Leaving

What's up everyone.

I'm really not in the greatest of moods atm so bear with me if I'm short and to the point on this post...

I'm leaving in about an hour to head down to Tacoma for a work training thing. I will be honest that I'm really not a big fan of these trainings because it turns into a bunch of speaking in front of groups, in an indirect way, which I'm not a fan of to say the least, but they are always a good learning experience after all is said and done. Every one I've been to it's been the same thing actually. I get all nervous about the whole situation and then all of a sudden it's over and I'm thinking how much I got out of it..

So that's what I'll be doing all week. Worst part about it is I have to share a hotel room with someone I've never met before...wtf???

Poker really has been non existent lately. I think I've only played 4 days out of the whole month...too busy and my back has really been hurting me lately. It hurts to sit for more than 25 minutes, which really isn't helping...and my laptop is all jacked up so I can't take that and play on this week. So needless to say it's going to be a long boring week....

My mental really isn't all there atm. I really don't know what else to say I guess. I think I'm still in the speechless stage...

Well, have a good weekend everyone. Later

Almost settled

What's up everyone?

Things are starting to get back to normal around the new place. If you walked in and saw the place you'd swear we were completely moved in, everything is put away, place is clean (for the most part) and it looks like a home...Then you'd go into the garage and realize we still have a ton of work left...lol, standard I guess.

Only played once since we've had Internet connection (just got it on Thursday night), I will say that my new poker office is ridiculously sick. My wife let me have the 3rd bedroom to do with whatever I please, so I put my desk and computer in the room. My leather recliner, a TV (need to buy asap) w/ my xbox 360, and PS3. OK Seriously, do I need to ever leave this room other than when going to the bathroom??? I seriously doubt it.

I played golf this morning with my brother in law, and it was such a good time. . I got a membership for my birthday to my favorite course in the area where all my old golf buddies were. It's been at least a year since I've last gotten to play. Within 30 minutes of being there I had already ran into two of my old foursome.

I really didn't play that well. I missed it all day long except for a few good swings, but I when I missed I still hit the green or had a very easy chip. I shot 40 (for 9 ldo) and had 3 3- putts, so needless to say there is a ton of room for improvement. I'm definitely looking forward to getting out, being active doing something I love, and of course to keep my interest up, there's always the club championship and weekend foursome games to keep my mind focused...So hopefully it all works and I get time to hit some/chip during the week.

I started a stretching program since I'm going to being so much more golf related activity in the coming months. I really am sore already from this morning. I really don't want to have to sit out for a month or two because of my back, so I'm planning on working hard, starting my diet (after slacking off from Vegas and moving), and walking when I play and hopefully I'll at least be in golfish shape by July...

So now we've settled in a bit and things are starting to look forward to get back to grinding. I have so many things that I need/want to buy for the house that I think some extra $ from poker would be perfect right about now...

Have a good week everyone. Later
