John belongs to a bowling league with one of his sisters. Nice as I get that morning to myself. ;-)


I used to bowl occasionally and really enjoyed it, but never wanted to make the committment to join a league. My first DH wouldn't bowl with me because I always beat him.
My second DH wouldn't bowl with me either because I usually beat him too!
Now, mind you, I was not that good..they just really sucked at bowling!! LOL!!


Now my back won't let me do "real bowling", but I am able to do Wii bowling and that is so much fun! One day we may get our

Yeah, I bowl occasionally. I'm an erratic bowler, meaning I can go from Turkey (three strikes in a row) to non-stop gutters. All caused by me twisting my wrist instead of a straight release.

Hubby has been banned from playing any bowling games in the house since he busted the HDTV that was only 6 months old last December. After we got the new set, I took his games away.

Oh and my average can be anywhere from 56 to just over 100.
