I'm working today. Kit had to work so I signed up in my dept. I hope it's quiet today. No one likes spending a holiday in the hospital.

Have fun kids and stay safe.

isn't this a good day for getting drunk and breaking bones?

Isn't Memorial weekend #2 for DUI's (just behind New Years?)

Apparently it's a good day for stabbing bicyclists.

No mention of the guy being drunk. But his father narc'ed him out.

Drifting into thanks.

Four years ago, I started riding a bike and soon thereafter, I found TE. With your encouragement and vast knowledge, I slowly learned the ropes and you were always hear to answer my constant questions. Then two years ago, I began to dabble in triathlon and again, the ladies of TE were there with knowledge, enthusiasm, and encouragement. On Sunday, I'm going to do my first Half Iron triathlon. I truly would not be doing this race if it wasn't for all of you, so thanks to you all!

I'll be thinking about you. Let us know how it turns out.

Good luck kelownagirl! How exciting.

Gratitude meditation totally floated me through my first marathon last month. So IMO you're starting out on the right foot.

Found out yesterday that my orthopedist called in more orders for continuation of PT for my knee, and I'm actually happy about it. Does that make me a sick puppy?

I've tried to do my exercises at home these past two weeks, but it just isn't the same as going to the clinic and having Tony reminding you what to do next. That and I miss starting with those wonderful warm heating pads.

I slept 'til noon today! I have my licensing exams Monday and Tuesday, hope I'll be awake for those

Monday is Site Design and Tuesday is Grading & Drainage.

My poor calculator that I've had since high school has chosen this week to short out. I took it to the shop and it's definitely not the batteries

Sentimental value aside, I guess it was time for a new one!

I'm really trying to be good about not taking two showers in one day. (Even though I live in one of the places where water is still plentiful, it's still a waste of energy, and no I am NOT going to shower in unheated 55°F water.)

But if I take an evening shower, I just can't STAND myself by noon the next day. Yucky and crusty and greazy, ewwwwwww. So if I have an evening ride or gym class, it's either shower in the morning and go to bed sweaty, or shower late and be gross all day the next day. Ugh.

Run through the sprinklers like we did when we were kids? That way your grass is watered and you're rinsed!

I wouldn't go to bed sweaty, I'd take the shower. You could compromise - take a "navy" shower - water on, get wet, water off, suds up, water back on for the rinse cycle.

How about just a rinse off in the evening?
