We were back to our busy schedule after Scott's Confirmation. Thanks again to Mark and Linda for traveling here from Indy for his big event.

Hot Air Balloon Festival/Preakness
 Salute to Wounded Warriors(too much wind)
 Water Country USA with Allison and Scott

Scott and I spent the Preakness weekend helping with the Hot Air Balloon festival at our local country club. The Preakness was the second horse race following the Kentucky Derby held here in Baltimore. For the past few years, Scott and I have volunteered to assist with managing the balloons out on the golf course for the festival. We help unroll the balloons and then hold onto them while they are being blown up. Some take off and some stay behind to light up at night. We helped out on Thursday and Friday night before the race. Thursday I dropped SCott off as the balloons were taking off in the evening so I could go pick up my parents. I was able to get mom to the event, just in time to watch the balloons glow. On Friday night it was too windy to put up any balloons. Instead, Scott's boy scout troop participated in a salute to the Wounded Warriors with a flag ceremony. They were supposed to have balloon rides for the soldiers, but they had to wait until Saturday morning. So we got off easy this year.

On the day of the race, Tom and I headed off to Salisbury to help Allison start packing up her dorm room. We took her out to dinner and then headed back so she could get back to studying for finals. We enjoyed listening to the stormy horse race at Pimlico on the radio on the drive back. Looks like the Kentucky Derby winner, American Pharaoh won and will go on to the Belmont stakes in New York to attempt a Triple Crown.

  Last Sunday, Tom and I spent the afternoon at my parents apt. Tom set up a small desk to put a tv on for Dad's apt. Comcast had hooked it up during the week. We also picked up a small cubicle dresser for mom and I helped her reorganize her undergarments in small bins as well as rehang clothes in the extra closet since she has some extra space. Afterwards we took my mom out to dinner. We had to run out though and pick up Scott who was at Orientation for his new job.

Finally, I was able to contact the manager at the Sports Club to get Scott on the schedule. I think they forgot about him. Everything is computerized now and he was not put into the system. So they went and put Scott on the work schedule before he attended orientation. Then they scheduled him for night shifts, but he is not old enough. So after some rearranging, he is back on track. But he won't actually be going in to work for a couple of weeks. The roller rink slows down during the summer, so this is a good time to get started with a new job.

Last week, Allison finished her finals and packed up the last of her stuff and headed home for the summer. Unfortunately, she spent her last few days at school sick with some type of respiratory illness with a fever. It made it difficult to study, take tests or pack up the rest of her dorm room. But she managed to do well and make it home. Now she is busy getting ready to go off to work for the summer as a counselor at Girl SCout camp.

Tom was also off for a quick work week in LA. Sorry he did not have time to stop in and visit Mike B. He has been so busy and has several more trips scheduled in the next few weeks.

We did steal him and the rest of the family over Memorial Day Weekend though for a quick trip down to Busch GArdens in Williamsburg. On Friday night, Tom and Scott first headed over to our local National Veterans Cemetery to place flags at each of the soldiers gravestones with the Boy Scout troop. They have been doing this event for many years now. We left very early on Saturday to arrive when Busch Gardens opened(and to try and beat the traffic). Cookie stayed back at our friends house so we dropped her off on Friday night. I also spent Friday visiting with my parents and working on some business matters with my mom plus running errands. On Saturday we spent the day at the amusement park. We enjoyed eating our way through the park as they opened up their Food and Wine Festival. EAch section of the park has small booths set up with food items from around the world. We even picked up a small painting from a local artist for Allison to add to her beach collection for Salisbury U. We had fun talking to the artist while they hunted down Allison's painting that got lost on its way to package pick up. Turns out the artist, Carol Lee, sold paintings to Jack Hanna, spokesperson for Busch Gardens  and she was starting a line of tshirts with her prints. We were one of the first to see her new shirts. I told her to ask Busch Gardens to sell her paintings in Tampa. She said they were sending a rep. to look at them on Sunday and that she had never been there before. I think she should hire us as her sales rep! Since we hit all the rides and food booths early, we headed out to catch the Tomorrowland movie. The kids did not want to see it, but were pleasantly surprised. We figured it had to be good with George Clooney in it. On Sunday we hit the water park(early). The kids and I enjoyed all the big water rides in the morning, although it was a bit chilly. After lunch and another quick swim, we were headed back home-just when the water park was filling up.

