Birdie!

Monday: worked until 530. Driving home in the twilight is tough. Slow evening.

Tuesday: got a little rain earlier this morning, but it clearing off in time for me to golf. Teed off just before 7 am using my lightup balls.

1. Flubs, then a couple of passable shots. Then overclubbed, hitting two 9 irons just over the green. Chipped back and 2 putted. Triple.

2. Hit 7 irons that didn’t go too far. Several bad chips. Give me another triple.

3. Hit three tee shots, each better than the previous one. Still short of the green. Chips were better. Ish. Putts went long. “Bogey”.

4. Hit three decent tee shots – two to the fringe of the green. Par!

5. Hit two 6 irons onto the green. Then I sank a long 20 footer for a birdie. Nice.

6. Hit two good hybrids off the tee, the second better than the first. Then a good 5 iron. Hit two wedges just over the green, but they were pretty. Then an even better 56 degree wedge onto the green. Two putt for a “bogey”.

7. Hit two more good hybrids off the tee. Then 2 of three 5 irons were good. Hit one wedge just over the green, and a second to the front fringe. An okay lag putt set up a “bogey”.

8. Still can’t hit my driver. Was under a tree so I pulled out my 3 iron, but swung too hard and flubbed them. Found my first drive, and lofted a nice 9 iron to the front rough. Three chips, each better than the previous. Good lags. “Bogey”.

9. Hit a real good hybrid off the tee. Hit 2 wedges just short of the green and a third too long. Good lag putt. “Bogey”.

Plenty to do at work.

Years ago Reid started using the day of the week as the subject of his email. Can’t tell you how much that helps me remember what day it is.

All this year I have been saving one photo / video a day on a phone app called “one second a day”. At the end of the year I will have a 6 minute video with 366 images of events from throughout the 2024 year. Lots of the grandkids but also my activities and some from the world of sports. The bad thing is that I haven’t figured out a way to transfer the info over to my new phone.
