Picture Book

Here's a small glimpse of what I have been up to lately.
Last weekend I decided to get "crafty" and decorated a cork board to hang in my new office. The walls are boring grey/white and there is nothing colorful or exciting on them, yet.
Before:
After I added a few things - of course most of it is Molly, Kate, or Bennett related:
I am proud of my rare attempt at being crafty. The side and top green ribbon hides magnetic strips, so I do not have to poke hole in my pictures. I also figured out a way to bring PINK into my office without having to paint an entire wall that color...although I still want that...just don't think it would be approved.

Now, for yesterday's ride. We rode in Galveston down to Surfside Beach and back and then some. We were never more than a few hundred yards from the water and parts of it were just beautiful. The road to Surfside was washed out in Hurricane Ike, but it was just recently repaired and it is awesome. Ike made the beach a bit bigger, so in some places the road literally goes straight through the beach, with sand on either side...and not a single building for miles. I only stopped once, on the San Luis Pass, to take pictures, but should have taken more. It really was a pretty morning...that quickly turned into a hot, hot, somewhat windy day.

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...
