Porch

Hey, there is excitement brewing around here. We have lived in this apartment building for almost four years. Since we moved in, we've been hearing, "We'll be putting a new porch on your building this spring...." Spring has come and gone 3 times... and NOW.... the 4th spring is the charm!! The wood in this porch is so rotten you can stick your finger through the wood! Yeah. That is lawsuit material. If we had gotten any significant snowfall this past winter, the entire 3 story porch would surely have come crashing down off the building. But today, a flatbed truck LOADED with lumber showed up! YAY! The building next door to us already has the 3rd story section of porch removed... ours comes off in the next couple days! YAY! And so.... our door is getting boarded up so we don't "forget" and try to walk out the door and drop 20 feet.... WATCH THAT FIRST STEP... IT'S A DOOZY!!!! Any of you planning to come visit... you'll have to come in the front of the building. That will be obvious. Duh. Anyway, that is the current buzz around here.

Baseball is in full swing. We are at the field M, W, and F, which isn't too too bad. However, we have cub scouts on Tuesday. So that leaves only Thursday free.... free to study for spelling tests the following morning! :) Will be nice when it is all over and done with. At least I am getting my exercise! The boys play on fields that feel like miles apart! I have to walk forever to get from one game/practice to the other and back. phew!

How 'bout them Red Sox? They are currently giving the Yanks the smack down treatment... in the bottom of the 8th inning, the score is Sox 11, Yanks 3. Beautiful. But I am not dumb enough to think the Yanks can't beat us tomorrow.... we'll just have to wait and see. I am fairly content right now with an 11-3 score.

Well, that is all for now. Have a wonderful Wednesday tomorrow!
