Since you love...<B>Laura (@ Storytellin’ Mama)</B><BR/>Thanks! Since you love tennis, I assume you’re watching the French Open too. I suspect you’d find today’s <A HREF="http://smallreflections.blogspot.com/2008/05/hf43-osi-40pc-reflections-perspectives.html" REL="nofollow">HF#43</A> at Small Reflections of interest because I wrote of tennis there (among other things) … though I’m more than a day behind watching the matches recorded on my DVR. I’m avoiding ‘news’ because I don’t want to know who wins or loses until I see the match itself. At the moment, I’m watching Murray play Almagro (and Verdasco vs Youzhny) after watching Nadal win his 3rd match easily. I know Serena’s out …(how disappointing is that?) and I’m hoping to catch up over the weekend and then stay current. If you click on the LABEL ‘tennis’ after that post you’ll find samples of previous ‘tennis related’ posts.<BR/>Hugs and blessings,storytellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14101550406171982090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340188638004370422.post-65405602877048819612008-05-30T09:48:00.000-07:002008-05-30T09:48:00.000-07:00I love tennis!

Currently it’s a non-issue because I covered up the two existing holes and no new ones have appeared. I’ve got my fingers crossed … (making it hard to type this morning) … as I hope the gopher family has moved on. Hmm … I’ve been so busy sharing Photoshop Elements lessons I haven’t gotten around to tennis results yet, though there have been some exciting matches already. I’ll consider this …<BR/><BR/><B>Andrée</B> – My dad loved Baseball and I catch a game occasionally, but don't really follow the sport much any more. Watching tennis reminds me of my younger days a college when I played competitively … and it IS relaxing usually … though when life is as busy as mine’s been of late, I find I’m grateful for the rain delays early in the tournament … giving me time to do what’s needed without missing the matches. Of course it’ll be crazy later on as they double up to catch up.<BR/><BR/><B>Thanks to both of you for stopping by</B> and have a delightful day!<BR/>Hugs and blessings,storytellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14101550406171982090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340188638004370422.post-44370883062901170162008-05-27T17:39:00.000-07:002008-05-27T17:39:00.000-07:00aahhhh to enjoy a sport!

Interestingly on Monday THEY had rain in Paris … hard enough to halt play so I had time to begin reading A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS. I’m not sure what ‘blessing’ a gopher in my yard might bring, but I’ll try to remain open-minded and watchful ;--)<BR/><BR/><B>Paulie</B> – Thanks. I have a tendency to lapse into rhyme & rhythm occasionally … especially when ideas don’t want to flow any other way. I don’t have any NEW holes in my yard (and am relieved about that).<BR/><BR/><B>Whatever</B> – I agree! DVRs work w/o the hassles of video tapes … and I’ve got mine set to record tennis while I attend my Photoshop class this morning. Guess what I plan to do this afternoon ;--)<BR/><BR/><B>Sue</B> – I’ve got my fingers crossed that this gopher will move on (with whatever family members accompany him) and save my yard from devastation from below. Just call me Pollyanna. LOL<BR/><BR/><B>DoubleDeckerBusGuy</B> – Heheheheh … yez … all blessings gratefully received … especially the occasional ‘cable’ gifts. I’ve not resorted to ‘poison’ or ‘traps’ yet … nor have I called an ‘exterminator’ … and I am hoping for the best …(with fingers crossed making it a challenge to type).<BR/><BR/><B>Thanks to everyone for visiting and</B> leaving your reactions (and good wishes).
