Two Year Wait

 


There have been a lot of things postponed because of Covid-19.  This post is the first nightly reflection in over a week, but I cannot blame the pandemic for my delays.  5/7/2022 started off amazingly at the Bridal Shower of my niece, Ashley.  While I was not invited to the shower, but I was asked to bartend, and it was fun.  But, later on the 127th day of 2022, we attended the wedding of Zach and Nicole.  It inspired my Two for 2022: Two Year Wait.  Originally planned for 5/2/2020, held in a much smaller form 52 weeks later on 5/1/2021, finally, 53 weeks later than the original delay, Zach and Nicole finally had their wedding reception.  I am so happy for them and it made me think of so many other things that are finally happening again after two years.  Commencement for the Class of 2020 is happening in two weeks, after another two year delay!  Work has been rough (the REAL reason for my lack of posting), and Snack Stand has kept me busy as well, but tonight we relaxed and enjoyed the event that could finally happen after the two year delay!

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...