I needed to get back home since I worked on Memorial Day. Tom and the kids stayed home and cleaned and cooked so we could have our neighbors over for dinner that night. We were catching up with all the goings ons.  School is coming to an end, although our county had to extend until the 19th of June to make up our snow and ice days. Scott is wrapping up the end of his Freshman year. He has signed up to volunteer to run a Robotics Summer camp with his High SChool Robotics team. He actually laid out the entire camp for his group since he has participated in several Lego classes himself. He also enjoyed an end of the year party with his High School video club and was inducted in as the new President of the club starting next year! And we finally hooked up with a Boy Scout merit badge counselor so he can finish his Personal Fitness badge(we had trouble connecting with the last counselor). It takes 3 months to complete the requirements, so this has been agony!

In other school news,  our neighbor's daughter graduated from Towson University in Psychology. She is headed to grad school.

Congratulations goes out to our niece, Sarah Bozyk who graduated from LSU with a degree in Environmental Engineering. Way to go Sarah!

And Happy Birthday to Stacey Seitz who celebrated on the 17th of May!  Congrats also on her big running event that she participated in to raise money for her hospital in Indy.

Hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day! We had a very busy weekend in Maryland.

Last Saturday, Scott finally completed his Confirmation! We were very happy to have Tom's brother Mark and his wife, Linda travel from Indiana to participate in the ceremony. Mark was Scott's sponsor-a wonderful choice as he is also Scott's Godfather. They arrived on Friday afternoon-and on Mark's birthday! Naturally, we all went out to dinner. I say all-Allison drove home from school on Friday afternoon also. When she got home we went to celebrate Mark's Bday at a local Mexican restaurant. Complete with a birthday sombrero! Afterwards, Mark and Scott had Confirmation rehearsal. It gave me a chance to go out and get a haircut. I tried to run out in the morning, but I was busy meeting with the broker to discuss my parent's business, along with ours. Looks like we could all use some financial help. And weekends have been busy around here with all he proms and soon graduations.

Saturday morning we were all up early for the ceremony. Gma and Gpa Bozyk decided to sit this one out(too early). Mark and Scott had to line up at church around 915 and we arrived shortly after. The service was quite nice with 40 kids in attendance being confirmed. We finished around noon and came home for lunch. Since we had out of town guests, we decided to do some sight seeing. We decided to avoid the outside activities for those with bad allergies and headed  to one of the Smithsonian Air and Space museums near the Dulles airport. We were shocked to see the museum parking was closed due to full capacity. Which probably meant the museum was filled to capacity! Rather than fight the crowds, we decided to stop into Tyson's Corner mall and catch the new Avengers movie which was a lot of fun. In the evening, we all went out to dinner at Maggiones Italian restaurant to celebrate Scott's big day.

Mark and Linda were up early on Mother's Day and headed out on the road back to Indy. Our family enjoyed a Mother's Day brunch with my parents at their place and afterwards took a short walk over to a local custard/ice cream shop for a special treat. Afterwards, Allison headed back to school while I spent time visiting with my parents on Dad's new floor. On Thursday, I had joined my parents for an early Mother's Day dinner on Dad's floor. So double the partying for me and my parents! I also had a shorter work week as I attended a dementia class on Thursday.

We continue to run around with lots of other activities on the back burner. Scott was busy preparing for his upcoming Balloon festival at Boy Scouts-they actually bring a hot air balloon to an empty lot near our house for everyone to practice rolling in and out of the bag and then inflating and deflating. We are looking forward to the upcoming Balloon festival for the Preakness horse race. Scott and I have volunteered as part of the chase team for the past several years.

So again, Thanks so much to Mark and Linda for taking the time out of their busy family schedule and traveling to Maryland to be a huge part of Scott's special day! And Happy Birthday Mark!

And I hope you all enjoyed your Mother's Day weekend!

So Dad has been settled into a new apartment on the locked memory unit on the 3rd floor. He has a very nice apt at the end of the hall with a big window looking out onto the front of the facility.

