we spent the night in but all in all if was a nice evening. eric grilled up ribs on the big green egg! we had run out of charcoal probably a month or more ago and we just yesterday got some so we were all loving the return of the egg!
then eric and i stayed up until about 1030 drinking lemon drops which were damn tasty. i could have drank a ton more of them but was worried about getting sick, so i stuck to two.
today is the last day of my first week of official training! I'd say that first week went pretty well after the extreme soreness wore off. now only like 40 more left until race day! I was thinking of that last night - its going to be like waiting through a pregnancy! oh the misery but the excitement and preparation at the same time!
I am still off of work for 4 more days if you include today. i hate to say it but we are going nuts. its too cold and wet to be outside now that the snow is gone, we don't want to spend money, we don't want to let the kids watch tv or play sack people, so we are having a time of it.
we did take the kids to see the movie Bolt. I wasn't too into it but wound up actually liking it. It did have some parts in it that were quite scary and then at the end i couldn't believe it! spoiler here - Penny almost dies in a fire! She is all passed out due to smoke inhalation and Bolt curls up next to her and they are getting ready to just die. WHAT? you can't put that in a kids movie???? I was horrified especially since seamus keeps talking lately about how our house hasn't ever caught on fire and stop drop and roll and she got all worried while reading Spider Saves Christmas when Lady Bug's xmas cookies catch on fire in the oven and Spider has to put out the fire with the boxes of water he got his friends for xmas. uuugh. other then that, it was a pretty good movie.
i have no resolutions this year. i think last year i was going to floss "most" days of the week and that was it, but i think that didn't last very long, i can't remember.
i do have big goals for the year. i need to look back to jan 08 and see if i can find my goals and see if i met them. i did have a pretty great 2008 though. the kids are awesome and continue with their awesomeness every day. eric is great and i am very lucky to be married to him. i am very fortunate that my family is all safe and healthy and that i have a good job.
as for 2009, I will quote seamus here - what's gonna happen?
