Winning and Losing
As I was making coffee this morning, my 14 year old came up and gave me a high 5. The Avalanche won last night, so joy abounds in our house today! She’ll probably still be giving high 5’s this evening because the thrill of victory lasts quite a bit longer than the agony of defeat. Since this is a down year for the Avalanche, the agony has outnumbered the thrills, but since the thrills linger longer, it’s pretty much a wash. I’d hate to see the mood in our house if the Avalanche were basement dwellers in the hockey standings. But then again, I’m not sure I could handle the excitement if they were on track to win the Stanley Cup! This win some, lose some season seems just about right!
