Football season has begun and so has the endless driving from one training session to another. Games begin this Friday night, and while I am partial to doing nothing on a Friday night, I far prefer night games to weekend morning/middle of the day games, that’s for sure.

Once you are settled in your own place, you can start to set up car-pooling for the football so that you take it in turns with other parents to do the driving?

That would be ideal!

Our sports start again…and after a year of having no driving around, I have mixed feelings! (happy that sport is back, not looking forward to the time spent in car).

That pretty much sums up my feelings!

I’m thankful only one of my kids plays sport now and it’s all local so he gets himself there, though we still have to pick him up. Actually it’s picking him up from work 4-5 nights a week, anywhere between 10pm and midnight I find irritating.
I liked Firefly Lane but it’s been years since I read the book. I haven’t started watching The Stand yet.

Those late work pick up runs are the worst. My son had those before we moved, 11.30 pm on Friday and Saturday nights. He’s looking for a job here now so that might pop up again too.
I’m seeing a definite pattern in comment threads on posts about Firefly Lane that those enjoying it either haven’t read the book or they read it a long time ago so aren’t making as many comparisons.

I’m watching The Stand too and really enjoying it!

I just finished episode 8 last night, so haven’t been waiting as long as you, but there’s only 1 episode left isn’t there? Is there going to be another season or does it conclude in the next episode?

I think it concludes. And it should drop tomorrow!
