Take Me Out to the Ball Game!

We ended our work week working on the crawl space some more, which was kind of a downer compared to working on the roof, but we were in the safest place during a crazy thunderstorm that hit...instead of a tornado! That is one scenario where I prefer a thunder storm! Saturday night the boys and I went to The Idiot Box comedy club, which was really fun! Then we went to a local pub, Natty Greens where I got a delicious chocolate raspberry cheesecake! Then we walked the mile home, but I was in shorts and it was pretty chilly! Sunday I slept in until about 11:30am, to try and make up for having to get up at 6am all week...and then we went to a Greensboro Grasshoppers minor-league baseball game at 4pm. It was a great day for a baseball game, nice and sunny, but not too hot, and the stadium was really new and clean and we had great seats for only $8! Now that is something that we on the AmeriBudget can really afford :) I also met up with my college friend who I played bball with freshman year at Gordon, Meredith!
She goes to grad school at Duke, which is only like 45 mins-an hour away, so it was great! She had never been to Greensboro before and she got to meet my team and we got to catch up, which was really fun :) Today we volunteered at Greensboro Urban Ministry, the boys were serving food in the cafeteria, Norah and Alleigh were sorting food in the food bank, and Neva and I were sorting and folding clothes in the clothing store portion of the building. It was a really cool place, and we are signed up to volunteer there every Monday so thats cool. I had such a bad sore throat last night that I wasn't able to sleep much, and this morning it was even worse, so standing up, folding clothes for 4 hours was kinda tough for me...but I think on a day when I am feeling better it will be really fun!

  1. Comedy club, baseball, and Meredith...sounds like fun!
    Take care of that sore throat, honey. I hope it gets better soon. If not, I'll check with the Doctor about what to do.
    Love you,
