Bad losses, and Reflection

It sometimes is hard to give updates. My brain goes dead and I can't incorporate enough words together to make a good post. But here goes nothing!

So Sunday we had a game and it was probably our most up and down game yet. First two sets we were playing great. Set 1 we lost barely because of simple mistakes. We cleaned up the simple mistakes in game 2 and were unstoppable. Game 3 we started well, but at the 8-5 break we were up and then we were down at the 16-15 break. Yeah and it went down hill after that. We seem to get in these funks where we just don't make it easy on ourselves. We make a lot of simple errors, don't put together good swings and miss serves. So we lose game 3 and get smashed in game 4. We are so close to getting the ball rolling, but we just fall short. I am hoping that one good strong win will get this funk outta the system and we will go on a strong roll.

Life in Belgium has completely gotten to the slowest it can be. We sleep in, go for walks, visit the bakery's and play cards all day. Then we have practice during the week and the games on weekends. It is such an awesome life to live. But, I sometimes feel like we are wasting our time. I could be working making good money, going to school or at least reading personal building books. But all in all this is time I will never get to have again. A nice time to relax and take it all in. I will call it early retirement :)

This has been a good opportunity for me and God. I have gotten to read my bible every day and feed on the Omniscience of God. So I guess it isn't a whole waste of time.....
