Our softball team won one of two games today. I felt pretty good hitting. Plus, I had a good day at second base.., One and one baby!
Saturday is the big Linus Blankets My Backyard Party 2007! It should be a lot of fun. Hopefully, no rain! Please, no rain. I have a goal of collecting 100 blankets on Saturday. Hopefully, we achieve that goal!
I visited my father yesterday. Some people never change. I’m glad that I’m not one of them. :)
I also stopped by my mom’s grave sight yesterday. It’s funny…I always talk about looking for inspiration…Man, I’m dumb. My mom should be all the inspiration that I need. All of my best qualities came from her. She was kind, funny, charming. Her smile would light up a room. I am not saying I am anywhere near as good of a person as her, but if keep perspective, I might be close. She is a great role model. If you’re somehow reading this mom, I love you. Thanks for your inspiration. Most of the good that I’ve done in life is a direct result of you. I will continue to try and make you proud…
As you may or may not know, I am throwing the second ever Linus Blankets My Backyard Party this month. Guests to this party bring blankets that are donated to children who are sick, traumatized, or just need a little sense of security. I just spent almost an hour on the phone with Martha, a lady who distributes these blankets. The stories of how these blankets impact lives are amazing. She also told me about how they have begun to sew dolls that the kids use to explain how they feel before and after surgeries. Martha’s stories have inspired me so much that I have offerred to donate more of my time and money to this wonderful cause. Anyway, I was inspired today and maybe by writing this, I’ve inspired someone else.
I am sad. I just which I could figure out things. They say what doesn’t kill you can only make you stronger. Damn, I should be strong by now!
I dont know where Im going
But, I sure know where Ive been
Hanging on the promises
In songs of yesterday
An Ive made up my mind,
I aint wasting no more time
But, here I go again
Here I go again
Tho I keep searching for an answer,
I never seem to find what Im looking for
Oh lord, I pray
You give me strength to carry on,
cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
An here I go again on my own
Goin down the only road Ive ever known,
Like a hobo* I was born to walk alone
An Ive made up my mind
I aint wasting no more time
Im just another heart in need of rescue,
Waiting on loves sweet charity
An Im gonna hold on
For the rest of my days,
cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
An here I go again on my own
Goin down the only road Ive ever known,
Like a hobo* I was born to walk alone
An Ive made up my mind
I aint wasting no more time
But, here I go again,
Here I go again,
Here I go again,
