What are you doing right now?

[severine]

Back from the gym. Cold has moved into my chest and I feel like crap. Still, I managed 18 consecutive minutes of running on the treadmill; 43 min total between the elliptical and treadmill and 488 calories burned. Wish I could go back to bed but one of my kids is up.

It was very tempting to turn the alarm off and go back to sleep at 5:10 this AM, but I know I NEED to do this. And I already skipped one workout this week (though I suppose walking around NYC all day this Saturday will help make up for it). My race is coming up and I need to be consistent. And I need this to de-stress. The kids have been driving me nuts.

Good luck today, Warp! You're doing great!

Right now... I'm going to take it easy. I already went 3.57 miles so I think I can relax with a book for a bit. That is, as long as the kids don't do anything to raise my blood pressure. They really love pushing my buttons when I have no voice. I should also be researching what we'll do on Saturday in the city to kill time before the show but I need to get off the computer for a bit.

Up early, did sprint/interval work for a half hour; now at the dealership dumping more money into my company's POS Subaru.

Trying to stay awake without the aid of coffee. I think it's going to be a coffee morning.

For me, EVERY morning is a coffee morning...

My digestive system does not like coffee. Otherwise, I would drink it every day, too.

Heading out to run errands.

Thinking about buying a Lotto ticket tonight as I just had back 2 back two of my habitual complainer/the glass is 1/2 empty/not happy unless their unhappy patients leave the office happy!

Mrs Root just informed me that in October, she's going to China for 2-3 weeks...possibly longer for a new project at work. I'm not quite sure how I feel about this.

That is a double edge sword. Bachelor pad for a few weeks.... but that gets old after a day or two.

Yeah...I'll probably love it into the 1st weekend, then I'll get bored out of my mind every night.

I'm sensing LOTS of Root Mtb reports and Orion reports intermixed with Blackbeary Wheats stories in October

Plus, if there is a bright side to this trip, you WILL have a couple of guilt free football watching weekends (small condolensce for lack of Mrs. Root presence)

Kids or no kids?

Before kids, if my spouse went on long trips, I'd get bored and lonely...with kids, I get tired and stressed, although less now because they are older and (slightly) more self-sufficient.

I'll admit that my wife handles my trips much better than I do hers...

Looks like I might have to hit the office tomorrow. If I have to work a weekend day, it might as well be a rainy one...

 

[drjeff]

Counting down the minutes until the work day is done so i can hit the golf course and hopefully get 18 in before the rains come this afternoon

 

[Warp Daddy]

nice bright sunny day here , breakfast then my 10 o'clock gym cardio workout . Came down with some sinus related headache yesterday still got touchs of it yuk !

Hey Doc keep it on the short grass i sense another great score on your card today --HAVE PHUN

 

[severine]

Went to the gym, now I need to get ready to head out. Have to go close out a party, possibly stop by UCONN, and then meet a friend and her daughter for a playdate that may get moved to an indoor location. Sounds like the rain will be coming by this afternoon. Then tonight is my brother's 20th birthday gathering with my family.... Busy day!

Maybe....I tend to slack off on the Mtb rides once the leaves start to fall. Leaves suck for traction. I'd rather bike in mud.

Yup...we're DINKS (Double Income No KidS) :lol: She did a two week trip in Dallas, wasn't really a big deal. Somehow China feels different. She's really excited about it.
