All Star Park and Rec Tennis Instructor

 

 

#1 - One of the benefits of co-parenting is that pretty much whenever we get home from a trip or camping, it is time for the girls to go over to their mother's.  Therefore after getting home from camping on Sunday, I didn't have to motivate myself to get groceries.  Michael and I could eat what is leftover in the fridge, freezer or garden. That was the case Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday...today I got some groceries and made an actual dinner.

 #2 - I have the most dedicated park and rec tennis instructor imaginable.  His name is Dave, and I'd recommend him to anyone.  On Tuesday it was raining and there was a possibility our lesson would be cancelled.  Dave sent out a text to let us know it was a 50/50 chance of lessons that day.  Dave knows I don't have a cell phone, so he sent me an email saying the same.

 Today he sent this message

 "Hey Tammy,

I just realized I didn't update this email for you. I'm glad you made
it, but I'm sorry for making it a question mark for you."

It had stopped raining, it was dry outside, I went to tennis. TWO DAYS LATER he  thinks to apologize for not updating me.  He teaches FIVE days a week. He probably has 50+ students, and a job and kids!  Really Dave it's not necessary.  He also threw in a comment, which is helpful as I do wonder if I should be in a lower level.

#3 - "It's really cool watching you play singles -- you hit very well and very
defensively when those baseline bombers come after you, eventually
wearing them down :)

-Dave"

He gives this amount of care and attention to everybody! He is a gem in the park and rec land.  (Really he just truly clearly loves tennis.)

#4 - It was good to, for the second time this week, hear thunderstorms and rain with our drought.  Michael went out and cleaned the gutter in the street that was plugged up. And cool air is coming in the windows.

#5 -  Michael is excited about the new scale he is getting. It has lots of measurements and it keeps track of it all.  I am excited that he says he will get rid of the old one, that is what matters to me, not accumulating more things!
