With everything that’s been going on with Andrea since October, golf had taken a back seat. I haven’t played since early October (pre-diagnosis) and frankly haven’t even had much time to think/daydream about being out on the course. Too many other things to worry about.
This weekend was an off chemo week, the weather was really nice and I had gotten a lot done during the work week. So I rolled the dice and headed out to HMB, hoping to get in a quiet 18. I really needed some peace – to play alone, and to walk. Without any real play or practice since October, I had no expectations. Just needed some therapy that only golf could provide.
It ended up being perfect. Great weather (but really windy). There was no one out there. I played alone and walked. It was so quiet and so nice to think about nothing but golf for 3 hours. I didn’t realize how much I missed it – even hitting a pretty bad shot felt great.
Weirdly, I ended up shooting the best score of my golf life. I had no idea where I stood until I tallied up my score on my walk back to the clubhouse. That’s probably why I played so well.
so happy that you could play golf and get your mind off other thngs.

Glad you got a chance to get out while Andrea was busy. You both sound happy in your blogs. Do you want to make me jealous and post your score? Love, Mom
That’s awesome. Congrats.
