october

quite the weekend, cool, rainy. golfed both days, 78 and 77. Hitting the ball really well. pd day tomorrow, hopefully i won't be too bored but am not holding out much hope. golfing season coming to a close and curling season in full swing, no chance for a team this year so my curling career might be over, it was a good run while it lasted.

been checking out trips to the south over winter breaks, should do it this year, might be fun.

tuesday

school almost done, got new job,looking forward tothe summer and hitting lots of golf balls. got a new driver and it works great.

mighty hot around here, hot but nice.

a day

long time no blog, had an interview for my job and they gave it to me, now the fun begins. will have to hire staff and interviews and all that good stuff. hopefully it won't keep me too busy to golf. we have a yoga teacher in town and i am going twice a week so far. golfed last night, hit the ball well but putter failed me.

our course is coming along, all areas seeed and now we water, unfortuately our pump is giving us a little grief.

has been cloudy all evening but no rain. we need it because the forecast is for hot sunny weather for the next week.

good day bad day

took the kids to a farm safety day in another colony, it was a long bus ride there and back but the trip was worthwhile and hopefully some good will come out of it, safety wise.

bad news they informed that i was losing my job, ah the politics of teaching. oh well, what comes comes, too bad they left to late to apply for any other jobs. might be pumping gas next september.

sunday

i have to be more active in posting, i have been lax.

morning golf was good today, lots of good shots - no double bogeys, one birdie. yesterday was good also. I just have to keep it going on wednesday nights men's league.

having trouble with our greenskeeper and his ablility to keep on track. he spent 2.5 days building a dock and we still don't have our watering system up and running, good thing it has rained a little or we would be in big trouble. He also took today off and it is supposed to be raining tomorrow and tuesday so i am sure he will take those days off too. very frustrating.

good be a busy week coming up, we have babysitting on wednesday and then off to farm safety day on thursday, could be a tiring week.

got some great pictures of the grandkids today, good stuff.

sunday

let me tell you about my sunday.  got up way too early and couldn't get back to sleep so got up and headed to the golf course.  warmed up with a few balls and played great, lots of super shots and a few great laughs.

had lunch on the deck, burger and salad and headed home, damn near fell asleep on the highway but made it safely changed and headed to our muddy course to make sure the help was on track.

made it home and helped the wife move two trees and set her up to work on the flower beds.

son in law and grandson showed up so we headed back to muddy course to change flat tire on the golf cart ( an old 3 wheel harley ) and of course it was the front tire.  son in law handled it great and grandson and i checked out the equipment.  there was a skidsteer in the parking lot so the grandson had to check it out, i managed to slip and bang myself up real good on the scraper blade, blood and bruises.  we hopped on the gaiter and ran through the mud.

made it home and helped the wife plant and clean up, ordered pizza and cleaned up my cuts and bruises.

need to get away and relax!

thursday

golf course finally emerged from the flood waters, now we wait for mother nature to dry it out.

golfed last night in winkler, men's night, first round and i was terrible, couldn't chip to save a par. what a disapointment, hit the ball well tee to around the green, but just couldn't get it close.  have to wait til saturday for redemption.

had a day off today, Ascension day, was nice to get a day off. worked at golf course waited for greenskeeper to show up, he finally arrived after nine am, banker's hourse.  took the wife to town and had a huge salad at perkins restaurant, i mean huge.  tough to diet when they give you that much food.
