Right or Wrong

I woke this morning and was shocked to see it was 9.45am!

Harley was still sound asleep and not bothered by the time.

Feeling offended that nobody in the house was concerned by my absence, I walked out of the bedroom to hear Adoring Husband quip “I was just about to come in to check your pulse!”

A bit late for that.

So I made my warm lemon water and took Harley out for his play.

By the time I returned indoors, AH was out the front mowing the lawns, so I filled a bowl with black seed grapes and parked my butt on the couch … my third favourite place to be.

I found a fluffy Netflix movie called “The Wrong Paris”, which I quite enjoyed. The male lead (Pierson Fode) was pretty hot. He’s been around for a while but obviously hasn’t sold his soul to the devil yet, so he’s not a huge star.

After the movie, I watched some lady’s golf. All I know is that nobody spoke English (except the commentators) and everything was written in Japanese (I think). There was a play off because two of the girls finished -10 and it only took one play off hole to decide the winner.

It was quite emotional!

From there I took Harley out for his afternoon play and began making the salads for dinner.

I only had 30 minutes til the footy started and I didn’t want to miss any of the game because it was my team, the Broncos, playing the number one team, the Raiders.

I made coleslaw, potato salad and a green salsa with cucumber, avocado, green capsicum, pear, spring onions, salt, white pepper and lemon juice. Yum.

Convincing AH to cook the snags on the barbecue at half time was a huge success, so I got to stay watching the footy.

And what a game!!!!

My team had two men in the sin bin in the second half and were losing 12-28 with 15 minutes to go. 

I admit that I had given up hope and was resigned to the fact that we would have to fight it out with AH’s team next week.

But Reece Walsh, one of the men sent to the sin bin, returned to the field on a mission. He almost single handedly scored enough points to draw with the Raiders 28-28, which took the game into extra time.

They played two halves of 5 minutes each, without scoring, which then meant Golden Point. The first team to score would win.

With 2 minutes to go, Ben Hunt, for the Broncos, attempted a field goal. The ball hit the right post and fell through between the posts to score the winning point.

That was such an intense game. I wish I could describe to you, all of the moments in the game that were defining, heart flipping, jaw dropping, eye opening and air gasping.

So happy that my team won 29-28!

Now I’m watching the final round of the BMW PGA Golf Championships and will probably, once again, fall asleep to the sound of club on ball.

It’s exhausting living vicariously on all the sporting fields/courses!

Nite all.
