Welcome, Lois!

Very glad that you found our group. We are a really caring, smart, funny

bunch.

So sorry to hear about your coaching position with the volleyball team.

You're right, most of the time, it's not worth fighting with jerks.

I played volleyball, basketball, and softball in high school and softball

and basketball in grade school. I can relate to loving a sport and feeling

upset about the pain that comes with playing now.

Hope you are feeling better about things today.
