On the bright side, you don't need an ankle to play drums, right?

(Heck, one guy doesn't even need two arms…) :D

Fortunately it's my left ankle for drumming. It's not used as much. Right ankle would be really bad. Rick Allen had to totally relearn how to play. Amazing that it didn't stop him. Many ppl would have throw in the towel.

Any of ya'll ever been stung by one of those great big Japanese hornets? (Or that's what we call them). My wife called and said one stung her on the shoulder and said it was way worse than any sting she ever had before. I asked her if she felt like she might be having an allergic reaction and she said she didn't think so but the pain was very bad all the way up to her neck. I see those things around the house a lot but have never been stung by one.

That isn't working because somehow they got over here. ;-)

Oh no! I blame Ryo Ishikawa.

I paid out a fairly large (for me, at least) chunk of change to have my driveway and sidewalk leading to my front door mud jacked yesterday. Wow, what a difference it makes pulling into the garage.

Leveling the slabs by drilling holes and pumping concrete under the slabs Cheaper than taking out the old slabs and putting in new ones.

My folks had that done years ago. Last year, one of the cement plugs they used to fill a hole shot up in the air and landed on their roof. An inch circumference, few inches long. Can u imagine if you were standing over it when it blew ?!?!

Wow! I would have figured any concrete pumped into the hole would expand enough underneath to keep that from happening. Was it in the winter? I could see ground water seeping under it and freezing and putting too much pressure on the plug holes.

Another birthday party in the books, and only a couple toys got destroyed.

Got the call to play this afternoon and I'm sitting here with a bum ankle. How depressing. I suppose I'll ran the garage. =\

    • Day 132: did some mirror work while watching TV. Worked on backswing stuff primarily. 
    • 26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity. 
    • Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
