Ater all that good practice!?

I got such good scores in practice throwing darts yesterday to find out it was a bi-week. Now this doesn't mean that our darts are bi-sexual but that we didn't play after all until next week! Bummer! I will keep practicing though so that I might even win in 301 and Cricket. These are two games I play. You may not be familiar with darts so here is a crash course. The outer ring on the board is doubles. If I throw a dart in the outer ring on 20...you guessed it...40 points. The big area is single. Just 20. Then there is the most elusive inner small ring which is triple. You are so smart because you are catching on that that is 60. 301 is a game that insists you double in to reduce the 301 points and after that is nearly accomplished one must double out exactly! There are thousands of double out options and because I can do most anything BUT math I must rely on my teammates to help me know unless I end up with the dreaded double 1!! This happens often as I am only in my second season! Cricket is one of my favorite games. One must throw three each of 20-15 and 3 bulls eyes. I can also score points if I have a number closed with three darts already and you don't. I really enjoy it because it is also a strategy (I most always say stragedy due to lexdixia) game!.
Because it was a bi-week I ended up with an alternate hobby. I tried out a new recipe! Tomato and goat cheese tarts. They were delicious except I must practice caramelizing onions! Mine were well done. Took a picture of them but have yet to download it to the computer. That is my project this weekend!
Off to do hair! Must pay my taxes! I am nearly debt free! I totally forgot to mention that little hobby. I know it isn't really a hobby but it makes me feel better to think of it that way! Attitude is everything!