I really like their memory unit. It is a big cozier-smaller gathering places and many of them(sitting areas with tvs, dining areas, work areas with memory spaces scattered throughout. The memory spaces have items that the residents can touch and handle like a wedding display, an infant crib with infant clothes and dolls, a sewing machine, jewelry and jewelry boxes. Just items throughout the unit that help with memories. I have not looked at all of them yet. And there is a very nice outdoor patio with lots of tables and chairs and huge pots for gardening activities. Also hummingbird feeders.

So mom fluctuates back on forth on liking the idea of Dad having his own space and then crying hysterically because he has been taken from her. And she hates everyone in Maryland and she hates Maryland and she gets mad at me and then I am wonderful. She is a roller coaster of emotions. She calls everyday to see if I can get Dad back in the apt with her. Yesterday she called 20 times and left all kinds of messages. I try to explain to her that Dad needs to be there to get more help. And he really does. He has difficulty feeding himself-he needs set up(cut the food, serve the food). He looks so much better. They make sure he shaves everyday, showers, changes his clothes, toilets and changes his Depends. He just really needs more attention than mom was giving him or would allow. Sadly she just does not understand that he needs help. When he was in the apt with her, she would turn away the help and he would get agitated. Same like when they were living in the WB house.

So Mom felt that they should have stayed in Michigan and then she forgets. It is exhausting. Hopefully they will both settle down(although Dad has adjusted quite well to life on the 3rd floor). They just really want him to get used to the new staff and them to him, as well as a new schedule. So they really don't want mom taking him back into the 2nd floor apt. She still does not understand why he no longer has a bed in their apt. She does get lonely and very sad without him there(I think she needs an audience). I am hoping to keep them/her busy enough during the day with him that she does not obsess on him not being there. He is also staying awake more.

So today they were supposed to go swimming, but I could not get them a ride. They will continue to go to the Sr Center here in Ellicott City 1x/wk on Thursdays. The staff told me that mom agreed to attend a service project event at the Ronald Mcdonald house. I was doubtful. I arrived tonight to enjoy a Mother's DAy dinner with them on the memory unit. She had kidnapped DAd and was holed up in the 2nd floor apt(as was told to me by the staff). But by the time I arrived, mom and dad had gone down to the dining room for dinner. I coaxed them upstairs for the 3rd floor dinner. We had a wonderful meal-ham, chicken-mom's favorite even-fried chicken! Mac n cheese, carrots and green beans, salad and cake for dessert along with drinks. I got Dad a beer. Then we sat out on the patio a bit and I left them in front of one of the tvs. I was busy with rearranging Dad's clothes. I had bought him a bunch of new items since he actually gets his clothes changed more frequently, like socks and pjs,

And Tom wants to try and hook up some type of system to get them their own cable tv in Dad's apt so mom can hang out in his room and away from some of the other distracting residents(so they can have their own alone time). We have another tv for them, but you have to get another cable box. Tom is trying to avoid having to pay full price for another hook up.

So here are some photos from tonight and DAd's apt. Our family will also have Mother's Day brunch with them on Sunday. K-

Mother's Day dinner on memory unit. (I took mom to get a perm last weekend).

 They gave DAd a hospital bed in case he needs it and we moved his power recliner chair and dresser.


 Sitting area where we will put another tv and chairs. I already dropped off their wooden rocking chair.

As you are all probably aware, things have been a bit crazy here in Baltimore. It seems that riots like to follow Tom and I around, including the LA riots as well as the Detroit riots(when I was little). We better stop moving!

Before the riots started last weekend, Tom, Scott and I were off on a Bike/Hike Boy Scout camping trip. We left last Friday after I spent most of the day out shopping for supplies and packing the van. Scott was nominated to cook for his patrol, so I had to get his supplies while he was in school. Tom was off work after having just returned from a business trip to San Francisco,  so he made sure all our bikes were in working order and loaded them onto our bike rack. After jump starting the van(looks like the external GPS sucked out the battery while the bikes were being loaded), we headed out to Lorton, VA. We stayed in a State campground-Pohick State Park near Mt Vernon(plantation home of George and Martha Washington) on the Potomac River. There is a very nice bike path that runs along the Potomac, from Mt Vernon to the Reagan airport. We stopped for dinner at a local Italian restaurant before reaching camp and setting up the tents.

