Hello Friends!

I am amazed at some of the changes taking place in God's Country such as:

https://screen.yahoo.com/new-york-times/intersection-eclectic-bushwick-110447818.html

Bushwick wasn't always that way but it's good to see the diversity.  Hopefully, some  day this will happen in East New York where I grew up.

The weather here in St Paul has greatly improved (finally!). But the sad thing for me is that the regular season for high school baseball & softball has ended.  Scholastic sports remains my favorite form of entertainment.   Sadly, there have been great cutbacks in Summer league sports and we are still awaiting word as to whether any funding for this type of activity will be found.  Got my fingers crossed that it will be!

Everyone please have a wonderful day!  

Good Morning All, Weather here has been perfect for several days. Warm & Dry.
Patsy, Sweet Potato on the hands and face are cute. It's when they get other stuff on their hands I do not find it so funny! Years ago, I was watching one of my Grand daughters when she was 2 or 3. She fell asleep on my lap. At that time she was having a problem keeping her bladder in check. When she fell asleep, she peed. All over me!!! She is now a college grad and I have not teased her about that episode in a long time. Guess I will wait until her boy friend is around and embarrass the hell out of her.

We have 7 grandchildren ranging in age from 22-10. My youngest son & his wife were here at our place several months ago with his 2 children. They are 10 and 13. My daughters daughter graduated from Stockton State College in NJ last May. My oldest sons eldest boy will graduate (hopefully) from John Jay Forensic College in the fall. Enjoy the heck out of your grandchildren because they age so quickly that they are adults before you know it.

Hi guys
Hi Richard!
Fingers crossed for funding you guys need for your sports, etc.
Hopefully it will all work out.
Hi Warren
Hope you & Carol are well.
I had my babies pee on me & my son
Was great for peeing In my face during changing. Lol
My grandson has already partially peed in my face while putting on clean diaper. I
Have to learn to change him quicker.
We need to enjoy all our moments with our
Loved ones.
Life goes by too quickly!!

Anna,

Good morning all....

Happy Memorial Day weekend.

I can't believe my oldest, Kati, is graduating college next week!!  She was accepted into Hunter College's mental health counseling program to earn her masters.  I'm a proud mama lol My youngest, Samantha, just turned 18 and my son, Kevin, finished his freshman year in college....times flying!!

Patsy I didn't realize your anniversary is on Samantha's birthday....Happy belated anniversary.  I also love Pepinos!!

Anna enjoy the new baby :-)

Hi Judy, Terry, Warren and all......

Hello All,
Remember please, this used to be "Decoration Day" when people decorated the graves of loved ones lost in battle. As "Memorial Day" we do a lot of celebrating with bar-b- cues, picnics etc:. That is all fine as long as we remember the true meaning of the day and at least set apart a part of the day to remember & "Memorialize" our departed heroes. Our Dedication here at our Independent Living facility will be at 10:am. I have been chosen to do the benediction as well as lead the group in singing "America The Beautiful". Enjoy the day & cherish the memories......

Happy Memorial Day friends
Hi Warren
Yes, I have already said my prayer today for the departed heroes.
We must never forget!!
I know you will give a great benediction!
God Bless you Warren.

Everyone have a great & safe holiday!
My grandson Gavin is going to a Mets game today with his parents & another couple who actually invited them & their baby daughter. They have tix (VIP) seats where they can eat inside or outside & private bathrooms. They will be up close & personal to the field.
Gavin will be wearing his Mets outfit!
I will post some pictures later.
Enjoy your day'
