I was trying to get someone for my softball team for a
tournament in Niagara Falls.
I was trying to get one of the players from one of my other teams. I found his number from one of the other guys
on the team and was putting it in my contacts in my phone and accidently phoned
him. It was 3 am. I hung up quickly before I disturbed
him. When I texted him the next day, he
said he was available and interested in playing. Then later that week, I found out that we
weren't in the tournament because we were the 13th team that showed interest
and the organizers decided to limit the tournament to 12 teams. I had to text him back and tell him we were
not in the tournament. I went to the
tournament to watch anyway and saw lots of friends there.
For many years, I kept a family diary devoted to good news and funny stories about my family while the girls were growing up. I stopped a few years ago. I am thinking of starting it up again because I have noticed that a lot of good and funny things are happening to my wife and I.

Barb Needs Glasses
Barb was confused because she tried to put her coffee in the
microwave to warm it up without getting her glasses. She wanted to heat her cup for 2 minutes 22
seconds. She pressed the numbers
correctly but she pressed delay instead of start. Then she hit 2 minutes and 22 seconds again
and pressed start. The microwave ran for
4 minutes and 44 seconds. The coffee
boiled over and burned on to the microwave.
Family of Geese
Both Barb and I saw the family of geese at the pond at the
entrance to the community that is there every year. There was a mother, father and 4 babies. A few weeks later, they were gone. Definitely something had happened to them but
we never found out what.
Cell Phone
When I got to the ball game, I realized I didn't have my
cell phone. While I was at the game,
Barb found my cell phone down the side of the chair in the television room
where I was waiting. It had fallen out
of my pocket too.
Car Keys
I was early for my fastball game. So even though I was all dressed in my
uniform and ball jacket I decided to sit for a while in the television room with
Barb waiting until I had to leave. Then
when it was time to leave, I got in the car but couldn't find my keys. I came back in and Barb and I looked all over
the house. Barb told me again that I
should leave them on the bench at the door.
I said I thought I did. Finally,
Barb found my keys on the chair in the television room where I was waiting they
must have fallen out of my pocket when I was sitting waiting.
New Computer Glasses
Barb fell asleep in her chair while watching
television. When she woke up she
couldn't find her computer glasses. She
searched and searched. Later she finally
found them hooked on the blinds behind her chair. They must have been on her head when she
leaned back in her chair and got all mixed up in the blinds and were just
hanging there.
Poutine
Barb couldn't wait to get back to Canada and go to Costco to get her
favourite poutine at the snack bar. She
can't get poutine in Florida. No one even knows what poutine is there.
