Ipswich Town are enjoying their first Premier League season in 22 years and they are on the cusp of being in the thick of things as the calendar flips to 2025.
This is what any club could ask for. A chance. With a population of 133,384 they are equivalent to the size of Abbotsford British Columbia Canada. This is why the EPL is so special. The impact of promotion and relegation have a lot of positive effects to the economy.
This is the first year in a few years where I have watched the EPL closely. My schedule has freed up enough on the weekends where I can watch the games.
I'm blessed to be in that position. I'm going to be starting something new soon in 2025 but I'm trying to think of all the gratitude I have.
Here are a few things that I have going for me.
I have renewed my mortgage on my condo.
I am coaching Grade 9 basketball.
I have different options ahead of me in 2025.
I believe that I'll never be homeless.
I have been able to manage risk in my investments. Will have more on this later. I want to let people know that risky stocks isn't so bad if you have a bit of breathing space in your bank account.
I have found a good thing to look forward to with Ipswich Town soccer games. The Newcastle game feels like a make or break game with their schedule coming up. I'm nervous but at the same time I'm soaking in and reflecting on my accomplishments in my past and feeling very content.
