Is it just me or is anyone else thinking - "lets just get it going already!" I will be totally useless at anything I do this week because my mind will be completely focused on next Monday. I might as well not even bother going to work. Wink

I agree Danny, this will be a tough week to get anything done that requires concentration. Unfortunately for me, it's shaping up to be a busy week at work. I hope they aren't expecting much... Wink

See you at the Pour House on Friday? I plan on being there around 12:00 for a bite to eat before heading over for our volunteer assignments. Anyone else? If so, let's swap phone #'s. So is everyone ready to do this? It is always such an awesome weekend!

My husband and I will be there. Early last week, I had some wonderful runs, and I was going to post this whole thing about how amazing it is that marathon training always seems to work. Until last Thursday, when I had one of my worst runs yet, followed by a miserable 12-miler on Sunday that just felt like I had no shocks, no energy. Ugh. Now I"m crazy nervous about Monday. Can't believe it's coming up so soon.

Doug, I took down your cell #, thanks. You may want to edit your post to get rid of it, for privacy reasons. See you soon!
