I'm sick of the Cardinals (and the Giants as well, truth be told) but dammit, they keep winning. The Cards won their division series earlier and the Nats pitcher just walked in a run in their elimination game against the Giants ... luckily it's only the second inning and the team can recover if he can straighten out and pitch right.
I love baseball and even though my team is out of the playoffs, I can still appreciate a good game.
Soon it will all be over and we will be reduced to watching our team only once a week ... thank goodness the Pats have improved to the level that we aren't fighting angina while we watch. And the Celts won their first pre-season game, Rajon Rondo is reportedly coming back soon, so we may be able to watch them as well.
But my heart is really with the Boys of Spring and Summer ...

Inspiration where you find it
So, I am newly inspired to write by my friend Ed ... he has started a journal and maybe we can cheer each other on to keep it up.
I am thinking that mornings might be the best time for me ... when I am using my light box to avoid the SAD symptoms. It could work out that I can do two things at once ... which always makes me feel more productive. I haven't done much here with my own blog over the years. I think it's mostly because I am not an indoor type of person ... unless it's the dead of winter when I want to just snuggle up and read, sew, create in the kitchen or hibernate in bed.
I have been contemplating a big change in my life ... OUR lives (so far G hasn't protested too much, but we shall see) within the next three years. I believe I need to relocate to a locale on the east coast where there is more sun and a milder winter. Recently I have been checking out the Carolinas for two reasons. One, we can probably afford a home in those areas, even near the coast and two, it seems we could enjoy a longer planting season, which we both love so much. It's such fun to to plant and watch the growth of veggies, flowers and herbs that we would love to branch out into fruits and more. Just thinking about it and dreaming of the potential is a good way to distract me from facing the upcoming winter months.
This year I have my bff's daughter's shower and wedding to look forward to so that is helping as the fall approaches. Now, to plan a mid winter getaway ... next distraction to get me through the tough times.
