the mad sports man

 End of the month has arrived.  Felt like it took forever to get here, yet it's here now.  Chase Elliott won his first Nascar championship, NFL been going on getting through rescheduled games thanks to one or two teams getting covid 19, hockey trying to return (some are going and others got suspended), and Saskatchewan got a serious dump of snow. December will fly by like it usually does. Christmas has that effect.

 Yiye.  A month to Christmas already.  Tomorrow is Thanksgiving state side.  World juniors is scheduled to start Christmas day.  Hard to say if it will be held.  December isn't that far away.  Who knows how the next month will go.

 I should be listening to the Grey Cup.  Instead I've seen a lot of other Grey Cup memories and I am realizing how bad I miss the CFL.  How bad I miss being at a CFL game.  How bad I miss interacting with other fans, the players and the cheer team.  I just want to be in a CFL stadium to watch a game. I hate covid 19.

 While coming home from my dad and stepmoms place (celebrating her birthday early), I noticed a few houses had their Christmas lights on. Got the idea I should get some shots of houses with their Christmas lights on.  With the snow on the ground already, it might be a good idea to do so.  Nice way to spend a few evenings.

 On this day, thank those who are serving now, thank those who have served, and honor those veterans who are not alive and died during the wars.

 Tammara Thibeault left the Lima Pan American Games with a bronze.  Few months back she was told she would be upgraded to a silver.  Today she got her silver. The woman she lost to in the semis had her medal revoked after a lengthy doping investigation.  Doesn't pay to cheat.

 Wow a lot of Saskatchewan got slammed with snow.  Prince Albert got 35cm, while Swift Current and Moose Jaw got between 40 and 50 cm.  Add some wind and there were some serious drifts.  The roads are junk. Oh yeah there are some civic elections happening.  Swift Current and I think Saskatoon had to move theirs for Friday.  Eep.  How was your weekend?

 It's been a week.  Gained back all the weight I lost. (Fell of that horse hard). Meanwhile it has been a nice week. Went to check the mail and there was a chill today.  Supposed to get a bunch of snow this weekend. 10 to 15cm Saturday, 15 to 20cm Sunday, and 1cm Monday morning.  Monday is the city election.  That ought to be fun.
