Game-point

When I could hardly contain my glee on realizing that I had won the point in spite of very nearly losing it. The sort of behavior that hardly befits a mother but I was dog-tired after 4 consecutive games and just couldn't keep up the front of an all sacrificing mother. I hope that history will judge me fairly.

At about 5 pm ......

...  all I have and all I know it is this dream of winning a set which keeps me trying on.

Change of sport

You know your loyalties have had a major shift when your youtube search is for tips on double handed volley rather than how to screen and roll. 

If you are also in search of that elusive killer volley......... here are a couple of links that I found really nice: this one on how to keep the back swing to bare minimum and the next one on watching the ball till it impacts your racquet and keeping the grip soft.

Terrific Ts

T1: Trikona asanas, highly recommended. Did feel silly and stiff on the starting day but now it being a few days, not so bad. The triangles are finally taking their shape.

T2: Tawa naans, highly recommended again. Will put up the recipe. Simple, easy and fast.

T3: Tea, it is just the perfect blend. Every day two times, god bless my father and his tea connections.

T4: Tennis, had awesome games last two evenings. Was glad to not mess up with the approaching shots, which has been my pet unforced error. It is a great feeling to be able to hit the ball where you want to. Looking forward to reaching the stage when I can hit it with the power I want to. Totally loved the doubles games last two days but am eager to check out if I can give a serious fight to my doubles partner in singles. Have been following some expert advice on youtube videos, I am sure it is going to show but that will have to wait for another day.
