JT and Suz are in the House!

After two short hours of being asleep I was getting up. I went to get some pop and went to Dearth’s apartment to help him move a couple items. My knee was sore but I told him I would help. I was able to lift things, it was stairs that took me extra long to do. Luckily we had only a couple steps getting into the house he is moving into. We were using my truck to move some of the bigger items that he had. It only took two trips to get the things necessary.

Then I went to the doctor to see him about my knee. Turpin wanted me to see him to get everything checked out. I filled out the L&I; paperwork and the doctor took a look at me. He pulled, pushed, poked, and did a few other things. He felt that the injury was a common one for people who fall on their knee. He said some rest is what I need.

I called JT and let him know I was coming to Colfax to meet up with them on the golf course. I was going to golf the final nine-holes with them, but that was before I got hurt. When I got to Colfax they had all been waiting for me. So I decided to see if I could swing a club. I took one of Ron’s and took about four swings. It did not hurt at all. I decided to golf.

I got my clubs and paid for a round. I did really well compared to normal. I think due to my injury I was being tender and that helped my game a lot because I did not want to hurt myself. I was hitting a lot of good shots and my short game was really good. Aside from one bad chip, they all were hitting well for me.

Following the golf we went to Dan and Michele’s for a BBQ. We hung out there for a couple hours eating, talking, and playing. I played some darts and cards with Ron’s son, Jonathan. It was around six in the afternoon that Jason, Suz, Jen, and I decided to play some poker at Zeppoz.

I play sixty bucks. JT and Suz played some more. I did okay most of the night. Then on one hand a new guy come on the table and started to try to push people around. The table was playing pretty tight. I had a K-Ten and he raised my big-blind. I called and on the flop was a K-Two-Six. I had top pair and I bet, he raised. I re-raised. Then came an Ace. Finally a Ten. I had been betting the whole way. I had two pair. He had two-pair with an Ace. He was pushing with an Ace-Two in the hole. I lost some of my stack.

After playing cards until about ten-thirty JT and Suz wanted to go to the New Garden for dinner. They invited me to come along. We talked about their last year and their complications with their son who had some birth defects. We were there for about an hour total. It was a nice conversation.

I was really tired so I headed home after dinner. I watched TV for a few minutes before going to bed.
