It's been three months since I've posted here. I guess I've been either too busy or too tired or just without anything to say.
Football season is winding down. High school playoffs started last night with some exciting games around the state. Of the three teams I had personal interest in, Lockney, Petersburg and Rule, only Lockney didn't make the playoffs. Rule lost last night 46-0 to Newcastle so their playoff run is over. Petersburg plays Meadow tonight for the second time this year. The scoreboard show will have it's final 2010 show tonight with 56 games to track down. Texas Tech football has had it's ups and downs this year. I guess it's "getting to know you" kind of year. With three games to go, it would be nice to pull out two wins and that's quite likely. Recruiting for 2011 is looking good but we will see how it comes out in February. I won't even talk about Dallas Cowboy football because there is nothing to talk about. My fantasy team is in the middle of the pack but maybe it can still make the playoffs. I just wished I had a running back to go with Aaron Rodgers.
It sure was fun to watch the Texas Rangers make a run to the World Series. I wished they could have pulled it all out but just making it there made everyone in Texas excited about baseball for a short time.
I've been sitting in a hospital in Lubbock waiting for a myriad of doctors to decide what is wrong with my wife. It appears that it is her gall bladder so maybe today they'll decide when to take it out and life can get back to normal for everyone. I'm kind of glad I'm not going to be outside today as it is raining and cold. I hope anyone going to a playoff game will dress appropriately tonight. Amarillo, which is 120 miles north, has received an inch of snow so far today.
My closing thought for the day: Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections but instantly set about remedying them–every day begin the task anew. -Saint Francis de Sales
“For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,”-- Colossians 1:9 (NASB)
