Hello again,
the home has survived day 2 of March Madness- husband took off of work to be home so as not to miss a basket. Wonder why he can't take a day off to do a 'honey do' project? Bet when the boat is ready for h-2-0 he'll be back on the absentee list. Oh I defer......
house full of kids and corned beef and cabbage- thanks to Paula Dean of the Food Network for the 'fool proof ' recipe- it really was as easy as could be- for something to motivate me to go to the store, buy the ingredients, and then invite ( his) friends to stop over for dinner and basketball( and the gas it produces) has to be an easy thing! Don't worry parents, the kids were fed nutritious cheese pizza. A house full of laughing little leprechauns is a good thing on St. Patrick's Day.
Today- more basketball- though this game is live and in person. Daughter has a wonderful friend with even better parents, who have invited us to sit in their 'box(?)' seats for the PITT girls game this afternoon. Then we will head to the strip as a family and hang out in the shopping mecca. ( that is what the 'strip' is- a shopping district in duntun ( phonetics for the Pittsburghese, please) Pittsburgh.
Next week my parents will arrive- 12 hour drive - for my Mom's 76th ( trombones, please) birthday. I have been talking to her everyday ( and crying less)- she is an awesome person, who is pissed at having Alzheimers, but won't let it ruin her day. May the world have more like her.
I tell her it is better than being hit by a truck!
So that is the blog- let me leave you with another Maxine-"don't let your mind wander- it's too little to be left on it's own....." words to live by......hee hee
and one from me: " Don't get caught up in the 'coulda,woulda;shouldas' or you'll waste another day!

Tell your mom to call me. I can vouch for anything being better than being hit by a truck.
