It's been awhile


It's been over a month since I have posted and have missed taking some time out of the day to post my random thoughts and experiences. Alot of great things have been going on and not sure how the weeks fly by so quickly.

I'm finally settled into my home - took me a couple months to get unpacked and still have a little more to do, but 95% of it's done. Pumpkin, Sugar and Jordan have been getting used to the space. When we first moved in, they were not sure about the whole stairs thing and how to walk on stairs. They could make it up, but going down, they run down, slip and slide and end up sliding into the wall at the bottom of the stairs. Good thing for cats is that they are invincible and get right back up. They love the lighting since there are a ton of windows and are first to greet me at the door as I pull up. *smiles*

On the billiard front, I haven't been playing as much as I would like due to other commitments, but starting in January 09, I am going to put a focus on improving my game. I want to play with confidence and elevate my game to the next level. Always something to learn, and I want to be ready to play in the Texas Open in 09. I'm really fortunate to play on some great teams and have excellent coaches. With their guidance, I can get to the next level. By the end of the year, I want to be at a skill level 6, but it's going to take a ton of practice to get there. Gotta set goals.

Our team tonight is in a 4 way tie. Crazy. If we do well tonight, we can seal our seat in the play offs. Goal is to go 4-1, but a 3-2 should be ok to get into the play off. We have a solid team, so I am pretty confident everyone will do well tonight.

Our BCA team on Tuesdays is going to complete in Vegas for the BCA Nationals in May. It will be at the Riviera Casino again. Tough competition out there, but we are going anyway. *smiles*

Wrapping up for now, going to get some practice in before league starts. Till later...
