I was just getting ready for bed and realized that I forgot to weigh myself yesterday morning, perhaps that was a good thing. I just weighed myself now and the results are not very good. At this moment I weigh 286 pounds. I have to admit I kind of expected that though as I have been eating take out a lot this past week. This is due to not having food at home for the most part and just simply craving things like pizza. I have also been craving Sushi a lot lately, though I have not been getting it. Ever since I found out that I like it I have been wanting to have more of it, I don’t know if it is just because it is something new or if it is really that good. LOL. Although if I were to start eating a lot of Sushi that may help with the weight gain issue too. Hrm…maybe I am on to something here….

Riding Season Ends
That was one of the coldest motorcycle rides I have ever taken! It’s 40 degrees out and raining, so it must have been a good time to bring the motorcycle over to Chuck’s house for the winter, as he is being so kind to let me keep it in his pole barn again this year. I think last year when I brought it to Chuck’s it was cold then too, I remember it was definitely raining harder, though it might have been a little warmer. It’s kind of sad though, because I hardly got to ride at all this season due to the weather and other things not allowing for the time. Even though it was a very cold ride, it was still nice to be back on the road. However, it had been so long since I last rode that I had to jump start it three times before it would stay running, that is the most I have ever had to jump it. Hopefully next season I will get to ride more than this season, but in reality any ride time is better than none.
Jungle Java Time
Kylie and I went to Jungle Java today so that Kylie could get some good play time in even though it is getting cold out. Although Kylie had been there before with Mommy, it was Daddy’s first time going and I have to say I was very impressed with the place. Jungle Java is basically a giant indoor playground with plenty of room for the parents to sit and read a book or drink coffee or just relax and watch the kids play. Parents can even climb through and play in the jungle if they want. I brought a book to sit and do some reading and watch Kylie play with all the other kids. We had eaten before we went there so we didn’t buy anything from the little cafe they had there, but perhaps next time we might go for lunch and for play time. I was a little surprised when I looked at the time and realized we had been there for 4 hours but Kylie had a blast and the time went by really quick. There was a continuous flux of kids there for her to play with (there were a few birthday parties going on) and at one point one of her classmates (Jeremiah) even showed up, so Kylie constantly had kids to play with. This alone is a big bonus over just going to the park because sometimes there are other kids there for her to play with and sometimes there are none; and she clearly enjoys herself more when there are other children to play with. It cost $6.50 for Kylie to play there (parents are free) with no limit on the amount of time she plays, and after 4 hours that comes out to $1.63 an hour. Let’s see, she is playing inside like she could play outside at the park if the weather were warmer, in a safe warm environment with other children to play with, which also has the availability of food, drink, and bathrooms; yeah I think that is worth the price. I am sure that we will try to go there again over the coming cold months, as it will sure beat staying at home and watching TV all the time; or the other limited indoor activities that we can do. Maybe next time I’ll even climb around the Jungle.
It continues
I guess I made up for not gaining any weight last week as today I weighed in at 283.4. I’m a little sad by this because I thought I was eating better this past week than I had been. I haven’t been getting as much exercise though, which is hard to believe that I could get any less, but with the colder weather coming I haven’t been, and don’t think I will be doing as much walking as I was. I am going to need to find a way to offset this and supplement it with something else. I have been saying it for a while now, but perhaps now I really need to get the Wii Fit back out.
