What A Great Night For Soorts Last Night!

I had the best time watching sports last night. My Pistons are in first place and they took on the Boston Celtics at Little Caesars Arena. The gam e was physical and close throughout. Jaylen Brown's shot hit outside on left side of the rim and bounced off as time expired. Pistons got the W! The... Sign in to see full entry.

Big Game Tonight! My Pistons Are Playing. Also, Another Game, LOL!

The college championship game is tonight. I'll be watching but I will have my Pistons on as well. I am rooting for Indiana since they are from the Big 10. I wouldn't rule out the team from Miami. They have been very good all year and tough in the playoffs. I am hoping for a great game no matter who... Sign in to see full entry.

Sunday Football and Red Wings Hockey! Wonderful Sports Day!

I finally got the ornaments off the 7 trees I decorated. I pride myself in organizing but I have no idea where my head was back in November. I can't find 3 critical boxes for my nutcrackers and my Tigers' tree topper. It's a good thing I live alone because my current mess of decorations would drive... Sign in to see full entry.

Football Playoffs, Sad Ending Too!

I was watching the Buffalo Bills and Denver Broncos at Jessica and Chris' house today. About 5 minutes before half time my grandson who is 8 and adores his Uncle Chris used his Dad's phone to text him about the game. They had a cute conversation and it was do adorable for Mason to text him.... Sign in to see full entry.

T.G.I.F. My Favorite Part Of The Week!

Today was a do nothing day for me at the salon. Jessica had one client and it was an a retouch color. The products she uses on this particular client don't bother my asthma. After she was done we started watching season 10 of Gunsmoke. A couple of years ago we bought the boxed set of 20 seasons. I... Sign in to see full entry.

I Had Quite A Nice Surprise Tonight! Once In A Blue Moon Type Surprise!

Late this afternoon I received a message on Messenger from my daughter-in-law and son. They were headed to Boise to pick up supplies and to see me. Yahoo, I was their first stop. They are only going to be in town for the night then back to the mountains in early morning. They have a cat so they... Sign in to see full entry.

Such A Lovely Wednesday!

My daughter had a color today so I stayed home. I completed the paperwork. Two days ahead of my projected timeline. Now it's off to double checking the figures and making sure they are in the right places. I started putting Christmas decorations up, we'll just the train so far. I didn't take it out...

Tuesday And A Day For Mishaps Of One Kind Or Another!

I should have guessed that the day was going to be different from the onset. I awoke at 6 a.m., drank my first glass of water with rosemary and apple cider tincture. Then completed the 250 abdominal exercises ( 5 different exercises with 5 reps of 10 each); then the ankle exercises (5 different... Sign in to see full entry.

GRRRRRR, LOSING A POST IS THE WORST!

I keep telling myself to stop writing my posts on my phone. I invariably lose a post by hitting the wrong command. Alas, I am a victim of my own impatience. I had a nice entry and when I attempted to highlight it in bold, a pop-up appeared and I hit translate, twice it happened. On the second... Sign in to see full entry.

It's Sunday And A Repeat Of Saturday!

I have spent the day watching football. There have been great games. Both games had final drives that could have won it for the home team. The Jaguars were intercepted, the Eagles had a 4th down and the pass was incomplete. Congrats to the winners. I'm stoked for my son-in-law, Chris, he roots for... Sign in to see full entry.
