Never thought retirement would be like this

6 more minutes and it's 45 Ok, 38 GA. I hate to give up on my GA team but it looks pretty slim that they will pull it out. I have to say they were two matched up teams. Good game.

I gave up on the game and decided to vacuum the den and then looked up and it's a tie! What the heck?

LOL:love_heart:
 

Hate to bring this up already, but I'm getting excited about this game tomorrow. Never cared that much about football before. Setting myself up for a big letdown, I'm afraid. :(:rolleyes:

maggiemae: Do you have the tissues ready?

Nancy, I am on the "fence" with this game. Don't bring out the tissues yet. I thought the Rose Bowl was a lost cause but what a turn around! Maybe I should get out the vacuum cleaner again? LOL

And what about this cold weather? We finally got to 37 degrees today (we have been right at/or barely above freezing for days)! I think if it got to 40, it would feel like Spring! I had the grandkids last week for their final days of winter break and it was a challenge to keep them occupied inside because it was too cold for them to play outside! Thank goodness for their electronic devices! And now the schools are closed tomorrow for expected ice in the morning but their Mama is staying home with them. Thank you Lord!

Go Dawgs!

You must be a lot farther north. We turn the corner tonight, then lows above freezing, but just for a few days.

I just want things to get back to normal---everything, not just the weather. It seems like something happens that's good for an excuse to hibernate, every day since Thanksgiving. And not even any colds or strained muscles, like you've had.

I'm counting on Tuesday to get back in the swing of things. Ha!
 
Is there a cuteness requirement in order to be a quarterback? Look at this person. He is only a freshman. Think how disappointed his mother would be if Georgia were to lose tonight. Can't happen.

You better not even bring out those tissues girl! We got another whole half game to play and the Dawgs are looking pretty good!
 
Georgia 13, Alabama 0 (half)

What do you think, maggiemae?

We were posting at the same time. I'm holding my breath. 13 points is not enough.
 
Bama does not look too good but I bet their coach will give them a good talking too at half time, so who knows. Yep, GA needs to put some points on the board before I feel comfortable. Been sorta "ho hum" to me so for. And all the commercials are making me crazy...worse than the Super Bowl!
 
Georgia 20, Alabama 13

I'm watching online synchronized with radio commentary. It's better. You can watch the field during time outs. Commercials are only talking. Fewer replays. Play is going so fast, TV coverage missed a couple of snaps just in the first 5 minutes because of replays.

I am nervous...AL is getting more aggressive...let's see. Oh my 19 to 20! I am too old for this! Oh wait..tied! Well, bring out the tissues!
 
:cry:

Georgia 23, Alabama 26 (overtime)

I don't believe I've ever watched two more exciting football games. Now I'm hooked, but the season is over. :(

The split screen ruined it for me. What the hell is ESPN doing that for? I’ve got a 65 inch tv and it cuts the picture in half. I was rooting for UGA too.

Pappy, I guess we might have to learn how to transfer what you see online to the TV set. I was watching ESPN too. They had many window options online, but small on my pc monitor. Best part is you could pick either a Georgia or an Alabama radio station commentary. Biased coverage? Just a little. LOL!

My body had just got adjusted to 60 degree weather this week and now we are back to the 30's for the high this next week! I'm not liking this! Deep cleaned the two bathrooms upstairs and cleaned the ceiling fan in our bedroom. Lord, it was full of dust. I am short, so I spread an old sheet over the bed and climb in the center of the bed and dust each blade. Kinda makes me feel like a little kid again and want to jump on the bed!
 
Glad you didn't bounce off the bed Maggiemae. :)

I'd have moved the bed out of the way of putting my paint ladder under the ceiling fan to dust it, but that wouldn't be as much fun as standing on the bed and bouncing on it. lol

:lol: I have a mental image of this, Maggie!!
 
maggiemae: Your fan cleaning reminds me of the time my girlfriend spent the night when we were kids. We jumped on the bed late at night and broke it. It made a loud crash and woke up my parents. We were old enough to know better, maybe 3rd grade.

If she had not been there as a witness I probably wouldn't be alive today. :playful:
 
Latest experiment...

A drop of left over PVC Trim Mounting Adhesive on each finger tip. A little adjustment and filing, and I can finally practice a few chords on this guitar for longer than 5 minutes. Only $5 for a whole tube.

Don't ask me how to get it off. Haven't thought that far ahead. :)

If that doesn't help, I'll get one of these... :playful:

The reason I started the thread about memorizing things ......

Found out I *may* have to memorize these diagrams in order to play this guitar. Not going to happen. I've narrowed it down to 16 important ones, and so far I've memorized 2. There has to be a better way....one where you can use reason and logic, or sheet music.

:crying:
