Three Goals, One Met



I went to a golf driving range on Sunday and discovered that I can hit a ball without falling down.  But I lost so much muscle during my illness that my best “drive” is less than thirty yards.  I’ll keep working on that.  My goal is to play a round of par-three, nine-hole golf by the end of summer.

Another goal is to finish my needlework project of a skeleton dancing happily through a graveyard.  It’s close to done; if I can get it finished by August 9, I can enter it at our State Fair.  I know I can finish the stitching, but how to get it “finished,” that is, framed by the deadline?  Finishers need several weeks lead time – and we’re within range of that as of right now.

If I can’t get it done, I’ll enter it next year.  It’s coming out great!

Oh, and for a goal realized, go to Amazon.com and look among the self-published books for Minnesota Vice by Ellen and Mary Kuhfeld, hot off the press.  It’s a collection of previously published short crime-fiction stories we wrote individually and collectively.  Price is a very reasonable $2.99.
