Niagara Tournament

I went to watch the Niagara Fastball Tournament and one of my friends who plays on my competitive team was playing.  I watched him hit 3 homeruns in one game.  He got 10 runs batted in with two 3 run shots and one grand slam.  Each time there were 2 other guys from my competitive team on base in front of him.

Tomorrow

Barb said she played lousy in the women's event at the London tournament and I wanted to say tomorrow is another day but didn't because I didn't want to sound flippant.  Then on Sunday, Barb played great and won silver.  So tomorrow was another day.

London Tournament

Barb's pickleball partner always says that the tournaments should give them a pickleball instead of a shirt that they will never wear.  That would be so much more useful.  Barb and Nancy were surprised when the London tournament actually gave them a pickleball just for entering the tournament.

Ottawa Public Library

I got an email today saying my Ottawa Public Library card had been renewed for another year.  I find that so funny because I haven't lived in Ottawa since 2015 but I guess they get a budget based on the number of people who use the library.  So they approximate that by how many people have library cards.  I do use the Ottawa Library Digital services a lot for ebooks and audio books but I obviously don't pay any city taxes to help pay for those services.  Thank you Ottawa.

Spell Check

Barb was trying to find a man partner for an upcoming pickleball tournament.  She was messaging a girlfriend and she told her wanted to mention that her guy would have to 55 years old because that is was her opening.  But the spell check corrected it to "My gut has to be 55 to fit into my opening".

Thrift Store

Every year on our anniversary, we go to the McDonalds around the corner for dinner and to the Thrift Store across the street to see what is new there.  I usually buy a whole bunch of old CDs at the Thrift Store.  Today I bought a CD that I thought was Bryan Adams "18 Till I Die" but when I got home and opened it up the CD inside was Bryan Adams "Best of Me".  Surprise!

Comments

Sarah sent me a message with Haleigh's comments on my recent blog entries and I accidently hit an unhappy face on it.  Sarah was very worried that I had a problem with Haleigh's comments.  I told her it was an accident but I didn't know how to correct it.  In fact, I didn't even know I had done it.
