Week 2 Day 1

It was a very eventful day. For breakfast I had a bowl of cereal (40 minutes after I took Max WLX). I had a cup of yogurt for lunch. For dinner I had a french dip sandwich with some homemade french fries. I had water to drink.

In the middle of making dinner the over began to flicker PF (Power Failure) several times. I opened the oven door to inspect what was going on. When I opened the door the light in the oven began to come on and off erratically. At that moment Aleece heard a popping sound coming from the basement. She said it was the circuit breaker so I ran downstairs to investigate. When I opened the basement door there was sparks flying from the ceiling onto the floor and nearly starting a fire. I ran over to the source and could see that it was the wire running through a truss that had exploded and was just about to set the truss on fire. I blew out the flame and ran over to the breaker box and flipped the breaker to the oven. That stopped the sparking, I got the wire out of the truss and Aleece had already called the fire department. They came out and inspected the electrical work and made sure that no more problems would occur. During all the inspecting we sat in the back of a warm ambulance. We are so grateful we were home when ths happened and that it was very minimal damage.

For exercise yesterday I mowed the lawn which took an hour. I played basketball last night for about an hour and a half. I felt a little lethargic at basketball I am not sure it I got zapped by the 220 electric line and didn't feel it at the time because of the adrenalin.

To your success
