So much to catch up...where do I start? I'll start with justice & baseball...
My new friend, Ryan, (who works at the ball park) came to give us the news...we got Bin Laden. I was stunned, overjoyed, on the verge of tears, and then I thought he may be messing with me. He took me out to the tv in the lounge and we watched for a few minutes. OH...MY...GOD...it was true! I rushed in to tell Suzy and quickly the word started to spread. Debi pointed out that it was in the 9th inning, and the score was 1-1 (freaky, eh?). Then the stadium was filled with chants of 'USA! USA! USA!' - it was one of most incredible experiences I've ever had. And I can't think of a better place to be...hangin' in the Hall of Fame Club watching my boys play! So if we had to lose (14 innings, and we stayed for the entire game!), at least it was a New York team.
Yesterday was my brother's birthday, and we celebrated with dinner and cake (from Zakes...YUM!) at their house and then Jake's baseball game. Good times, good times. Then off to see my peeps and then home to make the final preparations for my house guests, Sue & Jonathan. They got in around 2am and it was SO great to see Sue and meet Jonathan (a sweetheart!). They're off to A.C. today/tomorrow so I'll have some more time to get some stuff done. The house looks great, thanks to George, Simon, and some help from Randi (and Dakota)! I'm so, so, so, so, so, so happy! Which brings me to sunshine and freedom...
As some of you know, I've been pretty stressed about getting ready, but today as I was leaving a message for my sis, I became so grateful that #1 - the sun is shining (always a mood-lifter for me) and #2 - I was not sitting in a stuffy cubicle. I was outside, walking 2 adorable pups, in a really cool park in No. Libs. I...LOVE...MY...LIFE...! Now, all I need is to get a job working for the Phillies, and I'll be set!! :-)
