Well, well, well... look who is BACK!!!!!!!!!  OK, my debut as a race director is over and I feel as though I might be able to have a BT life again

I wish I had something highly entertaining to share but for now you'll have to live with I simple howdy hi.

MILA!!!  Did you use your whip in a directorial position?

Sounds like a heck of a Saturday was had by all.

Of course... I never leave home without Naughty Janet .

Proud mom moment here. My daughters productions of Annie was wonderful!  Hard to believe it was all middle school kids (they didn't have enough guys try out though so FDR and the radio announcer were played by teachers)

Yay!!  Good for the girls and the proud mom .

A little kid in the neighborhood near mine asked me how you got a bike like mine--he even referred to my bike as sweet (cute kid unfortunately neither he nor any of his friends riding with him were wearing helmets which just makes my blood boil cause they were roughly age 6-11 years old)

See, Judi??!!  Sweeeetttt bike!  You should love it more .

enders_shadow - 2008-04-12 2:38 PM Race report posted...Here I did leave out my first thought (although I'll share it with Nibbs)...I think riding hills gives me temporary Tourette's syndrome (not to make light of folks that do suffer this...) but holy cow - I was making up nursery rhymes with swear words in them.

Heh .  I believe I have had some "discussions" with myself/the hills/my bike on some brutal courses around here! 

But WAIT, Kristen!!!!!  All that time in hilly Atlanta and you didn't learn to love the hills?!  I'm so confused.  Of course, I can't learn to love swimming and running so I really have no room to talk.  I'm going to go read your RR, so I'll shut up now.  Carry on.

I just pulled myself out of the April Challenge. My foot is really bothering me and even though the doc said I could walk the race this weekend, I am having second thoughts. Not sure if the set back would be worth it (or the pain, and yes, I am still in major pain). I AM BUMMED!

Maybe I can just stay in the pool 24 hours a day. Then I never have to put any weight on this damn foot.

That sucks!  I'm sorry you are still in pain, but pulling out of the challenge is probably the best idea so that you can take it easy and heal.

You're probably better off not doing the race.  It sucks, but it will be better for you in the long run.  I know how much it sucks.

Morning Nibbs!

I just checked the pollen count for my area and it is at "very high".  Ugh.  I hate when the tree pollen is everywhere and you can see it in the air.  It makes me miserable.

Morning, Nibbs!

Went to church, went grocery shopping, and ran a couple of errands. Rest day - although I'm envious of everyone I see running today...I hate to rest.

The pollen is something here - you'd think the rain yesterday would have helped, but our cars are all yellow again already. Luckily it doesn't bother me, but it drives Sugar Daddy & Elder Monkey up the wall.

Have a good day - I'm sure I'll be back later.

I have had some windows open between rain showers lately...when I dusted the livingroom yesterday there was a ton of pollen in there!  My car had nothing on it Friday moning, by the time I got out of work in the afternoon it was also covered.  A brown car turned yellow (gross)

Sorry to hear that your foot is still bothering you.

Yes, we give you permission to live in the pool until it's better. Just think how many laps you'll get done. Of course, you'll look a bit pruney after awhile, but....

Did the doctor give you any info other than not to run on it right now? Hope it's better soon!

And everyone else... did y'all get the Costco coupons for Zyrtec allergy this month? Yep, picked mine up this morning.

Oh and Kendra - Worst case scenario for the weekend.... you still have fun on a girls out trip, right?  You're welcome to hang with me and the kiddo's at the finish line.

Gorgeous, Beth - especially the pretty one in the middle.

Miss Sunshine is doing fine...oddly enough, the only thing that is sore on me is one shoulder - I assume from struggling to keep my bike in the wind? Ah - so I'm just laying around today watching the IM coverage and the Masters.

I love the color of your daughter's dress!! So glad it made it on time!

Race report is up and race is complete. DD birthday celebration is in progress. Took her to get her ears pierced. We will be having dinner with grandparents and opening presents tonight at 5:30. My race went great. It was cold, but sunny. I won!!! First Place Overall Female!! Before y'all get too excited, there were only 21 women racing. But hey, I'll take it. I was 19th overall out of men And women. Not too shabby!

Back from the OWS clinic.  The river was cold!  Did as well as I could, but I had to stop early.  Judi and I went to Starbucks after.  I was still cold even after sitting there for awhile and drinking coffee.  It was really interesting - have some good points on sighting and drafting in my log.

Brrrr! I'm cold just thinking about your OWS clinic!

I'll have to check out your log for tips

and thanks, she is quite beautiful if I do say so myself

so, would you have guessed which one is my daughter?  I don't think she really looks like me
