My grandson has set up a family Fantasy Football League. While I was visiting, he got me all set up with an account and showed me a little bit about the website. He has been sending messages to the group as he gets everyone rallied and excited for the league to begin. Yesterday was draft day. I had no idea what I was doing. I mean, I know about football and have been a fan and watched my favorite team. But this whole draft thing was intense. If you really follow preseason and the players, I am sure you would have an advantage. On the website, each player has a list of statistics. I wasn’t sure what they all meant either. And then there is the art of picking. I just went methodically in order of the positions it told me I needed. Really, I just looked at stats and picked what looked like good numbers. I knew a few players I wanted, but they were scooped up before I got to them. Today there was a lot of bantering and potential trading going on. Even though I am so far away from them, it felt like being there. It was a lot of fun and a good distraction.
I Found God today in being able to enjoy family time even though I am far away.
