Amazing weekend

I went over to my niece's dance recital to discover the dance teacher changed the time of the recital and missed the first dance on the program. My nieces were difficult to spot with their hairpieces changing their appearance. One dance had a girl's hair fall out when she did a cartwheel. Another dance had girls do back flips over each other and two girl's hair got stuck and they had to complete the song connected. My oldest niece was invited to a pizza party with her boyfriend and friends and came home at 3 AM.

Saturday held my second niece's softball tournament. She is the pitcher and a switch hitter. Her team lost, but they would play again several more times before the tournament is over. I gave her a hug good-bye and told her she did a good job after the game. Their next game was in a few hours so they took their equipment to my brother-in-law's truck (he's the coach). On the way, a girl carrying the stick holding the helmets dragged an end through a puddle and then lost a strap. She said it was not her fault. My brother-in-law told her not to be George Bush avoiding responsibility. She stuck her tongue out making a face.

I gave my Dad his Father's Day present, Season 1 of the TV show Alf. I showed off my new cat album and my 3rd niece wished I brought her with me. A 3 hour car trip is too much to demand from a cat. Besides, my sister doesn't want a cat in her house.

I heard very good news about my Dad's cancer condition. He is in remission and for the moment, cancer free. The radiation makes him feel like there is a burn inside his body and still is very tired, but no longer on death's doorstep. I found out when my sister asked about his cancer. I later asked when Mom had planned on telling us this news. She thought she told everybody. Obviously not.

I came home to read the note from my friend that my cat didn't eat much in my absence, but there was vomit in 2 places so she had eaten something. My poor kitty distressed. I took her outside after putting everything away. I heard one neighbor fighting and a pair of shoes fell from a balcony. I think her kid did that. Another neighbor told me that she sees my cat's head peeking through the balcony railing when they go in and out. Yeah, I said, she likes to do that. Tonight she mewed like crazy and ran to the door when I heard a lady saying goodbye to her girls outside.

I cleaned the litterbox and put in new litter. It is a dirty job, but must be done once a month. Now I am ready for bed. I had a full day. Post later Bye!
