Congrats

Barb got a "Congrats! Barb" graphic on pickle ball paddles in a graphic in Facebook from her new best friend Troy who makes these graphics that all her pickle ball friends share.  Barb just found out that he is the guy who makes them and he made one especially for her.

Sign

Laura got a real kick out of the sponsor on my fastball shirt.  Punkydoodle Corners Goat Milk.  I showed her where Punkydoodle Corners was on the way to my fastball game in Tavistock.  She took a number of pictures of me and her standing beside the town sign.  Then today I saw that someone had stolen the sign.  Laura was lucky the sign was still there when she was visiting.

Poop

We laughed at our neighbour putting plastic bags on the side mirrors of his car and truck because he said that birds sit on the mirror and look at themselves in the mirror and while they sit there they poop on his mirrors.  We thought that was such a stupid story.  Today I went out and found that a bird had pooped on the passenger mirror of Barb's car.

Bill Payments

Barb found out that she couldn't pay Laura's Fido bill because they didn't have the right postal code.  I guess when Laura set up the account she gave them the wrong postal code.  Barb could not guess the postal code that Laura gave them.  It is so stupid that they won't even let you pay your own bill.

Warranty

Barb's still clinching her teeth while she sleeps even though her old dentist told her she had reprogrammed her bite.  Today she broke one of her new $16,000 teeth.  Fortunately, they were still under warranty and she was able to get it replaced for free.  Actually the new dentist just charged it to her old dentist.

iPod

When I came back from Florida, I thought I had lost my little iPod Shuffle that I listen to Podcasts on.  But tonight I found it when I got back from St Catherines and unpacked my gym bag.

Madman

Barb won a gold in ladies and a bronze in mixed in the London pickle ball tournament.  She would have done better except she had to play against this guy named Adman who she calls Madman because he is so crazy.  They were leading by a large margin in their game against him and he started to go crazy yelling at his partner and yelling at himself.  It was really disruptive but because Barb thought it was a sure thing that they were going to win, she didn't think it was necessary to ask for a referee to come and get him under control. Anyway Madman and his partner came back to win and that put Barb and her partner out of the gold medal game.  Barb said she had never seen anything like his behaviour on the court.  He was absolutely berserk.
