Footballs Back...

and everything feels right in the world again.
No matter the day, no matter the time...Sunday, Monday...Thursday or any other day of the week, I'm in.
The KC Chiefs are my team, Patrick Mahomes is my guy.
We played on Monday night, dominated the game and won 31 - 10 against the broncos.
I love the game, it energizes me.
Handoffs on the ground or the thrill of a great pass, and the anticipation of will it be caught.
All so thrilling, you know I took a few pictures.


Arrowhead Stadium




Patrick Mahomes scored the first touchdown.
Coming off of last seasons injury, he played really well.




I enjoy soccer too, my boys played soccer but now I really love football.

Before football started back up, this was the extent of the excitement in our house.

Saying "No Thank You"..Without The Quilt

This post may not be for everyone...
but it shares feeling some of us may have, and how to deal with them.

It took me a really long time to learn that you can say "no" without giving the reason why,
or submitting a doctors note,
"I can't make it, but thank you for thinking of me".
This is a kind, completely acceptable answer.

It is also about replacing "I'm Sorry" with "Thank You".
I'm sorry I can't make it tonight - Thank you for inviting/including me.
I'm sorry to ask you for another favor - Thank you for helping me out.
I'm sorry for being so needy - Thank you for being here for me.
I'm sorry for being so emotional - Thank you for loving me.
I'm sorry I'm late - Thank you for waiting for me.


Have a great new week!
