Baseball vs Football vs Soccer vs Wine Tasting

For the first time in years, we are having a hard time deconflicting sporting events across different sports instead of just teams.

It is a good problem to have.

Today we are faced with soccer vs wine tasting. OK--so wine tasting may not be a sport, but it does take up time when planned. Two of the grandsons, Ethan and Jax, have soccer games this morning followed by a trip to Annapolis for a planned event tasting Southern Italian wines.

At least there isn't time to close the pool!

Tomorrow, Sunday, about 4pm is a catastrophe. The Cowboys play, the Redskins play, and more importantly, the Orioles are facing a huge challenge in Oakland. They fumbled the baseball a bit last evening and lost only their eighth one-run game of the season.

I am almost wishing for Monday to escape the completing schedules insanity.

I may just have enough TV's and inputs to cover all of the events.

At least the Ravens play in an open time slot in my life.

Somewhere in there the lawn needs to get mowed, groceries purchased, and some relaxation and book reading need to be accomplished.

I love weekends!
