another fast post

out at 6:30 am but did a walk and run 6 miles giving the legs a break mostly. it was a pretty morning and not that hot. the legs were beat up some. all i can do at this point is hang in there and get past the house stuff and back onto a decent schedule. at least i am getting in some running and some, though very little actual golf practice.

the day was spent cutting down an oak tree and a maple tree and then cutting them up. then planted some stuff and weeded and pruned. cleaned out the laundry room some and then met with the contractor manager to go over the next days of work schedule and what we could and couldn't do. that took almost two hours and we reached a schedule that will have it all done by mid-september. i see my future and it is a frustrating one, but the UK has rubbed off on me and i will cope quietly.

after our meeting i decided to just go hit some balls and when i got there i saw a chance to play a few holes before the night league started. skipped the first few holes and started on #6 with no warmup at all. flared a tee shot slightly right that held the edge of the green and two putted for a par. then played 7 more holes and had some nice shots and some out to the right. everything wants to go right these days. good drives on 7 and 9. nice 5 wood on 8. a couple of blocks out to the right also. ok irons and good chipping and putting. was nice to play on grass, but wondered to myself whether i wanted to spend the next year trying to re-find the swing i once had. time will tell.

hit a small bucket afterwards- not well except for the 6 iron. then home to work on cleaning out stuff. and on we go. am about 30 emails behind and will try to catch up some over the next few days but we have house stuff that must be done by tomorrow night and then again by monday.

and now off i go. will get better soon but absolutely have so little time to get it all done so you just do what must be done and sigh at what you don't get done.

waiting for my next stimulus check---and why is gas $.30 cheaper in philly than virginia?

stay well all.
