Day 20/21: Weekend Update

First things first: Hi Glendy! :-) I'm very happy to see you here, and even more excited to be seeing you tomorrow afternoon!

Big surprise: I am discovering it hard to say "no" to tennis. Seriously, who knew trying to take it easy could be such a challenge?

My weekend plan was to play tennis on Saturday with Laurie and then give it a rest for the rest of the weekend. Maybe do a bit of yard work, catch up on a book I started about a month ago, and pay a few bills.

Then my phone started ringing with tennis people wanting to play. Out of the woodwork they sprang! The weather today and yesterday was so incredibly perfect for outdoor tennis. Ultimately, I succumbed without much arm-twisting. In all, I ended up playing a couple matches both days, including doubles this evening with my new partner, Suzy O. We seemed to play really well together, which doesn't always happen -- so that was a nice bonus.

Plus I was still able to reorganize my closet (which sadly looked like a bomb had gone off in it!), read a few chapters of my book, do some yard work, grocery shop, walk the dogs, and even grab a quick nap.

Yikes, tomorrow is really busy. I just took a look at my schedule for Monday and realized I am seriously overscheduled with 6 hours of court time. At this late hour, not much I can do -- it's a little late and rude to cancel now. I play at 7:30am, 9am, 5pm, and again at 9pm. Plus I have my first 1 hour tennis conditioning lesson in the mix as well. I will just need to draw upon my super powers -- wish me luck!
