The past year has had enough stress across the board for far too many people. Many of the “escapes… for the circles of people I know were convoluted with, well, “stuff…. In my entire 48 year career of breathing, I never thought I’d see the year where i wished I was more of a football fan. The Detroit Lions are a massive boost for the city and fan base. The Tigers are bringing their own excitement as well. The Red Wings had a rough go.
Yesterday felt like a vacation. A lot of good things happened and once in a while it’s ok just to enjoy it. A bit of a sugar high, the crash was rough after covering hockey for about 6 hours so having “Five Nights at Freddie’s… available on streaming was a nice way to wind down the day. Much more calm.
In all seriousness, please give yourself a vacation from everything if you get that moment. Boost the joy and be around the people you care most about. Detroit won a game with a lot of scoring, and at the WJC a 19 year old prospect is getting a lot of love. Apparently Triple Crown jerseys with the #4 are in abundance. That may make its way to the post Christmas list.
Just soak it in for a few minutes. Last night I stood back and looked at the month of December as a 6 year blogger for the website. Even with a 10 day break in the action, the post game was my 24th post for the month. That’s a crazy month. A lot is happening and yesterday was a frantically fun break from some of the rough ride.
Thank you to each and every one of you who read this or have read anything over the past 6 years. This opportunity is still a dream come true and one that has been a blessing when it was greatly needed. Be good to yourselves and each other. Have a safe and happy new year. Tomorrow will see some more coverage, but it’s a good day just to breathe in a good yesterday.
