It always amazes me!

Ever have one of those days or time of the year, where you are in one of those pity poor me modes. Well I know I have. It is just part of the human condition sometimes you just get a bit blue. This time of year is a bit rough on me with Mothers Day having such a large meaning in my life.
So I have been in my little funk, just kinda had my life on cruise control, going about my daily routine. Not expecting much and not offering much. Well recently while playing tennis I met a wheelchair tennis player. I stood their watching him play. Maybe not the worlds greatest player, but putting his heart and soul into every point. As the points are played out I see him push as hard as he could to get to each ball. I see his determination not to give in but push one more time. Then I start to realize. Not only is he being competitive, but he is being competitive against able bodied people. I look over at his opponent and I see perspiration and desperation with each new rally. Wow, Amazing! This is how I met my friend Carl.
And now I am the person on the other side of the net. Running back and forth on the court. Pushing myself to my limits. Just so I can make sure that I can give him as much of a game as he is giving me. At the end of the day when we were both exhausted and shaking hands at the net. I came to realize. I am so truely blesed to have what I have, to have known who I know, and to have met who I have met.

For my MOM

Mom you were there...

You wiped away my tears when my eyes were sad.
You stood strong when everything was going so wrong.
You saw the brightness when I was in darkness.
You showed me love when love abandoned me.

Mom you are no longer here...

I miss your breath your heart your soul.
I miss your touch your feel your caress.
I miss your voice your sound your move.
I miss your dream your thoughts your mind.


Mother I love you

I did it!

I won! I won! my first tennis match! 7-5, 6-3, this is wonderful way to start a new experince. I was so nervous I thought I would never make it through the first set. Then I started noticing that my physical conditioning would let me rule the day. As my opponent started slowing down I started getting more aggressive and taking charge of the match. Nothing beats working your butt off, doing all the cardio, weight training , eating right and taking the correct supplements.

Love ya!

Wow can you believe

Can you believe the weather here in Texas. What a difference a day makes. One day its perfect weather the next it is raining, Oh well. For those of you that may not know I decided to take up playing tennis. I feel it is very important to vary the types of exercise you preform so you don't get bored, or your body acclimates, and the health benifits are not as effective. This is my first jaunt into competitive tennis. I played tennis on a recreational level for years with my sister but never against anyone in an organized league.
I was really nervous about playing. My competitive nature is so strong I just did not want to let the person I was playing against not to have a challenge. We all know that in order to grow we must set aside our fears and go forward and take on the challenge. Well I have my first singles match tonight. Wish me luck!

LOVE YA!
