June 30, 2009 Wimbledon & Swimming Classes

Go to www.bobandmike.com to catch the latest news on Wimbledon. As a doubles team they are in the semi finals and both are playing in mixed doubles and going strong.

Today the paper is talking about Murray winning in five sets against Switzerland's Stanislas Wawrinka. Wawrinka played for Switzerland in the Davis cup in March. We got to watch him up close and personal--excellent player.

Session II in swimming classes are going strong. Had to start another class at 7:20 in the morning-- more balanced and less stress. After six classes I am ready to eat and nap.
Kirby Teague, our Mr. Teague's daughter, is helping me. She and brother Matthew took classes a few years ago and she comes back to help. It is a small world after all.

In my life time, I have seen in person, Elvis, Jackson Five and the Beatles. Needless to say, the death of Michael Jackson at 50 is tragic. Life is so precious and we must value each day.

Saturday, June 27, 2009: Wimbledon

Yesterday Bob & Mike won in the second round against J. Brunstrom and J. Rojer: 6-0, 6-2 6-4,

Roger Federer lost one set.

Serena Williams almost didn't make it to her court on time--What happened? Was waiting for an escort--- In the past she always had an escort come and get her-- let's go. Good that she went out in time--- won 6-3 and 6-4.

Today Venus Williams plays Carla Suarez Navarro from Spain. Hewitt ( who won the River Oaks Tournament in April of 09) will play Philipp Perzchner of Germany.

Suggest, always read the Chronicle-- have good coverage.

Continue to be a new success.

June 25th, 2009: SWIMMING/WIMBLEDON

Today was the last day of Session One-- Summer Swimming Classes at Klein High School.

Parents, students and admin. worked together for a a great eight days. Beg. I, Beg. II, Beg. I, Beg.II & Advanced. Students and Coach took lots of photos and we smiled & smiled. We had a great learning experience in a short amount of time. Session II starts Monday, June 29th and I am booked solid. So booked that I am teaching a 7:20a.m. class for Beg. II and Adv. combined. I am more of a morning person. After teaching 6 classes, I leave at 12:10. Works for me. (Session three is also closed, over booked--hard to say no to repeat folks year after year)

HAVE YOU BEEN KEEPING UP WITH WIMBLEDON?

Hope that you have been able to watch many of the matches. Just reading an article about Maria Sharapova and her come back after shoulder surgery.

Keep me in the know, August will be here before we know it. Be careful of the heat---thank goodness that I am in an indoor pool and the temp. is 82 with fans and open garage doors. Perfect for me--remember, my classroom did not have air for seven months. This is a great change of pace for me.

June, 19th, 2009

Session I and the first week of teaching swimming at Klein High went swimmingly well.

Kids want to learn and love it when I am the shark. I love to bite toes.

Five more weeks to go. Husband goes with me and helps with parents and paperwork-- I teach for four hours and 5 classes--then I take him out to eat and I nap for 3 hours-- works for me.

Don't forget that Wimbledon starts the 22nd of June. Be sure to watch and root for Bob and Mike Bryan. This family has been very good to us over the last nine plus years. Know that they will come on strong and hard. This is their time to be a net success! Nadal may be out due to ailing knees. Lost to Hewitt in an exhibition yesterday--- remember Hewitt won in River Oaks Tournament in April when Bob and Mike won first place in doubles.

First, the American and his twin brother,Mike, blew a big lead in the men's doubles semifinals Thursday and were upset 0-6, 7-6(5), 6-4 by the unseeded pairing of 38 year old Dick Norman & Wesley Moodie. "Obviously a difficult start to the day. Very strange loss," Bob Bryan said. " Heart breaker. Unexplainable." Then he went out and teamed with Houston resident Liezel Huber to win the mixed doubles title.

Johnathan & La Shun text ed me from Barbara Jordan Park-- they are serious about being first doubles for the 2009--2010 school year. Know that Bakari & Ja Marcus are going strong.

June 4th, 2009: Inaugural Commencement Exercises: Class of 2009 North Forest High School

Coach Hrncir found out Thursday morning that she was suppose to be on the stage at graduation as Teacher of the Year. Dr. Barlett, 08-09 Teacher of Year, loaned me a black gown and I ran to the store for a pair of black heels. Connie & Sara helped me get checked out and got me organized. I did get checked out before graduation.

Ariel Brown, 4 year tennis player and senior class president, was the Mistress of ceremony-- I was so proud. Joshua Fleming and Tim Edwards-- top two senior guys with me for 4 years-- also marched. Proud of my seniors and it was such a good feeling to be on the stage.

Our Guest Speaker was U.S. Congresswoman Shelia Jackson Lee--18th Congressional District of Texas. She was outstanding in her presentation. She involved the students, they are number one and they are the first NFHS Class--we survived combining schools and IKE--we can survive anything that life has to offer.

I REALLY ENJOYED THE ADVENTURE & WAS SO PROUD OF MY SCHOOL AND DISTRICT.
Shelia Jackson held my hand and thanked me for teaching our children.

To top that off, our daughter, Dawn, works for GSA on the 16th floor and wanted me to tell her that her staff was very nice.

This is a small world-- and it takes a village.

Son from the marines is home for two weeks and we are taking a brief vacation to Seaworld.
Summer Swimming classes start at Klein High this year on June 15th. My 14th year-- the time does fly.

Tennis players, keep me up on your adventures this summer. You have my numbers and e mail.
Be Safe.
