As some of you may know, my family is not really into sports. Before my little brother, Crawford, came along, none of us had much athletic ability or interest. Mediocre gymnastics and ice skating was about the most athletic we got.

And then I married Philip: the biggest sports fan in the universe.

It was certainly an adjustment, working our lives around football and basketball season, but after nearly four years, I’m consigned to the fact that this is my new life. In fact, there are some sports that I’m starting to enjoy….although at the moment none are really coming to mind…

Anyway, we were planning a trip to Phoenix a few months ago to visit Philip’s parents, and Philip mentioned he’d really like to take me to a Diamondback’s game. I said sure, but I’m sort of embarrassed to say I didn’t even know what sport we were going to be seeing. It turned out to be baseball.

This past week was the trip, and the game, and it turns out I didn’t hate it. I actually enjoyed it. I’ve come to the conclusion that sports really aren’t so bad when you’re at an actual game; you’re in the cheering crowd, there’s the smell of hot dogs, and you get to sing “Take Me Out To The Ball Game.” I still hate watching sports on TV, but give a girl a break — I’m trying.


Oh, and Peanut got a tiny DBack’s hat, which really made everything so much better.

    Sports *are* more fun if you can see them live. If I have to go to a game, I'd much rather go when I know the players. Otherwise, please just don't bother me about them. Thank goodness my husband doesn't care about them, either. (Diamondbacks = baseball. Who knew? lol)

    Peanut sure is cute, though.

  2. Such cute picutres!! I'm glad you had fun 😉

    Hey. You can play poker for real money. And this is not a myth. Hundreds of thousands of players around the world today bet and win real money in different rooms. But even though today it’s not enough to surprise many with such an opportunity, many players still have questions regarding this game. For example, I’m wondering how to play here https://www.score88poker.bid/mobile.php profitably? How to choose a reliable room? What percentage of the bet to give the poker room?

    Before you visit the game, i advice you to choose a right bookie and make a bet at https://topbetting.in/, for example. This will make the game much more interesting and exiting for you. And, maybe, profitable, who knows.

    IT’S A GOOD POST FOR A BALL GAME. BUT ITS GAME IS NOT GOOD FOR ME, BECAUSE WE CAN’T EARN MORE MONEY IN THIS GAME. SO I HAVE CHOSEN A GAMBLING GAME BECAUSE IT’S A GOOD SOURCE TO EARN MONEY. BUT BEFORE PLAYING, WE SHOULD CHECK FINANCIAL LIMITS WHILE GAMBLING AND SHOULD GO ON A GOOD PLATFORM. IF YOU HAVE INTERESTED IN THIS GAME, SO YU CAN CHECK THIS LINK. WITH THE HELP OF THIS LINK, YOU WILL KNOW INVESTMENT-RELATED INSTRUCTIONS. BUT IT DEPEND ON YOUR CHOICE AND INTEREST

    When it comes to playing online slots, there are some things you should be aware of:

    Do your research and choose a slot machine with a good RTP or payout per player, percentage and volatility at gclub slot
    Try the demo version of the game and if you like it, start playing.
    Set a budget limit to manage your funds so you don’t lose more than you want. When you reach the limit, stop playing for a while.
    Keeping your budget in mind, bet on as many paylines as you see fit. If you bet on more than one payline, you can get more wins.
    After winning a big prize, players stop playing so as not to lose money.
