I have been super busy lately. Since I last posted, I have been bowling pretty well. We won league champions on one of my leagues. I have been to Greater Ozarks open, Kansas State (where I got a check for 33rd place in singles), Four State open (waiting on that check in team event), Southwest tournament in Wichita (where I took 18th in singles), National USBC (where I shot 629 in singles, and expect some money), and 3 Regional PBA events (Raytown, Belton, and Junction City). I got sick the night before Junction City, and took dead last. I won the RedLeader Award (private joke between Trevor Gorton, John Gould and I). I am bowing two summer leagues, an Experience league in Missouri at Premier with at least a dozen of my PBA buddies, and a Royals ticket league in Topeka with my wife.

Also, I have gone back to college. I may have posted this, but I am finishing up two degrees, one in Organizational Leadership, and one in Information Networking and Technology, both online programs from Ft. Hays University, here in Kansas. I had an Associates of Science from Barton County Community College's Ft. Riley campus, but decided to complete my Bachelors' degrees.

Also, I have my kids a lot this spring and summer. My oldest is almost 15, and is here half the summer. He has decided to follow in my footsteps, and will try out for his high school bowling team. He is also a football player, and runs track. My daughter, who is 12 next week, is here for four weeks during the summer. They have about 10 days that they are here together, otherwise, they are not here at the same time. My youngest, almost 3, is in daycare some days, and when his older siblings are here, stays home sometimes with me and them and we go do things like the zoo and swimming and a trip to Detroit to watch the wife bowl Women's nationals. I have also had my brother's oldest son for a couple days, and will be having his two oldest here next week for 5 days.

I will try to add some new photos soon, I have a ton.

Well, I hope all is well with everyone, and feel free to message me or comment and I will try to be better about getting back on here. Good luck bowling and in life, Dameon.

Alright, haven't been on here much. And, since I can't sleep, I might as well get on here and post.

Think I have figured some things out again. I have been bowling better, ever since I decided to show up at city tournament.

I didn't bowl the Tuesday the 29th of Jan, because I was sick again. Seems to be the habit this year, have been sick more than I have probably the last 5 years combined. Does anyone think that having a child in daycare could be the reason for this? He comes home sick, then mom and dad catch it....lol.

I shot a 657 on my Thursday night league January 31st. I only bowled 3 games that week.

I shot 661 Tuesday the 5th. I shot 628 on Thursday the 7th. I didn't bowl this Friday, even though I was supposed to. I had a guy at the center that wanted the day off, and I picked up his shift. I put in a total of 31 games this week.

My brother Duane threw a 290 game last week. My high last week was a 278. Oh well, I guess I will have to keep working on it....lol. Congrats little brother.

Talked to Nathan Bohr for a few minutes last night. He was out practicing with my team captain for my Thursday league, Russ Wilson, and his wife Kristal (formerly Scott, from the women's televised events).

I leave for the TQR this afternoon, since it is technically Tuesday morning. Will keep you posted on how I do this week.
