Work and Baseball

Had to work a 12 hour shift today which really kind of stinks.  I did manage to get a mile walk in when I went out to move my car.  It was hot, especially in scrubs but I am glad I did it because right after work I went to the JC Cards ballgame.    Here is how I found my son when I got to the game:

Hanging by the bullpen .....  trying to collect baseballs.   He LOVES trying to collect baseballs from the players, along with foul balls that other kids chase down.    He's quite proud!  (I won't mention how many baseballs we have managed to bring home this season.)

I had to remind him not to hassle the players during the game.    The game wasn't too great for us since the Cards started off allowing 7 runs the first inning.   The only good thing about the game was that the temps were down tonight so I was not soaking in sweat just sitting watching the game like I have the last few games.  During the bottom of the 8th the lights decided to go out - well some of the lights....

J has been on a mission to get all the JC Cardinals to sign a little wooden bat.  He has done quite well and gotten most of the team.  Well during the little delay for light problems he decided to work on his signatures.  Here he is looking at his roster to see who he's missing.  He did manage to get 2 that he didn't have yet!

MAD (mile-a-day):  Just got the 1 mile at work done today.  I thought about trying to get another mile or two in after we got home from the game but it went too late and I didn't want to walk at 10:30 at night, in the dark, by myself.  Didn't want to run into any monsters!    Hoping to head to bed here very soon!  So glad to have the next two days off!
