Harmonized

Spent 10 mins at the driving range yesterday. Didn't want to over do it since it been roughly 7 months since last swung the clubs. It's good to be out there.

This is where I find the most correlation between my Kung fu training and my hobbies.  I've written about this in the past so I won't bore you again. 

With golf, when I can synchronize the six harmonies, I generate a lot of power and accuracy. I golfed 7 times last year, they we all scrambled tournaments where you go out and have a good time and try to hit every shot as hard as you can. 

After I made the connection between the harmonies and my golf late in the season but when I did it really showed.  I golfed my last 2 tournaments after this realization and I won the longest drive in both of them. That's right, a 5'5" guy winning the long drive over some bigger guys (just everyone is bigger than me). 

I'm trying to continue and develop that connection this year. You have to golf a lot to get good scores but you can be a good ball striker with playing a lot. 

My goals with golf this year is to golf at least 10 times and one round under 90.

Just a thought

What a hectic week it's been.  The third week of the month always seems busier with functions, events, meetings, etc.  I wonder why that is.  

Why not the first week? Is it too close to end of last month and everything that wasn't done last month get carried over the first week of next month?  Maybe that week is used the plan for the month. 

Why not the second week? Maybe there isn't enough time to get everything arranged because you were busy get last months stuff done last week.  

What about the fourth week of the month? Could it be that you're busy making a list of the things that you haven't completed that needs to done now. 

It kinda makes sense why the third week of the month is the busiest. 

I really enjoy the months that have a fifth week. Those weeks seem the least busiest of all but they don't come along very often. 

New partner

On Tuesday we (town and SG) our first joint meeting of the two Councils to discussion things that affect each of our municipalities.

Can't believe that we have never had a meeting. We've had many Tri-Council (SP, SG, PC) in the past but never one with just the two urbans.

We have my issues in common and it was nice to be able to discuss them with each other and share how each municipality views them.

We need to be fiscally responsible and sustainable for the future so we have to work together to provide services and amenities that will benefit both communities without duplicated them and spending unnecessary dollars.

Our communities are a few minutes apart and our residents don't care where they get the services just as long as they receive them. In larger communities resident drive further than that to get service or reach an amenity.

Working closely with our neighbors will benefit everyone in the region. We are going to have to bring down some of the protective walls built up and move forward in a spirit of collaboration and good will.

Toenail healing

Last year I wrote about hurting my big toe when I was running. Some how it was impacted in my shoe. I managed to relive the pressure under the nail and it didn't fall off.  

Now the nail has grown the past few months and you can see a huge ridge from when the injury occurred. I'm amazed by the bodies ability to adapt and heal itself when we're not very good to it. 

I took a picture of the nail so you can see the ridge.
