Close game/I ate spaghetti in my basement/Day 18
2011
It was a nail biter of a game for my 9 year daughter’s softball game last night. It was the 2nd playoff game, if we lost then the season was over… We started out kind of slow, the other team scored 6 runs to our zero runs. The 4th inning, we rally back, making 5 runs, so the score is 6-5. They 5th stays the same, the top of the 6th and last inning the other team gets three outs which leaves us one more inning to win the game. We tie the game up 6-6 and we have a runner on base and a great batter up to bat when all of a sudden…tornado sirens go off!! Everyone has to exit the field and go home immediately! At first we thought we would be able to make up the game tonight, but the next playoff game is tonight, so they have to call it where the score was the last full inning which was them on top! So close!
So since the tornado sirens were still going and it was getting super windy out, the whole family went in the basement and I bravely stayed in my kitchen to make dinner (at 8:45 last night!). I just made a simple marinara sauce and regular spaghetti, so when it was done everyone came up and dished up and headed back down to the basement to eat dinner! I took a smaller portion because I still had to do a workout!
I rode my bike to work, but left it because I got picked up for Claire’s game after work. That was only a 15 minute bike ride, so I wanted to do more than that. After it was safe to come upstairs, I cleaned the kitchen, Claire went to bed and I did an upper body workout with 8 pound weights, push ups and squats! I didn’t get finished until 10:00 p.m. But I was glad I did something else because honestly I just wanted to put my jammies on a sit on the couch and watch TV.
Day 18 out of 100 days of exercise is complete!
Come back tomorrow, you won’t believe what I am planning to do today for exercise! 
Have a super day everyone!!!

so… are results showing yet??? bulking up where you want, slimming down where you need to (not saying you need to)… do you have a verdict on your plan?
Thanks for asking Dave – my plan is to weigh and measure after 30 days and update everyone on my progress…I definitely feel better and feel smaller – so I think its working! :0)

Tornado sirens? I would have freaked. This Californian still prefers earthquakes over tornado warnings any day.
Too bad about the game – I’m sure Claire’s team totally would have won in the end.
Kudo to you for getting your workout on so late in the day. Not many people would have done that (points to self, for one).
