23rd Excerpt From My Original Golf Diary

    The regular season for our volleyball team is over.  We lost to P.V. tonight.  I am so proud of my JV team that took them to the limit, losing in the third set with a score of 13-15.  We had a very successful season, my JV team, ending up 11 and 6 overall.  Not sure if I will ever coach volleyball again, but I had a blast coming back to coach these past three years.  And, it's not over yet.  Varsity starts the district tournament on Tuesday.

    On to golf...
    
    In this excerpt, I comment on Jack Nicklaus's My Story.  He has incredible advice.  No wonder he was so successful throughout his career.      


    Jack Nicklaus’ My Story is long.  I still haven’t finished it, and I read both Payne Stuart books in between.  Jack is just not...

I Am Mike Wazowski

    So, I never checked the scores after day one.  I figured it didn’t matter, and I really didn’t want to know anyway.  I knew I must have been in pretty good shape, though, since I was teeing off with the second to last group of the entire tournament.
    When it was all over, I knew I hadn’t won or come even close.  Greg had played better on day two.  Daniel and Terry had played better on day one, both shooting an 83.  When I looked, though, I was pleasantly surprised. 
    I had what I will call my “Mike Wazowski” moment.  Although I had not placed, or was even close to the winning score of 153 with my 175, I realized I was in the Championship Flight.  I have never been in the Championship Flight before...ever. 
    So, when Mike Wazowski sees himself on the cover of a magazine, and his face is covered with the Monsters Inc. logo, and when everyone is looking at him in a forlorn way, and they are getting ready to tell him how sorry they are, and then when he starts to say something that sounds like he is going to be angry or sad because his face is covered, and he says instead, “I’m...on..the cover of a magazine!” 
    Well, that’s how I reacted.
    Although, I said, “I’m...in..the Championship Flight!”

Club Championship Weekend-Part 2

     I have soooo missed my computer.  My laptop had a little spilled milk problem (I did not cry, though) on a Monday to end all Mondays (not really), so I have not posted here since that happened.  Thankfully, all's well that ends well.  It just needed a cleaning and $90.00 later here it is on my lap again.
    Today our/my JV team won the JV tournament!  I am so proud.  They played so well.  Sadly, the only other teams that showed up all came from Piedra Vista.  But, we still won.  Anna said that since it was only the Tigers vs. the Panthers it should be called the "Cat Fight" in the future.  I like that.
    We have only two matches left in our regular season.  It's Kirtland away on Tuesday and then our final match at home against P.V. again on Halloween night.  Spooky!
    What follows are the other two birdie descriptions and some more information about the Club Championship this year...

Club Championship Weekend-Part 1

Written on 10-10-13.

    Yes, I am on a bus again.  This time we are heading home after playing in Pagosa Springs.  Every team won tonight...except mine.  One of my players was hurt (she bruised her elbow badly during a drill), but we also just got beat; their JV was tough.  It’s on to districts next week, though, so a fresh start is coming our way.
    
On to golf...
   
    I played in the Club Championship this past weekend again.  I believe this is my second time ever.  I did fairly well, but I could have done better, just like my JV team tonight.  Despite the average play, I placed fairly high.  I took 5th place with my gross score and 6th place with my net score.  I earned three birdies, but I also had a couple of triples and one quadruple that I’d like to take back, but can’t.
    These are the birdie descriptions...
