With 2017 behind us, it is time to look forward with hope and anticipation for 2018. 2017 had many ups and downs on and off the course. However, now is the start of something awesome.
I will create the year I want and will be grateful for all the blessings in my life.
I hope you and your special loved ones have a healthy and joyous new year in 2018!
As 2017 comes to a close, I cannot help but look back and realize how fast time flies. This was a banner year at The Grateful Golfer. I exceeded all expectations, met all milestones and still have the desire to keep writing about golf. Mostly, it I want to thank each and every person who stopped by to say hello. I am continually impressed by the positive feedback and suggestions, for this I am grateful.
As the anticipation grows for Christmas Day, it is easy to become wrapped up in the craziness of the holiday season. It is a time for fun, laughter, and good times for many. Luckily, I am one because I have a blessed life and find Christmas time enjoyable and refreshing. I am grateful for all the amazing people in my 3 foot space!
This is a time for reflection and gratitude for the blessings in my life. Each year, I am amazed by my sense of happiness when I spend time with family and friends. Of course, this is not the same feeling for everyone and for those who are finding this time of year very difficult, I will be sending you positive thoughts in the hopes that it may bring some relief to your troubled times.
I realize that this is a golf blog and I intend on getting back to the main topic after Christmas. However, I choose the word grateful as part of the name for this blog to remind me that everyday, I create the day I want! And to do this, expressing gratitude is my first step.
I hope your day is full of fun and laughter. Remember that you still have one more day to be nice; if you are not, Santa just might leave you a lump of coal in your stocking instead of golf balls!
I am a grateful golfer! Enjoy your holidays!
I love the Christmas season. The winter wonderland, the sharing of happiness and joy, and spending time with the special people in my life. Although there is no golf, I will take the time to enjoy some outdoor activities, visiting, and being grateful. For me, it is also the time to give back to the community and to share some of my good fortune by donating to charities, the food bank, and just smiling at those I might encounter. The spirit of Christmas is all around us and I for one am happy to embrace it. Continue reading
The holiday season is upon us and I am excited to for the fun festivities to start. If you schedule is anything like mine, you will be invited to several parties where tasty morsels will be tempting you at every turn. It is a great fun and not good for my golf game. If I am not careful, January will be spent trying to shed those 10 pounds I received for Christmas. Continue reading
