Tuesday

Went to IKEA last Thursday night. Ceil is looking for some cheap out-of-stock IKEA fabric, and she’s looked on line and called the 800 number. They say she’s got to check the store. I ran the numbers as we drove down there, how much each trip costs. At some point soon it’s better to buy more expensive fabric.

Saw the no-hitter immediate aftermath on ESPN last night. Will and I watched the Hornets-Spurs. Was that lang in the green Braves cap?

I went into such detail on Will’s inning on the mound because right now he thinks he isn’t playing well, when in fact he is. He does hit hard grounders or popups the last week or so, but they’ve been playing on fields where the mound appears close. The conditioning from basketball has helped his catching in particular…he will spring out and pounce on a bunt, fair or foul.

Jeremy should bat leadoff, but as good a baserunner as Will is, it’s my opinion that he shouldn’t hit fifth…cleanup is bad enough, as he steals more bases and scores more runs than everyone save Jeremy. Anthony hits the ball hard, but Will gets stuck behind him on base. Will draws more walks and HBP than anyone, but he often finds himself with two strikes against him. He’s not much of a thinker at the plate. But more thanmost years, I'm fine with whatever the coaches let him do.

Matthew’s baseball career may end tonight…it’s their first playoff game. Hopefully I can get out of here.

Those were the days when we played softball. I only rarely pitched as well. One time I made two straight diving catches in left, so my buddy Hurt made a diving catch for the third out of the inning.

Ceil has to take Will to Roswell Area Park at 4:30 for his 5:30 game. That’s just south of Roswell High…

Ballet recitals are a different world. Now Anna is getting to be one of the older girls, though we do know a couple of younger ones. Sunny did great…one of the best in her class. Anna always knows here stuff and has a big smile throughout.
