And they even sang Happy Birthday to him in Italian. Cool, huh?
I love the one photo of Olivia; what a doll baby.

Now these really are Pat, and you can actually see him, kinda (No. 23)...
Here's a funny, the boy who's on the floor, fighting for the ball with Pat, the Susquehanna Township player, happens to be a good friend of our's. We've tracked Kirk's basketball career for years now. A nice kid from a nice family. So, it tickled me that The Patriot took this shot of the two of them. Kirk's a monster under the boards; he had 22 pts. and a great, great game! We lost by only 2 buckets. Get this, we were down by 23 at one point and came fighting back! Gotta love our Raiders; they never ever give up, well, sometimes they do, but last night they didn't. We even did the Eddy Albert Roller Cheer, but spelled RAIDERS instead of ROLLERS. Oh geez, Eddy would have been so proud of us!
ps. Pat had a great game too, I must share 'cause I haven't lately, but my cup runneth over right now, and if I don't share, I'll explode, and you don't wanna see that.... ;)
ppss. Happy Birthday Mother...

Adopt a Greyhound, please...
Pat and I manned a Meet and Greet at Border's Book Store on Saturday morning. Not only did I spend QT with my son, but hopefully, we managed to convince potential dog owners to rescue a Greyhound! We saw another Greyhound there who looked just like our Dawn! You can see her in the picture aboves - in the second photo, she's in the middle of Dawn and Mack. What a nice girl she was! We had lots of fun, and this will be my full time job as soon as I put Pat through college. Geez, I hope he does it in four years! ha!

Lazy Ways and Sundays....
I love lazy Sundays, and wish every day was one! I had little planned all weekend which was GREAT. There's always something to do, and when nothing is planned, I LOVE it! This afternoon, I blasted my iTunes and worked in my office for hours. Hours passed and I didn't even realize it. (OK, maybe that was because of the two glasses of pinot noir??? Not sure...) Anyway, I got lots done, but still have hours of work on Pat's scrapbook that I keep for him - basically, all the Patriot News articles on Middletown B-ball, and the Press and Journal. The pile is about 8 inches now, and when it's one foot, I promise to scrapbook it then! I'm waiting for a cold, snowy weekend to devote to that!
Yesterday, I grocery shopped, brought all the things home, put them away and started supper when the phone rang. Joe answered and all that I could hear was, "Yes, this is Joseph M*******, oh my God, really, really, that's horrible, I'll be right there." My heart sank while making my Dream Dinner. I said, "Joe, what's wrong, was there an auto accident?" He said, "No, you left your wallet at the grocery store." OMG! Is that it??????? All that drama over a wallet???? Ok, guilty, I did leave my wallet in the cart......... And, I'll have you know, I have a new-found faith in the folks in Central Pa. All the money was left in it! All $40! And trust me, that's a lot, 'cause I NEVER carry any money! The only reason the cash was there was because I sold lottery tickets for Pat's fundraiser the night before! Hallelujah! My $40 was there! (I won't mention that my sister left her paid-for bagged groceries in the cart when Jordan was a baby!!)
That was our drama for the weekend. My 10 year old wallet is safe, all of its' contents in tact, and my Dream Dinner was fantastic - Chicken Marsala, with NO toothticks added!
HAVE A GREAT WEEK AND DON'T WORK TOO HARD!

So Long Santa!
All the stockings that were hung by the chimney with care are gone;
The tree has shed it's very last needle on my rug;
The thank you notes have just been sent;
Joe just threw out the Egg Nog that someone brought;
I drank the last glass of the grigio tonight;
The Farm Show is starting....
It's officially January............
:(
PS. But, gotta love these 60 degree days, right? Not so bad, huh?
