Roscoe's Quick Notes

Still slowly recovering from yesterday's little bit of yard work. Arthritis aches and pains, sinus aggravation, mental fatigue, yadda, yadda, ... Sometimes being old really sux.

Question of the moment: which baseball game shall I follow this afternoon. I have two favorite baseball teams: IU Hoosiers playing at the collegiate level, and the Texas Rangers MLB team. This afternoon both my teams are playing at the same time, opening pitches scheduled for 2:00 PM. That's 2 hours from now, so I've got a little time to choose. Decisions, decisions...

A quiet Tuesday winds down. A few basic financial moves this morning, and the few basic household chores throughout the day, placing an online grocery delivery order, keeping up with my daily prayer regimen and its pre-Lent changes, working on all my pending CC games, a bit of reading, and that's about it. Not a big day with any special elements, but a good day in which I quietly took I took care of basic business. Nice.

Tuned into today's Indiana University Baseball Game vs Harvard while the wife gets herself ready for me to take her out to lunch at a favorite restaurant. Go Hoosiers!

This Saturday has flown by! My goodness! Followed a lot of baseball games, both college and MLB, on TV and via the radio, and before I knew it the wife had gone to bed early and I've decided to do the same. May read for a little while before putting head to pillow, but I'm getting pretty drowsy, so it won't be long...

Not a bad Friday, all things considered. This morning was productive, finally did a good sort and organize of paperwork and correspondence back in the home office. Then had good sports to follow through the afternoon: MLB Cactus League Spring Training Game early followed by a college baseball game late afternoon into early evening. Now tonight I've got a good college basketball playing over the radio.

Really cold (for us) weather keeps me indoors as much as possible today. Sports entertainment available to me includes a Cactus League MLB Spring Training Game in the early afternoon (Cubs vs Dodgers) and a college women's basketball game this evening (Ohio St. vs IU Hoosiers).

Another quiet day winds down. As we move through the pre-Lent Septuagesimatide Season I've added Light of the World: Daily Meditations on the Traditional Mass by Dom Benedict Baur to my daily prayer regimen. The meditations and prayers in this book are really quite good.

I started the day with 2 major chores ahead of me and had both of them completed by early afternoon. The rest of the day has been spent following news reports, keeping to my prayer regimen, working on my chess games, listening to relaxing music, and quietly reading. A peaceful day. Nice.
