My husband turned on the television this afternoon:  it’s a football game. These are the normal sounds of fall to me, even though I rarely sit down to watch a full game. 

It’s not “our” team, the New England Patriots.  I turn to Google, and type in, “What time is the….”   The first option to immediately pop up surprises me for a second.  It self-completes to “…the Celtics game three against the Heat.”  At that, I smile—because I will make time to watch a full basketball game. 

And when I listen to the news, there are more sports results, including baseball, golf and even the Tour de France biking.

We are seriously “out of season” at this point, with all the delays in the spring. But the silver lining for now?  Lots of choices!
