Vee, If you were to print the top pic off on poster paper I bet your grandson would be delighted.
I hope this is a good week for us all. Stay safe and be happy!!

“Red Sox manager John Farrell contested the call, but it appeared to be the correct one. Regardless of intent, Middlebrooks clearly got in Craig’s way as he tried to run home. It’s not the way the Cardinals drew it up, certainly, but the rules are the rules.”
And that says it all.
Stay safe and be happy!!

What more can I say? I stayed up late last night watching a terrific game played at the Cardinals home stadium. What a treat it was to look at the bleachers and see a sea of red. Awesome!!
Have a great weekend. Stay safe and be happy!!

at 51 degrees and windy. It was brrrr cold this morning in the 30s when I first got up.
My daughter and I went to Kohl’s and nosed around. My daughter bought me a lovely St Louis Cardinal shirt for Mother’s Day.
I am one of their biggest fans. I love baseball.
But before that we stopped at a church rummage sale where I found this lovely whatever you want to call it. I have decided to use it to hold some of my cds. At home I had beautiful built in oak shelves that Jim had built for me to store books and cds. They were hooked to the wall so they had to go with the house. Jim loved to work in wood. I have so many lovely things that he made for me. Rae’s husband is a master wood crafter and he worked with Jim in the beginning. When I moved I had so many things (furniture) etc. that Jim had made for me. I brought it all with me as I couldn’t bear to sell any of it. Jim could take pieces of old things from a sale and they were beautiful when he finished putting them together, but the nicest things are the things he built from scratch. I have a two bedroom place so it is kind of crowded. One of these days I will let my kids take some of it. For now these things comfort me.
I have just started organizing the Cds. Lots more to go.
I hope your day is being good to you. Stay safe and be happy!!

Hi to everyone. I came home from the hospital late yesterday afternoon. Things went well. Now I have to do nothing for the next 3 days and lift nothing heavier than 10 pounds. Not easy because my purse probably weighs that much. I am tired and didn’t get much rest last night from trying to lie flat on my back all night. Not easy. I see my primary care physician on Thursday.
My brother is still in the hospital and not doing well. He is on morphine for his headaches which are not being controlled. His wife is content with the doctor they have now and so far has given no thought to his going to Barnes Hospital in St Louis. Unfortunately, not my call.
And speaking of St Louis, I watched the game Sunday night and it was awesome, one hit after another for both sides. Kudos to the Brewers too, my hat is off to them. That said, it will take a miracle for the Cards to keep pushing on, but hey, I believe in miracles, and especially the power of prayer. Thank you all for the comments to my last post.
I see a bit of green grass peeking through the straw and leaves which make up my front lawn. My daughter stayed with me last night and she picked up some leaves that got tracked in.
Thanks to my other Bro for cheering the Cardinals on.
