After a horribly cold Saturday, we had a hot and rainy Sunday, Monday started rainy and cold and we're expecting a Summer-like Easter with temperatures rising up to 30ºC (86F).:meh:

With the weather this crazy we need to have our summer body ready the entire year, we never know when Summer will come :laugh:

I’m lucky, my Summer body is the same as all my other bodies!
 
This is the longest that my DH has watched MLB, either Spring training or regular season, in YEARS!
There's been no cursing or calling to cancel his streaming subscription ... "Wow, so-and-so team has a really good team this year, we should go to a game this year."
We haven't gone to a game in I can't remember how long, and that's one of the reasons we moved to Arizona :facepalm:

I haven't been to a game in years either. I hate watching baseball on TV, but love going to games. It's the total experience. The game, being outside, the beer, the ballpark food... it's a total package.

That's it for me too.
DH is such a died in the wool MLB nut (he played-left handed pitcher), but he's been so disgusted with the game.
We had great season seats at "The Bob" as it use to called.
We also went to all of the UoA home games, such much fun!
As we've traveled the USA by car, we've been to many. many other parks as well.
My all time fave was the park in Denver, Coors Field, gee, can't imagine why :laugh: Some of the best Beer I've ever had there, ones you can't get anywhere else.
 
Made myself a coffee for lunch but had to make it in my 'travel mug' because I had to leave the house for a rearranged doctors appointment (dr is off sick)...

So made it at 12:15pm. It's now almost 2pm, I thought I'd just gulp it down lukewarm... nope, just burnt my tongue on it! That's a good thermal mug. Didn't even pre-warm it.
 
It would appear that my Dyson air purifier in the bedroom is trying to tell me something.

All 4 things (PM10, PM2.5, VOC and NO2) have all been up and down all day...

83591
83590

83592

The only reason that the darn thing has gone quite is it's now switched into nighttime mode!

Much to everyone's amusement, I was still trying to drink that coffee 3 hours after it was made! (I had a doctors appointment, followed by blood tests and my flu jab)

We (used to) go a couple of times a year - work would provide us all tickets to a day game and a day off, as a sort of team-building exercise.

I used to get in trouble, because halfway through the first inning, I’d get up to “go to the bathroom,” then I’d be gone until the bottom of the 9th, wandering all around the park, drinking this and eating that.

My favorite thing to get was from the Food Network booth - a giant hot dog, mustard, baked beans, cheese, and Fritos on top.

I’ve done that so many times, I’ve taken to bringing two cups - a crappy ceramic one for drinking now, and the super-insulated metal one for drinking (much, much) later.

My ex-wife sold medical equipment and supplies, so the big-pharma companies would buy great seats to Rangers games for her company employees and spouses, in the waiter service seats along third base line. Everything paid for! I do miss that.

That's the type of seats we bought back when, loved them.
If they opened the roof up at "The Bob" and I got too hot, I'd just go into the lounge area (public) and find a comfy spot or like TastyReuben ,walk around, see what was to eat and then come back for the 9th inning with DH.
I'd love to do this again!
