France win the World cup. Time to get my life back. No more games for a few weeks. Then the regular season begins in most countries. Going to be a lot of tired players out there. Not much of a break for them during the Summer months.

I must be the only one that didn't watch the world cup..
The Irish under 20 relay team. Shows how much Ireland is changing. Heck take advantage of some amazing African runners. Once they become Irish citizens they qualify to run for Ireland. Guess which one was born in Ireland? Give you a hint. Her name is Molly Scott. The sad thing is there is not much cash put into track and field here in Ireland. These girls could go a long way. They were unlucky to only finish second in the final. In the semi-final they left everybody in their dust. Future talent if invested in. Or else they will be let go to waste. Just like many before them.

The sad thing is that being second doesn’t count for anything. Being second doesn’t matter. If it were up to me, being second would matter.
We had rain for the first time in 40 days yesterday. Not bad for Ireland.

We get rain in between showers as a rule. Is a water shortage at the moment. Restrictions in place. That is what happens when a heatwave hits Ireland. I say heatwave, I mean for us. 30C. Which in US terms is about mid 70's. Rare for this country.

Yesterday Trump met with Putin, and claimed there was no Russian interference in our 2016 election and simultaneously says if there was any, it benefited Clinton and not him. A watershed moment, as this directly contradicts the US intelligence agency community's consensus, and many Trump supporters I know are realizing Trump is taking us further down a dangerous road. So that is nice, maybe eventually the minority of people who support Trump will turn on him and damage control can begin.
Another Summer wasted
Turning cold here already.

Knitted runners? Can just picture some old dear with her knitting needles out knitting a pair of runners. I am guessing they are not for wet days. Had a pair in my hands today. No weight in them at all. I would guess they would be comfortable. But how much could they hold up to? Probably rip very easily.

August is almost gone. Yes!!!
People who live in the south will know exactly what I mean, no further explanation needed.
Come on cooler weather. Get here. Now lol. I'm so ready. I'm so through with 100 + degree afternoons.
You're going to lose people in your life, and realize that no matter how much time you spent with them or how often you told them you loved them, it will never seem like it was enough.
Hug the ones you love.
Pope Francis was stopped by a woman in the Pheonix Park over the weekend and she begged him to help with her 19 year old son's hearing. He looked at the young man and walked towards him. He placed both hands over his ears, closed his eyes and said a beautiful prayer. The pope took his hands off the lads ears and smiled "how's your hearing now my son? "
The lad replied " I haven't a fuckin clue, Im not in court til Wednesday"
