Written on 2-1-25.
I wanted to put in here what I gave to James and Danielle from Mom and Dad after Mom died. I grabbed some stuff when we cleaned out their apartment, and I thought the gifts were fitting. I snagged all of Dad’s pocket knives. First, I just got the two that were next to his recliner, but later I found a bunch more. I gave Danielle one of the Swiss Army knives and I gave James one that had a Cutlass, a sailing ship.
Next, I found many religious items on Mom’s table between the recliners. I spotted many St. Anthony medals/necklaces, so I gave them one each as well. He was the saint outside their door that came from their garden in the backyard.
Last week, I went through all of the stuff I brought back and had spread out all over the computer room floor. I am back at home today, and it’s 8:36 at night. I am sitting in a decluttered computer room as I type this. That was the last of the “stuff” to go through from Mom and Dad, and it was difficult. I put it off for weeks. Actually, I put off some of it again by moving some of the journals/diaries to a box that I put in James’s closet.
On to golf…
I haven’t played due to the cold weather. The highs have been in the 30’s and 40’s, and the lows have been in the single digits. Brrrrrrr! I have been preoccupied with my new position, too. In other words, it has not been conducive to playing golf, but it hardly ever is in the month of January. I do remember having a January one year when Bruce, C.J., and I played many times at Hidden Valley.
One change I have made is keeping my golf clubs inside. I want to keep them nice and warm and happy when I am not playing in the winter. I believe it will keep the grips healthier. Who knows. I like to look at them, too. They are right behind me, and it makes me smile that they are in here.
I bought a new golf glove using the silly and even more expensive Asurion No Sweat Protection Plan.
More on that later…
