At The Trop.

One of my favorite childhood memories is going to the ballpark with my Dad. I remember going to Candlestick Park in San Francisco to see the Giants; to Busch Park in St.Louis to see the Cardinals; and for the last 10 years or so, going to Tropicana Field to see the Tampa Bay Rays play. Since Pop Pops birthday is in June, I usually buy us tickets to see a home game.
On this night the tickets were compliments of Joe, my brother-in-law. He was out of town. The New York Yankees were in town. This was the second of a three game series.The Yankees beat us the night before. But I am happy to report that the Rays came back and beat 'em 6 to2! It was a very exciting game and PopPop and I loved every minute. We even got out of the parking lot without any hassels!

Guest Suite

Have been working on spiffing up the guest bedroom all weekend. Still need to find fabric for the window valances. Have cleaned, organized, and rearranged pictures and knick-knacks and these are the results:

NEW WHEELS

I'm liking my new car. It's a 2009 Nissan Altima- brand new! Had 14 miles on it when I drove it off the lot. It has a light silver gray interior. And COLD a/c! Also a great sound system. Has a nice big trunk and cool wrap around lights. Watch out - it could be parked in your driveway soon! I'm travelin'!

DAYS OF MY LIFE

Much has happened in the last week. Patrick has finally moved on;
I leased a new bright silver Nissan Altima; and finally got some good
news on the medical front.

I LOVE my new car.It is sporty and fun to
drive and plenty of room for hauling my decorating finds and family
and friends. May get to test it on the open road tomorrow - by way
of Orlando.

My doctor is taking me off Actonel and putting me on Forteo to
fight my osteoporosis. The Actonel is not slowing down my bone
loss. Forteo will actually create new bone. It is given by daily
injections for two years. I should be starting this next week. I
am at a very high risk for fractures.

I will be working extra hours at the Bronze Lady due to Carol's
travel schedule. This week is Market in Atlanta. I've been busy
setting up new displays to keep everything fresh. I love that part
of my job.
