Play Ball!

Wednesdays for the next six weeks will be long days filled with work and the usual early rise, an afternoon nap (or perhaps my 3-6 exploratory obligation), and softball at night.  Last night, we didn’t get home until 11:30!  So I didn’t get to bed until midnight.  I’m not as tired as I thought I’d be.  But I am as sore as I expected!

It was very fun.  I was nervous.  Try-outs were all these super-testosterone guys brimming with confidence in their athletic abilities.  But the actual games last night weren’t so bad.  The guys are all very nice.  And for a rusty softball player like me, they did offer some advice and kept the support going throughout.  I did earn the nickname “Ryno” already.  And although we lost both games, I had a great time.  Plus, feeling sore kind of helps me look positively at the fact that I’m getting a work out and hopefully will shed some of these pounds.

Speaking of Pounds

 I’m now a proud member of Weight Watchers.  I remember that Jesse did the program and got GREAT results!  So Sarah and I are taking a stab at it and hoping to really get on track with getting healthy.  Especially if down the road we are going to have children.  I think while we have the money, we have the time (no kids) and we have each other to have fun with, then we should take care of ourselves.  Marriage is hard, but it’s also been such a fun adventure in the first 1 yr/4 months!  So cross your fingers and wish us well on this particular adventure.
