Today is my last day at my job with the Pittsburgh Pirates! I am really sad to leave so many great coworkers and friends I have made. My manager is “surprising” me by having me throw out the first pitch! Oh my, I hope it reaches home plate!
Great memories have been made over the past two years here! One of the best jobs I’ve had.

You’ll have to practice and I am on your side to get that ball in the right direction and far enough.

Well I didn’t get it all the way to the plate, it hit the ground and bounced into my managers mitt. It was nerve-wracking!, but fun

But I bet the wind-up was impressive ⚾️
Did you get a big cheer from the players and crowd?
Was there a video to share?
A fabulous experience nevertheless

To be honest, I have it on video but I’m trying not to put it on my blog that I am moving. I have certain individuals that don’t need to know. It was really nice though, they announced me and said nice things as a goodbye.

Well, firstly, the season is just about over, but we are moving! I just didn’t want to broadcast on my blog that I am moving. Some individuals in my life, or not in my life, don’t need to know where I’m going or that I am moving. I learned my lesson about posting too much a few times. NOT with my blogging friends, just people who randomly catch a post here and there.

At least you are going out on a good note, Christine as the Pirates should have no problem beating the Colorado Rockies.
