Toby and the Gators

Toby is playing fall ball. Yep, he had his first practice tonight. He has never played any type of organized sport or even a backyard sport for that matter. We signed him up late but they had room. His coach is from Florida and of course is a Florida Gators fan. No prob with that here! chomp, chomp

The coach and his assistants seem to be very good with young kids. Toby is the tallest one on the team. He did very well. The coaches took him off to the side and taught him each thing individually while the others were practicing. See the practice season had already started. Some kids have played before of course. They have a scrimmage game Saturday.

He had alot of fun. he hit the ball well too considering it was his first time. They practiced running bases at the end of practice. I told Toby he was going to have to run faster. I told him he needed to run like a dog was chasing him because he would have been caught by a dog tonight.


I had a 95% pain free day today. I have hurt for a long time now. I worked my tail off today. I was afraid I might have overdid it. I'm gonna sleep good tonight. We have a new guy at work. He is an older man and says he's an electrician. I say this because he is obviously experienced and not a helper. I ran circles around him today. Seriously I ran about 4 times as much conduit as him. I love working hard and getting alot done. It's a competitive thing for me.
