Tis The Season

       For Football!
       I think yesterday, maybe earlier, there were TV's and radios set on football games at our house. Even if you were in another room, you could hear a game being played. We all had Ipads out looking up schedules, times, channels, lighting delays! We are a family of freaks and geeks for football.
      Hart was at the Auburn Game, and so was the new SEC Nation crew. I text him early!! to remind him to go see 'My' Timmy Tebow, and let him know we love him. All during that game, we had reports, play by play of what he saw, and what we saw on TV, to let him know if the call was right, or how long his rain delay may last. My cousins and friends were at the doomed Florida Game, who knows when that will get replayed. We watched Georgia, FSU, LSU, maybe some Mississippi State, Georgia Tech, honestly it was a football blur. It was Saturday football glory, even Lucy the Lab, looked concerned when we had to ask each other, if she had her supper?? All the team color garb comes out, and the smack talk about each coach and team member. My husband even watches Princeton and other unknown schools play, we allow his thinking outside the SEC box. Penn something, U Mass, ( I only thought they had basketball!) even Rutgers, I think has a team.
     Lucky for all we are good, at multifunctional working. We ate, shopped, read a book(me during the Georgia Game) pulled some weeds, washed clothes, walked Lucy, normal Saturday family duties. The difference is it was all done during half times, and a tight schedule. I feel very lucky to  have TV's in all rooms of the house, yes that is true, and I feel no shame! I grew up when TV was the end all, be all and it still has a place (many places) of honor in mi casa. In fact the big TV in the basement has been out for three weeks, and it makes me nervous. Bill says, "No one goes down there to use it!" ( that was after my rant about why there was no urgency to get it fixed quick, or buy a new one) Me, " Lucy and I use it on Mondays, and in the winter I like to paint down there, and......there has to be one!" "When people stay over, they need a TV!"
Bill, " Well there sure are other TV's all over the house, want me to put one down there?"
    Me again, " No, then that room would be minus a TV?" " Just roll with me!" "Husband of 34 years."
   Its Football Season, and we have to be ready. ( Note I have tennis on as I type!) in the kitchen, its wonderful!
   Thank you Homer for teaching me all about sports, and Mary for teaching me, to take my dolls with me everywhere! Knowledge of sports and taking care of babies, two traits that stayed with me.
        Go Gators, War Eagle, Go Tech, and I guess Princeton! for my one and only! Go U Mass for Brian and NYU, Keith I seriously don't think they had sports, did they?? I know you play a mean game of billiards!
