I am sure the tennis tournament director is glad the weekend is over. There were 180 people that signed up to play, 52 more than last year. At the college they only have 4 indoor courts and 8 outside courts (with no lights). There was a rain delay all three days of the tournament. I had a lot of fun and learned that I don't move as fast as I use to and that my timing does not come back as quickly. I lost both my singles and doubles matches but certainly made my opponents work for a lot of the points. Because of the rain delays, the consolation matches (which were suppose to take place) ended up being cancelled. So, I am ready to get geared up for another tournament in Nov. Maybe then more of my game will be falling into place. I hope to also figure out my weekly schedule and sign up for a winter league. With winter being 6 months out of the year, sure wish they had more indoor courts. Because of the high demand, courts for non-members are $30 an hour! Year memberships are $550, not too much less than a season ski pass!
The boys are doing well. I think I have deciphered another of J's words. Whenever he wants something I hear a very high pitched "mine" of sorts. Not exactly one of the first words I want him to learn.
B is excited about another day of preschool. He is really getting into the mode of having conversations while he is playing by himself. It is so funny to listen to him and the things he says. Maybe sometime this week I can listen more closely and share them.
Off to get them ready for bed!
