Good morning Spies

Board meeting is over.  Coffee has been added. Library, haircut and golf league to come for the balance of the day.  Hoping my round yesterday helps my drives tonight.  Just can't make the adjustments consistently from my lesson last week.

Tomorrow we are making the trip to Cleveland Clinic for Hubby's ticker!  Hopefully they get it back in rhythm.

Happy Hump Day

Got a pic of cardinal chicks, bluebirds elusive.

We had cardinal chicks a few weeks ago.  Dad was chasing the chick around the yard; was fun to watch.  Haven’t seen the adults recently so they have probably flown off.     Have a pair of bluebirds in one of the birdhouses in our backyard.  Assuming there are chicks, since the pair are flying in and out constantly.

Cardinal chicks here are pretty well fledged.  I was in the backyard a while ago and the Cardinal mom buzzed me and then Bluebird mom & dad took shots at me😁
Bluebird chicks are just getting hatched and mom & dad are flying in and out feeding all day long.  It’s 2nd bluebird hatch this spring.

No bluebirds or cardinals here; blackbirds and chickadees, and they buzz the hawks flying over the course when they are around their nests.

Good morning, Spies! Taking a trip to see my chiropractor friend for an adjustment. I never believed in chiro practices until I met him and he changed my life for the better. 

@BKervin sending good thoughts and prayers your way, heart stuff can be scary. I have been dealing with a congenital heart issue for the last 14 years that they didn't find until I was 19 because that's when it started giving me issues. Hoping for the best!

Thank you

Good afternoon, GM thread. Excited times at MGS. Those TAIII wedges look a tasty bit 😋 etc. Abbrev's R Us. 😆 LEDFOB helped me chipping on yesterday's 9 hole. When I see one of those tips online I can't incorporate many but once in a while something will click in a particular situation and an acronym can help.

Well fine folks it aint morning but it is afternoon. I appreciate all the well wishes. I ended up 3rd out of 40 players. I had a bad front 9 but it could have been worse had a stellar back nine. My playing partner in our last group nipped me by 1 shot. We got a laugh out of it because 4 years ago before I had my accident he nipped me by one shot in the Championship no handicap flight for a Multi Club Championship. One of our older members who is a high handicapper had a stellar day and took my bud by one and me by 2 shots. Well deserved for him. Like I said a lot of folks gave me congrats because they know where I came from 3 years ago. I count it personally as a win. Looking forward to building on it

Sounds like a great round & finish!

Well it's gone alright.  Have a hotel just down the street from Cleveland Clinic as he's scheduled for a "jump start" at 9:30 tomorrow to get the ticker back into rhythm.

Thank you and everyone for all your thoughts, prayers and well wishes. They are appreciated more than I can say in words.

I hope things go well for your husband tomorrow and they can get his heart back into rhythm. Let us know how it goes.
