At Doright Manor we go to bed early. Studly Doright, my husband of 44.5 years, hasn’t retired yet and he rises early each day to get a jump on things before the rest of the work force shows up,
Last night, though, we stayed up to watch the Tampa Bay/New Orleans playoff game, and didn’t get to bed until ten eastern time. Basically that’s midnight in our world, and now I have a football hangover; although, perhaps it’s a true hangover given all the wine I drank while watching not only the late game, but also the earlier game between Kansas City and Cleveland.
Two great games featuring four of the best quarterbacks in the league were impossible for us to turn off. I have the luxury of sleeping in and staying home and working on a sequel to Mayhem at the Happy Valley Motor Inn and Resort, while poor Studly had to get up early to reattach himself to the old grindstone.
It’s a good thing he’s married to me—I can nap for both of us this afternoon. He has no idea what I sacrifice for him. I’d better nap for twice as long just to be on the safe side.

Peace, people!

I had friends texting me the score of the Saints game last night. I read it this morning. I’m in the Panhandle on Central time, but it was past my bedtime. 🤣 Enjoy your nap!

Normally football does, too, but I didn’t want to go to the store.

Wine? How’s the hangover? I thought you would say beer Leslie. Anyway why don’t you have some more? I sure feel bad for Studly!

I felt sorry for him, too! Poor guy. Of course he seldom drinks, so at least he wasn’t hungover.