It was a bit chilly last weekend. We got up early for breakfast and then headed out for the bike ride. Tom and I stopped half way along the trail, about 4 miles into the ride with our van in case any of the boys had trouble. Most of the troop completed the whole loop-16 miles. They ended at the Woodrow Wilson bridge for a lunch break. The bridge was recently remodeled and has a very nice(and huge) park underneath with lots of parking too. Tom and I took off on our bikes and rode up into the town of Alexandria. I had never been there before. It was a bit chilly, and early in the day, so we stopped into Starbucks to warm up before heading back to meet the boys.  The town reminds me of Williamsburg, Charlestown and Savannah all rolled into one. Lots of old, original buildings from the 1700s. I would enjoy going back to try out some of their restaurants and peek in at the stores.

A few boys followed their dad through Alexandria and up to Arlington, so they made a 28 mile ride. We really did not want to try to herd all the little scouts through downtown on a busy Saturday shopping morning. So we all headed back to camp. We tried to stop into Mt Vernon to hike the grounds, but they have changed the entrance by adding a visitor center. You can no longer just walk around the gardens or farmland, but have to pay to get into the whole complex. So we had to skip that and head back to camp.  It was early afternoon. The younger hiking scouts were still off finishing up rank requirements. I decided to take a few boys over to play Putt Putt golf  at the camp site. As soon as we finished, I recommended Scott start dinner since we were expecting rain. As soon as dinner was over, it started pouring and did not stop until early the next morning. So we spent most of our time in the tent(sadly, no campfires). At least we missed the small snowstorm they had back home! Crazy.

In the morning we packed up and headed home. It was a bit of a rough start as the new, younger boys are not as well trained in repacking tents or chuck boxes or backpacks. We set our older boys on them to help them get organized so we could leave! It is like herding chickens!(and of course a few of them got sick). All the more fun. Anyhow, we managed to get home early enough to unload and clean up the camping equipment. Then Scott got busy with his homework.

Allison also enjoyed a weekend of camping with her Frisbee team. The girls left this past Friday for a campground west of DC on the Shenandoah river. They had a lot of fun camping out with a bonfire and playing Ultimate Frisbee with teams from all over the DC area.

I had a few more errands to run last week-I had to take my mom to the dentist for a few fillings. Also, the Assisted Living facility decided to move my father onto the memory unit so they could provide him with more direct care. So this past Friday I was busy helping to move all his belongings into a new apartment, as well as trying to calm my mother down. She is not happy about being separated from my Dad. But Dad needed more attention than my mom could give him. It is going to be an adjustment for all of us.

Meanwhile, things seem to be calming down in our Charm City(not so charming right now). But what a different type of experience. People arrived to clean up the city after a night of fires and looting. Even a construction company outside the state volunteered to rebuild the burned Sr Center. We've actually had more media here in town than actual citizens it would appear. I have never seen so many CNN reporters in our city. Guess it was cheaper than traveling to Nepal to cover the quake. And our riots sparked many demonstrations in cities around the country including New York and DC. Sadly, the riots took their toll on our economy and tourism. Many events were cancelled downtown including high school proms, several events scheduled at our convention center, even a trip to our local mall by Dr Oz. He was scheduled to visit and conduct a live show but it was cancelled last week. And that was not even being held downtown! The most fascinating was when the Orioles played without any baseball fans in the stadium. A first in MLB. At least we have that!

So the city curfew has been lifted and we hope things will improve. Baltimore really is a unique city with lots of potential and lots of support and love from its residents. It has actually come a long way as a blue collar shipping town.

Summer decided to arrive last weekend! And just as quickly, it left. The temperature was in the 80s last Saturday. We were busy catching up with our spring cleaning. Both inside and out. The whole neighborhood was busy cutting the grass and cleaning up the flower beds. Including us. Everything seems to be blooming all at once.

Tom had been out working in LA all last week. He got home Friday night and spent Saturday sprucing up the lawn mower so he could get the grass cut. Scott helped out by restacking our stone wall around the beds in the front. He was not happy to come across a small snake in the process!

