fore!

I’ve  been pretty bad about blogging lately.

I did commentary for a golf tournament last weekend, I’m off to another one in about an hour or so. Honestly, I’m not much of a golfer. It seems fun, I’ve learned some stuff over the years, but it’s not exactly my main sport. But, these broadcasts have been pretty cool. I have the “golf voice” down. It’s kinda funny.

I think bottom line, I can’t wait for summer. In a few weeks I’m going to South Carolina for a big FitzGerald family vacation to stay at a house right on the beach! Lake activities are also really big around here so I can’t wait for that. Last year the fun was pretty much rained out, so I have to make up for lost time!

But this is what I’ve been musing over. So it seems like I’m always looking forward to the next thing. In a way I think that’s good, keeps me motivated at least, puts perspective on life. But sometimes I think I’m looking ahead so much I can (and often do) miss what’s right in front of me.

I guess it’s a contentment issue. I’ve been chewing on that concept for the past few years, and I think it boils down to balance. Recognizing what’s happening right now, but also looking ahead to press on towards what’s next. But then it’s also important, at times, not to worry about the future and focus right now. I guess it depends on the situation.

anyway… for now I need to focus on the eagle or birdie shot, not getting popped in the head with a golf ball… and talking at hushed tones.
