Thanks to all.
I went to the meeting last night. Very few people showed up. I live in southern California and there were torrential rains and windstorms so I can understand why. I left early. And wound up drinking last night.
I will be back tomorrow - Sunday.
Realistically it won't be until Monday when I'll see the guys I wan't to sign on as sponsor.
The higher power thing doesn't bother me. I pray all the time anyway. Mainly "help me" and "thank you".
LadyBlue - it does bug me when they hang on every syllable. It bothers me when folks do that with the bible too. I just don't want a sponsor that expects me to be that way. It won't work.
I guess I want to look at the sponsor as a coach. I've seen athletes blossom with a particular coach so that idea looks good to me.
Plus, athletes change coaches all the time.
It's finally hitting me that I've got to at least give it a real try. Seeing it help so many makes me have a little hope.
