Another Wednesday, another match and another loss!

How about those girls in red!  The bottom picture was taken in 2008 and the top in 2016.
My tennis team did win one of three matches on Wednesday and there were no blow outs so that was a plus.  I and my teammate lost 3-6 and 4-6 on court 1, we won court 2 in a match tie breaker and one of the two sets on court 3 went to a tie breaker so really not so bad.  I played with the best player on the team but he is not used to playing doubles so it will be a work in progress.  He will be gone for the rest of the fall and in the remaining 5 matches I will mix up players as I have said in the past this is kind of spring training for the winter.  Winter, it will be a challenge too but I will try to get the best pairings together and try harder to win some matches.  All in all it has been, it is and it will be fun.
I am really trying hard to change my eating habits and lose weight.  Five days and some weight has come off but I have felt it on the court, a bit sluggish.  I quit after an hour yesterday as I just did not feel well.  It does not help either as our weather has been very warm.  It has been in the mid 80s when we play.
I finished Terry's calendar for 2018 and I think it turned out great.  It ended up being 102 pages, 51 pieces of paper, 39 pictures and a lot of work but it was worth it.  I ended up making double of everything so I have one too.  The pictures on the front of our 2018 calendars are below.  I had to do something so we could tell them apart.

It is hard to believe that we are less than 2 weeks from Thanksgiving.  Terry and I may just keep a low profile on Thanksgiving and then crank it up starting the Saturday after as Brian/Tammy arrive for a 5 day visit.  We may just save our turkey day for when they are here.  We did invite a couple and a guy over but they both had plans already.  Maybe a good reason for me to TRY and keep on my eating plan for a few extra days.
Enough for now.  My FP is still hot so I may just relax for a bit and read a book to start the day.  Nothing like relaxing after one gets out of bed!!!  Need I say that retirement is a full time job!!!
