Villanova and the Final Four

 

I know I am not supposed to root for a rival Big 5 Basketball team, especially not for the team that singlehandedly weakened the Big 5 (some would say destroyed it, but I have seen games this season in the Palestra that shows the core Big Five Vibe is alive and well).  BUT, on the 85th day of 2022, I find myself happy to see the Villanova Wildcats heading for the Final Four.  I wanted Michigan to bear them, because my friend's son is in the UM Pep Band, but when that was not meant to be, I started cheering for them  I mean, I had Nova/Gonzaga in the Final Game so it does not hurt my bracket (which is otherwise busted) to see them keep winning either.  SO, my 2 for 2022 for 3/26/2022 is Villanova and the Final Four.  I am rooting for Kansas (who I have in my bracket as well) and St. Peter's tomorrow.  And I think a St. Peter's/Nova Final would be amazing.  Let's see what happens....

Facebook and Memories

  I know a lot of people who have given up on Social Media.  And, yes, I concur that the FB business model is filled with issues and shadiness.  But, on a rough day at work on 4/20/2022, I looked at my FB feed and a memory came up that made me beam with joy.  You all probably can see the memory below, on the 110th day of 2022, of when Alexa hit two homeruns in a softball game and Sarah got them both on video and Collingswood won 13-7.  Well, it was not a lot, but it got me through today with a smile on my face.  So I have thanks for my two for 2022 for tonight, Facebook and Memories.  Days like today are what keep me on the platform (well that and my need for this nightly reflection!)  Good Night all and may your memories be happy!

UD and Family Weekend

Image
What a day the 274th day of 2022 has been.  Started off, where Anna was LAST year at the PTA Mum Sale for Collingswood High School.  A cold and wet sale that, although it did not sell as many we had hope we would, but the teamwork, camaraderie, and good humor amongst the myriad of volunteers made the time go fast (except for 7-9AM :-) ).  THEN, it was on to where Anna is now, and the Two for 2022 for 10/1/2022: UD and Family Weekend!  The Delaware Football Team won and is 5-0.  We got to see Kassidy and the Presses, I finally got to see Anna's dorm room (it looks really nice!), meet Anna's roommates, and check out the campus when students are actually present.  And we capped off the evening with some shopping, and dinner, at the Christiana Mall.  Anna seems to be really enjoying her time at UD and I am proud of her for her hard work and pursual of a career in K-6 education.  It was also really neat to see Family Weekend from another side, at a dif...
