Oh my!!!!!!!

I know, this picture was taken a few years ago BUT my story today is about tennis and this is the best I could do.  My team took ONE court of the three yesterday.  It was the first court we had won from Country Creek since we moved up to 3.0.  BUT the winning court was NOT mine.  However I think I had the most fun ever on the court.  To give some idea of what happened.  Court #3 lost and came over to near our court while we were still in the first set! We play 2 sets and if the score is 1-1 we then go into a 10 point match tie breaker.  Court #2 went into a match tie breaker and won.  After their match they came over to watch and we were early into our second set.  Most matches are over in less than one and a half hours.  We hit our first ball a couple of minutes before 1:30 and it ended a bit after 4:00!  So we lost but I was excited about our play and it was FUN.  We took the first set 7-5.  The second set ended 6-6 so it went to a 7 point tie breaker which we lost.  We then went into a 10 point match tie breaker which we ended up on the short end 8-10.  This was against a first court team that had pretty much walked over us twice in each of the last 2 years so I felt in the end we won!  A loss is a loss but then there are times that a loss is kind of a win as well.  My play---I made my share of unforced errors but I felt I also made some great put aways and was very pleased with how I played.  I would say that IF I could play at that level every match we would have mostly wins.  Of course Ron, my partner, played great and that always helps "for sure".  End of tennis for this morning!

I do play this morning at 7:30.  I THINK my achy body will be OK.  I was up at 4:40 this morning so my body may tell me to take a 45 minute nap this afternoon.  Terry and I have NOTHING going in terms of appt or meetings so maybe I can finish the book I started a couple of days ago.  OH, we do have to do some work with our medical coverage as it may be a good idea to switch groups.  We have until early December to do that but better early than late.

I had the next to last of the frozen breakfast sandwiches this morning.  I have become so darn lazy with breakfast.  The frozen is not nearly as good as fresh but it is so so easy!  FP you started my day on an UP note.
