It’s the Salem Witch trial part deux over here as the cow continues to hang from the tree out back.  Broken back, snapped neck, udder in tact.  But hey it’s been a busy weekend around these parts and its good for the soul to be ‘wt’ once in a while.    We celebrated Kristina Palooza on Saturday at our house, I had a blast - I hope everyone else did too.  I love throwing parties, I think the kids definitely had fun playing together.  I feel bad because we have nothing kid in our house, except Harry.  So unless they are into playing with him the whole time, there’s not much to do.  But they all marched in with their toys, jammies, special occasion shoes and proceeded to play all night long.  Contagious giggles and big smiles.   Lots of fun!

Sunday came too early.  It was a study day for me, workout day for BJ and dog dayz day for the kids.  Over to Scott Carpenter with the kids, it’s so freaking fun.  Lhasa is the social one, Harry is all ball.   We go every year, it’s a tradition in this house. Before and after dog dayz I studied, napped and studied.  So much more to go, the next two weeks I’m going to be b’s to the w.  I’ll get through it, no problem just have to focus and work hard.

Monday morning BJ and I headed over to the res for our long runs, I had 13.5 and BJ 23.  We’ve been doing our Monday runs together (kind of, not really) but it’s still cool to see him out there when he’s lapping me.  Today I did the Backroads 1/2 course, I really love that course.  I can’t wait to do it again, I’m going to try and break 10min miles.  Yikes, we’ll see….I’ll do my best.  I know that’s nothing for so many people but for me it will be a challenge.  But you have to go for both, quality and quantity.  I know that the quality of my run will far surpass my last BB half and I”m assuming as a result of that my time will be better as well.  We’ll see, I have so much more experience now.

Tomorrow will bring a small swim, big day in my practice and studying in between.  Fired up to jump back into life but man has two days of naps treated me nicely.
