Week off:)
April 19th, 2008
Hello everyone!
I am hoping that you are all doing great and having a fabulous spring thus far! The weather seems to be warming up and bringing great smiles to everyone! Of course, back home in BC, I know a little snow came to visit. But it will melt soon, I promise!! Just a little extra water to make the courses green, eh!
Since I last wrote, I have been to Morelia, Mexico, and then to Orlando, Florida. Mexico was a fun week filled with lots of ups and downs. Hills to climb, tough shots to conquer, and mental toughness to manage. As I am sure you saw, I did have a bit of a hard time tackling it all!! Oh well, always learning positive things from every experience! I think if I just stopped at hole 14 everyday I would have had a great week! ha ha At least I did make the cut and made some money to cover the week, right??
If you were wondering what else is going on, I have been having trouble with my lower back. I was feeling a bit sore before the Mexico event… probably from all the travel that I have been doing:) I had a few wrong swings during my rounds, and managed to tweek it a bit beyond comfort(hips are a little out of place and the muscles have got quite tight). Since then, I have been trying to get it to loosen up with lots of help from our great LPGA PT’s. I tried the Tuesday qualifier in Orlando but did not do well. Hard to play when you are feeling about 50%. I would not highly recommend it!!
The rest of this week I have been hanging in Florida with friends and also getting some rest. No golf swings for a couple more days. I will head home on Monday and practice and get ready for the upcoming tourneys—while also building up a stronger back! My next destination will be Tulsa, OK. I am not in this event yet but I will be playing in the Monday qualifier. I will be staying with friends locally so that may give me the edge I need!?!:)
Lots of hockey watching going on in the evenings still..my Canucks are golfing now unfortunately, but I am still cheering for good games throughout each series! The Stanley Cup is very much up for grabs and I have no idea who to cheer for!?!
That is about all for now. Please let me know if you have some good questions for me as the year progresses! I hope to be able to keep in contact with all of you.
Words of Wisdon for the week…Be greatful for everything and everyone in your life! Each of you is special and lucky in so many ways! I know I am!
Be in touch again soon! Luv AJ

Hi AJ.
I briefly met you at the pool in Ko’Olina at the resort we were both at back in February this year. I was disappointed I didn’t have a chance to chat with you more, as my daughter had me running after her…as per usual:)
I’m looking to upgrade my clubs and I wondered if you had a recommendation? I’ve used Taylor Made R7’s on a couple different occasions and was pleased…but beyond that I’m hesitant to buy a set of clubs based on a couple experiences. Any thoughts? By the way if you’re ever in Alberta I’d love to finish our chat!…maybe even on a course!
This isn’t much of a “comment” hey? Sorry. Thanks for your time.
-Kim
