9-12-18: It is proving to be quite a challenge making time to work out. With all of the activities after work, spending time with the kids and still getting done what needs to around the house makes for long days.
This morning waking up was not a beast. Clock was showing 4:50 and was feeling awake and ready to go. Made some coffee and set the timer so when I am done downstairs I can rest with a cup of joe. Let the dog out and gave him a treat. After a short bathroom break I found myself in the work out room turning on ESPN to see if the Brew Crew beat the Cubs, they did not. Today is back, shoulders and biceps day. Started with lat pulldowns, moved on to lateral raises and finished with EZ curls. Time was getting tight and had to cut the treadmill time short.
At lunch I went over to the local driving range to hit a bucket of balls as some of the guys from work are golfing tonight. It probably sounds like I am a big golfer if you have been reading the blog. I am a learner. It is my third year and while I have gotten my swing to be ok the score has not been showing it. My goal is to become a bogey golfer and be able to make a couple of good shots and hold my own when on the coarse. Anyways, golf tonight will most likely involve a couple of tasty drinks. With skipping lunch lately I think it would be better if I have a little base before tonight. Take out is ordered from the bar after hitting the balls at the driving range. Hot roast beef with cheddar cheese on a hoagie bun and a side of pub fries. Usually this is a really good sandwich but it sat in the styrofoam container on my way back to the office and the condensation from the heat made the bun soggy. I ate half the meal and called it done.
Eight of us were golfing tonight. All of the PM’s, purchasing agent, and document control guy. It was a good time. My foursome was pretty even and we joked with each other. The four behind us thought they were pretty slick driving balls on our heels while we are taking our 2nd shots. After the round we ended up in the club house. The had corn hole set up inside and a few played. I sucked down one last beer and headed home.
