Football Sunday!!

Sunday, October 6, 2013

Today was a pretty normal Sunday.  Church, football.  That's it.  Football is still on, but it is boring, so I am on the pute filling in time and listening to TV with one ear.

I called DirecTV on FR about my Sunday Ticket not working correctly and they were gonna send me a new receiver box.  Okay, fine.  No biggie.  We got ours in 2004, and technology has changed a bit since then.  They sent it OVERNIGHT and we got it yesterday!  How cool is that?  We hooked it up before leaving for the evening, but, of course, can't check out Sunday Ticket until today.  And it worked!  It all worked!  I was so tickled.  (I know, I'm too easy...)  Also, when we got in the box to get the receiver & all the bits and pieces out, there was a phone cord in there.  After getting the box all plugged in and trying to 'fix' the remote, it wasn't working, so I had to call them.  sigh  She walked me through that - they had to activate it.  While I had them on the phone, I asked her about getting incoming calls to show up on the TV.  She asked if a phone cord came in the package, and I told her yes.  She said plug it in to the DirecTV box, then to the landline.  BOOM.  It works, too!!!   That is super wicked!!  (Yeah, I know, I'm easy...)  LOL

Anyway, today, MY Bengals whupped up on Tom Brady and the Patriots.  The Patriots did NOT score until less than 2 minutes to go in the first half, and then just a Field Goal, not a Touchdown.  How bout that?  Mr. Never-loses failed.  hahahahahahahahahahaha  I loved it.  We held them the whole second half, too.  They only got one more Field Goal the whole game.  We beat them 13-6.  They tried to come back, but the heavens opened (omg - JUST what the PATRIOTS needed - ask the announcers) and poured down the rain for about 20 minutes.  Just long enough to screw up most of the 4th quarter.  It was thrilling.

We had gone to Bob Evans today for lunch, and I had the Sunshine Skillet for my choice, with, of course, two slices of banana nut bread.  They brought me biscuits erroneously, and I gave them to Ron to go with his breakfast.  Wellllllll, at the end, he left one, and I was bad, and busted it open, spread ORANGE MARMALADE on just the top half, and enjoyed that, too.  It's hard to find OM in those little jelly packets, and that was a real treat.

For supper, at 7, we decided to make chili for supper.  At 7!!  We are dorks!  It was finally done just before 8, and we each had a bowl, then turned it off, so we'll probably have that again tomorrow night, too.  Good things chili tastes even better the second night!

When I put my food in myfitnesspal, I was under on calories for the day (and I admit, I didn't put in the half biscuit and the jelly - I can't find the jelly packets on there), but was under enough that even if I added them, I would still be under!  I am okay with that.  So today is getting 5 stars for food.  Zero, of course, for exercise - it's Sunday!
