Good luck.  They are all sold out down my way.  My parents are on the hunt for one too. 

Thanks, Kathy... we'll look into it!

Just had to head out for a meeting across town... what a CR@Ptastic day!  I mean, it's just downright depressing out there.  I absolutely cannot wait for this (3-day) weekend... if the weather people even think about changing the forecast for this weekend, well... I... just... might...

A friend founds some pumps in Mass.  He bought 3- one for us, himself and a mutual friend.  I think the water is about another inch higher. Yikes. Got to figure out if we need to turn off the gas to the hot water heater.  The furnace is up on blocks and still dry so far.

This might need to count as a my final "laps" of the month!!!

Yeah!  Glad you got your hands on a pump.  Hope you get that water out quick.

It's still raining.  Boo.  I had to cancel Cole's OT appointment.  All the roads I need to use to get there are partially closed.  Oh well, I really didn't want to drag everyone out in this mess again anyway.  Ick!  So, I'll stay in and make some dinner then watch UCONN crush Florida State.  Like FSU has a chance!

Hey team I got my run in today, I am at 101% for my run at 100% for both bike and swim and 150 for my strength! I will get one more bike and swim in tomorrow. Let's make sure we update the spreadsheet everyone! Have a great night all!

I'm feeling better today, and got in a couple of trainer rides to get me close to my bike goal.  I'll try for another trainer ride tomorrow morning, as well as a lifting session after work.  That should put me at 100% for my lifting goal, and closer to 100 for biking. 

Got another trainer ride in tonight.  I'm now at 100% or more for 3 of my 4 goals.  The only wild card is my weigh in tomorrow.  I'm going to be dreaming skinny thoughts tonight!

Row, row, row your boat.....

No school for the kiddos again today.  It sure is a mess here.  Another busted swim day for me due to mother nature.  She has it out for me.

We got 10 inches of rain in our town.  That is a lot of rain.

Kathy, how's your house?

Kathy/Erica,
You guys are really getting pounded.  We finally got some sunshine this morning!  Looks like we're all going to dry out for the next bunch of days.  Good luck with your basements... Hope there's no damage.
Bill

Your rain is coming to us next week.  Currently, we are having a sunny, sunny week with way above seasonal temps.  Fingers crossed it lasts into the weekend like they're calling for.

In other news...did my final swim last night.  Will do my final strength tonight - might shake it up with some pilates...Then I'll be 100% for both goals.

Everyone did really well.  It was a fun group.  Thanks for the challenge, Dee.

Because of my late night activities, I wasn't able to get up for my morning run, so I have to go to the Y at lunchtime for a double workout... 3.5 mile run followed by a 1900 yard swim.  Then I'll be 100% or better across the board.  Nothing like waiting until the last minute!

Good morning!

I hope that it's starting to dry out in New England!

I did my last run and am at 100% for running, 102% overall.

Oh, gross!!!

I was up most of the night too, partly due to my wonderful cat.  She was downstairs meowing all night though.  My husband was away for the night and I couldn't stop wondering what he was meowing about...  My imagination runs wild when I'm home alone with the kids at night!

It's a beautiful day out today, so I decided to put off my biking until after work so I can do it outdoors.  If I start early enough and can get back before it starts getting too dark, I may be able to pull off pretty close to 100% on my biking. 

Of course, then I don't know if I can get a 45 min strength workout in after that.  We'll see!

Talk about waiting until the last minute

Good afternoon from the water park that is Rhode Island!

This morning the pump was still running but making no headway in the 5 inches of water in the basement.  At least it wasn't any higher!  Then while we were reading the paper we heard a snap crackle pop and smelled the distinctive odor to an electrical short/fire coming from the basement.  Oh My!  Evacuated the house and the fire department came.  Had to shut off all the power.  We got the electrician here by 11 and he confirmed that the electric baseboard heaters in the basement had shorted out.  We were able to get just that circuit shut off and put the electricity back on to the rest of the house.  One of our friends has their basement all pumped out so now we have their pump going too.