At least Tom had a chance to meet up with my brother Mike in LA and they enjoyed dinner together. Back here in Baltimore, Scott and I had a busy week. On Tuesday night we attended Scott's Confirmation pot luck dinner. I asked Scott to put a lasagna in the oven, but he missed the timing. So I had to run and pick up some wings from Pizza Hut, and throw some spinach pie in the oven before heading over. Fortunately there was more than enough food. The dinner was to give the candidates and their sponsors time to think about the whole confirmation process and chat. Scott enjoyed visiting with his friends. They also made sure the kids completed all their requirements. Looks like Scott is right on track for his big day, May 9th. We will be enjoying having Mark and Linda Seitz come visit as Mark is Scott's sponsor.

Scott and I were also busy on Thursday night. Tom assisted with organizing the Resurrection Science Fair. Again, he was out of town during the event, so he conveniently signed me up to help out. Not a problem except I did not want to judge the projects. That is what I was assigned to do anyway. I just remember how strict the judges were on Scott and Allison, and I was not sure I was up to the job. So Tom requested that Scott join me as a judging partner. Turns out we only had 12 projects and 8 judges, so we did not need to interview every kid. However, no one knew how the process worked, including the teacher. Tom usually gave out the instructions. I decided we would pair off and judge at least 3 projects each which worked out. There were also 3 research projects and an engineering challenge(balloon cars). But they only had 8 entries for the engineering  contest and two teachers judged the research projects. So it did not take us too long to come up with the top 3 science projects. The number one project was an experiment by two 4th grader boys on the Super Powers of Dog Drool. They placed dog and human saliva in petri dishes with bacteria to see how it would react. The bacteria won, so don't let your dog lick your wounds/cuts/etc! Antibiotics work better for infections it would appear. They did a great job with their experimentation and the presentation. So we wrapped up the evening around 8pm.

And last week was a first for Scott with his track team. He finally competed(twice) last week in a track and field event. He got to throw the shot put and a discus. He likes the shot put better and throws a little over 20 ft. It is a whole new experience for him. He especially enjoyed the bus ride over with the team to a local high school for one of the meets. This is his first, official team sport. He continues to work out at the Y on Friday nights also with a friend. That gives me time to run errands-like picking him up a suit for his confirmation. I get my exercise class done on Friday mornings.

And since we had such a beautiful weekend, we decided to make sure our bikes were up and running for next weekends camping/biking trip with the boy scouts. I was going to take my parents out for a small boat ride on the Potomac as a birthday gift for my Dad, but the weather turned a bit windy and chilly. Best to save that for a warmer day. Instead, Scott, Tom and I took out our bikes on a quick ride up  a trail nearby. It was all uphill, and Tom and I decided to take a break midway at a local bakery for a drink break. Scott went on another block to the top of the hill and then we coasted all the way back. Unfortunately I blew my back tire on the way down and had to get off and walk. At least we were close to home for a repair. And later that evening, I had to take Scott over for his Boy Scout annual swim test with the whole troop.I was nominated to mark off the boys as they finished their tests. Scott bailed me out so he could get home and study!

Meanwhile, Allison spent her busy weekend in Delaware playing Field Hockey. Her Club team signed up for the Delaware Beach Bash tournament and needed a goalie. Allison played every game for two days and was completely exhausted(and bruised too). But she had a lot of fun, even though their wins were limited. Seems that the entire team was a bit out of shape. Not used to playing in the spring. She is staying busy with classes too. But managed to finally meet up with a guy that her friends introduced her to since he is a computer science major and they have a lot in common(ie video gaming).

We also kept busy last weekend enjoying dinner with friends at their house(Beth and Barry). Naturally, Cookie came along to keep their puppy company. We will be puppy sitting soon, so we want them to remain friends!

Dave, I mentioned in a previous email that I had copies made of your family photos, framed them and has you can see, they have a prominent spot on mom and dad's new cabinet in their apt(top R hand shelf). 




Did you ever have one of those days? That was my Sunday. Tom and I have a running joke that we seem to break kids that are under our care. When Allison and Scott were little, we had a few mishaps with a couple of the neighbor children under our watchful eyes during playdates. We broke two of them-one wrist fracture and one elbow fracture.

