I'll watch some 13U baseball in the morning then the CWS in the afternoon and evening. Not sure what will be on the grill yet, but another ribeye is always great. Wife imported some more Yuengling to Nebraska so I got that going for me...

Alright, you get the booby prize for worst weekend. Good luck!
Boy, I can relate to that. Hope you have some good drugs for that.
Fortunately that our daughters family is here in the same neighborhood, so I’m sure will have a kid/grandkids visit.
Sometimes less exciting is perfect.
There’s a guy doing it up!
No idea, still in the FL keys till Tomorrow eve. My father passed away this past January after 91 years so be weird not making that phone call. After eating out 3X/day for the last week, I really just want to sit in the pool and drink (as if I have not done enough down here). Maybe grill
I'm married with no kids, so I'll be going to hang out with my little bro and his family along with my nephews and their families, and my parents.
I always make ribs and T.T. for my Dad, not sure what else I'll be smoking.
T.T. is on sale for $4.00 a pound, so I'll load up on them for grinding and grilling.
I missed the big sale a few weeks ago $3.49 P.P. for untrimmed T.T. They had some whoppers too, that had to be 4-6 lbs.

Just got word today I'm NOT working Sunday now. I'm used to working for the boss (my cousin) so he can hang out with his daughter. She is of age now where she's too good for somethings (aka teenager) so he's giving me the day off. No clue what I'll do.
When are they going to make bonus parents day? I mean bonus parents do just as much as "mom or dad". Sounds like a good idea to me. Then again i an a few beers in.
So Change of plans for me... I will dog off working on my boat. I will wait for a friend that has access to a MIG welder. Instead, will be cooking crab and redfish cakes at my buddies house Sunday. Looking forward to it!

Really interesting reading all.
Wife and I will be taking my dad out for a father's day dinner tomorrow (Saturday) so he can be freed up for church Sunday. Wife's dad is long dead. We only assumed dad would be going to church. He and mom have gone both day and night on Sundays, evenings on Wednesdays and evenings Thursdays for bible study for many years.
Problem is mom died 30 days ago. 4 weeks to the day, tomorrow, will be when we had the hospital remove life support. We consider her death two days prior. Massive stroke and brain aneurysm. Yea, it sucks, but is exactly what she said she wanted...here today, with the Lord tomorrow and no long drawn out drama. That was her gift. Dad is a mess though...it wasn't supposed to happen that way. I have some inherent ability to stay strong in a crisis, so I'm doing much better than him.
He just got back from Florida yesterday after settling things with her body, legal stuff, etc.. Wife and I were down in Florida helping for a week after mom died. They lived in a log cabin on a piece of my property next door the 6 months of the year they weren't snow-birding to N Ft Meyers to their condo.
Dad came back to that lonely cabin a little after noon yesterday. We had him over for a grilled pork loin last night. Tomorrow we'll eat out somewhere of his choice and there will be a glass of wine or a cocktail at the table where mom would have been that the three of us will all take a drink from in her honor. That empty 4th chair really ticks me off, but it's killing dad.
For me, I'll be breaking down, splitting and hauling firewood from my neighbor's property to mine on Sunday. I dont do holidays usually (except I HAVE to do Christmas and Thanksgiving), especially fathers day and my birthday. I dont believe in celebrating myself. But I WILL drink...as usual...and hopefully watch the end of the U.S. Open before eating leftovers (good leftovers though!). Probably get a call from one of two of my kids. In my case I am the bio-dad, left behind years ago. But, even after this long sad screed, my life is still blessed, believe it or not
How'd that procedure go? Looking forward to the Open myself, but will only be able to watch the last of the final round.

A tough month, sounds like doing the best you can. And I always remind myself there are billions of people that would trade places with us in a heartbeat.Really interesting reading all.
