Ohappydaye's Diary

Well...my daughter had her first tennis lesson today and it was great...well for her. It was quite torturous for me. I was sitting there watching and it was killing me not to interfere and say, "No Breana...watch your footing." BUT I did refrain, I let the instructor handle it...afterall I'm paying him 40 bucks an hour. :p She did very well though I must say I'm pretty proud of her. She was super excited afterwards...which made me even happier. So I went to WalMart tonight and bought myself a cheapo racket just to play around with her...she has a "real" one (from the Pro Shop at the Tennis Club). Well they're both real so I guess I should say "quality" one. At any rate, I'm really excited...oh yea I said that already.

She's in here practicing, IN MY LIVING ROOM. She's going to knock everything off the mantle in a few, I can just feel it...but I don't have the heart to tell her to stop. She's so excited.

Oh well, I just wanted to share my joy with you guys. We'll probably go play in the morning after my walk...looks like I'll be getting lots of exercise in tomorrow. I can recover when she leaves for her friend's birthday party/sleepover..I'll need sleep by then! Lots and lots of it! :p
 
wow....fantastic. a good time of bonding too! i dun think i'll do good on tennis. too much coordination needed lol.
hv a good workout tmr! maybe yr daughter will make u chase after balls, that will be some good burning hahah.

What a fantastic way to get some extra exercise!! Should be a lot of fun, and quality time with family - what could be better!

Maybe we should all enter some sort of 'weightloss olympics' when we get fantastic at our sports!!

I really like that idea to be honest with you! I get carried away with sports though...I might get kicked out for being too "emotional" of a player! :eek: :p
 
Sports is a great way to get the exercise in because it doesn't feel like exercise. I really was a big athelete when I was younger. I was always overweight, but I never got ridiculously obese until I got older and couldn't find a pick up game as easy. I look forward to being in playing shape again :)
 
Good Morning OHD (It's too early for vigorous waving yet! I'll have to catch you next time!!)

:D
 
Hey Cannon, Patty, M2M and Manaloa! Good to see you all!

Cannon, I'll be ready to play a couple of games of tennis with you at your celebration party! :D

M2m, I know what you mean. This waving thing is killing my arm...though it may have contributed to my weight loss, so I'd better keep it up! *OHD waves* :p

Hey Manaloa...sounds like you're doing a great job as usual. You look FANTASTIC in those pics girl! ;)

Patty, I love your energy girlie! But be careful with that happy dance, I hurt my toe last night. :eek: :p

Didn't get my walk in just yet, we've been lazy today. I plan to get it in these evening though. Did get the tennis in...was lots of fun. This weight loss/fitness thing has really helped me out. I don't think I would've lasted as long out there with Breana before!

We'll I'm about to prepare a snack for Breana before we leave for the party a little later so I'll be back to go through diaries. I did get to a couple of threads but then realized what time it was. So I'd better get away from this computer! TTYL :)
