My Big Outing!!!
As I told some of you all last week, yesterday was my Senior in college son's final home football game. With my doc's permission and stipulations, off I went with the best of intentions to follow his rules. At 9am we began Leg 1-the one hour drive to #2 son's college for a 15 minute walk and potty break-A OK; At 12 o'clock we arrive at our final destination amid a horrible Nor'easter. There goes the first failed plan, next potty break and a little "tailgate" party. Back from the field to my son's townhouse and 15 steps to his bathroom; OK not awful, so back to the stadium. The original rules contained a promise of sitting field-side in a chair and talking little walking breaks all day............LOL, the "best laid plans........"
I do my snail's walk into the stadium dressed like an Eskimo with an umbrella and guess what? Fifteen steps to reach field level!!!!
By now my DH and 6'1" baby son are at their wits end. Rather than freeze to death or be washed away in the mud slide building at ground level, up we go into the Covered Stadium area. Thirty steps later I reach the top and think if my legs don't die, my lungs just did. To make along story short, my chair gets toted up and I sit in front of the Press Box, like the Princess I am to watch them LOSE!!!! Oh well, I wouldn't have missed it for the world----the close to a 15 year career!
Little things we forget about our bodies do come back at times like these, but I guess I'll get over it. Climbed to my son's townhouse 3 times, But when the waitress at Applebee's proposed a table with HIGH barstools, my son's girlfriend, demand a cushy booth. We arrived home after a reverse stop at #2 son's school at 9:15pm and this little Princess crawled to bed. A benefit I haven't had since my TAV/BSO on Halloween, I slept for hours and hours straight, until 7:15 this am.
Today, my calves are crying and lower back aching, but oh well.............it's still raining here in NJ, so the couch is all mine........Hope everyone had a great weekend.......Doc visit Tuesday, we''ll see if he yells, but heck, I've been married 25 yrs and have 2 sons..........I can handle any man!

Nice to hear you didn't kill yourself in the process. Sorry they lost the game, but you had the best seat in the house.
Take care.
