what a roller coaster ride!!!


Griffey Returns to Seattle! When Mike called to tell us that Griffey was returning to play for what may be his last year with the with the mariners, we were so excited! We know....they don't have hopes of having a great team again this year but having him "in the house" would be so much fun....the fans would just be so happy-it would be a thrill. Saturday, when checking on things, I was sad to read that the Braves had stepped in and Griffey may want to be a Brave instead!!! For the next five days...nothing got done around here. As long as he couldn't commit, I couldn't commit to the dishes, the laundry or anything else. Wednesday afternoon I found this little bleep on this strange site from this blog comment that said he had choosen the Mariners. Shortly after, Braves website hinted they may not really have him as committed as they had been reporting. Mike and I had been doing a little texting back and forth and then he called telling me he had decieded, and it was true....Griffey is really going to be a Mariner one last time! Apparently he was influenced by his daughter and a phone call he got from Willey Mays this morning. Now I can get back to my dishes, and laundry and oh, that's right...I didn't want to do that stuff anyway.

I'm glad you keep us updated on our Mariners news. :) That's exciting, it made me secretly happy that he really stunk after he left the Mariners in the first place. :) We better go to a game!

Ok, done deal, you ARE coming to a game this summer right???? We can have griffy-dogs. If you don't know what those are, ask Mike.
