Summer Time!!....Almost
Well I finished my first semester of college after an almost 25 year absent from studying. I only took 2 classes, pre-requistes, but, I am still proud that I received A's in both classes. I will be starting summer school, and that will be two more classes I can get out of the way so I can apply for the nursing program at the college. It seems like a long process and I can't believe I am actually taking the time out for this, but in the long run having a degree is better then a minimum wage job.
My husband and I went to San Francisco for the weekend. Watched a Giants ballgame, spent the night, attended church the next morning, then spent the day in traffic and getting to Golden Gate Park to see the Japanese Tea Garden. We are 6-0 watching the Giants play. I am beginning to think we are bad luck for them, but nonetheless, we will continue going to see them. They have to win at some point! The best news I have heard of for the Giants was the vanishing of Benitez. Athletes are always exciting to watch, but there are a few bad apples among all the good ones. Watching the bad apples is never fun. My list for bad athletes is actually quite small. Benitez just had a very cocky attitude, and always got an incredulous look on his face when someone would hit a homerun off him, there isn't any pitcher who hasn't had a homerun smacked off him, so the looks just made him look even stupider. Yeah I know that isn't a word, but it is in my book! Michelle Wie is another, I can't even call her an athlete. She walks out on the courses like she is a queen, and she isn't even good. At best she is a good weekend golfer, but she isn't good enough to compete with the real athletes. Her and Benitez would actually make a good couple, they could blame everybody and everything else for anything that goes wrong. Take this last tournament she was in, it was actually smart of her to drop out because if she hadn't, she would not get to participate in any more LPGA events for the rest of the year. She was only in the tournament because her sponsors got an exemption for her, and if she had scored an 88 in any round she would not be allowed to golf in any more LPGA events, regardless of who is sponsoring her. And of course, she did fall back on the old, "my wrists hurt", which I don't believe for a second. She was saving her own hide, plain and simple. Just what excuse will come up in the next tournament? Raiders and 49er's, I can't even look at individual athletes here, I simply can't stand either team, personal thingy.
OK, off on another route, we have our new refrigerator, stove, roof, air conditioning and heat, and now just waiting for the floors and gutters. And I got a new computer, which hasn't been easy, because I'm not much of a computer geek, I just like playing games and reading a couple blogs, and this windows Vista is pure hell for me.
Well that's about it for now on my rantings, I haven't been feeling too well this past week, but in good time, all things will pass.
