"I Didn't Know That Kim Golfed?"

Today I played in the Peggy Collins Memorial Golf Tournament. (I know you’re saying, “I didn’t know that Kim golfed?” Well, I don’t. Today was my first time playing golf.) Peggy worked at the university, and she passed away from ovarian cancer several years ago. Proceeds from the tournament will benefit Ovarian Cancer research at the London Regional Cancer Program.

It was a ‘best ball’ tournament, which is good because if it was a ‘hit your own ball’ tournament, I’d probably still be out on the course. I am proud to say that our team used 3 or 4 of my drives and a few other shots here and there. Our team won the coveted title of “Most Honest Team” (aka Last Place Team). Thank you to Sandra who kept checking to see if my arm was okay. It actually didn’t bother me too much. It only hurts when I straighten my arm which I guess you’re supposed to do when you swing but I’ve made up my own technique. All in all the day was good fun…dare I say that golf is a sport that I might actually take up one day? Many thanks to Andrea for letting me borrow her clubs (I only lost 2 of your balls and I will replace them). Lastly, thanks to Sandra, Allen and Deanne for a great day.

Time to crash,
me
