Happy Friday Night Fellas :
I have been away from the board for a few weeks due to a very ill 95 year old Mother. Guys, be careful with your parents as they age.
I moved my mom into my house about a year after my Dad passed away roughly 15 years ago. I have never been married ( engaged three times ), no children. I saw her just about every day after work and the gym as we lived only 15 minutes from each other. Losing my Dad was hard on her despite having a strong social network. At the time, I just figured if Mrs. Right came along, we'd have to figure it out. Besides, both my parents did so much for my brothers and I, why not give back to a lady that did so much for me. And, I was in a spot where I could do it.
Yeah, you guys know me pretty well. If anyone can make a short story long, it is me. Anyway, mom had some nausea and mild flu like symptoms roughly a month ago. When that passed, I thought it was over. I didn't insist on checking for a UTI until two weeks later. Mom likely had an untreated UTI for up to 3 weeks before it was confirmed and antibiotics were provided. It took her down hard. There is still a ways to go, but maybe some light at the end of the tunnel.
I am posting this so those of you who might have thought I was hiding due to the Buffs Profound success, pretty good line play ( both sides of the ball ), and the "fact" ( really my opinion ) that they are improving as the year goes forward. Yeah, I griped a lot early in the year, but I am HAPPY TO BE WRONG about this teams grit, toughness, and very good coaching.. I have enjoyed watching this team win more than their share of battles in the trenches. QBSS still holds the ball too long, but he is one tough QB and accurate as hell.
If you don't see me posting much, it's not because I fear some well deserved, "...told ya so..."!
Lord, I hope I didn't jinx the Buffs for tomorrows game. Now, on to the Conference Championship game. Job well done by the entire Buff Staff, so far.
