My new passion

I've discovered a new passion.......billiards. I love playing pool! I wasn't ever really interested in it before, it just looked too hard. Then I came home and watched my pregnant sister play and she's really good. I was like if she can do it pg, I can do it with Fibro. Well...... I didn't start off as the best player but I'm getting better. I can make about 60% of my shots now instead of 5%. It's taken a LOT of practice, sore hands, and sore arms. Ive been pratcing at least once a week. I'd like to shoot more often, everyday if I could, LOL. However it has a lot to do with having someone to shoot against. I'm going to keep doing what I can though, I beat Heather the other day soooo....

I've decided that I'm going to get my Sissy a pool stick for Christmas for inspiring me to try something new. I think everyone needs to try new things every once in awhile. It keeps life interesting, welcomes new ideas, and fires dormant passions. Life has been so tough for me lately and having a new thing has helped to break out of this life of almost hermit-ship. It's like I've been rejuvenated. It's not all pool, not in the least. However I'd like to think that billiards has given me a different focus. Something to "shoot" for outside of myself.
