Yeap, it is :) I got over to my sisters about 12:30 or so. Had time to slice cheese and get the platter of crackers and pepperoni together. Chips and dip. A drink and a comfy seat. Then it was kick off time. The game started a bit slow, but the rain was coming down. Lightly at first but off and on throughout the game it poured. The weathermen sure as hell got that wrong. It wasn't suppose to start until after the game. It looked like it might be a boring game with both teams having to punt several times. With 4 minutes left in the first quarter the Bills scored a touchdown. Up 7-0. The second quarter wasn't much more exciting. More punts. The Bills kicked two field goals and remnants of last season snuck in. Until of course we ran a punt back for a touchdown. Whuuu huuuu Roscoe Parrish!! The Seahawks scored a TD and the half ended 21-7.
During half time Kevin Everett received the George Halas Award. The award is given to a player who overcomes adversity. You may remember Everett was hurt in the home opener last year and there was fear he'd never walk again. It took awhile, but he is walking but will never play the game again. He still has a long way to go, but it could have been much much worse. The sun also came out here and there between the mountainous clouds.
The second half proved to a bit more exciting. Maybe it was the fake field goal that lead to a touchdown. Maybe it was the fact that the Bills scored 34 and they haven't done that in years. Either way it was a good game, and a good time. Of course, no lack of food either. My brother in law made chicken parm, and there were ribs too. Always food... and yes we did graze all day!!
All the excitement of opening weekend and the news seems to be all about Tom Brady. Adam Schefter is reporting he is done for the season. He hurt his knee in today's game and I've not heard anything definite about how serious except for this article. We'll have to wait and see what the team reports later. Though it would/could help my Bills I hate to see anyone get injured, let alone be injured and out of for the season.
I wasn't home long and I got up to go the 'powder room.' Staring me in face was the most beautiful scene. Ahhhh that bathroom window has done me justice this year for sure. I just went and got my camera and took several pictures. I didn't want it to disappear. How unreal to have the sunset glowing on the clouds.. or would that be making the clouds glow.... have the moon, and blue sky. My sister pointed out the face in the clouds on the first one. Off to the right, can you see it? Red sky at night...........
Well all in all it was a good day and a good weekend. I can't believe it's back to work tomorrow. GRRR I hate Monday's!!! I hope everyone had a good one.

Stunning pictures! The face is surely there. We missed the game. Rob was at the gun/coin show. I probably would have loved the game, but forgot. Hope this Monday is not too stressful for you. I've been retired too long, I guess. Monday is just another day for me. Blessings, Penny http://journals.aol.com/firestormkids04/FromHeretoThere
