Oh Come on already!

This is just getting stupid now. Forecast for today was sunny and 84. So, what happens? A huge storm rolls through this morning and once again we have pouring rain to soak an already saturated landscape.

To make matters worse, almost all the golf courses are closed again. League tonight was canceled again and with more rain coming tomorrow and Wednesday it doesn't look good for Wednesday night either.

I did get out and play 18 Sunday morning at Door Creek but it was soaked. Squish, squish, squish on every step. And with all the rain, the fairways and rough hadn't been mowed in over a week so they were really long and thick (that's what she said). I shot an 89 which could have been better and could have been worse. Nothing really affected by all the water much except the 3rd hole when I pushed my drive into a very wet tree area and had to try to chip out twice from the puddles and mud. That was fun...

On a downer note, we put down our cat, Morticia, Saturday. She was 17 and her health was failing quickly. She was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism a month ago. We got medication but it didn't do anything. She ate and ate and defecated everywhere, loosing weight till she was down to 4 lbs. I decided that enough was enough, she wasn't enjoying life any more and constantly having to clean up messes was wearing on my patience. That's 2 animals this year, hopefully no more for another 7 or 8 years!

Work is really busy so I'm not sure how often I'll be posting. As you can tell by the time on this post, I didn't get around to my normal morning posting...
