| OHCC LIVING | FEBRUARY 2021 | 31 Just in case: Check with your club contact to confirm meeting place, date, and time. Bocce Club Commentary on the year that was… or is coming… 1. The dumbest thing I ever bought was a 2020 planner. 2. I was so bored I called Jake from State Farm just to talk to someone. He asked me what I was wearing. 3. 2019: Stay away from negative people. 2020: Stay away from positive people. 4. The world has turned upside down. Old folks are sneaking out of the house, and their kids are yelling at them to stay indoors! 5. This morning I saw a neighbor talking to her dog. It was obvious she thought her dog understood her. I came into my house and told my cat. We laughed a lot. 6. Every few days try your jeans on just to make sure they fit. Pajamas will have you believe all is well in the kingdom. 7. Does anyone know if we can take showers yet or should we just keep washing our hands? 8. This virus has done what no woman has been able to do. Cancel sports, shut down all bars, and keep men at home! 9. I never thought the comment, "I wouldn't touch him or her with a 6-foot pole" would become a national policy, but here we are! 10. I need to practice physical distancing from the refrigerator 11. I hope the weather is good tomorrow for my trip to the Backyard. I'm getting tired of the Living Room. 12. Never in a million years could I have imagined I would go up to a bank teller wearing a mask and asking for money. But here at OHCC, we still get to play Bocce! Roll on! The Presidents Frame: Congratulations to Dea Abdelaziz and Mike Simons for 14 bocces each this month. This is Dea's first year on the board as VP and Mike chairs our Tournament committee (yes, we will have tournaments this year). This is the first time we had a woman and a man tied for high bocce count for the month. (I'll let you know next month if it is possible to find out if it ever happened before December 2020). We gave you 12 humorous thoughts. Think you have a good one? Submit yours (one per email please) to Bob Goldstein (the only time you get to reply to him – but only him (use reply, NOT REPLY ALL please). If they're fit to print, we will include them in the next edition. Say hi and thank you to Bob for his monthly great writing for the members and the OHCC magazine and his lovely wife Fran Goldstein. And thank you to Jean Meeks for collecting the bocce counts every month and to Dea and John Abdeliziz for collecting the bocce sheets and summarizing them each month. If you have a suggestion or comment for play, courts, tournaments, league, email Jackie at jackie.ohs@outlook.com with the subject Bocce OHCC. If you know someone who wants to join the bocce club, let them know there are New Member Forms in the sheet protector in our bulletin board at the courts.
