A Busy Sunday

Today we went to church. "wife" teaches confirmation before the the service. "boy" was a bit tired by the time church started. he ran around the church, up and down stairs, in the gym. i had to take him to the nursery as he was a bit loud during the service. He brings a smile to everyone's face and is such a happy kid. smiles for miles.
then we went to see his great grandma in the nursing home. it is so hard to go and see her needing help to get up, go to the bathroom, etc. she was a pretty fiesty lady in her day and it is not a nice way to live out your golden age, sleeping and eating and sleeping and eating.
i have lost relatives both ways slow and painful and quick and painless. i choose the latter. (as i f i have a choice)
after chuch we went to pick up a electrical box from a house the church demolished and someone saved for me fo the new house, but i think is going to be too small of a circuit box. it only has spots for a dozen or so breakers. i think i will need that many for just the kitchen. lol
then to lunch with my parents. "boy" made it in the door before he fell asleep. apologized to the folks and headed for home. we had a party to go to........my neice's 4th birthday party.
stopped to get a few things at the grocery store. stopped at the house to get the b-day present and
to the party. the party was for "wife's" side of the family. most all relatives were present. A Diego birthday with tacos and nachos, a pinata (cheap thing took one hit before spilling it's booty) and, of course, cake and ice cream. I had a few beers (2 is a few) and too many tacos. (more than 2) came home about 4pm and we all took a nap. up at 8pm and "boy" ready for a few more hours of running around. it is 1 am now and i better go to bed, i assume i won't fall asleep very fast (just having a 4 hour nap).
I am very excited the basball season starts tonight. i am very sad i cannot see my braves play the first game on sunday night baseball. i gave up cable to save some money. this is when no cable will really hurt. i really only miss a few shows, survivorman, how it's made, HGTV, but baseball is the thing i will miss most. i can watch any 2 teams play each other. i just love the game.
my wife is an Indians fan and I am a Braves fan. I don't think they play each other this year, as we always try to go to cleveland to see a game when they do. i don't even think the pirates play the indians. This is a nice series as we live between the 2 cities and within a few hours can be in either stadium. "wife " got tixs for the Indians vs. Yanks game. note sure of the date. I think it is a sunday game. i don't mind going to see a bush league game. (as any league that doesn't let the pitcher bat in no major league team, in my book) i will have to see if the braves are playing in pittsburgh.
well, good night, 3 days in a row.......... a good start.

oh, i almost forgot, my new obsession is "dexter" the serial killer that only kills bad guys. i watched it tonight. i'm not sure if it is on sundays or they are running repeats. but i usually find it and watch it, whenever it is on, with amazement. hats off to showtime for selling it to CBS. (or however it came to be on network tv) sure it is edited. i can see people's lips swear and non-swear words come out, but it is a small price to pay for a good watch.
