My friend tells me there are basketball leagues for women at the YMCA, so I plan to look into that. I'd also like to do water aerobics, so I'm checking out the programs available.

I'd like to play golf with my husband, but I'm not very good, and lose the ball a lot. So I need to practice--maybe join a league, before he "lets" me play with him. I'd like to do this as a family thing, because my two sons play golf, also.

I feel your pain on golf. I probably lose at least 5 balls over 18 holes. I never play enough and never had a passion for it. I know some day that will change when I am not physically able to play other sports like basketball, football and baseball
