Got bunches and oodles and tons of stuff done today.
I remember several years ago, I was working with one of my clients whose growing business was going through some financial difficulties. Their credit was fully extended, they had a huge house with a huge yard in the expensive part of town and they sent their children to a private Christian school. We were discussing ways to lower their expenses and I had mentioned that maybe she should put her children in public school (as they lived ...

Sh!t. I got up at 5:00AM, went to the park. It was awesome in the dark with all the noises of the critters. Got two minutes into my run and stepped into a sink hole I couldn't see. Hurt my right knee (which is weaker than my left, anyway). F__k! I thought I'd try to run when I got home thinking the smoother surface would be okay. Not!
I'm very upset.
New rule to add to the collection: Don't run in the park in the dark on uneven surfaces.
We go to orientation at the kiddo...

Rest days are fantastic. It felt good to sleep until 6AM and cuddle with prince charming until 6:30.

Feeling very tired today, but not sick.Something good came out of the fitness tests on Saturday. Between the guy who did the testing, his manager, and myself, we managed to convince my prince charming that he would benefit a LOT from personal training. He decided to postpone the purchase of his new computer and get the training, instead. I was shocked!!! But, very happy. He has horrible posture, no core strength, isn't very flexible, and has some muscle imbalance in his legs that make...
