This morning was a busy one at church for both of us. We each sang in our choirs, plus I had to read at mine and recite prayers. Some how it all fell on the same Sunday. I should have a few months off now – except for writing a column for our June newsletter.
After church, I got my oil changed then sat down to relax – and regretfully saw my Twins' winning streak come to an end. Good thing we had the first week of Couples Golf League to cheer me up.
At least that was my hope. Jim is 10 times better than me. Or maybe 20. But this year, they changed up the format (in the interest of speeding up the pace of play) and we are in a scramble format. If you can call it that with just 2 people. But we played that way and our opponents did, too.
We play a 9-hole course. The only caveat was that we had to use at least 3 of my drives. They couldn't all be Jim's. Which was OK since 3 of the holes have the women's tee boxes a bit ahead. Frankly, all my drives tonight were decent enough that I hope I can do the same when I have women's league on Thursday!
Still, it takes 2 good golfers and especially good putters to par every hole. We did not. We finished 5 over par. But beat our opponent's score.
I was just glad to contribute so hubby doesn't feel he has to PUTT up with me.
And we're meeting new people (yes, there are a few in Rapids that we don't know) since there's 20-plus couples and league is only 6 weeks long.
I just hope we don't need long pants and jackets the rest of the season. For once I want the temperature to be higher than my score!
