Finally Friday Morning Thread

Floridaboiler · Aug 27, 2010

Good Morning,
 I had planned to go to bed early last night but did I? Noooooooooooo I was up until almost 10:30. Damn It. Now I am tired again. I had planned on 6 miles this morning again, but now it might be 5.
 
Later.

eric,
wish I could have sent you some of our perfect [low humidity, low temps] weather from this week
 
 
today is the last 'nice' day...then the HHH are back, just in time for the first week of school *gak*
 
I'll be doing more outdoor chores today. Gotta take advantage of it being lovely outside!
 
I can't work in my room because the carpets/floors are being cleaned. <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/mad.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;" title="">
Rhetorical Q: why does the school district wait till three days before the start of the new year to hire a company to move all of our furniture into the halls...clean the floors...then just dump our stuff back in?? We've already been in to set up, and now have to do it all over again?? FVCK!
 
reason # 576 as to why I need to retire at the end of this school year

wow, porty, that is just nuts!
 
not much sleep last night. could not turn the ol' mind off. oh well. gotta go to work in about an hour, then if i feel up to it, a run, if not, oh well

ToddEP · Aug 27, 2010

Morning.
 
Porty, it was a bit warmer here yesterday than I thought it was going to get. The run this morning, when I get around to it, will be 'ok', but Sunday's run will be back in the HHH. I. AM. NOT. HAPPY.
 
Eric~what did you end up running? 5 or 6?
 
Meri~how many miles this afternoon?
 
Ideally, I would love to run close to 10 this morning. Realistically, I haven't a clue. I feel some twinges in my right Achilles and ankle.

It's Friday, but nothing good about it. I've been up since 2:00am having to deal with various computer alarms in the office since I'm on call this week. At 3:00am I had to drive in during a driving rainstorm to bring up some processors that had gone down.
 
I stopped by Dunkin Donuts and picked up a dozen donuts on the way in at 8:00 this morning. We'll see how the rest of the day goes.

Todd- i generally do a 4.5 mile loop round the 'hood. I am so tired though, I may bail on it. I have a little race this weekend, so good excuse

Just cranked out 10 here! I may just skip running on Sunday...we will see how much the guilt kicks in.

I didn't even look at son1's tuition when we scheduled classes. I don't wanna know....... Sons 2&3 are both in public school this year. I paid far more for school supplies than I ever did for home schooling. So much for this "free" education! Luckily, son4 (home schooled) doesn't need any books this year.
 
We've had enough cool damp days to spike the mold count. I'm allergic to mold and quite miserable. Just took some allergy meds and will be heading back to bed promptly!

coachie · Aug 27, 2010

Holy Crap that makes me feel old! I remember this happening.
