Making time for down time is a part of living a charmed life that we sometimes forget, because life is just so busy.
This Sunday we're gonna be planted on the sofa watching football, so this week I took a little time to make sure I took care of a few things to make it extra special....
Television remote. Check.
Team jersey. Check.
Rock n' Roll Buddy on the sofa cushion next to me to call the penalties before the ref's do. Check.
At a glance it looks like we've got it all covered, but wait. There's nothing too extraordinary here so far. (Okay, the fact that Ralph can call the penaties and announce the plays before the ref's is pretty impressive, although not necessarily considered charming, except to me.)
We're having the Sewing Queen, and a couple of Patriot's fan-friends over to watch the Seahawks dominate play the Patriots tomorrow, and I ordered some fabulous party accessories from my most favorite thrifty party online place. (Oh, I am sure you have shopped here, haven't you? If not, you need to check them out. Lot's of great stuff, and lot's of the time it's free shipping.)
Just look at the goodies I got, for next to nuthin', will ya?
Football shaped paper plates, and Seahawks napkins (Hey, we're the home team after all.) I also got some too-cute-to-pass-up football lanterns, which I will also use on Superbowl Sunday. (along with the rest of the rest of my stash of football shaped paper plates!)
We'll be grillin' burgers at halftime, and these fun accessories wil make the entire meal more fun.
What are you doing for fun this weekend?
Being a native Washingtonian, and a former Seahawks season ticket holder, I am hoping the game is televised here on the East Coast. But, no matter what, I'll pretend like I'm a guest in your lovely home rooting for the Seahawks!! Go team!!

As a long time Dallas Cowboys fan I looked forward to watching them play today...unfortunately they didn't win but I enjoyed their effort and a little relaxing during the game. Your football day looks so fun!!!! Jeni
