A lil' glimpse into what I'm doin', thinkin', and dreamin'!
Day 60--April 22, 2008

Woke up at 9:15 A.M.


No flying today.


Hit up a couple of baseball games at the community college in town.  The weather was just about perfect!  I drove there at first, but then decided that a run would feel good, so I drove back to the airport, then ran back to the game!


Was there from 1:00-5:00-ish.


Came back, changed some clothes, then headed out to the farm.  Hit golf balls with the boys in the pasture, then came in for another stellar meal.  We had white rice, some amazing meat and vegetable mixture to go on top, a fancy salad, some flat noodles, sweet potatoes, and of course, tea.  And I kid you not, this is what I hear...


"I didn't fix much tonight, since I was gone most of the day.  So remember that..."


Um, yeah, about that.  Oh, and I forgot to mention that we followed that up with frozen strawberry pie, which was followed up with ice cream and fresh strawberries.  And that went on top of two cupcakes I had a few hours earlier in the pasture.


I was full.


Played a little "mailbox race game" that just about did me in.  The family has all raced from a seat at the supper table, out to the mailbox and back.  And they have a long driveway.  I was challenged.


It took me 1:00.22.  But I was dying.  On top of the runs and sprints from earlier and on top of all the food, I was so drained.  I came back inside and laid on the floor, then on the couch!  It took the last bit out of me!


Played cards with the fam until midnight.  After a few days, I was finally dethroned from winning.  And they were quite happy to be a part of that!


Came back soooooo tired.  Actually, moreso exhausted than tired.  My body is spent.


Went to bed at 12:35 A.M.
