Gisele's Tennis Today

Oh what a great day…. We were playing our facilities sister team, in our first round rain make up match.  We all were taking this way too seriously.  It's the one team you need to beat this season.  We share courts, tennis pros and the ups and downs of being in the same facility.  These are my friends, my partners on other teams, it always makes for a more uncomfortable competitive day.  
In the end my team took 4 out of the 5 lines!!  We had to fight for that last win on line 1.  Whoo hooooo we did it!!!  We started this match in early October and are just now finishing it in December.  Way took long to think about the outcome.  Ahhhh we did it though…. bragging rights for the first round.  








I got home after our victory lunch to be surprised with an email from our league recorder… I have a freakin LINE VIOLATION!!!!   What the heck??  How is that possible?  Oh yes it was possible, and it was true.  I was devastated for 2 hours, must gain perspective Gisele, it is only tennis suppose to be for fun.  Oh and it was so much fun to win today!!!  Maybe I shouldn't take this captain business so serious, let it go, drink more chardonnay.  I just hate making mistakes.  And it was just that, a silly mistake~ some may call it cheating, it was an innocent accident though.  Never the less the punishment was handed down We had to forfeit line 3 and were also penalized a point for doing such a negligent job in selecting the line up way back in October. But we are still the winners for the day.  Whoo Hoo!!!!   In the end we are all still friends and no one is really all that upset about it. 
Drinking one of my holiday favorite that just arrived!  Suacci Carciere shipped in from the Russian River Valley.  Right now I'm enjoying the Rose Wine for a change up.  Not too sweet even the hubs likes it.  As well as the Heintz Vineyard Chardonnay, Gold winning wine.   
Yummmmmmy!!!!
