Congrats, Peeps.PAULMAN!!!! Surgery on the YTPP was a SUCCESS! Boiling water worked like a CHARM!!!! And despite having a few Blue Moons with an Orange (Ok...that's girly and I fully admit that)...I was able to wield an exacto knife and score the pallets to size. I had a staple gun, so put in the finishing touches, and now am customizing the grip as it's just about dry.
THANK YOU!!!!!
Wooo hooo...a girl who can work power tools Go me!
Made me think of a quote (on a magnet) a good friend sent me in one of my darkest hours (of being a new mom of two tiny ones).
Maya Angelou said:A woman should have a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill and a black lace bra. [And] A Woman should have a friend who always makes her laugh and a friend who lets her cry.
I'm a fan of power tools myself and there's a full set of screwdrivers and socket wrenches (metric and std) in my laundry room. I don't (yet) have command of the garage. Just wait'll we get that Man Cave built out back!
I need my racket restrung but I've been playing too much lately to even want to give one of them up. One of these days, I might get into stringing it myself. I can see me and my engineering DNA coming to life.
Gotta a big win today. But dang if I didn't almost fritter it away. Up 5*-2 in the first set...and lost it in a TB. Got up a break quickly in the second, but then lost it down the stretch. At 5*-5, 0-30...I pull it out with all our teammates watching since we were last on. Win my service game, break her to win the set. Win the 3rd set TB 10-3 with an eat-your-heart-out Johnny Mac lookalike stab BH drop volley winner at 2-all. Sucked all the wind out of her game.
Sorry, guys/gals. Had to spill just a bit.
Hope everyone's enjoying this lovely weather!!!!
