We have seen over the last few years the rise of pickleball courts and news coverage of how celebrities and people of all ages are embracing this sport. We decided we wanted to give it a try as a family and enrolled in some lessons. I still feel like it's an old person sport, but honestly there was only one man older than D and I there. Most everyone else was younger, more like in their twenties. We had a lot of fun learning and while we still have multiple lessons to get through, we look forward to being able to actually play. We also learned that the hand eye coordination warm up is A LOT harder than it looks. We basically warmed up by chasing after our balls!😂 Who knows maybe we will end up playing regularly or join tournaments? Ok, that seems like a lofty goal. I think first I will set our goal up as just learning to play a game.

| To be honest, I thought it was played with tennis rackets! I literally know nothing about pickleball. The rackets are actually square and kind of hard and the balls are whiffle balls. |
A and I brought back an extra souvenir from Orlando....an illness. I am pretty sure it was on the plane ride back. I heard multiple people coughing and blowing their noses. At first, we thought we were just tired from our trip and we were adjusting to the allergies here, but by Wednesday it was evident we were sick. Not only were we super tired, but we also had a wet cough and horribly runny noses. It felt like it lasted forever, but it only lasted about 5 days. I am on day 6 now and today is the first day I have had no DayQuil. My nose is super raw and I still have the occasional cough, but overall I feel much better.
T wanted to go with his friends to a football game this week so A and I went with him to watch. There were so many people! No kidding, several thousand turned up to watch a highschool football game. It was fun, but trying to leave the parking lot was a nightmare. I see why a lot of people left before the 4th quarter. It took us almost 30 minutes just to leave the parking lot. T enjoyed the time with his friends though so it was worth it. I am not sure A will go with me again. She likes to be at home and in her jammies by 8pm. I can't blame her. I like it too!😂

| It was a pretty big stadium. |
 |
| A and I sat in the first row of the upper level and T and his friends sat in front of us in the back row of the lower level, which thanks to T leaving his phone on silent, A and I had no idea where he was until the 3rd quarter. |

| It was a homecoming game so T wanted to get his little girlfriend a flower. Problem is we literally live nowhere you can get a flower so luckily the farm store had its fall gardening stuff in so we bought one and put it a reusable coffee cup with a bow. I think it looks cute and I told him to tell her this way her flower won't die in a few days😂 |
