Read full storyGet Ready to Swing into Fun: Women’s Golf Day 2024 is Almost Here!
I have a love/hate relationship with golf. Maybe it's that my husband and son are so good at the game and won't let me play with them. Maybe it's that when I moved from Rhode Island to Florida I left my 9-hole girlies behind. But when I saw that Women's Golf Day was promoting a "Bring a Friend" campaign, I thought to myself "Hey, Zippy...maybe it's time to start again with a group of NEW friends. Friends who can laugh at themselves (unlike my husband and son) and actually have FUN on the course." If you're like me and have felt like you want to play, but on your own terms, OR you're good and have been trying to get a bestie to come with you, we're just four weeks away from teeing off for Women’s Golf Day (WGD) 2024! It's time to dust off those clubs, polish up that swing, and get ready to join the global celebration of women in golf.

This post contains links to products that I suggest. We do get a commission if you purchase through these links and thank you for doing so. I don’t know what I was thinking when I first moved to Florida. Having lived through blizzards with whiteouts, hurricanes, and nor’easters I figured that the Sunshine State would be…well, SUNNY. I arrived to get a 1–2–3 punch within a month of moving south. That’s right THREE HURRICANES in a row. I was living on the third floor in a beachfront condo and if you think that sand can’t get through sliders facing NORTH (like I thought), you’d be as wrong as I was. I had a living room full of sand, no power for a week, and no generator for the elevator. Yup, we roughed it for a while. It was a lesson learned.

I am not a Disney person. There I said it. If I were given the opportunity to vacation anywhere, Walt Disney World would be the last on my list. There was that one time that Mr. S. and I took the dog and went camping at Fort Wilderness. That was a lot of fun, but we never stepped foot into the theme parks. Maybe I just don’t like amusement parks, theme parks, rides, etc. But, that might change because…there’s a new LUXURY resort with a fabulous hotel set to open soon that has made my “must visit” list.

For those who don't know it, I somehow gave birth to a Rugger at the age of 30-something.

But, nothing prepared me for the fact that as a grown-a$$ man, he decided to play rugby. That's right this MAN who had a good job, a great life, with everything going for him decided that rugby was a good idea.
