The Thrill of Victory

I WON A GAME!!!

So really that is not a big deal, but it was for me. I am a huge klutz and I have never won an athletic event!! I just had my very first tennis lesson. And because the other girl also a beginner could not serve, I won!!! Yea!!!

I am very excited about this new hobby. I don't know if you can teach an old dog a new trick, but I am going to try. Daddy just retired and he played tennis in high school. In fact, he made it to the state championships in doubles!! I want to find a way to spend time with Daddy, that does not involve food. Therefore, I am learning tennis!

It is really fun, but not as easy as it looks. I am glad it is not baseball because I think I have more area to make contact with the ball with a tennis racket!!! Also, it is 104 degrees here and that is really hot to be outside trying to see a little yellow ball!!!

Wish me luck.....as I "Open a new window"
