Another busy day at Sea... plus Softball



(broken off running lights pictured.)  I got one back on before running to play.
 Joe age 89 and Evelyn age 78 are an 'item' plus pretty darn good players.  

softball


During warm ups i took a bouncing grounder on the end of my second finger and got pretty bloody. Then in my best Fred Astaire moves i slipped, fell, spun getting up, dropped the ball and fell again in the second inning of the seven inning game.  I jammed my knuckle on the same finger, left hand.  My game didnt really suffer too much.  My throwing - left handed - took a huge nosedive and now post game my hand is swelling up a little and hurting a lot.  Maybe i should 'ease' into senior league softball?  Or i could stop falling down?  Darn the luck!  (do you recall Johnny Depp playing softball in any of the Pirates movies?  maybe Pirates dont play softball?  maybe i shouldn't?)

i have an ice-pack on my hand now and have decided that the only other thing i might need is a happy hour at the Hurricane and some of those 35 cent wings.  That will surely make the hand hurt less!  I hope you are enjoying a sunny 72 degree day and have some wings on order.    xo skip
