New strings for the racket. Haven’t tested yet.

I therefore purchased the Babolat Pure Strike 16 x 20 with the largest grip available to suit my hands with an over-grip. I let the pro-shop choose the strings and over-grip color.
Here it is:

I have friend-zoned X (formerly a great platform called Twitter) - taking a break from that toxic.

I’m starting a second account here to document a journey back into playing regular tennis after more than 30 years away from the game.

Tennis last night went well. A ‘social comp’. Men’s doubles.
Only one double fault.
My game is returning after all those years of not playing.
I was invited and encouraged to come back next.
Will do.

Been practicing and playing social on clay.
Tonight- Playing an in-house social comp tonight on hardcourt (which I also haven’t played on in decades)
Wish me luck.

I was a not bad, heavily coached, pretty alright tennis player back in the day.
Have taken the game up again after a decades long break.
New racket, new shoes, and feeling a bit rusty but thankfully muscle memory lasts a long time.

She was the quiet wish I never stopped making — but some hearts are too afraid to be held.
"She was offered something real after a long friendship— love without conditions — and she turned away.
One day she may realize what she lost, but by then, it may no longer be hers to have."

It ain’t Hump Day, it’s improvised inverted chords on bass with a bucket full of reverb day.

My mother is in end of life palliative care.
The rest of my family goes for fleeting 10 minute visits, see she’s not conscious and not communicating, and they leave.
I go everyday and sit next to her. For hours.

This is pretty amazing
Contact lenses are infused with nanoparticles that convert near-infrared light in the 800–1,600-nanometre range into shorter-wavelength, visible light that humans can see, in the 400–700-nanometre range.
