Today we are sitting watching NFL football and reminiscing about our Football team, the Seahawks. It’s been a few years since we haven’t been at a playoff game or had a game to watch during the playoffs. It’s great to be a good team but it takes constant work and effort and dynamic adjustments on many levels. Football is the ultimate team sport. The team has to work together as whole in order to win games and even more work to stay on top.

Football is dynamic in the game and even in-between seasons. Our team, the Seahawks, have seen so many changes. We’ve seen a lot stay the same as well. But if things that are dynamic and things that are static don’t groove together, you struggle. That is what happened this season. This is also what happens over time with relationships and families as well.

So many things are static but yet so many things are dynamic in life. It’s great if your loving the things that don’t change but if you are one who wants to embrace the dynamics of change and live with one who does not it can cause difficulty and struggle. The key is balance in life and football. There will always be change and there will always be things that stay the same. You cannot always affect them, be it to change or keep them the way you want.

We must, in order to be happy, embrace it all. Look for the things you love in every situation. Savor the passing moment as you are not guaranteed to have it again as much as you wish or want to or even try to keep it you will never get it back. It’s always good to remember what works, but realize you may not be able to duplicate it and that is okay. Change is really the only constant in life and change is not constant.

Acceptance, love, appreciation for the good is what we need to focus regardless of it’s what we think we want or need. Search for the good focus on the good enhance the good and put in hard work to affect change in the way you want it to go. If you don’t get the results you want, change is coming so don’t let it get you down!

Here’s to a better you, a better family, and a better football season, in 2018. It will take to perseverance to sustain and faith to change what needs to change.

one day at a timeToday was the last day of the regular season in the NFL! As you know I am a Seahawks fan and the Seahawks played pretty damn good today. They beat up on the 2 seed! The Seahawks, last week, played horrible! I don’t know what happened but today they were back to the team that has been rolling for the latter part of the season. Today, if the road to the playoffs goes through AZ I am pretty confident.

The Hub’s and I have tied our Fantasy Football League. We have a couples league and we tied for the championship…WTF?! Now what? Split the money. I can’t find anything in the rules to have a tie breaker. I like the idea of just splitting the money instead of making up a tie breaker at this point, Next year we’ll make a tie breaker rule for the Championship.

Play offs BABY!!!! The Seahawks are in the dance! They did well! If  they play like they did today, everyone else should be scared! Superbowl 50 here we come. One game at a time though, don’t get cocky or arrogant just play like you know how to play! Focus on what is in front of you. One play at a time one game at a time.

I am going to start 2016 with this advice! One step at a time, one piece at a time. Focus on what is in front of you and just do one thing at a time. Stay focused and don’t get overwhelmed you cant win the game in one play. You have to play the whole game one play at a time.

So for my fitness, organization, work and family goals take it one day at a time. Get your workout in today you have one chance for today no excuses just do it one day at a time!

Damn it!!! I go into living and being in the moment yesterday that I didn’t blog. I had planned on doing it between or maybe during the Boy’s football end of season party. Which almost was a disaster because the Mini Helmets that we give out (instead of trophies) were slow in shipping so they were not going to be delivered until Monday! I tracked them down and drove to DuPont, which is about an hour away, to get them. We set up the ‘trophy’ table with personalized cookies that I had made for everyone with the Helmets. It looked so cute and the party was a blast. Kids had fun coaches and parents bonded some more before departing for the off season! I love football season! Can’t wait for next year!

After the party we met up with some of our besties, and my phone died so even if I hadn’t “forgotten” I wouldn’t have been able to blog anyway! But you know it was nice to not have my phone or as the Hubs calls it my leash! I have been trying over the last year or so to not be so attached to my phone (except when I am blogging on the way to a Hawks game like today).

It is actually nice. Who cares what’s going on on Facebook or Twitter or in the News while you are spending quality time with friends! It is kind of annoying when you’re with your buddies and they have to check Facebook to see what everyone else is doing. A quick selfie post to social media is cool but why do we care what all your friends that you’re not hanging with are doing? When we are together let’s be together. Our group last night were good with this for the most part. Everyone has one in the group that gets attached to their phone and really we are all the one friend every now and then. When you notice you turn into that person leave your phone in the car or something to get you to check in with the real people you are with. (You can finish reading my blog first though!)

I love my friends. The best part about them is that we don’t see eachother as much as we used to but we still love each other and have as much fun as always even when we add a new person like yesterday! It was fun we danced and sang and bonded and plain just relaxed. Most phones stayed in pockets we didn’t even take selfies we just were together, laughed and enjoyed each others company!

