16 and all the rest were over 20. As you can see in top left corner.... Naples did not win.. yet a good time... they exchanged gifts.

Sella didnt go to Swim practice thursday night because her Finger hurt.. but she didnt tell us so Steve and I went all the way out there to pick her up from swim. so 9pm thurs. night she is icing and taped her finger

Friday...

6:30 am... mom my finger hurts.. ice and re-tape

Duirng school Sella talked ot her coach...

Coach..." heres a ball see if you can shoot. Well, you can just dribble left and assit the entire game"

2:30 pm Sella... "Mom my finger hurts its stressing me out about the game... I think Im gonna go see Ms. K and see if she thinks I need a xray..(ms.k is .. our next door neighbor and friend and sella babysits for them and she is a dr....and yes sella is on first name bases and everytime sella is in the hospital she stops by to see ms.k so it wouldnt be unusual for sella to say she was going to go ask her opinion)

Steve and I realize that Dr.K is still on leave.. We Call Emma who is at work and ask her to get Sella started at the Dr. office.

Emma ..."My sister needs to be seen"

Sella ...holding up her index finger..

"my finger is stressing me out"

staff... laughs.. "well come on back"

They do the BP and such...

Staff... " what are you doing???"

Sella..."my dad told me to keep my hand above my head"

DOC..."so I hear your finger is stressing you out... how bad?"

Sella..."well my mom had to tie my hair ribbons for me this morning"

DOC..laughing "well let me look...... ooo your no wimp"

radiology dept knows .. Sella and Emma very well..(emmas shoulder and Sella's foot)

so... its broken...bone fragments and blew out the tendon.

DOC..."Im gonna give you some SUPER tylenol"

Sella... "OH I WOULD LOVE THAT"

DOC..."Explain"

Sella..."well its been really stressing me out because its hurts so bad...

... I have a GAME tonight and I NEED to PLAY.. can you just Like fix it up for that??"

DOC..." No"

Sella..."no really, I HAVE to play"

DOC... "Who are you playing? IS it the BIG game of the season How important of a game is it?"

Sella..." Local Italian team...I'm gonna dribble left and just assit"

DOC..."are you left handed?"

Sella..."no... but I believe the more you use your left hand the stronger your right is"

DOC.. "No ....You might want to consider another activity..chess club"

Sella...NO WAY ...I just joined the chess club for reals.

The basketball team has new coaches this year.

First 2 hrs of any trip HOMEWORK(i like)

On Game Days.. dress up and dress up for travel if less than 3 hrs (i like)

Prefer the girls wear dresses (i like)

Prefer that dresses are BELOW the KNEE...

SERIOUSLY do they make dresses like that any more.. So Ive been on the hunt to meet the dress code ...as many know dress codes are not a battle I choose to pick, just not worth it. This is the LONGEST dress I could find .. Ieven sized up to a Med. because it was 2 inches longer...I'm thinking the leggins should make it OK???
