My thoughts by Paul M. Dugan

 A note about our mother:  she is ok but not ready for visitors that much.  She is getting better slowly.  Please contact our mother by text or email or phone to keep in touch with her while she heals at this time.  Thanks again.  Peace too!!! Work has being good for me.  Parents are fine in their way for the time being while a handle some stuff while they get taken care of.    Both the NHL & NBA are in their playoff times at this time!!!  WC 2026 is coming for all euro football & soccer fans out there in the United States of America (not the dmv area), Mexico and Canada this summer.  Are you ready for it???

Dad & I are having Easter 1 (Salmon) & Easter 2 (Ham) (rumor is that Mom will return home very soon) this April time.   Both Final Four for Men & Women Basketball ending college basketball this Easter weekend.  Not sure I will watch any at all.  Will you?  Rules of the game: Men & Women details. We aren’t doing much during Easter.  Are you???  I am clear out the house so cleaning ladies can they can make the house look better inside of it. Please understand it if I don’t contact you at a prompt time in life.

The history about St. Pat’s Day .  2026 World Cup (soccer or euro football) is coming this summer.  What you think of this event?  Watching some mini ncaa basketball tournaments ( men & women ) with our dad before the big dance starts up.  Lots of brackets to believe in to win it all if you want.  Go Irish!!!!!!!  Premier league is soccer is ok but all they want is top dogs to win (too much money to lose).  Trying to do cornered beef for Saint Patrick’s Day I hope in the crock pocket.  You? Our mother is still in the rehab with the pain management issues dealing with.  It’s a work in progress to fix up on.  Rehab food isn’t great still.  Lots of friends and us give her mostly chicken noodle soup.  I usually make a peanut butter & jelly (P&J) sandwich to help eat better with softer food to deal with.

According to MarchMadness Boys or Girls:  Both Men & Women basketball from the ncaa or college in the states about to begin!!!  How many bracket pools are you joining or managing this time? ESPN women predicted - men predicted ,  Fox sports men & women, CBS men & women ,  nbc sports men & women…  top 16 women & men mentioned this season tournaments.  USA Today details . Why is our dumb leader want a college sports roundtable : leaders here,     Cfplayoff 24 team pipe dream story . Our mother is still in the rehab for now.  Hope she comes home very soon. Former Coach of University of NOTRE DAME Football LouHoltz passed away - links: remember Lou,  sports illustrated spot ,  USA Today Article1 , USA Today Article2 ,  USA Today Article3 ,  USA Today Article4 , USA Today article5 , more I guess.   ESPN one… So the 2026WorldCup is happening this summer in the USA, Mexico and Canada so are you...

 Hi…,      Our mother is doing much better after her fall while doing PT & OT at the rehab center for now (she had a hospital stay earlier this year).  Pain management is still a problem for her at this time.  If you want to visit or call our mom let us know.  Thanks to all that have done so. My birthday was ok because I celebrated it very calm with no fan fair because my mother is still getting better at this time.  It’s very odd to do so without her.  Love you Mom!!! From…,   Paul P.S. A March Madness update for Men & Women tournaments right now are. ESPN take for women and men tournaments. Men tournaments: CBS sports , ESPN, FOX Sports & NBC Sports . I watched some of the 2026 Winter Olympics Milano Cortina but as much as should have this time.  Next 2028 Summer Olympics is in LA , California so we must be ready for that.  Go USA !!! Results: USA 2) 12 (G), 12 (S) and 9 (B) total medal count . A very big e...

 We are still dealing with the snow/ice era this freaking winter time in the dmv area.  Since a little warm it’s melting finally to go away. Still watching variety of college basketball (men & women) while with the Winter Olympics are going on this winter in Italy (Milan & Cortina d Ampezzo).  What do you think of the event that’s presented by NBC TV channels in the USA. Great news for University of NOTRE DAME both women & men basketball will play versus Villanova in Rome , Italy where the Pope Leo XIV is at now who went to NOVA (from Chicago, IL also). Invite the pope right here .   Our family has lots of history with both of this school’s.  What do you think of this?
