Good Morning Army, and Happy Father's Day to those who have earned it (yes, ladies, we earned it !)

Teach them to throw a two seam fastball, a changeup, and a slider and they’ll be rich.Happy Father's Day to the guys. (or the women who filled that role, or tried to) I noticed that my son talked to me longer than normal today. I had to play both roles a lot, and it wasn't easy. Now with my grandsons, I can just be a grandmother, but a really cool one. This week I taught them the art of throwing a ball in the air, and catching it. Catch it high, catch it low. Roll it back and forth between them so they could learn to have more fun with the ball. They were almost in a trance watching me. Both of them shoved the ball back to me. One baby used his foot more than his hands, but that is a start. I know their dad is hoping they will be soccer players. (I prefer baseball)
Got hit in the nose a couple of times, yes it hurt.
I was a catcher. I was putting my shin guards on and when I stood up the guy on deck wacked me in the nose with his bat. Busted my sniffer.My brother was a pitcher, not me. He could show them that better than me. I played different positions, but loved 3rd base the most. I used to catch too. Got hit in the nose a couple of times, yes it hurt. My brother would practice pitching, and I would catch. He was a great pitcher, but threw his arm out. He had the power, no doubt about it. My dad's side of the family were big into baseball. My son had zero interest in baseball, and believe me I tried to get him interested. The kids in my neighborhood all played baseball, not softball. I didn't like softball very much. But it was better than nothing. I always ran around barefoot playing baseball, and hated wearing shoes back then. One day I got some glass buried up in my foot. I can't remember if I started wearing shoes after that day or not. I think the glass is still there. The parks person dug around in the heel area, but never found it.
Men turn into softies when they get old.DH flew home for the weekend. It was really nice to have him here, not me going there. So he got to see the boys and his dad for FD. The oldest shed a few tears when he left, so then I did too..
His first flight was delayed so he was going to miss his 2nd flight. Had to book with another airline to get him back tonight. He won't get back to his camper until 2:30 am, then off to work at 6am. Long day ahead tomorrow. Worth it tho.
Did you know that A/C units are heating up the world...
