Christmas-ish in June!

Let's face it. After yesterday's shit show of a day, I deserved something positive. And boy did I get it.

First of all, as I exited the house this morning I told hubby I was going to have a positive day. The only thing I could control is my attitude so I said I'd make it a good one. It worked. 

Morning went well and as soon as I returned to my computer after lunch, I received an email from my boy E over at SentryWorld that my golf clubs had arrived! As you recall, I came into a little lump sum of cash after winning a big raffle at school. So I went through the whole fitting process and putting together a set of golf clubs I actually use. 

I was anticipating they'd arrive by my birthday at the end of June. Instead, Christmas came early! 


I happened to scout out a blue-ish bag and that matched the clubs (covers at least) so I picked that up at Dunham's on the way home.


The set I purchased on Facebook marketplace a few years ago did not have the very useful 7 iron. So I'm so happy to have that back in my bag!


Since I've gotten used to and hit my hybrids OK, I now have a 4,-5-, and 6-hybrid in my bag. I'm mostly excited to try the 4-hybrid. I needed that distance club but the one I purchased last year at a sporting goods store was too long for this short golfer. And I never got the hang of it. We'll see how this one works for me!

The timing is perfect as I have golf league Thursday night and can try out everything. They better work – based on my investment! 

The only club I have yet to retain or purchase is my putter. I do have some spare change for that – or could use it on lessons on how to putt. I'll see how tomorrow goes! 

I've been reminded that clubs don't make me a better golfer. But my excitement and confidence level have skyrocketed in one day without even swinging!

Merry Christmas to me! 🏌
