Making It Up As I Go Along #371 (week)

Story is delayed. Here’s the week but things have been busy. I hope to have a story done by Saturday night.

THURSDAY...
— Work is alright. Not super busy but I’m sort of tired too so nothing wonderful either.
— Rainy and windy today... rains out our fastpitch game tonight. Just as well in the middle of day shift for me... and it allows me to spend time with Ruby and Lee when they arrive tonight. We do a small supper and chat some.

FRIDAY...
— Sleep well but work is a bit off. I eat too much or something not right or something... the stomach has lead in it for much of the day.
— Supper with Ruby and Lee and then a movie with Lee.
— Some stay up late time for me... tired but pushing through.

SATURDAY...
— Quiet day with getting up around 10:00 and some TV with a nap in the afternoon.
— Off to work in the evening. Get pizza there with Terry and Phil and work is pretty quiet for tonight.

SUNDAY...
— Quiet around the house for me before work. Some TV and a nap.
— Work is quite quiet tonight. Just me. In fact, after 11:30, I’m the only one in the building until some of the fools start wandering in at around 4:30. To voluntarily start your work day at 4:30 in the morning, when you could be doing it at 7:00 or 8:00, is a definite sign of a lack of a real life.

MONDAY...
— Sleep until 11:30, then up and at them... well... up... and at the TV for a bit. Still pretty tired and it’s cold outside!
— Fed up with the weather. Rain socks in this evening. All ball games are either getting rained out (already two fastpitch games rained out) or in the cold. We’re rained out tonight... big surprise, we aren’t informed until arriving at the field. Blah!

TUESDAY...
— Downtown with Ruby for a bit, then meet Lee for lunch and a quiet evening at home. Watch some hockey to end the night, maybe Pittsburgh can make a series of it.

WEDNESDAY...
— Quiet early day. Ruby and Lee go to lunch while I go to the dentist. They come back with a BBQ. So now I have a nice little electric BBQ for the balcony. Burgers tonight... summer is here.
— Play RCMP slowpitch. We lose but I get a chance to hit the ball around some. My defense in the outfield is not what it used to be. Let a few balls get through me and my arm, although improving from a pain point of view on throws, is very much an infielder arm. The long tosses just aren’t there right now.

THURSDAY...
— To Melissa’s with Ruby in the day, then lunch and a walk around the pond.
— Ball tonight. I do badly. Got a hit but made two errors and a mental mistake that’s as good as an error, and we lose. The return to fastpitch comes with bumps.
