I'm gutted that I can no longer commit to the group the way I was able to that first year, building that scene was so rewarding.
Knowing that Calgary is now part of the international football world, including transfers, is such a satisfying feeling. The Cavs have really been a fun highlight for my life in the last five years.

Ped - this is not the advice you're probably expecting, but try saying 'no' more often. In fact, a lot more - including to to these fairweather people. Not only is it more honest, it's a major stress reliever to your mental well-being. You're not obligated in life to cater to other people like a floormat. Once I started saying 'no' more often to almost everyone and freed up time and obligation from others, the quality of my daily life significantly improved.
