I was just wondering just who ordered this 80 degree weather. I don't get AC in my office today it went down and the new one is not ready yet. Yeah. It's 78 degrees in my office right now and climbing. in a few more hours it will be 80. This is making me sleepy. I wish I could just move my desk outside. There is a breezy outside. Turned on the portable fan. It is helping. Hilary Weeks is helping to. So no afternoon nape for me just music and work. (LOL Yeah)
I have been think about what I have gotten myself into with this 5K I have signup for. I need to have my head examined. I'm just so under water on this. I know I can walk it easy peasey, but run it. Oh how am I going to do it. I have a treadmill at the gym, I have been working on it. but boy right now even though its hot, I want to be outside and watch my son play ball.
Wow, Spring fever, brings back memories. My son is 22 years old and so the memories of him playing ball since he was 6 or 7 years old. He started coach pitch. He did well never got a chance to play on a championship team or all stars. He played for two different Little Leagues. Then came the time for High School so one more year of little league and he was done. Between working on his Martial Arts, High School Sports, and Home work he was a busy young man. But baseball and football were his life in High School. I started working at my job 12 years ago. So I took time off to be with him every game home or away. Then came is Sophmore year and I was asked to stay home. So even though it hurt me I did as he asked. But every home game I was there. That year was a interesting one. Then came his Junior year and Mom was allowed to travel again to the games. Not one went by that I was not there encouraging and taking pictures. That year I put together a dvd for the coaches. My son's coach left and a new one came. Until his senior year my son he had not gained that Championship he so desired. But low and behold. He did it. a year of Football Championship and Baseball Championship. So now he has two rings he so wanted. Ever year at this time my head still wants to see my little boy playing ball. I have to wait until late May to watch the local college team play. Which cost me money. Thank goodness it can be 5 dollars a seat, but it fills the need to see him play. He doesn't play but he does work for the local team. So even he gets to keep that feeling alive. At the end of each season he gets a chance to play on a pickup team, so seeing him in a uniform is another way to fill that void and the hurt of the missing that little boy playing ball. He was a great catcher, first baseman, third baseman, shortstop, and Outfielder. He could play everything but Pitcher he tried, but he was never trained to play there. Now he has tennis elbow the arm is hurt and needs rest.
Thanks for the walk down memory lane, Spring is here.
