Why do I still do this – well I’d give up the day job but I haven’t got one.

All this has made me appreciate that I am getting back to the basics again (yet again).

I am back to appreciating the little things again. It is a Saturday morning – I am lying on the sofa for first time in a little while – I have no Sky Sports fantasy football team to up date later on because I am not playing the game this season – as amazing as it is.

I have the option of watching Arsenal Vs Nottingham Forest later on – as it is on TNT Sports or whatever it is called – I have the option of getting 5 Live later on and watching Match of the Day tonight.

I am back to reality – even if this site has fantasy elements to it.

I think having the football back on gives me a bit of structure again – in a curious way – even if it just by checking the scores, putting Sky Sports News on or taking in football podcasts (on YouTube).

Well, this is lovely.

I’ll see how long this lasts for before I get up or go for a walk or something. I am back to feeling calmness, a connection with something and to utter composure.

I wonder who’ll start for Arsenal then.
