Touching You, Touching Me.

Happy Sunday. Didn't win any money on the Kentucky Derby yesterday. Bet on the wrong horse. Today there is no betting on the agenda just lunch at Mom's and then getting dinner ready for her and the caregiver.

Passing on the updates this week. Of course you are always welcome to post your own update on the blog today or any day of the week for that matter.

Let's start today off with a really touching article:

Too bad both our choices lost the Derby. But good that we didn't have actual MONEY riding with them. At least I didn't.

Hope your day with Mom is a pleasant one.

Wonderful of that soldier's friends and volunteers to restore the truck and deliver it to his widow. The guy that stole the money and left the truck in pieces should be shot.

Very nice story about tossing a baseball around. I hope they can do it many more times. I find the original request a little puzzling, though. He needed Twitter to ask for somebody to throw a ball with him? How odd.

Great story about the kid correcting the museum! He'll go far.

Hi Pat

I did bet real money on the race, thirty smackers.

The day at Mom's was great and sister is back from their trip so I get today and tomorrow off. Sister has just been a dream since she got back.

I agree the guy that stole the money doesn't deserve to live.

The guy was a major league baseball player and the quickest access to him was Twitter.

The teen at the museum was sure smarter than I would ever be!
