Joan hasn't been out of the house for four days. So, I wrapped her up warmly, and took her to Sowas for coffee and cake.
Upon returning home, we watch the latest highlight videos of the NFL and college football playoffs. We were thrilled to see Indiana University beat Oregon to qualify for the Championship game next week.
For me, it was an extraordinary event. You have to understand, growing up in Indiana, that university was only known for many years as a basketball school. Football was never mentioned. Now, in the last two years, with a new coaches and players, they were ranked #1 in all polls. They went from the bottom of the NCAA football teams to the top.
The second game we watched was the Wildcard game between our Chicago Bears and their arch rival, the Green Bay Packers.
In the first half of the game, they were behind 21-3. It didn't look very promising.
However, in the second half of the game, they played much better than the Packers, and were able to move closer to the championship game. The final score was 31-27. So, both of our teams won.
