Worry

Grandson Mitchell is working after school at Menards in Madison.  The sales at Menards are sure to soar.

Grasshopper No.2 has been playing her trombone with a UW Band Alumni group at Sports Bars during the Badger basketball “run” in the NCAA tournament.  She played again last night.  It was big screen TV’s, chicken wings, band renditions of the “Bud” song and lots of cheering as the Badgers won again. If my memory serves me well, adult beverages are served at the sports bar.  It sounds like she was in a good place.

My number one worry occurred last night.  Your Mom and I were scheduled to see the play “Annie” at the PAC.  The UW Badger NCAA tournament game was scheduled at the same time as Annie.  What do I do?  Annie or Badgers?  What would you do?

Next I worry about getting my snow tires off.  In Wisconsin it can snow in June.  Should I wait?  What do I do?  What would your do?

Now I have to worry about the end of mandkind.  I learned that some scientists (esteemed scientists) determined that our universe containing our blue planet Earth, is billions of years old and still expanding.  The prediction is that someday the universe will stop expanding and will begin to contract.  Ten billion years from now the Earth could be destroyed.  Really!  Now I have to worry about ten billion years from now.  Scarlett in “Gone With the Wind” always deferred by saying “I’ll worry about that tomorrow”.  Yep, thats me.  I’ll worry about mankind tomorrow.

Yesterday I picked all four NCAA basketball games correctly.  No worry there!

Love,

Dad
