Zorbs: there are many more school lunch regulations that public schools must follow. Like offering veggies and fruit at every meal, etc and that each kid must take a serving of everything they offer even if they through it away. Yesterday was chicken nuggets and broccoli and fruit. The high schoolers have more options like salad bar every day.

RR: just over 5m today with 2m of hill repeats - a 1min climb and jog back x8. Phew, after 2m w/u that was beasty. Good though. I had that lactic acid build up in my forearms again. crazy! And i wore my tiny shorts with bra top (which matched my sayonaras), and yep, they are tiny which a) makes me run faster and b) makes me pretend I am a pro athlete. Of course there were 6 workmen outside my house when I got back and I completely died of embarrassment. I wanted to shout "I'm a mom, I'm a mom".

NRR: had that recurrent dream about ex-coworker. I was feeding him a juicy fig. wtf.

NRR2: going to lrs to get racing flats today. am excited. crafts with DS. trying symmetry painting - as in finger paints and then fold paper. I am going to make a book with all his little projects and art in it.

TR: has nasty chafe from sitter yesterday from running around in a wet swim diaper and shorts - rubbed raw. Two strikes lady (the sunburn before). Three strikes and you're gone. She is superb otherwise.

FR: pork tenderloin. Onto high protein and veggie part of diet. 2 days. I find these two days the hardest. I still keep in enduromax and have a slice of sprouted grain toast for b-fast.

Zorbs:  I took it a step further, I showed it to him and if I peed I got one first   Then he was all about wanting one for himself.

Leela:  How awesome is that!  DH will never run with me, even when I try and run at his pace - he tries to beat me.

Bermy:  Ugh, what is wrong with people...It is like no one has any common sense anymore.  Sunscreens and changing wet diapers seem like something you wouldn't have tell someone to do.

Ok, back to page one.

RR#2 - had an errand to do in a city about 1/2 an hour away.  There is an AMAZING paved path that winds through a golf course and beside a river.  Did 6.5miles with the stroller.  It was so nice.  Need to slow down a bit though.
NRR#2 - Dentist just said "let me know when you are ready and we will do the implant"  looks like that is the best option but it is the most costly.  Oh, and I have to go back in two weeks to have a few fillings replaced on the other side of my mouth.  I think I am fully funding my dentist's retirement.

cx2 - glad C had a successful day at daycare.  I bet she eats food at daycare.  I am always amazed at what my kids eat when they go places.  I don't know if it is the peer pressure of watching other kids eat or what, but I wish they'd eat like that at home.

arm - hope that butt pain gets figured out.  Love that DD was so popular!  what's up w. DH?

mzm - OH NO!!  Were you running when you hurt that knee??  That sounds so painful.  Glad you survived kindergarten!!

becky - glad that C loves the desk.  Did you put it in his room or somewhere else?

ernie - did you brave the pool?  Seems too cold to me.  Glad DD was happy to be back at the community centre.  DD hasn't had much stroller time for a while so I was nervous about it.  She brought a snack and then I would play games with her. - count the birds, animal sounds, do you see the golfers.....etc

CA - glad the house looks promising.  I can't believe you have to go back to work already, how sad!!  That time flew for me, I can't imagine how fast it went for you!  Hope you can get that meal plan in order, so much less stress that way!

leela - glad you are posting on here.  I love hearing about your training.  You include great detail, plus we are training for the same thing - so excited!!  Glad DH is on board w. the pace.  Will you train together a lot too?  Let me know what you think of the squash!!

spike - that would be an awesome raise, but adding two hours onto the work day would be tough!  Nice run this morning - glad Joan had some options for you.  I am totally on the look out for portapotties now - DH is looking for them for me too.  RG is a great coach!!  Having a coach is so motivating too!

My parents bought the house!! YAY!

Bermy - sounds like my run yesterday, hard and challenging, but I love hills for that! lol on the coworker dream! on the baby chafe, I hope she doesn't strike again!

RG - I'm loving this fall weather, and the paths smell so good w/ the leaves starting to change. Awesome having DH around for dinner!

zorbs - go B on the potty!!! Hope the cramps mean no headache! I still haven't had an AF post O, but think I won't w/ my IUD (fingers crossed).

r-eh - booo to the dentist! Do you have dental coverage? Nice job on the run!!

cx2 - I think it's pretty normal for kids to eat more at daycare/ away from home. yuck on the bacon, that's something my dh would do. He often makes coffee as I'm going to bed, I always sleep w/ the door shut so the smells don't bug me in my sleep.

arm - hope the chiro helps! Sounds like it might be piriformis syndrome? roll your butt w/ a tennis ball, and sit on an ice pack - that always helps mine.

mzm - ouch on the knee!! I hope it and your hip feel better asap!

becky - booo, hope you feel better. nice job on the speech therapy c!!

ernie - mmm trout!! I hope you get to swim!

leela - I agree, love having you post your details here, especially since I'm just a month behind in marathon training, and am hoping to do a BQ try next spring. Mmm stuffed squash! i'm excited for fall cooking!

spike - yay for a porta pottie!! I totally know every bathroom on every route I run, and don't go out w/o a plan. Good luck w the job.

r-eh - they'll be about 40 minutes away, which is a nice distance, close enough to see often but not to drop in unannounced
