Friday
Not used to the days of the week yet after changing my Tuesday/Thursday schedule so it doesn't feel much like a Friday to me. But, I did pay off the credit card and recover the trash cans so it must be.
Huge CC bill this week due to a year's worth of auto insurance and Zoe vet bill but the money was already in checking and there was more than enough. Then we got Dana's monthly SS payment so it replenished the well just in time. No accounting so far for the $460 or so SS dollars that landed last week. Eventually we'll get a paper explanation.
Today's pickleball was a bust. Again. The group I'm playing with has some people who are true beginners or play like one. So it is zero fun. Standing there waiting for someone to serve and actually get the ball in the court. Or watch and easy return just completely missed. I liken it to the old duffers in Caddy Shack who need someone to point them in the right direction before they hit the ball.
I've cancelled my participation in some of the PB that is likely to just be too much beginner. The next level of players up from my group is fine. I can play with them but the group fills up quickly and it is kind of clique-ish.
Now I'm just watching tennis and working on Prolific.
