Happy Mother’s Day

May 8th, 2005

I got up this morning around nine o’clock AM. I was tired from lack of sleep. I got ready to go to the Eagles for breakfast. Jon and Janet were there with their families. Ricky came. Brian and his family also came. We were there for a couple hours eating and talking.

Then we went home. I sat around and relaxed until it was time to get ready to play some softball. I got my uniform on and headed to the field. I was worried that we would not be able to play, but the rain held off for us until the last part of the second game.

The first game we were playing the best team in the league. They are eight and oh up to now. We went out and scored a couple runs. They got seven on us and batted around. Then we went to work and played good defense. We held them scoreless from there on out. I had two hard hits that went between first and second base. In the top of the last inning we had the bases loaded. I crushed a ball deep to right field. I started to run. I got to third base and the coach sent me. He said you have to hurry. I got to home and I saw the catcher was ready to catch the ball. I slide in under the tag, but I got called out anyway. I got a small raspberry on my knee from the slide. But we scored enough runs to take the lead. We held them in the last inning and won the game. We were all happy about it.

Then we played the next game. The team fell apart. There was some bickering and it was ugly. We did not play good defense. I had two more hits. We lost by four runs. It was ugly.

I went home and got out of my uniform. I was tired and dinner was almost ready. I watched some of the Sunday night shows on FOX. I ate. Then I watched the Simpsons, Family Guy, and American Dad. I stayed up a little longer before finally deciding an early night to bed would not be all that bad.
