Sunny Skies

What a difference a day makes in the weather! A crisp morning of sun and much less wind than what we experienced yesterday. I woke up early....again....had an early breakfast then headed to the courts to stretch and loosen up before my warm up with Trish. I went on right at 8:30 and finished in under an hour, winning love and two. I played well, but wasn't tested too much. Becky is more of a doubles player, but is extremely nice. We had a fun match and enjoyed our time on the court. I watched a few other matches this morning, had lunch at the club then hung out in the open hatch of my car, watching matches from the parking lot, protected from the slightly gusty winds and enjoying the warmth of the sun. Phil is due to arrive a little after 5. Tomorrow I play at 11:00 against a very consistent opponent, Susan Boyer. Susan and I have played a few times in the past couple of years. In fact she was a member of my Intersectional team this year. She missed most of last year with elbow problems. I will need to be very patient, focused and consistent tomorrow. I'm looking forward to the challenge.
