My Personal Back in the Saddle game
No, unfortunately, I didn't get to work with BITS. But I did crawl back onto the floor last night after taking last season off for, uh, personal reasons. I was really, really worried about it, of course, because I always worry a lot about everything. But it's like riding a bicycle, I suppose, and it all just flowed.

I made a couple of calls that were definitely the right calls, but the wrong signal. And I almost gave the ball to the wrong team on a held ball , but corrected it at the last possible instant.

I'm definitely NOT ready to get back to my old schedule. Nope, definitely NOT ready. but at least I may get there some day. THere was a time when I really wasn't sure I ever would.

Good for you and welcome back!

FYI - My first five games are all girls - and two are JV. I'm looking forward to em! A game is a game - and more experience for me!

You might want to phrase that differently.

Juulie - welcome back!

Hopefully refereeing is one way to making life seem "back to normal".
