Back on Track

I took yesterday to recuperate after moving items from my old classroom to my new classroom. The energy fled me, so I put my feet up and watched the Mens NCAA Track & Field Semifinals. That motivated me to run 1.5 miles this morning. Woohoo!

Thursday - MLB Games
  1. Houston at Texas
  2. Pittsburgh at Colorado
  3. LA Angels at NY Yankees
  4. Baltimore at Toronto
  5. St. Louis at Cincinnati
  6. Washington at ChiSox
  7. NY Mets at Milwaukee
  8. Miami at Minnesota
  9. Cleveland at Seattle
It's about time that the Cleveland Cavaliers showed up! Now we may have a series. My final opinion is held until the end of the game on Friday night.

D-Day 2016

Greetings and good morning. Thank you, D-Day beach landers for your heroism 72 years ago today. You turned the tide of World War II and guaranteed our freedoms of speech and religion, among other things. Thank you. Rest in peace, brave warriors who succumbed to wounds while storming Normandy, France.

On an NBA side note, I hope Cleveland has a plan to win at home because their performance out west is unsettling to the CavsNation.

Very Happy Lady Today!


I am a proud Mama today after my son graduated with honors from high school yesterday. He is a good kid who keeps me smiling, laughing, sighing, and enjoying. Now you see that I really am not linebacker sized since he and my husband tower over me. Happy days! Sports writing returns tomorrow.
