FOTY

I was working on my emails over the weekend.  Yeah, anymore I do not have enough time to get to my emails daily!  Usually it is just junk mail from places I have done business with.  For instance, I a flew Alaska Airlines to Colorado Springs - so I am getting emails daily now from AA and all of their business partners!  Well, at least until I have to respond CANCEL to their garbage ....

Amongst all of the offerings I could not care less about - was one by a real name.  I looked at the real name - it meant nothing.  It was a forward from him.  Based on the titling I assumed that he was winning a reward .....  Still no idea whom this was about though .....

Rolling back the time clock -

It was a softball game for my church about 30 years ago.  I was not playing ( stupid here had separated his hips throwing 90 pound cement sacks up 19 feet onto a scaffold ... ) so, seated in the stands, tightly squeezed into a plastic shell holding my hip together, and watching the warm up.  On the field was a 12 year old I had never seen before and it seemed no one else had either.  The pastor came over and asked me to go ask him what was up.  And because I know things, I knew this was not what I needed to do.  Whom ever approached him was going to have him attached for life .....

Yup.

No complaints from me, he has been a blessing to my life and I hope I have been of value in his, across the years since.

Content-wise, the email talked about the acceptance of his nomination of me as a candidate for father of the year!

What the heck!!!!!!!!!!!!

Doubt anything will come of it though ...
