Has Anyone Pulled Off An April Fool Prank Today?

------------------------------------------ The day is nearly half over and I haven’t pranked anyone yet! I think I am slipping the older I get or possibly I just don’t get into as much as I used to! I will admit I do love a good prank whether I do it or it happens to me! I think perhaps my newspaper... Sign in to see full entry.

I Need a Blogit Hug! I Have Some Bad News, But Not Devastating News!

After a 25 year run of making the playoffs in hockey my beloved Red Wings were eliminated last night! I knew it was going to be difficult to win last night since it was their third game in as many days. Back to back days are tough enough but three makes it impossible to have enough stamina to get...

Horrible Ending to the Wings Hockey Game Last Night! Just Horrible.

Andreas Athanasiou was on a breakaway toward the Carolina Hurricanes goalie Eddie Lack. As Athanasiou shot he was cross checked and his elbow hit their goalie. His neck whiplashed and I thought for certain it was broken. He laid motionless on the ice until the emergency personnel secured his neck... Sign in to see full entry.

It’s Official, I’m Done, Washed Up, Out of the Tournament!

The last team I had in the NCAA tournament went down today in the first game! I no longer qualify to win a darn thing! It was fun while it lasted! The Final 4 is going to be exciting! There are some great teams out there and whoever wins it will have survived a great tournament! Since I live in the... Sign in to see full entry.

Hopefully Someone Can Benefit From My Blunder! Tough Lesson, Indeed!

Yesterday I got a letter from one of my credit card companies indicating that my account with them had been closed due to inactivity for more than a year. I didn’t use the card because I felt the interest was more than I was willing to pay in the event I couldn’t pay it off each month! However I... Sign in to see full entry.

Rainy and Cold! The skiers are Happy Because There’s Snow in the Mts!

It has been a very cold and rainy day! But Jessica and Chris are happy on two fronts! First, they wanted to get in 50 days of skiing this year. The mountain where they ski got three inches of snow today! So, they are on day 41 with three weeks left in the season! I believe they will make their goal.... Sign in to see full entry.

My Goodness it’s Feast Famine it Seems!

Last night I was in 7th heaven with the USA shutout of Puerto Rico! And, it didn’t hurt that Ian Kinsler from my Detroit Tigers hit a homerun that turned out to be the game winner. Puerto Rico had a fine team but it was my team’s night! GO USA!!!! Then today my Tigers lost their game in the bottom... Sign in to see full entry.

Tonight is Set Up to be a most Exciting Evening for Me!

------------------------------------ Last night I was texting with my nephew, Alex, during the Japan/USA baseball game. It was a real nail bitter, too! Luckily the USA was able to capitalize on to miscues by the Japanese ballplayers! You have to feel bad for them because that’s a rough way to lose a... Sign in to see full entry.

I Must Admit, I’m a Little Burned out, Could it be Blogit?!

------------------------------ The answer is an emphatic no! It’s with watching sports! Yesterday I watched 4 basketball games, 3 baseball games and 1 hockey game. Today I watched 4 basketball games and 1 baseball game! I could be watching more basketball but I am just burned out on watching sports... Sign in to see full entry.
