So far, so good! For the first time since 2017, our bowling team made the final playoffs. Out of 4 teams, we finished 4th. However, I am really proud of my team. Work has been going great. There was talk that they wanted us to go to the office THREE times a week. However, after airing our 'grievances' (in the loosest sense of the term), management rescinded their decision. So, we now have to go to the office TWICE a week. At about this time next month, I will be celebrating 25 years with the company. Essentially, this has been my first paying gig since I got out of university. I am a spectator of this, but the London Knights won the OHL (Ontario Hockey League) Championship in May. As such, they were the OHL representatives in the Memorial Cup tournament. The Knights did make it to the final game. However, in the championship game, they conceded the winning goal less than 30 seconds left in the game to the Saginaw Spirit, who hosted the tournament. Still....heckuva season! As a result of this, I missed the first month of softball. This was because the Knights were playing the majority of the nights we played softball. Softball season has been going great. We are sitting at near .500 on the season. Took me a little time to get the bat going, but I'll get there. In fact, about a couple of weeks ago, I was running towards second base - figuring the right fielder wouldn't catch the ball. He did. So, on my way back to first base, I'm not sure if I tripped on the base or I ran into the first baseman...or I slipped on the base, but I took a big tumble. I ended up bruising my knee and thumb in the process - so much so that I missed last week's game. Still feeling the effects of it, though. Not sure if I landed on my back as it is still a little sore. But, I'm going to give it a go this Friday. Meh - I'll live. I always do. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) Joker's Wilde

Yes, that sounds like a tough situation. I'm sorry you have to go through all that. Best of luck to you. Hopefully you'll soon be back on your feet and saying: Haha, thanks. One of my favorite scenes in West. You're welcome. I remembered what you wrote about that scene.
