The views are getting lower and my available time is getting less and less.

I'll do my best to keep up with the Dailies, but it's harder for me to get this done. Last season I stopped posting my blog in April, not long after the championship game. I was hoping I would keep on going.

So, if you have my main link you can keep on checking, even if I don't post my Dailies link in the usual places.

Thanks!!!! DD

Polly made it to the third round winning 44-26 over Tulsa Women's Softball!!!!!

Now they are up against her former team!!!! UConn women's 2016 championship team beat the UConn baseball team to make the third round. It would have been nice if they had them on opposite sides of the brackets!!!

It's 72-13 for Polly. Keep on voting! Great job!!! Looks like she will be going into the final matchup against the Houston golf team. The good news is they only have 48 votes so far.
