first 9

this past monday, i finally got out on the course. it was a pretty spectacular outing for someone that’s supposed to be a 10 hdcp. and when i say spectacular, i’m saying i lost a ball on the first 5 holes for sure… eff i started on the range and hit about a small bucket […]

mom’s bday

we haven’t seen each other in a while. i don’t know that i’ve been any busier than normal, but i can say that i’ve been lazy like always? meh. nothing much has happened really. last thursday i went to the club to meet the new superintendent. seems like a nice enough guy. didn’t really spend […]

titanic

last night carolyn and i went to signature theatre to watch the show titanic. it was amazing. the intensity of the characters in their moments knowing death was coming… speechless. the only negative i have about the show was this one lady whose voice was just over the top compared to the other cast. her […]

kid free weekend (continued)

i struggle with depression. there. i said it. out loud and shit. i mean i’m not all the time, but my high and lows tend to flow like a microwave instead of a radio wave. i’m not in the minority. i’m sure there are plenty of others in the world that have the same, if […]

3 hours and $1,600 later…

  fuck yesterday… it started off fine. carolyn and i went to dominion valley to check out their clubhouse and facilities. it was fine. the gm now was the golf pro at pleasant valley so that was a nice blast from the past. we ended up not really liking all the nickel and dime fees. […]

lessons learned

sometimes i try to be the better person, to take the high road, overall, to be patient. it doesn’t happen all the time, but when i do lose my patience, it’s never a good thing. this came up last night when the family was at the table trying to spend some qt together, but one […]

apples… trees…

why does the apple fall so close to the tree? this has me worried with alex, but it also explains so many things with the rest of the family. sometimes, why can’t… i’m just angry and i need to stop. i’ve been trying to cut an attitude in makenna. she immediately says no or comes […]
