After two full days of football today will head in a different direction. Oh sure, there might be a couple of football games, but it is also the start of the Big 10 basketball season, so some of the day will be devoted to round ball.
This morning was spent visiting with the Pep Boys. The boys were most receptive in helping me clean out the last of the moths in my billfold the were remaining from 2012. Slowly we are getting PaT up to peak performance. Nothing that had to be done, but I prefer a vehicle that is in tip top shape. In today's case it was the front brake rotors were slightly out of spec and was dragging a bit. PaT now has new brakes all the way around and new shocks on the rear. I have also begun to look at new radios for PaT. I was tuning it this morning and found out that in this part of the country the radio seems to only speak Spanish.
Tonight the plan is to stay out of the way while the amateurs drink in the New Year. By doing this I will wake up in the morning sans headache and fuzzy tongue and will be ready for more football. My way of enjoying the good life.
I think the only way to avoid the Spanish is by getting Sirius XM. We love it. We, too, will be staying out of the way tonight. And my team won last night. Yippee!!
ReplyDeleteThere seems to be a lot of that spoken around here.
DeleteHave a very Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteAnd back at you and yours.
Deleteterrible game ... I can't believe Sandie's a Skins fan... jeeeez
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year ;)
You win some you lose some, what else can I say.
DeleteCarolyn - my sister is a Cowboy's fan. But I didn't give her too much grief over the game. She's getting old and senile - (not really but the Cowboy's??)
DeleteShe's getting old and senile... oh me... The Redskins??? seriously - I think Romo's going to the house
DeleteSandie, there's one in every family, I've got a sister who grew up a Cardinal fan and became a Cub fan.
Delete2012 was a great year. I hope your 2013 is even better. Have fun.
ReplyDeleteYou too Barney, and you know we will have fun.
DeleteWe will be watching all the bowl games right along with you! Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteBig 10 basketball today too.
DeleteI too have moved from college and pro football to Big10 basketball today...I predict Minnesota and Indiana winning tough fought battles today. Also I have found it best to stay at the hacienda on New Years Eve....I try to go outside and look at the moon/sky at midnight.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the games John.
I don't think we'll run out of sports to watch today Steve.
DeleteHappy New Year to you, John. You have a good plan, should work. Glad to hear that you're ready to start the new year with a freshly cleaned out wallet. Great timing on your part, too. There are lots of people that can't do that. Stay warm.
ReplyDeleteRuss, this isn't the first year I've started with an empty wallet. Happy New Year to you and your bride.
DeleteHappy New Year! 2013 is almost here! It'll be a new year with new travels.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to it, aren't you.
DeleteHappy New Year. I stay away from the partying crowds, too.
ReplyDeleteProbably safer.
DeleteYou turned on your radio and all you got was Spanish? Where do you think you are, the United States? ;c)
ReplyDeleteI should have known better, I'm south of San antonio where English is a second language.
DeleteAvoiding here also, not sure my eyes are going to make it another hour. Sleepy.....sending wishes for a wonderful New Year!
ReplyDeletejanet
At least we won't have to pay the price in the morning. Thanks for the visit.
DeleteHappy New Year John,
ReplyDeleteYep hanging here at my own cozy palace. Already hearing guns, fireworks and sirens.
The noise started here about 7 and is building to a grand finale. Happy New Year to you Jo, may every thing go your way in 2013.
