Pickled Babes and Dudes Newsletter
January 2016 Newsletter Number 2
Monthly Dinner
1. Find a place - request for 50 people.
2. Send out ecard with all the the email addresses using evite (just copy and paste, they go in in ONE click.) I will give you editing rights to the google doc that people sign up online.
3. Contact restaurant about the count (the evite will have exact count)
4. Arrive 15 minutes early to ensure all is fine.
Of course I can help out, but I need to pass the torch to someone else.

Newbie Villager Syndrome
The first column was the absolutes. Things and activities that I was either already committed to or family commitments. I am a webmaster to four organizations. My mother lives here and maintaining her life enters in on a daily basis. We have a new puppy and of course I want to enjoy time with my husband, Steve.
The second column was things that I had a passion for. Like my music and activities with my husband. It's all about your passion. Stress is not being busy, but doing things you don't really want to do. Passion lets you forget the time and even day!
The final column was things that could easily be dropped. Things I was doing for "fun."
It was a difficult decision, since this Pickleball group was the first people I got to know and shared my "firsts" with my new life in The Villages.
This is NOT a reflection of the group or my desire to be a part of it. I just wish there was more time in the day. But, Pickleball has jumped to the third column, something I can easily drop.
I will still continue to keep all of your informed with the groups Pickleball news, but I am taking a step back from the monthly dinners and playing two times a week.
Thank you one and all!!
