NY Update My weekend

This past weekend was the IRT Pro Stop at Syosset, my home club. In addition to watching my friends play and all the pro's play and making new friends and watching them play, I also got to play.... I know I didn't post after the Seattle Pro Stop, I was upset... I had a migraine the whole weekend and I could not focus. I did not play well and I screwed up as a ref, I atoned so no stones, thank you... Afer two weeks of solid training to get ready for Denver, I was able to play at the local stop. I did not make it to Stockton, I had a previous engagement... But I still got to play, and play I did... Three divisions, Women's Open Singles, Women's open doubles, and Mixed Open Doubles. I had some pretty big wins, it was a successful weekend.... I finished second in every division, and the one there is no one else in the world I'd rather lose to than my friend Aimee, whom I believe is probably one of the greatest women players ever.... She played awesome ball, kudos to you aimee!!! Thanks to my boo who came out to watch me play and supports me and my ambition...My parents also came out to watch me play the finals this morning, It was great that they came to watch... I'm getting ready for Denver, 3 weeks, but tonight I rest, tomorrow, I train... 

Seattle Preview

Okay, I've been hurt, resting an injurfed ankle. My boo taking really good care of me :)... I played three or four times since the accident in Virginia. This past Saturday, I was able to get on the court with my friend Aimee and really push on it and see how it was. It was fine!!! Yipee.. I got new court shoes (New Balance) for the holiday and I Started breaking them in... I am excited about this trip b/c I have never been to Seattle. I will be playing women's open in addition to the Pro Division. I do not know the draw as of yet, but my focus is on the first match. I won't make the mistake that I mae in Virginia again... I am hopeful of an 11, 12, or 13 seed... That would get me out of playing rhonda in the second round again... I'll be able to take her, I just need more time to develop. All the girls have been playing for a while and the younger girls developed through the juniors. I am at a disadvantage only playing 13 months with a 7year hiatus... Happy New Year everybody!!! When I see the draw I will add to this post... I am playing tomorrow, and wednesday. I fly thursday... ALL DAY LONG....
