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.

So I didn’t write a blog post yesterday. I had a busy day at work was there late, then watched a bad Disney Channel Movie with the kids before the Hubs got home. The Hubs worked late too. Then today was busy as well. Although, we didn’t have to be anywhere until 1:00. We went out to the field and tossed a baseball around and threw some BP for the kids. Then it was the Wrestling End of Season Party, Baseball practice for the Boy, where the Girl and I helped put logos on the players batting Helmets, then went to dinner with the Family.

After dinner we headed to a friends house to watch the UFC fights. During the fights the Boy climbed on my lap and shared the chair I was sitting in. So I got some free cuddle time with my not so “little” little 10 year old boy! That doesn’t happen much anymore! It was great!

Now we are heading home. The Hubs and I were going to go out but he has to go in to work tomorrow for a couple hours and Grandma has a full house and we just aren’t “feeling it” so why go spend money going out when we can go home spend time just the two of us enjoying each other. Hopefully it will include more than just staring at the TV and falling asleep on the couch!

I don’t know about the Hubs but I miss our friends we used to go out with and hang out with. We had a great group we would meet up sing karaoke have a few drinks, dance, chat, sometimes we would stay home and sit around a fire chatting and sometimes play the Wii or Kinect games after hours. I miss the fun and friends and time together! We need to make an effort to get our group back, those that still live here anyway…

Well, for now tonight, maybe I will challenge the Hubs to a Wii tennis game…strip Wii Tennis! Or Kinect adventure… Whatever we do we need some fun and laughter and good sex to follow!!!  I’m ready!
