Strange Sunday

I have to say that it was very weird last night to be facing a Sunday evening without the NFL. Every Sunday since early September has involved me watching, listening to, or using the internet to at least keep up with, the sporty scores from over the water in America. So now, and for the next six months at least, my focus and attention will have to be somewhere else, and that will take some getting used to. And last night was particularly problematic, with the Super Bowl having taken place 7 days before. There was such a build-up and excited anticipation last weekend - even in the moments when I was still convincing myself I wouldn't watch it - so yesterday felt really rather flat.
I suppose the good thing is that I am already noticing the evenings getting lighter, so it won't be too long before I can fill that void with after-tea walks, or cycling, or playing outside with my boys. And in the meantime, I'm sure I can find some weird little obsession or other that will keep me busy and keep me entertained on a Sunday evening.
