Robin commented this morning about a pace car for for the Talladega 500. This made me think of my work truck. This truck is a fantastic conversation piece at business networking events. I have a lot of fun with it. It’s really funny when people slow down on the interstate because they believe that this [...]

Went to Sams today and picked up a few items. We got some organic mixed greens, tomatoes, yogurt, salad dressing, watermelon, salsa, sirloin patties, chicken patties, and raspberries. They were really good deals and most of it is really healthy. The salad dressing is really tasty. I just have to control my portions. It was [...]

I woke up at 5:45 and did my 18 laps this morning. I was so exhausted from lack of sleep that I caught myself a few times falling asleep in the pool when I rested. After swimming I went in to work. I headed home at 2:30. At home I took a nap from 3:30 [...]

I will be swimming in the mornings starting in the morning. My schedule is too unpredictable to “plan” on swimming on Mon/Wed/Fri afternoons. The pool opens at 6:30am, so I will knock swimming out before work. This week is flying by. I couldn’t swim this afternoon because of work, but I did workout and do [...]

I couldn’t make it to the pool today because of work. I know I said that I would schedule calls around my exercise, but I can’t leave a site half way through a service call to swim. So, instead of swimming, I walked at home for 15 min. I also was able to walk a [...]
