As this weeks title depicts, I miss a lot of things since we bought this bar. Trust me, Life after bar leaves almost 0 time for anything family oriented. I try not to dwell on it too much, because this was my decision after all. I do try. I try to keep up with kids and games and parties. I most certainly almost always fail, but I DO try. As far as recreational time DURING work? Again, almost 0 time for that. I remember Jim once threw his hands up and said that he was pretty sure owning a bar with a TV meant that he would get to watch EVERY football game. HA! Never. Trust me, not only can we not watch, but we can't even listen. So for the Super Bowl this year I had a surprise up my sleeve. I had this great idea that if we had someone work for us during the game, we could maybe WATCH the game! It was perfect. I had Jim believing that it would be him and I working, and I kept asking him how much of the game we would actually be able to watch. The poor guy looked so miserable when he said probably none. So.....when Keely walked in and just got behind the bar, he was confused to say the least. He just looked at her, and pretty soon she said, "Jim you can go sit down." His reply was that he didn't know she was coming in to work. Her reply? "That's because it was a surprise!" He looked my way, and my smirk said it all. I forgot how fun it can be to sit and watch a whole entire football game!!! We all played FOOTBALLL B INGO, everyone got prizes. Did I mention lots of food!? First Super Bowl (or any) football game we've seen in it's entirety in about, oh, I'd say........4 years!!!! I remember thinking....I miss this........
