Was invited down the road apiece----and it was the most ROBUST--LAUGHING--HAPPY'est time I have had in a very long time--
FOOD like U wouldnt believe--BOOZE -OMG---
yet it was the HOST and HOSTESS that made the day--He is *loud* and *jovial* which kept U laughing all day---it would be --if U closed your eyes--while hearing him laugh that SANTA had to be there too!!!
and his belly looked like a bowl full of jelly!!! sloshed as he laughed-- The kids jumping and swimming in the pool---having a *ball*
He could care less if the *sleepy-head* neighbors were being annoyed with all the laughter--his words--*its a holiday--time to relax--laugh eat and be merry---and then the fireworks were awesome---
I didnt want to leave--- but the party was over and tis a *home* where U could just walk over and Jerry and Maria would be pleased to sit out and just chit chat--
I felt like I was back in time----
then I did some cleaning today and found--*a metal shaped baseball mitt--attached to a stand with the inscription saying--
Mr. G---COACH--
In APPRECIATION--LINK BUFFALOS--1975!!!!
Louie and Robert were baseball coaches for the little leaguers----waaaaaaaay back--
Link was our school and the ball that WAS all signed by the kids--wasnt in the MITT--then I remembered that we placed the ball with Robert---
When Robert got his trophy--SIL--kept it for a bit and then THREW the WHOLE trophy OUT!!!
So I have set the *mitt* by L.'s chair----cant wait to see/hear his feelings when he gets a look at it--
Right now L. is up @ Lynn's redoing her driveway!!!!!
And I KEPT my MOUTH ZIPPERED!!!!
Hope U all had a wonderful day---
luve--
Barbara
