No Mono

So that's the good news - I don't have mono this time around. The bad news is I'm pretty sure my bronchitis is viral as it isn't so much responding to the antibiotics. So that means at least another week or so of feeling blah and not breathing normally. That is better than mono though, so I guess I have to take it!

I did do a semi-long run Saturday and slowed way down and actually felt great, so that is promising. Friday night we had a baby shower for Lisa which was lots of fun. I was in charge of dessert and made brownies with white chocolate/cream cheese icing, strawberry and chocolate cupcakes, and chocolate chip cookies. Yum.
Saturday night my sister's family came to stay with me to pick up Molly from camp on Sunday. It is a family affair for us now - even my parents go - because my sister and I grew up at the same camp. It is also the only way my dad will ever see us on Father's day. Kate signed up to go next year and was so excited as we made the last turn down the 5 mile road to camp that she could barely contain herself. I don't think she wiped the grin off her face all day! I wish big kids (me) could still go to camp!

When I got back to Houston, Miranda had friends over to cook out by her pool. We had quite the spread of food and it was the perfect way to end the weekend.

Of course yesterday I was toast by 4pm and scratched all workout plans and just went to bed instead. Oh the joys of being sick.

That's totally what's missing in our grown up lives: summer camp.

I'm gonna take my summer camp theme with me to CdA.

I did camp all the way up til my Sr. year in high school and then I went back after I graduated and was a camp counselor.

Way fun!!!

I'm glad to hear it isn't mono, still crummy to be sick though. Looks like you aren't letting yourself miss much though. :)

Ironman in verse

This is what I wrote and secretly put under everyone's doors tonight: The big day is almost here! Long it will be, but have no fear. You have put in miles and miles And will finish amidst numerous smiles. The hard work is over and done. Now is the time for nothing but fun. May your spirits be high throughout the day, And may nothing come along to stand in your way. Ironman is as much about the journey as the destination, And you will be rewarded for all of your determination. Hand-in-hand we will all jump in, Eagerly treading water as we wait to begin. At 7am the cannon will blast But be sure not to go out too fast. The cool water will run over your face, As you are now committed to the race. The Rural Bridge will seem so far away But keep those negative thoughts at bay. Once you turn around and head west To the Mill Ave. Bridge you go, trying your best. 2.4 miles will be over before you know it, And you will start to realize your thoughts of Iron are truly legit. On to the bike, f...

Getting To Know You

Alright, time for a little "comment love" - a term used in the blogging world meaning, quite simply, "leave a comment!" I can see I have readers from all over the world (look at the little map a little way down on the right), obviously with the highest concentration being from this area, but I don't know who you are! (Most of you at least!). I'd love to know a little about who is reading my blog, what you like what you don't like, where you are from, etc. Anyone can comment at any time - you don't have to have a blogger or google profile. Just click on the "x comments" link below any post (x is the number of existing comments on any one post), then a box will pop up letting you type the comment. If you have a google/blogger profile you can use that, but if not, you can just click "anonymous", but be sure to sign your name or nickname or whatever with your comment. P.S. If you don't want to tell me much about yourself, or I al...
