Monday, May 22

5:43 a.m. - Yesterday afternoon we went to the RHS graduation ceremony, and all the speakers did a great job.  After that I went to Taylor's graduation party in Geneseo.  I don't see that side of the Bizarri family very much, so it was nice to sit down with them and chit-chat and catch-up on how all of them are doing.  Just before I left, Taylor and her friend were being silly and singing some karioke, and they both had beautiful voices.  Amber didn't go because she wasn't feeling well.  

After that Shawn Strachan was awesome.  After he and I got home, he called to take a look at that mower deck.  He said he could fix it, and we loaded up the deck in the truck and made our way over to his shop where he did just that.  He saved me hundreds of dollars, perhaps thousands if I would have had to buy a new lawn tractor.  He then finished up his waxing job on his trailer - Big Red.  He did a lot of work on that trailer, and it looks nice.  I hope he gets to get out with it soon.  

Today...get through the school day, get some work done, and get home and put the tractor together, I hope.  I would like to sharpen the blades to the mower before I put it all together, so maybe I'll do that first....I can pay mom and dad a visit too.  

The weather is supposed to be warmer this week, but the temps on this morning's forecast didn't look as hot as what was earlier predicted last week.  I just want to get through this damn 4A softball regional as painlessly as possible.  Actually, I want to get through the whole week as painlessly as possible.
