World Series Blues

Well here I am sitting and watching the pregame for the World Series. I have my 2007 World Champion Red Sox "hoodie" on and just can't get over that I am NOT excited about this series. I am thinking of turning over to watch the cooking channel or maybe HGTV - I am sure that "Get it Sold" would be sit on the edge of your seat exciting!
Anyway, I am not only finding that there is life after fantasy football implosion (my team is now named "Mother Theresa's sisters of mercy") and that there is baseball after the Red Sox go home for the winter. Brenda is busy working on a pair of socks (surprise, surprise) for Emma. They are going to be VERY CUTE (can I say that as a man?) but they are giving her fits. When Brenda makes socks for girls as she usually does, everything goes well. But when she has to adjust the size of the socks she runs into issues. At this point she is tearing out the heal and grumbling about "dropping stitches". And to think she does this for fun and relaxation.
As for me, I am getting ready for hunting. Andy, Josh and I went duck hunting last Saturday and we saw two, got one. I am not sure, but if you are sitting within ten feet of each other yet can't see either of the boys because of the fog, we might have had 100 ducks out laughing at us and we wouldn't really know. But the coffee and conversation was great. This Saturday starts the pheasant hunting season. The boys and I will make our usual trek out and if we do our usual, will be home for our nap before the Huskers kick off. Of course the kick off is 11:30 so we won't be out too long. Gotta pace ourselves!!!!!!
Oh boy, I better go as the Phillies have a baserunner on first base yet isn't a Phillie a sandwich? Just "food" for thought!
