<p>Good morning and Happy Friday!</p>
<p>Rest day for me today, just hitting some weights. Looks like it's going to be a hot one today, not looking forward to that. All I want to do is cruise through today then a half day tomorrow and I'm on vacation!</p>

<p>good morning!! TGIF!! I am up and couldnt sleep..worried about some friends! :(</p>
<p> </p>
<p>morning suds! enjoy that rest day!! and last day of work before vaca!! Are both girls home this summer? We had orientation last wk for ds1...hard to believe he will be moving into the dorms in 5wks! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>No running for me today, rest day!  Am going to try to get a strength work out in this morning...then  cleaning the house, will help ds2 mow the lawn, meals on wheels and then I am taking ds3 to the pool this afternoon!! Wish I could get some of it done now since I am up but I dont think my family will appreciate me cleaning at 4:30 am and the neighbors would prob call the cops if I started mowing! :)  Tomorrow I will have 6 miles and Sunday is 14! Going to be hot one this wkend too!</p>

<p>Sorry about the sf Nicole! Have you tried pool running at all too? I didnt mind it as long as I had a friend to chat with when I was doing it!! Good luck with that half training!</p>

<p>Good morning SB! Yes, both girls are home but between work and "going out" I don't see too much of them. Good luck getting DS set up, 5 weeks comes around faster than you expect.</p>
<p>Hope your friends are ok.</p>

<p>Morning guys - off to Raleigh this AM to get DH a new (used) car.  His blew a head gasket about 2 weeks ago and now the radiator is leaking water into the engine.  His current car is over 20 years old and has over 200K on it so it is time. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sudsy - where you going for vaca?  Is Tank coming along? </p>
<p>Staci - I am having problems flexing my foot so IDK about pool running.  May have to try it this time though b/c I have just about unlimited access to a pool!</p>

<p>Good morning Nicole! Good luck getting a car! Sounds like the old one did you pretty well.</p>
<p>We're not going anyplace special, just hanging around. Probably take tank out on a few hikes and see if likes to swim. Should be fun the first time he hits the water.</p>

<p>Good morning!  I haven't run in a week.  No reason other than I am just too damn tired.  I did do a strength workout and power clean yesterday so that counts for something (at least in my book it does).  Busy weekend ahead with a baseball tourney.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Suds - Yay for vacation!  I bet Tank is going to love swimming.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Nicole - Sounds like you have a good plan in place.  Good luck with the new, used car. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>sb - I hope everything is ok with your friends.  Sounds like you have a busy day on tap.  Good luck fitting it all in.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Well, person #2 is quitting next week.  It's slowly becoming a ghost town in here.  I need to get my butt in gear and start applying.  I wanted to wait until the kids were back in school and I had more time but I don't think I can last that long.</p>

<p>Yay for Friday!  This week went by pretty fast.  I will try to run a few miles today.  I'm not really feeling all that motivated, but I'm pretty sure I won't be running tomorrow.  We've got a baseball tournament and a bridal shower to go to.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Suds-You better take some video of Tank's first swim!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Staci-I hope everything is ok with your friends.  Enjoy your rest day and good luck with all those miles this weekend!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Nic-It sounds like dh's last car definitely gave him his money's worth!  What is he going to get this time?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Andi-Sorry about the work drama.  I hope you are able to find something you really like soon.</p>

<p>Well - we have a new car and I am officially DH's "Sugar Momma"!  LOL!!  The way I have my business account set up, I am the only one who can write checks (I'm the only owner) so I had to write the check.  DH felt somewhat awkard (as he normally handles all the money issues) so he told the dealer I was his sugar momma!!  But now he is the proud owner of a new/used 2004 Volvo V70.  He is VERY excited!!!  He plans to drive this one into the ground too!! LOL!!</p>

<p>Sudsy - Tahiri (our female pup) lost all 4 of her baby canine teeth today!!!  DH found one on the floor and their girls are enthralled.  Poor dog looks hilarious though!! LOL!!</p>
