Wow!  I said that out loud when I read the result of Cortney's game last night.  That was my first thing when I got into the office.  I had slept in some because our alarm is turned off because Sheila is done with her work for the year (just that work, not work itself!)  The score was 39 to 37!  Way too close.  Now maybe it was an easy 2 point win or maybe it was a hard 2 point win; I won't know until I hear from the Porters.  But it certainly was more competitive than the one we went to on Tuesday.  As for my night, I fretted through the BYU game until finally they turned it around in a tsunami of defense in the 4th quarter.  Oh yes, Cortney's line was 5 2 4 2  (that's 5 points [1- 3], 2 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals)  Not bad for a close game like that.       When I did get up this morning I was actually excited about the work before me.  This end of year situation is really weird and my mindset is quite unsettled, but there is an anticipation about it all that is kind a fun.  But I know that I can't just let down and go completely holiday.  There is so much that I have to get down.  When appropriate I will 'party hardy', but I cannot waste the time that I need to devote to the work that needs to be done, and especially the pondering that right now seem to be the most important task of these last couple of weeks of 2012 (now that the world is still alive and moving forward!!!)
