Is This Really Happening Already? Who's Kidding Who? It's Been The Story of My Life...

I forgot my son's first T-ball practice.

Seems simple enough, I know. But all week long I had been remembering. All day long I had been rehearsing to friends the detail of the time of the practice and how excited he was about this new adventure.

Just a couple of hours before the designated time of arrival I told Mike Tomford about the scheduled event. So when Judy (his wife) called him to say that she and I had overstayed our coffee-talk causing me to miss bringing Merrick to practice, he incredulously asked how I could have forgotten. After all, I had just told him -- with enthusiasm, no less -- all about it. How could I so quickly forget?

That's what we all keep wondering these days.

*sigh*

Poor Rick. That poor, poor man...

  1. you are not the only one forgetting things.
    My rationalization is this: but I have so many more things to remember these days....

    We'll just have to bring along an egg timer next time. And then we have to remind each other to set it!

    Also, thanks for the pesto roll and tea!

    Judes :-)
