Same thing different day

Once again Jack and i found ourselves picking up Catherine at her pre-school and wondering what to do. Once again, the three of us found our way to the Coffee shop, then to Black Gordon and then to the Train that doesnt move. Even though it was cold and raining they knew where they wanted to go. It is absolutely my favorite day when we go to all these places. We just missed getting a ride on the trolley. I'm thinking maybe the trolley coductor saw us and speeded up his stop.
While making our pitstop at the coffee shop, Jack's girlfriend Patricia was not there but Eddie was. I ran into an old friend from the neighborhood Colleen. She is Eileen's age and we used to go play tennis together. I remember how good she was at it. It was fun to play against her because the games were very competitive.
It was raining and cold so I really didnt think the kids would want to play on Black Gordon but once again, I was wrong. On top of the train we went in the cold and rain. Jack would yell choo choo and Catherine would rattle the chains. We sat and just hung out, me in the wet stairs and them on either lap. Then off we went on the train that doesnt move. That trolley is obviously stationary and if made for kids to play on. Inside there is a bell that requires that you take a coin and bang it again it to make trolley sounds. The slide on the trolley was soaking wet so I had to keep an eye on Jack so he wouldnt freak from having his pants wet.
At night Lyn took them over nana's house for some much needed Friday night Pizza. The Ump showed up and even took Jimmy to his Friday night pitching clinic. Jimmy was very frustrated because he didnt feel like he was throwing strikes. He's convinced he stinks. I had to go over the whole Spring training thing about how you're not supposed to be "on" right after the winter. He's such a competitor. Tomorrow morning, in the cold and rain we are going to have to be on the front lawn practicing. Good thing I'm so healthy and agile...yeah right !!!!
