Waiting in the car in the rain
for Sarah to come out of the store. Gotta be ready to spring into action and help her with the groceries so she doesn't get too wet.

First day of school
The girls had their first official day at preschool today. It went even better than expected. The teacher's assistant said the girls did great and it was like they'd been there before. I think that's a good sign of the socialization they've had already. They wanted to stay longer. They go back on Thursday.

Another butt-kicking workout
Had another butt-kicking at the gym today. Wow, Suzanne knows how to pick 'em. Honestly, haven't felt this tired (or healthy) since high school sports. Good news is the workouts only last 30 minutes instead of hours of practice. Bad news is I am paying someone to treat me this way. Good news (always end on an up) is that Sarah gave me a compliment AND I'm actually seeing the changes in my body. Up until now, I've been working on convincing myself that I'm getting slimmer. People tell me this - friends, family, people at the gym. But my self-image has been "funny, fat, kid-at-heart" for so long that it takes time to change. This last week, I can visibly see that my mid- section is smaller. My brain doesn't half to convince my eyes that I'm slimmer. My eyes see it in the mirror. This is a small, but significant change. Life is good...

The girls' first theater movie
We are at the Regal theater in Auburn about to watch The Princess and the Frog. This will be the girls' first theater movie. I'll let you know if it is a good one.

Big race, small snafu! Wow, that was fast.
It's over. I can't believe it! Unofficial team time 4:02, but there was a snafu with my relay exchange (my fault). Cost us 10 mind. I think my time averaged 9:30/mile, so I accomplished my goal. Had a GREAT time!

Tomorrow is a big day - California International Marathon
I can hardly wait!! even though I'm going to sleep about 45 mins later than I hoped, tomorrow can't come quickly enough. SUPER excited to be running a leg of the CIM, and doing it with folks from ProActive in Auburn. It also gives me a sense of pleasure an accomplishment to know that my excitement in running transfered so well to my friend, Darryl. It is cool to see what he is accomplishing, too. I'll report in tomorrow. Wish me good speed. Goal is <10 min/mile.
