Fall is here and it's my favorite time of year for a couple of reasons.
1. Cool weather is on the way. I love being able to open my windows at night and burrow under layers of covers.
2. Christmas is right around the corner which is by far my favoritist holiday. I actually love it more than my own birthday.
3. Fall is the perfect time to make and enjoy chili, fires, and hot coffee or tea while curling up with a good book.
4. Football season is here!!!
Anyone that knows me knows that I ♥ football! It's by far the most exciting sport to watch and I love being the football athletic trainer at COC. I love the excitement of the game as well as the pressure to get athletes back quickly. I love being able to push the athletes to be better as well as the thrill of being on the sidelines to witness a brutal hit or a perfect spiral pass for a touchdown. Could do without the smell of sweat filling my nostrils, particularly when I'm standing down wind, but I thrive on the anticipation and excitement of each game. This year, our team is projected to go far. Right now we're 4-0. I'm nervous with anticipation each moring as I get up to get ready for the game. I arrive hours before game time to ensure everything is perfectly prepared. I strive to reduce the anxiety for what are already highly stressed coaches. I pray just before each game that my athletes will be protected from all serious injuries and that I would have wisdom in dealing with each one, and then I endure the entire spectrum of emotions as I stand on the sidelines for 3 hours, watching and helping my team to what I always hope is a successful outcome.
