(I am reminded of an old Dilbert comic strip where the pointy-haired boss is asked why he hasn't signed up for the 401K. He replied that he would never be able to run that far! Enjoy Dad's post! ~ Tracy)
Derf Here! Enjoying a beautiful day in the Northeast. A summer day in early fall. Fantastic!
A quick catch-up on football: Josh's varsity team lost again by a touchdown against the third-ranked team in the state according to the television report. Josh played well. He is the starting offensive guard as a sophomore. Zack's seventh-grade team continues to roll on with another easy win. They are now 5–0–1.
Sister Jean is now in a rehab facility. Not sure what she is capable of attaining. Sister Deb is currently in Indy, so I'll get a better idea of what is to be expected. Please keep the prayers coming.
Last week – in my haste and wanting to be brief – I failed to mention the following: About two months ago daughter Deb decided to enter a running event. She had never attempted anything like this before. Well, she trained with friends and completed a 10K run a week ago Sunday. (Couldn't start with a mile or a 5K run. She had to go for the gold!) I've been told she not only completed the distance, but did so with no stopping or walking.
Way to go, Deb! I haven't seen you out training, so I assume your race days are over. I apologize for not giving you credit a week ago. Better late than never. Will there be another race?
We are now down to the baseball playoffs. Tonight we'll learn who the Red Sox will play in the division series. I'm rooting for Cleveland to defeat Tampa Bay. This would be a showdown between managers Francona (the manager that won two World Series while with the Red Sox) and Farrell (Francona's pitching coach while in Boston). Go Sox! We want another World Series championship. Anything less will be a big disappointment.
Must have my egg and tuna lunch with Pepper, and then back to the elliptical misery device. Sooo....
Until next time!
Toodle Pip!
Derf!
