a very long

12 innings.

I am not on West Coast time. In fact, after all those time changes both coming and going – or was that going and coming? – followed by a flight from NYC, my body says that it is time to get up early. Which means about 0330 or so on West Coast time.

I had been glad that tonight’s baseball game was starting at 1835 rather than 1905 figuring that the extra 30 minutes would mean getting home at a reasonable time of day.

Not so.

At the end of 9 innings – the score was tied 0-0.

As it was after 10 innings, 11 innings. At which point I looked at George and said – 12 innings is my limit.

Final Score 2:0 thats to Khris Davis pulling out a home run with one on base….

I am still tracking down whatever mail came in while I was gone. The suitcase is unpacked and the last of the laundry is in the basket. My pillow is calling me.

About Holly

fiber person - knitter, spinner, weaver who spent 33 years being a military officer to fund the above. And home. And family. Sewing and quilting projects are also in the stash. After living again in Heidelberg after retiring (finally) from the U.S. Army May 2011, we moved to the US ~ Dec 2015. Something about being over 65 and access to health care. It also might have had to do with finding a buyer for our house. Allegedly this will provide me a home base in the same country as our four adult children, all of whom I adore, so that I can drive them totally insane. Considerations of time to knit down the stash…(right, and if you believe that…) and spin and .... There is now actually enough time to do a bit of consulting, editing. Even more amazing - we have only one household again. As long as everyone understands that I still, 40 years into our marriage, don't do kitchens or bathrooms. For that matter, not being a golden retriever, I don't do slippers or newspapers either. I don’t miss either the military or full-time clinical practice. Limiting my public health/travel med/consulting and lecturing to “when I feel like it” has let me happily spend my pension cruising, stash enhancing (oops), arguing with the DH about where we are going to travel next and book buying. Life is good!
