Volleyball, 1-2

Played last night at 7:00 p.m. (finally a non 9:00 p.m. game)against "Fun Size".  We lost the first game, probably 13-21 or something similar.  We won the second game 22-20 and lost the third 14-16, I think.  We played pretty well, overall. 

I managed to get my first decent spike in a couple of seasons.  No issues jumping, or raising my right arm.  It's nice to be fully functional again.
