A fun surprise

A chair saver Mom made and gave to her niece Ruth Gergerson

We received a package in the mail yesterday, yes Sunday!  It was something Mom made and gave to her niece Ruth who was her flower girl in Mom and Dad's wedding.  Ruth is in her upper 90's and her daughter Erlene recently moved her to a nursing home after her mom had lived with her for many years.  Erlene said she is going through her mom's things and this was something her mom dearly loved but she could not bring an easy chair to the home so Erlene thought I may like it.  Ruth loved Mom and often had wonderful things to say about her.  I am so thankful, it is a neat reminder of Mom.  The bill is just to show how large it is.
We play an away tennis match today against the team that is at the bottom of the standings so I am hoping for a sweep of the 3 matches.  One of my best players is not available but next Friday is even worse as several of my top players will not be able to play against the #2 team.   I mentioned that to our pro and he said it will show what kind of coach I am, not so sure about that.  Anyway it is what it is and we will see when the week is finished.  I think the purpose of tennis is to have fun?  After Friday we have a bye next Monday and then there will only be 2 matches left.
Terry and I went out to eat last night with some friends who have a summer home in Baraboo WI.  We intended to enjoy a hog roast only to find that it was in the afternoon and was over at 5:00 and we arrived at 6:15!  Maybe another time.  We did stay and eat.  Terry shared our dilemma with the host and she agreed to give us the "early bird special menu" which is from 4:30-6:00 and a bit less than the evening one.  The food is always good at this restaurant.  I think it was only the third time we have eaten out in the last many months.
No, I should be finished.  I did have my Kona FP this morning as I do that on match days.  I really think it is the difference in winning and losing!!!
