THERE'S A REASON WHY THE WORD "LOVE" IS PART OF SCORING IN TENNIS

LOVE

Met up this morning at the High School Alma-matter courts with an old buddy to slap the ball around a bit. Kevin brought Little Lady and Kashi down to watch as their mom attempted to maintain some dignity while missing a lot of shots.


My game has a long way to go before I'm back to my baseline level of play, but I thoroughly enjoyed myself. My service game is a disaster, my backhand timing is off, my forehand backswing is unacceptable, my footwork needs a lot of work... otherwise I felt great :) I play again on Tuesday morning and I'm hoping to still win the fight against the USTA ranking system so that by spring I can play on a competitive league. It's never work... it's all play on the tennis court. I love love love it.

Awesome! I wish I could play tennis, unfortunately, the scope of my knowledge only goes as far as required high school P.E.
Game on...