This weekend we had one go to the hospital with an asthma attack. On our watch. We did not cause the asthma attack, but we keep wondering why we volunteer to watch other people's kids. Anyhow, we opened up our house to Allison's Ultimate Frisbee team. All 20 girls. The team travels each weekend to different Universities for tournaments and they usually bunk down at a house of one of the players. Allison has had the pleasure of staying at several different homes, and we thought it was our turn to volunteer. And so we did. We spent last week frantically cleaning bathrooms and making floor space to accommodate  up to 20 girls. Also planning a dinner and two breakfasts. Plus the shopping.

As well as celebrating Dad Bozyk's 80th Birthday smack dab in the middle of the week. (We actually had to postpone dinner until Saturday). I did a run by their apt with a balloon bouquet on Weds night, but Dad had already drifted off to sleep by 8pm. It is tough turning 80! At least he seems over his cold. And they removed the room restrictions in their building.

So Friday evening, we were lucky to have just 8 girls sleep over at the house. They all drove up together from school. They enjoyed dinner of pizza and salad(per their request), along with cookies and cheese puffs. EAsy enough. Then they were up watching movies and slept in our basement, our play room and the living room couch. On Saturday I was up early making breakfast-egg casserole and french toast casserole along with the usual breakfast stand-bys-cereal and bananas. They were out the door by 9am. They played all day and then about 12 showed up in the late afternoon to start taking showers and get ready to go out to dinner. Of course they were all sunburned. Our Spring/Summer has officially arrived. I was busy passing out the Aloe Vera gel, along with ice bags, bacitracin and bandages for a few banged up girls. (Remember, this is non tackle football with a frisbee). Yeah, no sprained ankles or wrists! But they did not win any games that day.

Tom and I had been out for an early dinner with my parents. We took Dad Bozyk out to Olive Garden, courtesy of Mike Bozyk, and then opened birthday gifts. We decided to hurry home when we heard all the girls were coming back to the house early. After they cleaned up, they all went out to dinner at Pizzeria Unos(see a theme here?). But not all of them came back right away. Late at night a few girls informed me that Allison had driven one of them to the Howard County Hospital ER. She was having an asthma attack. Oh great. Her parents were in New Jersey-4 hours away. The young lady was admitted to the hospital but hoped to be discharged in the early morning hours. I was waiting up to go pick her up and drop her off at another girl's house in the neighborhood(Allison's roommate). They were pet free and I did not want the girl to have any more issues that might involve our cat. Turns out the hospital kept her overnight, and then kept her until Tuesday morning! Apparently it was more than an asthma attack.

Our girls were up very early Sunday morning. Tom picked them up Einstein bagels and left for the airport to travel out to LA for work. I filled them up on fruit and cereal and they packed up and left. They had a few early games(won at least a game) and then drove back to Salisbury. I still had the hospitalized girl's suitcase and pillow. Her mother arrived at our house in the afternoon from Jersey. Very sweet but a bit overwhelmed trying to find her way around and of course worrying about her daughter. She was just glad she had been staying at our house(little did she know our reputation!). Anyhow,  she picked up her daughter's belongings and I offered our house if she wanted to stay. She thought she might stay in the hospital with her daughter, or look for a hotel. But she was going to insist that her daughter see a specialist when she got back home.

In the meantime, while waiting for her to stop by the house, I was trying to decide if I should drive about an hour north of Baltimore to pick up Scott at his Confirmation retreat. Apparently their bus broke down and they had to wait 1.5 hrs for another ride. Both Scott and the girl's mom were supposed to show up at our house at the same time. Scott opted to wait for another bus so I just had to pick him up from the church parking lot. Right before the girl's mom arrived. Never a dull moment.

Anyway, Scott survived his weekend away at retreat from Friday night to Sunday and he had a lot of homework to catch up on. Plus a letter to write to the Bishop due the next day. He also was back in school last week after an exhausting Spring Break. They had a wonderful article in the local paper on the Robotics Tournament held at U of Maryland over break that Scott participated in. Even his Boy Scout troop was in the paper this past week to honor one of the scouts that developed a patch for the Honor Guard used to conduct flag ceremonies. Scott's troop has a group of boys that volunteer for special programs such as activities involving the Wounded Warriors to act as Honor Guards during flag ceremonies. And now they have a National Patch to go along with the job.

We definitely stay busy here in Maryland!

Another Birthday Wish goes out to Sandra Bozyk who also celebrated her special day this past week.