Now today is Seahawks Day!!!

image

It’s a night game but the Hubs and I are going over early and going to enjoy the day together! It’s our day and since I’ve been working during away games we really like to take it in and enjoy the day with each other and no other responsibilities!

Enjoy your day Friends! Look up from your phone and enjoy life in the real world! You can catch up on Facebook later!

Seahawks WIN!!!! It was an away game, and I didn’t have to work! We did have practice though (last one of the year!) So, we had a few peewee coaches and kids over! I cooked some awesome wings and did my whole hostess thing! I love having people over! I do have a messy kitchen to clean up but oh how I loved having a house full of friends!!! That’s all I have time for today! Have a great day folks!!

Still, even as our team is not doing the best and coming off a 2-4 start to the season, and back to back 4th quarter melt downs. I still have confidence in my team. It is early in the season still. No need to panic.

Feel free bandwagoners who can’t take it to jump or or exit now but this girl will always be a Seahawks fan and will always look at the good stuff they do.

I love football. I love the Seahawks. I love the time I get with my husband at games (especially since I have been working all the away games). I love what football has meant in my life and my relationship. It is all bigger than just a game. Football is a big part of my life and I will continue to cherish every moment, win or lose! I will always be a crazy screaming on defense, Jersey wearing, eternally representing Blue Friday and will forever have more Seahawks gear than shoes, Season ticket holding, early ferry riding kind of fan!

Sad for the loss but I am one oh so happy girl today because today was a football day!

It’s game day baby!!! We are headed to the game ready to lose our voices and cheer in our team! After this weekend all I want to lose is our voices! I think our Hawks have got this. Our ferry is just turning the corner around Bainbridge Island into Puget Sound the city looks amazing today. The weather is perfect! The Hubs found an awesome Meme for me to share. He works for me I should give him a percentage of my profits from this blog, when I start making some! The Hawks will not disappoint! LET’S GO SEAHAWKS!!!!

They need to come through with this win not for the record or play offs or anything but because, I need celebration sex!!!

Go Hawks!!!

Saturday Nap Day

Happy Saturday! It is nap time here at the Earl House. Well one of us is napping two are watching Disney Channel and one is pseudo working… take a guess who? I need to get football gear order submitted for Jerseys. I am afraid I am going to miss someone, write someone’s name wrong on the back and have no way to fix it at all since it is coming from back east! But I just have to get it done! This is a stressful job and when I decided to save the league money by doing it this way I didn’t realize the extra stress and work load that I would be affected by. But it is for the kids and it will be much better in the end! …I hope!

Like I said it is nap time here. The Hub’s is installing Windows 10 on our home PC and 10259903_794316270588938_1979588331700485692_nnapping at the same time. I snoozed a bit but woke up and can’t go back to sleep so I figured it was a good time to blog here.

So the Seahawks game was fun last night but, they have some work to do. Which really is what you learn most first preseason games! I trust the coaching staff and the team that they will get back to work and come out on top this year. After the game the Hub’s and I stopped at our favorite watering hole in town and just hung out. We had a great time until the end of the night, a drunk fight broke out and the Hub’s had to step in a break things up. Stupid people! Then the guy resisted the police when they tried to arrest him, boy he probably did not have a great night! So the Hub’s and I were spun up at 2am so we got home weren’t tired and had a good time sans clothes and made the most of our adrenaline rush… which is why we are so tired right now, but oh it was a sexy night for sure!

Tonight we are planning on going to a “Glow Party” which should be fun. It is a charity event at the bar I work at. I like it when the others come out to support events I plan and work so I am going to be a team player have a few drinks and see what a glow party is all about. Should be fun and exciting! Although we just got a text from a friend about what are we doing tonight an invite from friends may change my “loyalty to my bar’s event” although we will check it out at some point regardless! Time to get back to napping on this Saturday afternoon!

It’s game day. Yes it might be preseason but it is Football!!!! Hallelujah! We are sitting at the oldest saloon in Seattle getting our pregame on! It’s just the Hubs and I for now. We got here kind of early but our normal crew will not be having season tickets this year…sadface!! So we will need to meet new Seahawks friends and make a new crew! Or just enjoy eachother!

It is stormy today should make for a fun atmosphere for the game! Can’t wait to see the NFC Championship banner unveiled and feel the energy of Bittersweet Symphony playing as they announce the players! Preseason is always kind of toned down but still a lot of fun!! Especially because many people can’t get tickets to regular season so it feels like real football!

I am so excited! Go Hawks!!
