more catchup

Saturday, June 23, 2007

Sienna and I started the day just fine. I let her use the computer for hours playing the music nice & loud etc, while I moved the furniture, books and magazines around in the bedroom, cleaned tons and threw out more tons.It looks great- and is more functional now, with my large desk near the bed and CJ’s Thomas bed is where the desk was. (Which he never sleeps in up here anymore, but doesn’t want me to give it away just yet!) Now I have all my medical books & magazines, etc right near me :) To broaden the theory that I’m indeed crazy, I also have another much smaller desk for devotional times (ha!) and a table for triathlon-related stuff.

Natalie was thrilled to go to her friends house to swim,had an awesome time.

CJ had no assignments today from me & got to run around outside with Chris as he did yardwork and mowed.

But all good things lately seem to fade fast, and we ended the afternoon on pretty bad terms. Somethings gotta give.

1h 6.30 miles 9m 31s /mile


6.3 miles in about 1 hour tonight, after 1.3 mile walk. Nice & cool outside. I think the wine cooler actually helped me!

    Sienna is now driving every day (with me in the passenger seat, praying heftily) -I let her drive the minivan to Gram’s everyday so she can take care of her for a few hours in the afternoons: her first real "job".

    29m 3.00 miles 9m 40s /mile

    3 mile run with virtually no leg power today- very fatigued.

    Here’s a good one of CJ running :)

    I’m working tonight, probably quite late. YUP. Went in at 6:30pm and didn’t leave until about 1am. (So much for 7-11!). It was a busy, crazy night, plus lots of things went wrong, plus the on call MD had to be called several times. etc. I wasn’t done with meds and treatments until after 11:20. Wow. I felt pretty stressed out, but I do realize that a lot of it has to do with pmdd. I hope Sunday night is better.

    Tomorrow i will be very pleased if I can try doing part of the DCClassic 1/2 Marathon route. I really need to get in gear for Sept :)

Wow: the last day of school! On the verge of tears much of today. Will miss CJ’s school. He DID get the teacher I was hoping he’d be assigned to for third grade, though :) He cried on the way home, though, because his friend won’t be in his class. He is going to have a real fresh start, with totally new classmates.

Natalie is also happy with her assigned 5th grade teacher.This is the first year that any one of them will have a male teacher! I am preparing their work (and play!) for the summer, ordered some summer bridge workbooks thru Amazon :)

We were at Gram’s again today- and it was much quieter. Just her and I (after my swim, and I cleaned out my swim bag stuff & washed there.) Then after Sienna’ Chem exam, she went over there. I was hectically trying to get both nat & cj’s teachers gifts together (and their principals), THEN getting Sienna to drop her off at Gram’s, then running home to remove my sweaty old navy tank (!), and getting to CJ’s birthday party (for the summer kids), then getting natalie….out of breath just typing it! It was really sweet, because I took CJ woth me to get Nat, and we were lat, but just in time to join in the "bus send off" where some of the parents & all the teachers waved and cheered all the kids/buses leaving for summer vacation. It was fun and noisy :) I got to give Nat’s teacher her gift AND CJ met his new teacher.

1500 yards in 40- 750 pull, 250 breast, 300 crawl/free, bilateral breathing, 200 backstroke. a good hard swim PM: 12.56 mile ride in 45 min. It felt a little tougher tonight as I’m pretty tired- had a VERY non-stop day. MUST run tomorrow- and only run!!!

40m 1500.00 yards 2m 40s /100 yards

Sienna had a final exam to day, and then got to hang out with Brooke again. So glad those two cousins got to spend lots of time together :) The little ones are excited- their last day of school is tomorrow!!! I spent the day baking (I brought all my stuff to Gram’s)~ Strawberry Rhubarb pie, brownies, and of course banana bars. The two latter are for CJ’s "birthday party" tomorrow- for all the kids that have summer birthdays, they are never left out- they have a party all their own :) So tomorrow should be fun- and I can guarantee I am going to cry like a baby.
