Baseball and Odds and Ends



Pat had his best game yet today! He was 2-2, had an RBI, scored a run, stole a couple bases, and had a walk! Maybe we should always play baseball in a heavy drissle in about 50 degree weather! I won't tell you about the play where he got picked off at third, 'cause, as you know, I'm from Stiltin, and that was just a BAD CALL! Anyway, we came up from behind, and I thought we were going to take it, we tied it up at 7-7 (see above photo!) but they came ahead in the 7th. Nonetheless, a good game for our young team; I see lots of improvement since the beginning of the season! Go Raiders!

My sister Vic and I cleaned my house today. She's retired, as many of you know, and she looks for things to keep her busy.... She offered, and I took her up on it! I wrote her a check to pay her for services rendered, and she promptly ripped it up. I honestly don't think my house has ever been this clean! It looks so nice, and I'm so pleased. I saw Vic clean corners, wash baseboards, clean out dust bunnies from closets - that have never been done before! Ha!!!! She pulled the funiture from the walls, we took down curtains and washed them, the windows got cleaned; it was just awesome. So this is what the old-school women refer to as: Spring Cleaning???? What an awesome feeling! I like it! I wish I did it every Spring! Ha! She got here in the morning (I worked 1/2 day) and when I came home at lunchtime, she was still only on the first floor. She and I did the second floor together.... It's hard work this spring cleaning is and Lord only knows if this will get repeated every Spring! ha! THANKS VIC; I LOVE YOU!

I have a Netflix to watch - Must Love Dogs - and I may go and watch that now, in bed, all cuddled up with pajamas on (I'm still cold from the game) ....

Have a great weekend Folks! We're getting 2 inches of rain here in lovely Central Pa (Carol, did you hear that?) so I'm going to clean out some drawers, do some filing, and such.... indoor, busy work.... And then GIRLS NIGHT OUT tomorrow night. I'm looking forward to it!
