Weekly Update 1/20/2019

I did nothing this week. Not one thing! In my defense, it was because I had been called for jury duty starting Monday, so I was unable to schedule to do anything, thinking I might have to serve. That never worked out, but each day began with a threat that I may have to report.

So one thing I did, was read. I finished the incredibly long, and sometimes boring, biography of Laura Ingalls Wilder and her daughter, Rose Wilder Lane. Because Rose died almost 100 years after Laura was born, the 700+ page tome covered a century of American history

Sunday was a day of sports watching. I had spent a lot of the night watching tennis, and continued when I finally dragged myself out of bed in the morning. After opening the cemetery, I watched The Spurs win an exciting match. And then, of course there were the NFL championship games. They didn’t turn out the way I wanted, but at least the Chiefs did not have the game stolen from them like the Saints did. The officiating was horrible in both games, but the bad calls in the AFC game did not affect the outcome; they did in the NFC. I don’t even know if I’ll watch the Super Bowl (who am I kidding, of course I will) because I don’t care which of these teams wins. And now – I have one more week of tennis.
