This good Sunday started with Gene home after a week away, then a worship with our Goodrich church family. After that we made a quick run to Texas, where we did more fishing than catching. My weather app said it was sunny. Hmmm. After just catching 1 hybrid (after covering up my Texas Rangers shirt, maybe because I was getting a little cold; certainly no one thought it brought bad luck into the boat!), I watched & waited for a spectacular sunset. Instead, it was beautifully subdued. The Texas Rangers win-or-go-home ALCS game was starting as we left the lake & headed to CiCi’s for pizza. 0-1. 1-1. 3-1 by time we got to Mom’s apartment, where she & Amy were watching the game. We left at 9 after a nice visit with Mom, Amy & Stormy, who loves me SO MEOWCH! Rangers shirt still covered & visor possibly lost somewhere along the way, I listened to the rest of the game on my phone. I think I screamed when Garcia hit the grand slam in the ninth! So here we go again. Game 7 is tomorrow. Nothing is predictable or guaranteed, in sports, fishing, weather forecasts or anything else. Gotta remember to just enjoy every moment. It’s easier to enjoy fishing even when I’m not catching than it is to enjoy sports when the good guys aren’t winning (& especially when they seem to be imploding). It’s so much more fun to win.
I had decided to count this as a great day whether or not the Rangers won. And I’m going on the record as saying tomorrow is also a great day, no matter what!
