Day 68

Weight- 263lbs

I woke up this morning and went to the doctor to see about a problem I have been having for quite awhile now and have just been living with it because it didn't bother me that much. My throat pops in and out of place occasionally. It is kind of an off and on problem that has been more on then off lately. The doctor really had never seen this before so he referred me to a ENT specialist. So I will go to that appointment tomorrow hopefully he will know what is going on. They took my blood pressure (which was a little high the last time I took it when I finished my last challenge) I was at 141/86 I think which she said was pretty good. She also took my pulse and said I had a slow heart beat which I took as a good thing.

After my doctors appointment I went to the gym and spent 20 minutes on the stair mill had a really good workout. It was the type of cardio workout where you want to quit after 5 minutes and just push through it. After the gym I went to Sam's to stock up on some food, then back home to get ready for work.

Work went by pretty quick which was nice. I got in my car after work and noticed that a couple of CD cases sitting on my passenger seat (not where I left them.) I thought it was kind of odd but just thought my room mate who also works at the Mart must have been looking for something of his he left in my car. So I gave him a call he said he wasn't in my car I immediately looked down and noticed my CD players face plate was missing. The last week or so I hadn't been locking my car because it the door locks got stuck again. Tuesday I picked up new locks that I was going to change out tomorrow. One day too late, oh well. I was really mad driving home with no music just made it worse. I wished I had gone out to my car for lunch and caught the person who did it. Thinking about it just made me angrier. So I decided to say a couple of prayers for the person, because he obviously is troubled and doesn't have a very good life. Whether the prayers help him or not they helped me cool down. The funny thing is I had my locks sitting on the passenger seat if he would have stolen those he could have gotten $40 bucks or so from them on Ebay.

Long day tomorrow so I better hit the hay!

Day 66

Weight-267lbs

Today went well at work sales have been pretty good the end of this month. After work we went to Rugby it started raining and there was some lightning so we headed for shelter and waited till it passed. After it passed we went back to rucking drills. Dave and I went against each other and I squared up and lowered my shoulder as he made contact hit heads and I split my ear open. Really it was my fault more than his I just need to learn how to take a hit, it is different than football without helmets. So that was the end of practice for me. I went to the ER and had it glued up also got my tetanus shot updated. It wasn't bad just can't have any contact for a week which sucks. Now I am cooking for tomorrow and doing a little homework before bed.
