July 6

It was a demoralizing loss for the Rockies today. It was the third game of four with the Atlanta Braves. At least we were close on the last two games, but today’s game was just an embarrassment. The score was 9-1. The Braves have taken the series and we still have tomorrow to go. Hopefully we’ll take that one and they won’t sweep us. Atlanta comes to Denver for a rematch, and hopefully everyone will be healthy and we’ll put up a better showing.
My granddaughter came over today. We had a lot of fun. As we were going home, she told me that she wants me to be her sister. I think it’s time for the kids to give her a sibling.
My wife got a card for my daughter. We had all of the kids sign it. I’m sure she’ll like it. Her boyfriend drew her a picture so we had to get a bigger envelope to put it in so that it wouldn’t get bent. She still hasn’t sent us a letter since that first one. But, I bet she is pretty busy. This is her third week of actual training. So, we should be able to get a phone call from her this weekend. It’s hard to believe that she has been gone for a month. It is going very quickly. I hope it is going as quickly for her as it is for us. I can’t wait until we go out there in August.
I don’t know what happened today, but I slept in until after five o’clock. I usually get up at three. I think I got too much sleep, because I was yawning all afternoon. Then, it was time to go to work before I knew it. Well, I’m wide awake now. Hopefully I’ll get some work done today.
I think I’m going to put the radio on today. I don’t feel like going through all of the songs right now. So, I better get started.
