This is one of those days in which I'm finding it hard to be thankful. I've been sleeping like crap. My nose has been stuffed up for days and my mood has been up and down due to many factors in my life.
But, I've been determined to always find something to be thankful for, every day.
Hot wings may be at the top of my list today. Too shallow?
Okay, well, you may think this is shallow too, but I'm going for it anyway...
My Seattle Seahawks. Yep, I went there.
I've been a football fan since I was about 10. My dad has had season tickets since the very first year the Seahawks have been a team. I believe that was 1976. He would take to me at least one game a year.
As I got older, I got more into football and I didn't care if they won or lost, I love my Hawks. I started to go to more games. As many as I could. Whenever he had extra tickets I would say, "Me, me!!"
Eventually, my dad ended up giving his tickets to his law office and if the Hawks were good, I didn't really get to go, but if they had a bad season, me and my husband (this was when I was married of course) ended up going to at least 3 or 4 games a year.
When Hasselbeck came on board, they started getting good again, and the Kingdome came down and Qwest Field went up and we decided to buy our own season tickets.
We were there when the won the NFC Championship. That was exciting!!
Tickets got too expensive, so we gave them up. Then of course I got divorced. Now I'm back to only going to one game a year.
Now we have a good team again and it's been exciting to watch players like Russell Wilson, Richard Sherman and Marshawn Lynch on the field. 10-1!! I truly think we are Superbowl bound this year. If not, at least we had a great season.
