roadblock

you can only battle so long when defeat of the defeat  over comes -- morning session three losses in row - two wins by default so not really wins-- i will wait till just before lunch to try again --another three games  

Bob

couple wins  this afternoon--then a couple of losses  not much headway -- but better than three losses in row  off till super time now 

tuesday morning wake up a little ruff today coffee in hand and a very light tai chi warm up  really don't feel good today yet -- the sun is rising  its looking good -- but massive amounts of snow coming later today  but the grand children are coming for dinner and a piano lesson--so good to bad to good to bad to good  to well lets see what my early morning session of three games looks like --thinking about going back to 5 min games - but will stick to 10 min games this session --

here we go 

Yes. I have 2067 rapid and over 2700 puzzles.

tuesday morning was two win one loss -- ok i guess really had one good win the lose was agianst a better thinker than me the one win i really don't know why he quit -- but we take it i guess -- maybe just before lunch session will go better-- and i won't meet so many aggressive opening players - i don't have a chance against those   

thanks for advice mattk2013 -- iam little over whelmed by what you said --well confused really the post would have be more helpful had you had the game and did analysis from the game-- what i did wrong from there-- mostly from the sound of your post was all wrong but thanks again- i do appreciate the time taken-  

this afternoon sessions went ok-- couple wins couple of draws and of course a couple of losses 

meds kicking in right now off to nap back in about 2 hours - my losses where to very aggressive players - winning in first couple of moves -- can't compete against those -- not yet anyways 

im heated! 

losing streak, okay refocus

might have to go pump some iron this is funny how they are playing so accurately finding great moves and im missing em, well maybe i know why

losing too many games to fast attack charlies  have no recourse  that i see was doing ok tonight till i meet a few of the exgressive  type players i have no defense trying to set up my reg defense  while  they come in a attack my king -- oh well another day tomorrow

Wednesday morning snow starting to build up outside from this storm - coffee in hand -- need to shovel the driveway in a hour or so -- its takes  a lot longer these days than when i was in my prime - even with a snow blower -- but wind is too high to use it today -- will just do a little  shoveling at a time then come in and play a game or two then go back out -- here the temp is strating to rise making snow heavy wet -- so even more precautions to heed-- here we go -- -

remember slow slow slow and steady    

off to shovel snow well the front porch only for now -- got two wins and one loss- actually i think i won those two because the other person just made more blunders than me -- which i saw IN advance--- back just before lunch for another three games maybe better play on my part 

I know, maybe I said too much because of your rating level.

afternoon sessions--- won  a couple-- lost a couple -- driveway needs to be redone now so off to do that and then a small nap then back here for a couple more games  before dinner 

before supper sessions went very very badly -- back to basement again three losses in row -- i guess i shouldn't play tired from all the snow removal in the driveway -- oh well maybe after supper i can gain some traction -- or end up in the 100 basement again

How will doker celebrate when he soon breaks through 200? 

well breaking through to 200 will be when iam dead and gone and dust to the wind - but if i could get to that - a nice dinner with a steak and mushrooms and sour cream and a nice white wine from anywhere from chile , brussels sprouts  grilled sotayed in white cream sauce  

and to top it off  a slice ( big slice ) of german forest cake 6 six inchs high with at least four layers with french vanilla ice cream 

since my illness we have been on a  partial veg diet( with fish every three days )- this is  also due to my wife having high blood pressure  and cholesterol and meds don't work on her -- so no meat for us - 

so if i get to 200 - its off to a steak house for me --with or without my wife

its Thursday morning coffee in hand --driveway cleared from storm --  snow not so bad last night -- wife at store grocery shopping ( got to buy those chick peas and fufuf stuff and substitute rice products) so maybe a good three games or so ---maybe ????

just a couple games ok -- some i played badly  some just ok - off for a while till before lunch
