The Tigers Too?

11:50 pm

Don’t look now, but the Detroit Tigers are undefeated! They are 5-0, playing great in every aspect of the game. They’re not just barely winning either, they’re averaging more than 3 times as many runs than their opponents, 39-12.

The success of the Tigers joins the great seasons the Pistons and Red Wings are having. That means every Detroit team that’s playing right now is #1 in their sport!! So when does football season start?

Time to Make Time

9:32 pm

Man it seemed like no one wanted to be at work today. I don’t know if it was because of the time change this past weekend or what. I was a little tired myself, that’s for sure. It also doesn’t help that the weather got cold again. But I was happy when I got home.

After taking a little nap, I went for a drive to relax a little and enjoy the longer daylight. Now that I’m back I feel much better. For about the last year or so, taking a drive has been a good way for me to relieve stress. I forget about whatever’s on my mind and enjoy the scenery on some quiet roads. It’s amazing how much better it is than trying to relax in front of the TV or computer!

It also made me think that I’ve gotten away from doing other relaxing things that I used to do, like drawing, biking, and fishing. And even though I never really got seriously into it, I’d like to get into photography. It’s always been a goal of mine, but I’ve seemed to keep myself “too busy” to take the time to enjoy it. Sometimes you have to tell yourself to slow down so you can make time for the things you really like. Besides, a good hobby is the best way to relax and get away from it all!
