Misunderstanding


When Barb's pickleball friend and her husband took us out for dinner, Barb was talking casually about how difficult it is to win the US Open in the 4.5 category.  Barb thinks it is easier to win the 5.0 category because, even though they are higher ranked, there are fewer teams.  Barb was saying that all of them should play in the 5.0 category.  I guess Barb's friend thought Barb was asking her to play with her in the 5.0 category because she heard through the grapevine that other people had heard that she was playing with this friend in the US Open.  Barb did not intend that at all. She was just blowing off steam.  Then her friend sent Barb a message saying that she didn't think she was ready to play in the US Open and Barb was really surprised that she had misunderstood the whole conversation but Barb was also happy that her friend backed out on her own and Barb didn't to tell her she didn't want to play with her.
