Pretty ho hum so far. We stayed home and watched the NFL and were in bed at 11:30pm watching “Blazing Saddles” and then flipped it over to ABC and watched the ball drop, wow Dick Clark looks/sounds rough, but then after a massive stroke and being old as dirt, that should not be a surprise. Anyway, after the ball dropped we kissed each other and watched more of “Blazing Saddles” and started to fall asleep so lights out at 12:30am, we are so exciting.

Today was perfect, the kind of weather I wanted to live in Florida for, January 1 and 79F, almost jumped in the pool. The only regret I have with this house is no heated pool, I would think it would be great to swim in 80F water and not the 68F to 70F that is the normal temperature of the water this time of year, in the summer the water gets to a 95F with all the sun, it sounds hot, but it actually feels great.

Today is not only the last day of the regular season in the NFL, but it is also the Finals of our Fantasy Football Leagues. I ran 3 this year made the playoffs in all 3 and the finals in one, where I am currently down 20 and it’s looking unlikely I will make a comeback. Pauline is also in the Finals in another league and she is also down 20, but has a great chance to getting 20+ as she has a RB, TE and D still yet to play, so I am rooting for her to pull it out. I like FFL, but at the same time I am getting burned out and hate the trash talk, it’s one thing to talk smack, it’s another to talk crap, and I have never been much of a crap talker, I just don’t think it’s needed. Anyway, I am not sure at this point I will do FFL next, but then you never know.

*sigh…. My comeback in FFL is looking more and more unlikely, no championship for me this year, but there is always next year…. Maybe.
