Oh, how did I get a week behind?! Most of these days I don't even remember what I was doing at 8:30. Oh, well.... Here goes!
May 25 - I have no idea what I was doing Monday at 8:30, but we did have a wonderful Memorial Day, getting together with friends--some of whom it seems this is the only day of the year we get to see.
May 26 - Again, I don't remember what I was doing at 8:30. Today was my mom's birthday--she would have been 79 years old. She died almost 17 years ago and there are still times I feel like it just happened. I guess every boy just wants his mommy sometimes.
May 27 - Wednesday at 8:30 we had everyone home from from church and rehearsal--I was watching the Women's College World Series.
May 28 - Thursday at 8:30 "B" and I were at the ballpark--I was the "board member on duty" and, since there weren't any games on our softball field, we had a team practice there.
May 29 - Friday at 8:30 I was at the theater chaperoning the monthly lock-in.
May 30 - Saturday at 8:30 I was home flipping channels between the Rangers game and the WCWS.

May 19 - 21
May 19 - Tuesday at 8:30 I was at "J"'s school, enjoying his performance as The Baker in Into The Woods. We also had some yummy fried chicken for dinner along with the show!
May 20 - Wednesday at 8:30 I was at home--watching tv, maybe? I can't even remember!
May 21 - Thursday at 8:30 I was driving home from softball practice with "B."

May 16 - 18
May 16 - Saturday at 8:30 I was sitting in Dairy Queen with the family. The girls had just gotten back into town from camping with the Girl Scouts and we needed and easy, quick dinner.
May 17 - Sunday at 8:30 I was on the way home from the theater with "J." We had an improv session.
May 18 - Monday night at 8:30 I was just pulling into the Walmart parking lot. Needed to get a new battery for the truck.

May 13 - 15
May 13 - Wednesday at 8:30 I was driving home from church with both the kids.
May 14 - Thursday at 8:30 I was home watching tv. Nothing big on, just waiting til Jenny was ready to watch Survivor which we had recorded during the 7:00 hour.
The big thing that happened to me today was a couple of hours earlier at softball practice. I had the girls hitting from a tee and I had a bucket of balls so I could just put another ball up after they hit one. Anyway "B" was batting and when I was placing a new ball on the tee, she caught me with her backswing and really whacked my finger--I actually think it could be broken. It hurts even to use it to type.
May 15 - Friday at 8:30 I was at the ballpark. We had a game tonight which "B" missed because of her Girl Scout camping trip. We won the game on a forfeit because the other team only had 7 players there, but we played anyway and I was able to see some girls pitching for us who hadn't gotten in a game before since the game didn't really matter--was just happy to see them actually doing some of the things we've been teaching. By 8:30 our game was already over and I was umpiring for the older girls game.

May 9 - 12
Ok, time to catch up again....
May 9 - Saturday at 8:30 I was outside throwing a nerf basketball around with "B," her friend "A," and "A"'s dad. At least, I think it was close to 8:30. For some reason, my reminder didn't chime on my phone, so I'm guessing.
May 10 - Sunday night I was at home, watching the last episode of The Amazing Race. I'm glad Tammy and Victor won. I liked them, plus I was mainly glad it was NOT the cheerleaders--have you heard the phrase "The Ugly American"? They definitely personified that.
May 11 - Monday night driving home with "J" from TROUPE. We had a live announcement of the nominations for BVT's "Ovations" awards tonight. "J" and I are nominated in several categories, and even competing with each other for one. Ovies Night is May 26!
May 12 - Tuesday night at 8:30 I was moving softball equipment from my truck to the garage. "B" and I had a game tonight and we'd just gotten home. We lost again (it's been a tough season for us) despite a great effort by the girls, including 5 strikeouts by our pitcher--and "B" got on base twice and scored a run. We'll get 'em next time!

May 5 - 8
May 5 - Tuesday night at 8:30 I was at "J"'s school band concert. It's amazing how much the kids have improved this year.
May 6 - Wednesay night at 8:30 I was at Wal-Mart with "J." We stopped to pick up a new flash drive for him to save stuff from his school computer, which he had to turn in this week...no laptop for the summer.
May 7 - Thursday night at 8:30 I was at home waiting for the Rangers game to start--I hate the West Coast trips.
May 8 - Friday night at 8:30 "B" and I were in the middle of our softball game. It was a wild affair--we lost 13-12, but twice we had to stop batting because we had scored the 5-run limit our league plays with, including the last inning when we still had the bases loaded!

May 2 - 3
May 2 - Saturday night at 8:30 "B" and I were standing in line for concessions during intermission of "Mother Goose, Inc."--featuring our "J" as the Brave Little Tailor. A very funny show with several added musical numbers--original parodies written for the Brazos Valley TROUPE production. My favorite was "Can't Cut This"--Rapunzel wishing her hair was shorter, to the tune of MC Hammer's "Can't Touch This."
May 3 - Sunday night "B" and I were driving home from church. Tonight was our monthly "1st Sunday" meal after the evening service. I spent part of the time fellowshipping with some of the teenagers while we had the Rangers-White Sox game on the big screen in the auditorium.

April 29 - May 1
April 29 - Wednesday night at 8:30 I was not driving home from the theater with "J." Instead I was walking in through the front door of the theater to pick him up.
April 30 - Thursday night at 8:30 I was at the ball park (seems to be 2 different themes repeating). It was my night as "board member on duty." It was a very quiet night, no incidents.
May 1 - Friday night at the ball park again. "B" and I had a 6:00 game--another that didn't quite go the way we wanted it to. We seemed to have the momentum on our side and only trailed by 2 going into the other team's last inning at bat. We got the first 2 batters out, then they just started hitting the ball all over the field. We lost 9-3. Anyway I was umpiring the 2nd game and that's where I was at 8:30.
