The Gateway Sabre is our stable driver and one of the straightest flying discs on the market. A fast disc with pinpoint accuracy and a predictable finish late in its flight, the Sabre is versatile enough to hold any line for players of all skill levels. While the Sabre is stable enough at high speeds to compare to more overstable discs, it does so without a lot of fade at the end of its flight.

I am having a blast going "disc golfing" with my son and my daughter went today also. I still am really bad, but I don't take myself seriously - AT ALL.

The color of this disc is a lot prettier in person - I'm still so bad I buy my discs based on how pretty they are - but Tom has given me a bunch so I've only had to buy a putter, this mid-range and a very pretty hot pink one that I liked.

I needed a bag, and I found a general tote bag just the right size on clearance at Walmart for $4.00! Every time we go I make a point of telling Tom that what makes it so much fun is the company I'm in.

for those who keep up with the fitness thing...Fit Friday is posted.

I've nearly given up on the diet thing - I'm hanging in there because health goes way beyond weight loss. The reason for my frustration is graphic (warning for men) but the exercise part is going well.

The night I graduated another man received his honorary AA from the Noorthoek Academy. Fred has Down Syndrome and has been working on this degree for 18 years. I walked their fund raiser a few weeks ago with one of my students that attends there and got a small book of poems that the students wrote.

Here is a poem that this man wrote for his wife (also impaired)

When I Read This to You

As you have touched me,
On Valentine's night I feel
your loving, thoughtful heart
has touched me in very special ways
For a wonderful person is Katy.
She is my Valentine's night
With her red top on
With this ring I thee wed
with red sparkling wine
by the candlelight
by the window.
I am saying something
to you by the fireplace at night.
You may cry when I read this to you.
And I love you so much all the time.

If anybody out there is looking for a charity to throw some money at, please consider Noorthoek Academy - they get no government funding and this is all done through student money and donations. (or you can donate to my "Race for the Cure" page in my sidebar 😉
